The ruleset for this week's challenge
- Shades of Gray - Only Neutral Units may be used in battles
The ruleset that I managed to get
- Rulesets - Shades of Gray, Heavy Hitters & Aim True
- Mana Cap - 23
- Active Elements -
Here's my starting lineup
Summoner: Kelya Frendul
- With the ruleset and element pick that I got the thought the best possible summoner I could go with is Kelya Frendul
- I picked him because he has some amazing stats and also because I felt like my enemy would not play any magic monsters with this type of low mana cap battle so the +1 armor should be huge for my team
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: Furious Chicken
- Nothing really to say here other than why not play him he costs 0 mana when you have room for him of course
3rd 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
4th Position: Parasitic Growth
- Next up in line is another backline hitter monster
- Even tho you don't get as much of stats as you get with Uraeus, Parasitic Growth is still strong enough to earn a spot in my team
- Opportunity - Units with the Opportunity ability may attack from any position and will target the enemy Unit with the lowest health
5th Position: Magi Sphinx
- And for last but not least is Magi Sphinx
- The idea for him was to basically be my only magic monster so my enemy could not play someone with low hp and really high armor
- Also she was like a backline tank for my backline hitters so they could to more damage than my enemy if he decided to got with a team like my own
Starting board
- The starting board did not really say anything other than my summoner pick was definitely a right call
- But all my efforts to take down his backline fast was totally missed as my enemy played full front up team comp
- But anything could still happen so lets start the battle and have a look
Here's how the battle went
1st Round
- After 1st Round my confidence was slowly fading away
- I was taking down his backline to slowly and his frontline was giving some big hits
- Next round I was going to lose my tank and also my Demoralize ability with him
2nd Round
- After 2nd Round my board was looking quite sad already and sadly I did not have any hopes left for winning as he needed to miss to many attack in a row
- If I somehow managed to survive round 3 I was definitely done in the 4th Round
- But anything could still happen so lets keep watching
3rd Round
- 3rd Round was also a total disaster for me
- I just did not have enough damage left to take down is frontline
- Now I just needed to wait for the start of round 4 and face a Loss
4th Round
- It took him 1 turn to to take down my last standing monster
- After my Parasitic Growth had fallen I took the loss
- Battle Replay Link
Summary
- This battle was definitely far from victory
- I believe the battle came down to me playing only backline attacking comp and my enemy playing strong frontline attacking + no damage, high hp backline which my comp could not get through in time
