No troop is good without a leader, but not all leaders will work well with your setup. We've compiled a list of all leaders and their abilities in Warcraft Rumble to make it easy for you to assemble your team.
All leader abilities in Warcraft Rumble
Every leader in Warcraft Rumble has a unique ability that will help the rest of your troops as they fight to defeat the Towers. Here's a list of all of their abilities so that you can figure out which one matches your playstyle best.
Alliance
The alliance is a fraction focused on defense, stealth, and spellcasting, and its leaders reflect that.
