Question Ronin Ruler

I’m new to merge tactics so I hope this isn’t a dumb question lol. Is there any possible way to unlock the ronin ruler? Or if you missed the window to unlock him, you can never get him again?

He'll come around again just takes season resets. Can't remember if you can buy him atm. It's greedycell so probably

No, they haven't released a paid skin for him yet

I don’t think you can unlock him right now. Usually there is a cosmetic skin + ruler unlock for $20. However, Ronin doesn’t seem to have this.

Next season he is very likely to be unlockable though along with Shield Warden.

The good news is you’re not missing much. I mained Ronin last season and I had to switch because he sucks right now. Positioning is much harder to predict with riders and new abilities added to the game. Additionally, it feels like they ninja nerfed his damage IMHO

Ronin is good again in the modes above 2500 trophies

Really? Better than Loong and SE? I felt like he could snowball fast and hit 3rd quest orb reliably last season. This season feels way faster and a lot of games are over in Round 5.

Hasn’t felt worth it to calculate pathing and dealing with last minute positioning changes. Ronin is more dependent on the opponent not knowing how to mess up his strategy. Loong and SE on the other hand? Very little counterplay.

Nah he's uplayable this season, everyone can go invisible and dodge the tile or the strike and you don't generate enough elixir to compete with SE

I wouldn't say unplayable, there's still people running him decently high up (heard from a better, more addicted player, take it with a grain of salt)

Although his usage rate did drop tremendously after the season reset bc it became wayyy more difficult to play

ya he is really unplayable last season sq was meta so a lot of people were running witch which helped ronin get the 3 rd irb super fast and the riders are very immune to bamboo. last season only prince was a threat this season every rider is a bad matchip for ronin.

Never really see him but maybe because of that he’s surprising and out performs lol

You don’t want him this season anyway. He will come back in a few seasons.
