Today we are going to do a deep look into the Crypt Bettle and it's usefulness in battle! Let's start with the lore!

Any explorers that delve too deeply into the crypts, mausoleums, and necropolises of the world will find a foe they are unprepared for. Not undead, not liches, and not other monsters that can be found in the deep. Instead, tales are told of the crypt beetles. Enormous insects that are found feeding on the corpses within. Most explorers think they are a mere nuisance and will try to scare them away from whatever tomb they are choosing to rob.
But things don't end well for those explorers. These large beetles will defend themselves and their food aggressively. And any explorer that makes it back out alive will have impressive scars to show from the crypt beetle's bite.

This card got my attention as soon as Chaos Legion started. Not because it was overpowered, but because it was cheap ("and still is..."). A 3 mana card with shield! That's a bargain!

Stats

For this weekly challenge, I'll show how a 3 mana card can save you from a lot of trouble, if you know what are you doing. This card can save you from a lot since the "Shield" ability can remove 1 point from incoming Melee and Ranged damage, so if you were able to debuff your enemy cards and make them with 1 damage this card will receive any! That's the secret of success!

The battle:

The ruleset was Super Sneak and Little League, with 20 mana to spend, that's not a lot to create many compositions.

Strategy

The key part here was guessing what the opponent would do. I guessed he would go full melee comp, and that's where things got spicy.

The summoner Zintar Mortalis allowed me to transform my enemy cards useless against my Crypt Bettle, because they can't hit a card with the "Shield" ability if they only have 1 damage!

It was a funny battle for sure! Be sure to give a try!
