Gurlik had been betrayed, killed, and thrown into a swamp by his successor Borjork, but the shaman of the orc tribe, Warspellz, has managed to bring him back from the dead. Gurlik has now risen from the swamp riding a massive toad named Gurmit, and he's hungry for vengeance.
Role: Attacker
Overview
Gurlik is the reward monster in the Swamp Riders Grand Prix. He can apply several Tortures such as Poison, Bleed, and Nightmares. His signature skill is a gamble: He can either gain Triple Damage for 2 turns and an extra turn, or turn him into a baby. In general, he has good skills and great trait, but his major problems are his pretty underwhelming stats.

- Good trait
- Neat relic slots
- Good power and damage output
- Access to Possession as an attacker
- Access to Bleed, Poison, and Nightmares as tortures
- Warspellz Potion can give himself Triple Damage for two turns and one extra turn
Cons:
- Possession only has a 50% chance of landing
- Only one AoE move, which removes Positive effects from himself
- Average life stat
- Mediocre speed
- Warpellz Potion! has a chance to deny himself and can be anticipation bait

Counters
- Gurlik is weak to Fire, so monsters like Nitroblaster or Cain should counter him easily.
- Trait disablers like Grakon and Ingenica are also good to counter Gurlik's amazing trait.
- Since Gurlik lacks AoE attacks, Taunt monsters such as Koralle Brutalis can stall him and let their teammates take down Gurlik. Rubellus is highly recommended as he is also a Nature monster with Botanophobic Shield, thus taking less damage from him.
Fun Fact
- Gurlik’s frog, “Gurmit” is based on the famous muppet “Kermit the Frog”.
