`MY LINEUP`

Card Image	Buff	Element	Strategy
	+1 Ranged damage	Life	Considering Target Practice and Close Range rulesets, Ranged attack Monsters are the most suitable. I choose General Sloan as the Summoner to boost the Ranged damage. Cornealus, Lensmaster, and Pelacor Arbalest are my choice of the Ranged attack Monsters. They are quite popular nowadays especially Cornealus because of its heal ability.

Position	Name	Ability	Strategy
1st	Blinding Reflector	-	Low mana tank with quite a lot of Armor and Health. He is the best choice if we want to save mana for other Monsters although he doesn't have any ability and low attack. It doesn't matter because I need him to withstand attacks only.
2nd	Soul Fiend	-	The 0 mana Monster as the second tank to withstand the enemy attack.
3rd	Cornealus	Heal	I purposely put him in the third position as the enemy's Ranged and Magic attack Monsters will target and attack him first due to the Target Practice ruleset. He will cover the backline Monster from the attack. Luckily, he has a lot of Health and heal ability so won't be easy to get knocked out by the attacks.
4th	Lensmaster	-	Attack the enemy Monster in the first position with Ranged damage. As the low mana Monster, he has quite high Speed and is suitable as the filler Monster or for the low mana battle.
5th	Pelacor Arbalest	Double Strike	He has a Double Strike ability which makes him could do twice an attack per round. So if successfully hit the enemy Monsters then he will deal 6 damage to them.

ROUND 1

The enemy used the Water splinter with lineups as follows:

Position	Summoner	Monster	Rarity	Level
-	Lir Deepswimmer	-	Legendary	2
1st	-	Frost Giant	Legendary	2
2nd	-	Hardy Stonefish	Common	1
3th	-	Poseidon	Legendary	2

Round 1 started with buff and debuff process by both team as follows :

Summoner / Monster	Buff	Debuff	Target
Lir Deepswimmer(S)	+2 Armor and Return Fire ability	-	The Opposing Monsters
Lir Deepswimmer(S)	-	Blind effect	My Monsters
General Sloan(S)	+1 Ranged attack	-	My Monsters

Summary of round 1 :

Both teams exchange attacks in the first position.
Poseidon's attack managed to hit Cornealus and create a blast effect on the nearby Monster. Soul Fiend and Lensmaster are knocked out by the blast effect.
Cornealus' attack hits Poseidon but he also takes damage due to Poseidon's Return Fire ability.
Similar thing happened to Pelacor Arbalest and he was knocked out after two times receiving the damage from the Poseidon's Return Fire ability.
Blinding Reflector tried to attack Frost Giant but couldn't give any damage due to Frost Giant's Shield ability.
Frost Giant tried to attack Blinding Reflector as well but missed.

DID MY STRATEGY WORK?

Yes, my strategy works effectively. I didn't expect the enemy will Lir Deepswimmer as the Summoner and Poseidon. He used a counter strategy for Ranged attack Monsters.
Luckily, I have Cornealus on my team. He keeps healing himself each round. He also managed to evade attacks from Frost Giant which is a critical point in the battle. If he fails then he will knock out by Frost Giant.

AFTERTHOUGHTS

Cornelius is a good monster plus he comes from Neutral splinter so he can be used in any battle with other splinters except for the Taking Side ruleset.
He is suitable for high mana battle and rulesets namely Target Practice, Close Range, Noxious Fumes, etc.
He has 3 abilities that can do damage back to the attacker. Awesome!
Actually, this is my first time using him in my team and I was really impressed.
The current selling price is $100 per BCX while the rental price is very volatile nowadays as many people have started using it since the new reward system.
