Introduction


Hello there! @saydie here, playing Splinterlands everyday!

This will be my first entry for this week's Battle Mage Secrets with the featured ruleset Lost Magic. This is a ruleset where monster units with Magic cannot be used in battle.

For this battle that I'm gonna show, I will be using my @agonyaccepted account which is my alternate account playing in Diamond League on modern format.

But before I reveal my battle, let us learn more about this ruleset.

Aside from the summoner, there were 4 types of monsters based on attack types namely, Non-damage (default) with no attack, melee, range and magic but because of the ruleset, magic monsters cannot be used. These were the samples of cards with different attack types and the cards that were crossed out are samples of Magic cards that were banned from this ruleset.

Summoner: Quix the Devious - A Dragon summoner which gives -1 range and speed debuff on all opponent monsters.

  • 1st Position: Chaos Agent - A 1- mana No damage unit that has both Dodge ability which gives it 25% evasion chance together with Phase which allows it to evade magic attacks and Backfire to inflict damage back when an attacker miss.

  • 2nd Position: Scavo Chemist - Another No damage unit with 2 mana cost which has Cleanse to remove to remove debuffs on an ally monster while reducing the speed and range damage of all opponent monsters with Slow and Headwinds.

  • 3rd Position: Naga Assassin - A 2- mana range monster with Backfire and increases the speed of all ally monster by +1 using Swiftness.

  • 4th Position: Suppyly Runner - A 6- mana range unit that also has Swiftness together with Strengthen that increases the health of all ally units by +1.

  • 5th Position: Vruz - A 2-mana melee monster that has Sneak, allowing it to attack backline opponents and will increase the stats of adjacent monster by +1 with Martyr.

  • 6th Position: Countess Sinash - Another range with Swiftness that has the Opportunity ability to attack the monster with the lowest health and give it the Affliction debuff to prevent it from healing while inflicting extra damage to adjacent units with Blast. It also has Camouflage which prevented it from being attacked directly.

Battle Recap

Here is a replay of the battle which at you can watch at Splinterlands.

Did My Strategy Work?


When magic units cannot be used in battle, chances are that the opponent will use melee and range monsters and in this case they used melee oriented team while also nerfing my range damage but I was still able to claim victory in this match since I have much more speed which not only allows me to attack faster but also evade most of their attacks.

That was it for this post. Thank you and see you at the next one.
