Hello world and fellow Hivers
Before we begin with the actual purpose of my post, I would like to share a few things with you about my considerable absence from the platform and several communities in which I was involved. So I would like to clarify that I was not on vacation and that I couldn't keep up with Hive because of my job and several changes that happened in my life in general. I don't believe that giving you more info would benefit anyone but the general idea was that I struggled a lot with money and time during the past 1-2 months. Now things are looking much better in terms of my free time and I believe that I could be active again both on Hive and on discord and most importantly I will try to be daily active again on Splinterlands and the other games that I played regularly. So enough with that and let's see the real reason that you clicked this article. As I said earlier I didn't keep up with the game at all during this period and as you can imagine I was at Novice rank and our journey began from there. To be honest, I was pretty impressed with the quality of decks that I encountered in bronze and I indeed struggled a bit to rise through bronze 1 but I believe that tomorrow I will reach the Silver rank. So today we are going to review one of my battles that I believe you could find pretty useful in similar situations/ranks. So kick back relax and enjoy the battle.
The Battle
Ruleset
Summoner Selection
Well, in order to choose our summoner we must think about what the objective is for this time and we already know that our opponent probably is going to focus on Magic attack monsters, therefore, we should exploit that by any means. That in my mind translates to a few summoners and in this specific situation, I believed that the greatest solution was Owster Rotwell. For those who don't know this summoner grants to our whole formation the Magic Reflect ability.
Teams' Formation
Team presentation
The first card that I chose to place in my formation was the Furious chicken and the major reason for this decision was the fact that this card would not only stall my opponent's offense but it's going to deal some damage back because of the ability it got from my summoner. I highly recommend using it in similar situations and especially in low mana battles.
The second card that I played in this formation was the Bone Golem and the logic behind this decision was pretty obvious I believe and it's the ability this card has Void. This is my main tank for the battle and I pretty much wanted to stall my opponent as much as I could. It's a pretty decent card even at level 1 for 7 mana and I believe that it did a really huge difference in this battle.
Well, the third card that I chose for this position was the Gelatinous Cube and you already understand that we are going to focus more on the defense instead of the offense. This is one of the greatest defensive cards and has plenty of uses in various scenarios (poisonous rulesets, etc). Except for the base health that it has we really are interested in the ability it has Scavenger. As you would see in the video of the battle below it's going to be hella helpful for this battle.
The fourth card that I used in this formation was the Silent Sha-Vi and the reason that I chose this 5-mana monster was the Sneak ability. So I noticed that in the Magic formations that my opponent played regularly the backline of his formation was pretty vulnerable from potential threads. So I thought that one way to increase the speed of the collapse of his formation could be achieved by adding a sneak attack monster.
The last card that I played was the Xenith Archer. Well, I just wanted to pressure a little bit and from the frontline but I had only 2 mana available and it was pretty much my only solid option to place here. It's not a bad card and it helped in a way in this combat but I can really say that I chose it for a specific reason I just wanted to increase my damage output in total.
Watch the Action!
