Life Sapper is a low mana Magic monster that can hold it's own if it is given the chance to get a few attacks in to build it's hitpoints up. A great option in low mana games.

The Strategy

It was a Modern, Gold League, 36 Mana battle with Silenced Summoners and Odd Ones Out. Odd mana value monsters really restrict the gameplay and team compositions. Paired with silenced summoners meant there will be a strong emphasis on good monster choices for the battle.

PositionCardLevelReason
SummonerThaddius Brood4Reduction in Magic Damage and HP for the entire enemy team.
Position 1Crypt Beetle5A cheap tank option with shield to tank as many hits as possible.
Position 2Djinn Muirat2A very strong card with decent damage, armour and high hitpoints. A great damage dealer/tank combo
Position 3Life Sapper4Our star of the week. Low mana and low health but decent damage with life leech.
Position 4Scavo Hireling5Strong support with repair and a bit of a damage sink for the backline.
Position 5Dhampir Stalker4High Damage and hitpoints with decent speed. A great backline damage dealer.
Position 6Lira the Dark2High speed and decent damage with opportunity to pick off the lower health monsters.

The Result

Round 1 kicked off with our Lira the Dark taking out the opposing Fire Elemental. The enemy Serpentine Spy rebutted by taking out our focus for the week, Life Sapper, before they had a chance to strike. Our Crypt Beetle also succumb to the Djinn Apprentice. Some strong blows were traded but there were no more casualties in Round 1.

Round 2 started with our Lira the Dark enacting revenge on Serpentine Spy. Both sides continued to endure strike after strike.

Round 3 saw the Dhampir Stalker finish off the enemy tank, Living Lava.

Then thanks to the Scavo Hireling, we were able to pick off the remaining enemy one at the time without losing anyone else.
