    Here's my starting lineup

    Summoner: Immortalis

    • With the ruleset and element pick that I got the first thought I had was Quora Towershead as for most Splinterlands players probably
    • So in my case I went with Immortalis as he is one of my favorites and super strong
    • Also he was a great summoner to counter my enemy playing Quora Towershead as with Void and -1 hp my Quora Towershead would win there duel
    1st Position: Quora Towershead

    • Quora Towershead was my main tanks and damage dealer for this battle
    • Main reason I like Quora Towershead here a lot is his Bloodlust ability
    • Also his he two other amazing ablities being Heal and Immunity
    • Bloodlust - Every time this Unit defeats an opponent, it gets +1 to all stats
    • Heal - Each round, restores 1/3 of max health (rounded down)
    • Immunity - Provides immunity to magic debuffs and Cripple
    2nd Position: Mushroom Seer

    • Mushroom Seer was just here because of his Silence ability
    • The ability was must have as I was sure my enemy would also play Quora Towershead
    • Even tho Mushroom Seers stats by themselves suck they did not matter in this battle
    • Silence - -1 magic power to all enemy units
    3rd Position: Wood Nymph

    • Wood Nymph was my first healer for this battle
    • Even tho his stats are not great at all his Tank Heal was what mattered
    • Tank Heal - Each round, restores 1/3 of max health (rounded down) to the allied unit in the first position
    4th Position: Goblin Psychic

    • Next up in line is my second healer
    • Even tho he costs 2 mana more than Wood Nymph he also has better stats and Affliction which was must have in this battle
    • Tank Heal - Each round, restores 1/3 of max health (rounded down) to the allied unit in the first position
    • Affliction - 50% chance to apply Afflicted after a successful attack. Afflicted units cannot be healed
    5th Position: Furious Chicken

    • Furious Chicken was here just for a single reason and that was to tank at least a single attack
    • I picked him last and that was because I had 0 mana left and 1 spot open
    6th Position: Uraeus

    • Uraeus was my backline tank for this battle
    • Also incase my enemy should not play any backline attacking monsters Uraeus was still able to be an attacker
    • Sneak - Targets the enemy unit in the last position

    Starting board

    • After seeing the starting board I was confident I would win because even tho my enemy played Quora Towershead + Martyr combo and I did not I still had better summoner, Silence, tripel heal and Affliction
    • But my predictions could still be off by a mile so lets start the battle and have a look

    Here's how the battle went

    1st Round

    • In the first round the board stayed almost the same other than him losing one of his Martyr monsters which he was definitely fine with as this boosted his Quora Towershead
    • But I also managed to hit my Affliction on his Quora Towershead and that totally confirmed my victory for this battle
    • But lets still keep watching how I closed the battle up and how long it took me
    2nd Round

    • After 2nd Round his Quora Towershead had fallen and the end was quite near
    • To this point I still had not lost any of my monsters but my Uraeus was hitting his backline monster with Thorns so now my goal was to end this battle before my Uraeus kills himself to get a flawless victory
    • Lets hope for the best and keep watching
    3rd Round

    • 3rd Round was a total disaster for me as I did not manage to hit my Affliction on my enemies healer and therefore I only took down his second Martyr monster
    • Sadly also my Quora Towershead had not got any take down to this point but next round that was going to change when hopefully he was gonna get two back to back takedowns
    • But for my sadness my Uraeus was going to fall to my enemies Thorns in the last round which meant I could not pull off a flawless victory this time around
    • Now I just needed to wait for the start of the last round and then face my victory
    4th Round

    • It took me half a round to kill my enemies last standing monsters
    • After his last three monsters had fallen I took the victory

    Summary

    • This battle was definitely heavily one sided but still fun to watch
    • The strategy to take away from this battle is that Quora Towershead + Martyr combo is not best in all occasions
    • I can be easily countered by Void, Silence or Affliction
