I won despite my opponent using good magic attackers from Death Splinter.
BATTLE LINEUP
YODIN ZAKU (Summoner)
I used Yodin Zaku to play since Lava Spider belongs to Fire splinter.
Yodin has blast ability, increases all monsters health by one and also increases all range attacks by 1.
Therefore is a perfect combo!! since Lava Spider is a range attacker.
TUSK THE WILD
It is a monster with 6 mana and great health, I had to put it in frontline to absorb damage whether magic or from melee attacker.
It has void ability.
LIVING LAVA
Living Lava is second in my lineup, it has shield ability. Is a melee attacker but can attack from any position because of the battle ruleset.
ANTOID PLATOON
I introduced this monster just because of it’s shield ability. I thought my opponent was going to use melee attackers all through but I was disappointed when I saw magic monsters.
ANTOID was the first to die in my lineup because of it’s low health.
GOBLIN MECH
One of the oldest cards I have, it took the 4th position in my lineup.
Goblin Mech is always useful in all monster sneak or opportunity ability battle.
It has 4 melee attack with a Piercing ability and 3 speed.
GEM METEOR
Scattershot ability came with Chaos Legion Edition. Is quite handy when you are using a blast monster or summoner.
I used it to be able to hit the enemy middle line or backline in an unpredictable sequence.
It was very useful in the battle and it got 2 range attacks with the help of Yodin.
LAVA SPIDER
Monster in question; I had to put it at the last position just to make sure it doesn’t die early.
Lava Spider has a snipe ability, very useful when using Yodin as summoner.
It assisted in damaging enemy monsters that have high threats.
MY STRATEGY
My strategy did work, but I would only replace ANTOID PLATOON because of it’s low health. What really helped me win the battle is the blast ability from Yodin Zaku.
THOUGHTS ON LAVA SPIDER
It is a very useful card but I would prefer to have it at level 4 where it gets 2 range attack.
Regardless with it’s low mana, it is a must use monster in battle.
I already have Yodin Zaku, so it would always compliment my battle lineup.
