Midas Touch

When this troop kills an enemy, there is a 2% chance per stack to earn gold.

How players use it

Gold, merchants, re-rolls and the pit in 9 Kings Gold comes from 9 gold after every battle, 9 gold for every card thrown into the pit, and from cards such as Vault, Palace and Midas Touch. You spend it on merchant cards (30 gold, then 15 more for each extra card at the same visit), on re-rolls (10 gold, then 10 more each time) and on gold-cost cards such as Over-invest.

In the King of Greed's 9-card deck: a run as this king can start with it, and losing a battle offers cards from your own deck.
Loot after beating the King of Greed in battle when that king is one of your enemies.
Merchant: Jack of Magic (tomes and enchantments).
Joker mode: pick it for a custom deck.
