== Turn Order ==
Escherion -> Chaos Hydra -> Staff of Inversion
== Strategy ==
* Keep track of when Escherion inverts HP.
* Chaos Hydra should be defeated first, as Escherion's inversion can be used to your advantage.
* Due to Escherion inverting HP on rotation, aggressive play is encouraged, as it is optimal to have as little HP as possible before he inverts.
* As Escherion is only vulnerable when the Staff of Inversion is dead, and revives it every 5 turns, the staff should be defeated right after the turn he tries to revive it so you have more turns to damage Escherion.
