Battle rules
Symbol | Rule Effect |
---|---|
![]() | The initial Health of all Monsters is equal to that of the Monster on either team with the highest base Health. |
![]() | All Monsters have the Divine Shield ability. |
Total Mana : 27
Usable elements : Fire, Earth, Death and Dragon
The equalizer ruleset allows for those low hp high damage units to be used more plus with divine shield a free negate is added to all unit which is quite nice, blast would work really well as well as double strikes.
Team Composition
Card | Role | Reason |
---|---|---|
![]() | Summoner | Tarsa chosen for the extra hp and melee damage since i am planning to go with the exploding rat as the main tank with the equalizer ruleset |
![]() | Main tank, Blast, Redemption | Exploding Rats with blast and redemption its the better unit to use in equalizer since it has an extremely high speed with blast to shred other and redemption to take out those divine shield if it gets taken out |
![]() | Opportunist | Serpentine Spy with the damage buff it would do 3 damage and with opportunist it will still be able to attack |
![]() | Opportunist | Battering Ram used as it can still attack at this position and gets buffed by the summoner with my remaining mana |
![]() | Magic damage, Star of the challenge | Djinn Apprentice with equalizer it will not have too low of an hp amount and it does quite a bit of damage for its cost |
![]() | Stun | Technowizologist, one of the newer cards with stun its really nice to use plus its a magic attack so the chance of missing is only there if they use phase units |
![]() | Sneak, Poison | Uraeus to sneak and hit the backline and hopefully poison those units |
Now on to the Battle
Round 1
Exploding rat speed did not help it since magic will always hit but its redemption did work and striped all the divine shields off the opponent's team.
The round ends with my team losing the exploding rats while their team lost all their divine shields and one of their units got poisoned.
Round 2 & 3
The stun keep my team from dying too fast since it prevented one unit from attacking.
The rounds end with my team losing another 2 units and a bit of hp while the opponent lost 2 units and gained another poisoned unit.
Round 4 to The Last Round
Strategy Talk
The strategy was revolves around using redemption to clear out the buff of divine shield, stuns to stop a unit and poison to allow for more damage per turn as redemption clears the divine shield with its 1 sure hit point of damage resulting in an advantage on my side since i still have divine shield.
Djinn Apprentice is a vanilla magic damage unit till it hits level 6 and its one of the few magic damage units for the fire element that is still quite decent to use due to its lowish cost for the amount of damage it give sadly it does not have armor which is a weakness
Good ruleset to use in:
Ruleset | Explanation |
---|---|
Holy Protection | double edged sword it a free negate for damage but the shield prevents it from hurting others as well |
Odd One Out | Since its an odd Mana card it works in this ruleset |
Explosive Weaponry | Double edged sword since it allows it to hit for more damage at the same time and since its magic it bypasses armor |
Armored Up | protects it and since its a magic attacker its great |
Equalizer | it has low base hp but makes it harder for it to kill units as well |
