Struggling with finding champions/gate keys

from Elemental Forums

Not sure if I am having a run of bad luck or just missing some game mechanic but in the game I am currently playing I am having zero luck in finding the Sorcerer Kings champions who hold the gate keys.

 

I am only on a small map but it has become somewhat tedious to hunt them down due to how many units the SK now has on the map and the fairly slow movement of my units. Maybe I am just missing something here but I feel that the champion key holders should become marked on the map even if it is just when you first get to the SK gate, or maybe have it as a game option? I have pretty much run my units into the ground running around the map and in the meantime the SK has destroyed a lot of shards and started pumping out some very strong units as the doomsday clock ticks up.

 

As I said maybe I am just missing something obvious?

I recommend making two scouts initially and use them to 1. find the SK main location 2. grab goodies 3. find the enemy champions and 4. monitor for enemy troop movements towards defendable shards. I mention defendable because some shards are goners, period. Do not waste your time on those. However, some shards are defendable by knowing enemy troop movements and then intercepting. Once 1,2, and 4 are complete, you can use scouts solely for 3 as your "hunt" begins. I hope this helps.
