Hi everyone! It's time for the weekly Battle Mage Secrets challenge and the challenge this week is the Ferocity Ruleset.
About the Ruleset
FerocityThe Ferocity ruleset states that "All Monsters have the Fury ability". This means that monsters with the Taunt ability will take double damage. I would avoid using monsters with the Taunt ability as much as possible.

 |  |  |  |  |  |
| Position | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Pelacor Conjurer | It has the Flying and Magic Reflect ability, and is here to reflect some magic damage since it's likely to be used in this ruleset. |
| 2 | Djinn Renova | It has the Strengthen ability and gives my entire deck an additional health. |
| 3 | Anachron Bolter | It has the Headwinds ability and I'm using it to reduce ranged damage from the opponent if the opponent uses ranged monsters |
| 4 | Captain Katie | It has the Snipe and Bloodlust ability and is my main damage dealer here. Hopefully, the Bloodlust ability will grow its stats to a good amount. |
| 5 | Venari Crystalsmith | It has the Tank Heal ability, and is here to provide heals to make my tanks last longer. |
| 6 | War Pegasus | It has the Flying and Shatter abilities, and has 3 Ranged attack. It helps to remove the shields . |
Strategy
The ruleset here meant that (1) melee monsters cannot be used, (2) monsters with the Taunt ability will take double damage.
As I saw that the opponent had higher level summoners and cards than me, I tried to stage a deck that will improve my chances of winning. So my strategy here was to reflect magic damage, increase my deck's health and to reduce ranged damage from my opponent, and to produce a good amount of damage.
The opponent opted to use Quix the Devious as his summoner, and that reduced the damage of my ranged monsters and slowed my deck down. At the same time, he used a mainly magic-based deck with a high amount of tanking health. It is a strategy that I like as well, but didn't opt for here as I figured that I'll lose if I go head to head with an opponent using a similar strategy. It's a real solid strategy here.
Initially, it looked like I was going to lose this battle. I was down to 4 monsters while the opponent still had a full deck of 6. I would have to say the heals and Bloodlust ability took effect at the right time and that really saved the day for me!
Thoughts on the Ferocity Ruleset
The Ferocity ruleset isn't a particularly challenging ruleset, since it only puts monsters with the Taunt ability at a disadvantage. There are many other strategies that can be used without using monsters with that ability. That being said, I do employ the Taunt ability a fair bit in my battles, so I won't say that I like the Ferocity ruleset a lot.

The latest town hall recap showed interesting development about the grain official market.
Thank you for your publication
Nice lineup in the arena
I am in the leaderboard but far from the top 200. I like the Halving ability. It is really helpful.
Are you stocking grain or just selling on the p2p market?
