Strategy

Lupa has a similar effect to the Lumin Lantern.png Lumin Lantern, but much more repeatable, as it activates any time they are hit by anything. They are also not exclusive to any Tribe, while the Lumin Lantern is restricted to the Clunkmasters. Most of the same strategies still apply, however. Try to have as few boostable effects as possible on the allied side so that Lupa can consistently boost one or two cards' effects, and be prepared with Snow.png Snow, Ink.png Ink, or high damage to neutralize problematic enemies. Cards with effects balanced around low values are especially powerful to boost, such as Tiny Tyko.png Tiny Tyko, Nom & Stompy.png Nom & Stompy, and the Heartmist Station.png Heartmist Station.

Numerical effects that can be modified are written in orange. For instance, Biji.png Biji has "Apply 3 Bom.png Bom" and "Increase by 1 when hit." Since only the first effect has an orange number, Lupa will only boost the base amount of Bom inflicted, not the amount of Bom gained when hit.

Since Lupa's Health.png health is extremely low, use any and all available sources of healing, health boosts, and Frost.png Frost so that they can take as many hits as possible. The player can also hit Lupa with their own Items like Slapcrackers.png Slapcrackers and Junk.png Junk. The Tyrant Bell in particular makes Items more viable for this purpose, since Cursed Crowns reduce a card's Attack.png attack by 1.

Keep an eye out for Charms that give numerical effects, such as the Bombskull Charm.png Bombskull Charm and Frog Charm.pngFrog Charm. If one of these Charms is attached to a card, that card becomes eligible for Lupa's buff. This can be detrimental if the player spreads out these effects across multiple cards, but it is extremely potent when piling as many effects as possible on a single card to boost.

While rare, a handful of enemies have negative effects that can be boosted, such as Winter Worm.png Winter Worms and Mega Mimik.png Mega Mimik. Among the Shademancers specifically, the Shades Leech.png Leech and Sheepopper.png Sheepopper are summoned to the enemy field and have effects that can be boosted. Not only does this make them even more effective, but each boost to Leech and Sheepopper is a boost not given to another enemy. Lupa can even boost the effects of Gobling.png Goblings to extract more Bling.png Blings from them.

Using the Blank Mask.png Blank Mask or Mime Charm.pngMime Charm, it is possible to have multiple copies of Lupa on the field (or multiple cards with Lupa's effect). Lupa's effect can be boosted, so multiple Lupas may boost each other and cause effects on both sides of the field to increase out of control.
