Evony Lorenzo de Medici & Nicolo Piccanino Guide 2025
Evony's 9th Birthday Celebration (November 28, 2025) dropped two ground troop beasts: Lorenzo de Medici (Epic Historic, token-pull king) and Nicolo Pichanino (F2P gathering viable). If you're a K50 trap keeper on server 1429 like me (Favian from Empire Build Academy), these rally HP/attack monsters (+60% ground attack/def) could flip SvS. Underwhelmed by cakes? Me too—no wall gen surprise. In this complete guide, we break down skills, 5★ ascensions (+35% ground attack/def/HP), specialties, covenants (up to +24% march size), and F2P strategies (hoard 100 tokens for Lorenzo's 16% odds). Historic Summoning boosted—pull now!
