Here's my starting lineup

Summoner: Immortalis

  • With the ruleset that I got the best summoner I had was Immortalis
  • Because the element did not matter I just needed Immortalis for his abilities and level
1st Position: Disintegrator

  • Disintegrator was my main tank for this battle
  • Main reason I like Disintegrator here a lot is his Demoralize ability
  • Demoralize - Reduces the Melee attack of all enemy Units by 1
  • Trample - When a Unit with Trample hits and kills its target with a Melee attack, it will perform another Melee attack on the next Unit on the enemy Team
2nd Position: Uraeus

  • Love this card so much because of how many stats you get for low mana
  • For 3 mana you get 2 melee damage (with Sneak), 3 speed, 1 armor and 3 hp
  • Sneak - Targets the last unit on the enemy Team instead of the first unit
3rd Position: Parasitic Growth

  • Another low mana cost melee monster with Opportunity
  • For 4 mana you get 2 damage (with Opportunity), 1 speed and 3 hp
  • Opportunity - Units with the Opportunity ability may attack from any position and will target the enemy Unit with the lowest health
4th Position: Magi of Chaos

  • Next up in line is one lovely magic monster
  • Sadly I only have him in level 1 but he was still good enough of my team
5th Position: Magi Sphinx

  • For my 5th monster was also magic card
  • And again sadly I only had him in level 1
  • Even tho both of my magic monsters where level 1 I still played them as I did not have any other monsters to play and they were good enough
6th Position: Sand Worm

  • And as always if you have high mana cap battle you need to play Sand Worm
  • He was also like my backline tank if my enemy should play any Sneak monster themself
  • I just love his high damage and high health
  • Sneak - Targets the last unit on the enemy Team instead of the first unit

Starting board

  • At first glance I got scared real quick because of his summoner as I do not see him often in ranked but then I realized he was level 1 and because of that all of my enemies monsters where level 1
  • Also his monsters placement looked a little of to me but maybe he had some secret to hide
  • And not to rub salt to his wound but my summoner totally countered his all magic team
  • These 3 points where all telling me that was 100% my victory but lets still start it up and have a look how it went

Here's how the battle went

1st Round

  • After 1st Round my theory was correct and his board was looking quite empty already while my board was almost as healthy as in the beginning
  • I had managed to take down 3 of my enemies monsters while not losing any of mine
2nd Round

  • 2nd Round was not better for my enemy also
  • I still had all my monsters and my enemy had only one monster without attack left
  • So I just needed to wait for the next round and claim my victory
3rd Round

image.png

  • It took me 1 whole round to kill my enemies last standing monster
  • After his Ulundin Overseer had fallen I took the victory
  • Battle Replay Link

Summary

  • This battle was definitely heavily one sided but still fun to watch
  • The battle came down to 3 main reasons which I listed in the Starting board section
  • But I also think I played the ruleset quite good except the two magic monsters who were only level 1 and took a lot of damage away from my team
  • If you also would like to hop on the Splinterlands train feel free to use my Referral
