What it looks like
The Dagger Duchess is a Legendary card that is unlocked from Electro Valley (Arena 11). It is a single-target, air-targeting, long-ranged tower troop with moderate hitpoints and low damage. She attacks up to 8 times with a very fast hit speed by throwing daggers, until she depletes all of them, after which she reloads one dagger at a time with a slower reload speed. She resembles a woman who has cyan eyes, blonde eyebrows, a small mole on her left cheek, and blonde hair in a bun, wields daggers, wears a team-colored headband, a team-colored dress trimmed with white, white leggings, team-colored shoes, and a gilded breastplate, and carries a dagger case.

- The Dagger Duchess doesn’t like being called a princess, attacking anyone who treats her like one. This is being referenced a few times: Her description says "Don't call her Princess", which is a reference to her saying "Don't call me a princess" in her reveal video. When attacking, she may say "It's duchess to you", "You're so dull", "Just sharpening my knives", “Don't call me a princess", or "Stay sharp!". In her Card Delivery event, the Dagger Duchess appears to have a rivalry with the Tower Princess.

- Despite starting at Level 9, it is possible to unlock her and use her from as low as Level 7.
