Season 10 of Merge Tactics brings the Forest Gang's Ronin as the new Ruler, a reworked Electric Trait, and a fresh batch of Equipment to master. Running from July 13th to September 1st, this season emphasizes positioning and strategic play. With Ronin's Double Edge ability and the returning Electric Trait's Lightning Strike, the board is shifting toward aggressive, high-damage plays.
Season Highlights
- New Ruler Ronin with the Double Edge ability
- Electric Trait returns with Lightning Strike
- 8 new Equipment pieces added from July 31st
- Season runs July 13th to September 1st
The Ronin Ruler
Ronin's Double Edge ability requires players to choose a tile before battle, then unleashes an X-shaped strike when enemies step on it, dealing double damage to the center tile. His Ruler Quest demands defeating 1, 3, then 5 enemy troops with this ability in a single game, rewarding aggressive positioning. Ronin also introduces two skins, Void Ronin and River Ronin, unlocked via Starsteel Road's Level-Up track, with no Ruler Cosmetics Shop purchase option this season.
Electric Trait Returns
The Electric Trait returns with a reworked Lightning Strike effect that activates after 6 seconds, stunning all enemies and dealing 10% max HP damage at 1/2 and 20% at 2/2. This trait synergizes with returning troops Electro Giant and Electro Wizard, who already apply electric effects. The stun and damage scaling make Electric comps a potent counter to clustered enemy formations.
New Equipment Drops
Eight new Equipment pieces arrive on July 31st, including Archer Queen's Cape (invisibility at low HP), Battle Healer's Blessing (healing on KO), and P.E.K.K.A's Sword (bonus damage and enemy HP theft). Controller Enchantment slows targets, Dragon Scale favors melee matchups, and Mage Wand turns the strongest enemy into a harmless rabbit. These items add strategic depth to combat encounters.
Meta Impact
Ronin's Double Edge and the Electric Trait's Lightning Strike favor aggressive, position-heavy comps that can control enemy movement and capitalize on stuns. Equipment like P.E.K.K.A's Sword and Mage Wand adds versatility for both damage and utility, making hybrid builds viable. Ronin's ability and Electric units can create powerful combos when positioned correctly. Prioritize positioning for Ronin's ability and integrate Electric units for maximum impact.
