Executioner
Forest
Executioner is a Rare, Forest-trait troop costing 3 Elixir. His thrown axe travels out and boomerangs back, hitting every enemy in its path on both legs of the throw — a single attack that can land damage on multiple targets twice, making positioning behind the frontline especially punishing against Executioner.
