HistoryEdit

The Battlemage was the result of a "player rune design competition" and was released under the name "Elemental Warstaff". Because of the misleading nature of this name (many players expected this rune to be an equipment), it was renamed to "Elemental Battlemage" and later to "Battlemage" only. This makes the Battlemage the "Champion Formerly Known As The Champion Formerly Known As Elemental Warstaff" today.

Battlemage had some noteable appearances in Amplification Battlegroups with Dragon Skull as it was run by [I am not sure if I recall this correctly/please delete this if you cannot confirm it] Revenancer and MrKurtz.

AnalysisEdit

Recommended Builds: Deflect/Fire Immunity or Deflect/Magic Immunity

Rating: ***

The Battlemage is an extremely versatile unit. Although its damage output is moderate-low, it has effectively a 1-4 range, as well as 4 damage types. Whilst not an auto-deploy, it excels against the right opposition, and comes in at a handy 66 nora to boot.

I would recommend Fire Immunity in the current meta, along with Deflect. Remember, when fighting multiple enemies don't just click Deflect on yourself, but actually choose the high damage opponent you want it to trigger off. Magic Immunity is also a sound upgrade, due to the high number of Magic Damage champions that exist. However Fire has the benefit of being able to shut down an entire theme.
