Sorry.

One thing I always wanted to know R'lyeh is a natural to cast Call Abomination, what does anyone think of this spell?

Has anyone gift of reasoned one, if so what slots does it get?

Huge hps, gaze of death, 3xlife drain, amph, fear+3, reg+10, looks like a mega SC to me.

Could it be a end of game winner?

I personally love call abomination.

2 misc item slots.

It gets 2 misc slots. As for using it as an SC the lack of slots combined with its low protection and low defense makes it a bit unsuited (maybe if you went a bit crazy and gave it some magic on top). It is a good summon but on the other hand it is level 9 and at that point there are several other viable choices to spend astral gems on as rlyeh. I tend to put my astral into gem wishes most often at that point, but the abomination is an alternative for sure.

Late in the game i like to invest in atleast a couple of abominations. Sending a few of them into battle with your army(and a mage to boost your troops protection) can add a big punch due to their gaze of death. They can also soak up fire pretty well and draw fire away from SCs and thugs.
