Notes With the right setup, Trolls can be played at or near free, AND overwhelm anything strength 8 or less, AND are fierce, AND discard a condition for free on play. There's altogether too much going on for a non-unique minion, so brakes have been pumped for the twilight discount, and the condition discard now requires you to give up one of your engines (and thus, make future Trolls more expensive as a sacrifice).

As a bit of compensation, the site requirement has been adjusted to "any site 5", meaning that it will work in any site format and not just King block.
