Defensive Mode
==Summary==
*The Grand Warden Altar is basically a Barracks/Army Camp/Laboratory for the Grand Warden. When he isn't engaging in a battle, the Grand Warden can be seen pacing around his Altar or sleeping on top of it to regenerate hitpoints.
*If you wish to see the Grand Warden's targeting range, tap either on him or on his Altar.
*You need a free Builder and at least 1,000,000 Elixir to build the Altar. Doing so immediately summons the Grand Warden and enables him to be used at level 1.
*When under attack, the Grand Warden will quickly return to his Altar and turn to a statue that functions as a defense.

==Trivia==
*It was added with the 10th December 2015 Town Hall 11 update, and confirmed at Clash-Con 2015 on October 24th.
*It is the only Hero Altar to be purchased with regular Elixir.
*The Builder has his own animation for upgrading the Heroes' Altars. He forms some gold in a furnace near the Altar, and hits it with his hammer on an anvil, despite the Altar being made of stone.
*If you drop a Lightning Spell on the Altar that has the Grand Warden on defense (even without deploying any Troops), the Grand Warden will turn into a statue before the lightning hits and takes the Lightning Spell's damage (this is true even if the Grand Warden has not visibly reached his Altar). Since the statue takes the Grand Warden's hitpoints, it can't be destroyed with a single Lightning Spell.
**If the Grand Warden is not present, Lightning Spells can easily be used to destroy the Altar. If the Lightning Spell is upgraded to level 5 or higher, only one will be required to destroy it; two Lightning Spells are required otherwise.
*Because the Grand Warden statue behaves like a building, the defending Grand Warden is the subject of interactions unique among heroes:
**The defending Grand Warden statue cannot be damaged by Poison Spells, unlike the Barbarian King, Archer Queen and Royal Champion; Headhunters will not preferentially target him while in this form, nor will their attacks poison or do extra damage to him. Instead, it can be damaged by Earthquake Spells, and can be repaired by Battle Builders if their hut is weaponized and is close enough.
**The Altar is treated as a if the Grand Warden is able to defend and turns into a statue. As such, troops with favorite targets as defensive buildings such as Balloons or the Royal Champion will prioritize the Altar in this case.
*The appearance of the Grand Warden's statue does not vary with his skins.
*The Altar is emblazoned with a shield, representing that the Grand Warden is a support troop that shields your main kill force.
*This Hero Altar has only one layer vertically, just like the Royal Champion's.
*In the same update that changed the Grand Warden into a 3D model, the Altar changed in appearance. Most notably, the shield is turned 90 degrees to the left, and the groove surrounding the middle is removed.
*Despite the Grand Warden normally holding his tome in his left hand and his staff in his right, his defending statue form depicts his tome in his right hand and his staff in his left hand.
