My "secret" strategy for beating the bots in Steem Monsters. People have been commenting a lot that they are having a very hard time with the bots so I have devised a strategy to beat them consistently with only lvl 1 cards
This is a screenshot from a recent match/battle that I played and won... (I am smonsters)
This is the whole battle if you want to see it.

Here is the basic strategy.
You must have a Lord Arianthus
He always goes in the front as a tank, and is a neutral card so you can use him in this strategy with more than one splinter.You must have a tank healer.
Right now these are the lvl 1 tank healers, but others are possible into the future.You must have a ranged attacker with at least 2 damage... the Silvershield Paladin has resistance to damage so if all of your attackers only have 1 damage the game will go into fatigue and you will most likely loose.
Magic attackers will also work, you might be able to get away with a 1 damage magic attack monster because it would bypass the ability of the paladin.
The options here are so wide that you will just have to mess around until you find what you like... I would just say that mana availability is going to be your biggest factor in this choice.You must have at least one sneak ability monster.
This is important because it is going to come behind and pick off all of the opponent's monsters until only Silvershild Paladin is left standing.
Basically you have to kill Devine Healer before you can start to Kill Silverhsild Paladin.
This strategy works a lot of the time... Unfortunately you must have all of 4 of these different type of monsters for it to work. This means that on very low mana cap games (like under 18 or so mana) you will pretty much just be SOL.
Conversely the higher the mana cap the more advantage you have... (the bots are not very good at making teams) I often like to add an extra sneak and or ranged attack monster, I bought Magi Sphinx to add into the mix...
which I find helpful but is generally not necessary.
Also it is good to have a Cocatrice or some type of monster at the back to protect from sneek monsters.

No problem... Was it helpful for you?
I won't know until my timer resets tomorrow but I think so. I just mainly do my daily quests each day and that is it.

Thanks. Do you ever play level 1 cards? I find it to be fun and challenging.

I tried to play and it is so hard for me as I am used to mostly maxed cards and I know what abilities they do but the lower levels are so hard!!

I need to try this as I've faced those cards so many times. I have all the cards you recommend. A friend gave me Lord Arianthus. Cheers
Nice to see some more strategies. I've been facing Silvershield Paladins nearly every time the life splinter is available to play. It tends to get pretty tiresome seeing it over and over. I've got a dark based deck that can usually handle it, but I'll have to give Lord Arianthus a shot.
Yeah I am sure that there are other ways to beat them... but this has been the easiest for me.

@steevc referred me to this page! Great tutorial. My strategy has been to use my snipe cards to take out the witch as soon as possible. I just bought an Arianthus, so I'm going to be trying this strategy throughout the day. Thanks for the strategy tips! Resteemed :)
Yeah... I better buy up some more Lord Arianthus before they go skyrocket in price... Haha assuming that my strategy catches on.
Seen a lot of people playing that card today 🤣
