Weekly BATTLE MAGE SECRETS Challenge with Keep Your Distance

I always like this Keep Your Distance ruleset as in this ruleset units with melee attacks may not be used. Use Phase, Void, Void Armor, and Magic Reflect to counter magic attacks. Use Headwinds and Return Fire to counter ranged attacks. Units with 2 types of attack (which include melee) cannot be used. So I look into my card collection of different tribes and felt that in death tribe I have some strong monsters cards. So for this battle I chose my death team. In this battle I chose strong ranged attack monster card at my back end so it could eliminate enemy's tank card quickly.

The Strategy

In this battle challenge my strategy is very simple as I chose lot of ranged attack monsters and one protect ability card but my all game relay on my back end ranged attack monster cards. So, I check my card collection and chose death team for this battle. As I think that in my death team I have some balance monsters cards combinations. So firstly I must choose a summoner which helps to increase my cards states or reduce enemy cards states so I chose death summoner THADDIUS BROOD as this summoner reduces one health and one magic attack to all enemy monsters. So for this Keep Your Distance ruleset it is a best choice. My enemy also brought same monster which reduce one magic attack and one health from my all monsters so this battle was death vs death summoners.

As I was using death summoner so I checked my death monsters cards and chose some high attack ranged attack monsters cards with some extra ability. As this battle was low mana 29 so my options to chose monsters cards were limited.


In this battle for tank position my best choice was RIFTWING no attack and 5 health with scavenger ability. On 2nd position I used VENARI BONESMITH one magic attack and 3 health with life leech ability. On 3rd position I used LIFE SAPPER one magic attack and 2 health with life leech ability. On 4th position I used RAVENHOOD WARDEN One ranged attack and 2 health with protect ability. On 5th position I used SOUL STRANGLER 2 ranged attack and 2 health. On last position I used DHAMPIR STALKER 3 ranged attack and 5 health with true strike ability. So in this battle my all hopes lied on my ranged attack monster cards like DHAMPIR STALKER. I hoped that my this monster would eliminate enemy tank card quickly. I also hoped that my cards would not miss any attack and my enemy would not have any healer card. Thanks to my summoner which reduce my enemy health and magic attack. So we discuss our today's battle lineup one by one in next section.

The Summoner

In this battle I used THADDIUS BROOD RARE Death Summoner as it reduces one magic attack and one health to all enemy monster cards. This summoner is helpful in all ruleset and works well in low mana fights.

1st Slot - Tank Monster

In this battle I used RIFTWING COMMON Death Unit with No attack, 5 health and 3 speed. This card is level 1 and also have scavenger ability so if any card dies this card gain one health. So, very helpful card in low mana battles and best choice for tank card in low mana fights.

2nd Slot - 2nd Tank Card

On 2nd position I used VENARI BONESMITH RARE Death Unit with one magic attack, 3 health and 2 speed. This card also has life leech ability so this monster's health increase each time it damage an enemy monster's health.

3rd Slot - Magic Attack Monster

On 3rd position I used LIFE SAPPER RARE Death Unit with one magic attack, 2 health and 2 speed. This card is very helpful in low mana battels with life leech ability. So, this monster's health increase each time it damage an enemy monster's health.

4th Slot - Ranged Attack Monster


On 4th position I used RAVENHOOD WARDEN RARE Death Unit with one ranged attack, 2 health and 2 speed. This card also has protect ability so all friendly monsters gain +2 armor.

5th Slot - Ranged Attack Monster


On 5th position I used SOUL STRANGLER RARE Death Unit with 2 ranged attack, 2 health and 2 speed.

Last Slot - Ranged Attack Monster

On last position I used DHAMPIR STALKER RARE Death Unit with massive 3 ranged attack, 5 health and 2 speed. This card is very helpful with true strike ability so this monster attack can't miss.

THE BATTLE

I think that I brought best team in this battle but my opponent also brought same team in this battle. On paper my enemy's team looks strong with strong 2nd tank card and also had opportunity ability card. In this battle card placement matters so in this battle my card placement was good.

In round one my team performed well and eliminate enemy's tank card.

In 2nd round my team again performed and eliminate enemy strong 2nd tank monster card.

So in last and 3rd round my team eliminated enemy all cards and won this battle easily in 3rd round without losing any card.

Conclusion

I think that I brought a perfect team combination in this battle and as expected my ranged attack monster cards perform well. My enemy also brought a descent team but only difference in this battle was a placement of cards on right positions. So this was a one sided match and I won this battle in 3rd round.
