FAQ

How many units are in Candy Kingdom Defense?

14 base heroes plus 9 evolved forms. The summon pool has 9 regular heroes plus a Secret; the Lich, Ice King, Fire King and Baby Finn come from elsewhere.

How do you get Ice King and Fire King?

Their cards carry a LIMITED tag. The Premium Battle Pass's top reward is a shiny Fire King (official pass text), and one video says the free track gives Ice King at level 50 — the second part isn't confirmed.

How do you get Baby Finn?

Finish in the top 3 of the weekly Tournament (most damage to a tower).

Can you place the same hero more than once?

Yes, up to its limit (Finn and Jake 4, Epics 3, Mythics and evolutions 2, Secrets 1). Your team can only hold one of each hero.
