Ant Miners - Battle Analysis
In this week battle challenge, since i don’t have a match with dragons card, however i will discuss with another great card which is Ant Miners. This would be very helpful for lower bracket, that have a fire quest. Along with low mana bracket such as 11-17 mana cap.

Overview
In this battle the mana cap is 30, all element can be used, and ain’t got no rules. We are going to use fire deck that have a high mana such as Living Lava as primary Tank, and Ant Miners as secondary tank.
Ant Miners
This monster has the “Scavange” ability which gain 1 health each time monster (enemy and ours) died in the battle. For example, Ant Miners have stats of 1 HP, 1 melee DMG, and 1 ASPD then when a monster dies in the battlefield, Ant Miners will have 2 HP with other stats being the same. This card is very suitable for cheap secondary tank. The idea is to have our monsters that have “opportunity” abilities that able to instantly murder low health card such as Serpentine Spy. Tenyii Striker also optional if the mana cap able to sustain it, since it will attack the back side of the enemy.
Round 1
Let’s start with analyze my enemy, it uses earth splinter. His primary attack focuses on magic damage, with summoner of Obsidian giving my enemy monster +1 magic attack. His primary tank is Unicorn Mustang this means my armor in Living Lava is not utterly useless. Then with the rest of magic attacker that have 2-3 damage, adding to that my enemy had Mycelic Slipspawn have the “taunt” ability which means my monsters (Serpentine Spy, Fire Elemental, Tenyii Striker, & Venari Spellsmith) attacking that card.
I know that i am at an advantage here since i have greater ASPD, but i need to murder Mycelic Slipspawn ASAP so that my Ant Miners able to gain more health by killing the other weak HP enemy card.. On the other hand, my summoner which is Tarsa, gives all my monster +1 HP threshold and +1 melee DMG. Hence i am able to murder Mycelic Slipspawn easily.
Round 2
My primary tank had died and notice how my Ant Miners had stats of 4 HP!!! (previously 2 HP). Notice my enemy Goblin Psychic have only 1 HP left, with my enemy primary tank have 7 HP. This is due to Fire Elemental “blast” abilities which attack the next to monsters when it attack. Since Mycellin Slipspawn located in the center hence fire elemental able to attack my enemy primary tank & Goblin Psychic simultaneously. But since Goblin Psychic have “heal” abilities which restore +2 HP of 1st row monster, hence my enemy primary tank still have high HP.
Round 3
Notice how my Ant Miners despite being attacked so much but still have 3 health (previously 4 HP). Previously Ant Miners being attacked so much that it left with 1 HP but due to 2 of my enemy monster had died resulting in my Ant Miners gain +2 HP.
When my enemy primary tank attack, only then my Ant Miners had died. A truly resilient, cheap tank card.

Afterward it is an easy win for me. Since it is 4 against 1, Unicorn Mustang stand no chance whatsoever.
