The ruleset for this week's challenge
- Equalizer - All unit start with the same health, based on the highest health on either team
The ruleset that I managed to get
- Rulesets - FabFour & Equalizer
- Mana Cap - 43
- Active Elements -
Here's my starting lineup
Summoner: Thaddius Brood
- With this weeks challenge the specific summoner type doesn't matter so I went with Thaddius Brood because I had great team in mind
- Also I think Thaddius Brood is super strong as he grants -1 magic damage and -1 hp to all of the enemy team
1st Position: Harklaw
- Harklaw was my main tank for this battle
- Main reason I like Harklaw here a lot is his Shield ability
- Shield - Reduced damage from melee and ranged attacks
- Immunity - This Unit is immune to negative status effects
2nd Position: Usut
- Probably my favorite soulbound cards so far
- All of the stats are super great in my opinion other than the speed which was 1
- Flying - Has a 25% bonus chance of evading Melee or Ranged attacks from Units who do not have the flying ability
- Bloodlust - Every time this Unit defeats an opponent, it gets +1 to all stats
3rd Position: Sand Worm
- When the mana cap is big enough I always like to play Sand Worm
- For 9 mana you get 6 damage (with Sneak), 2 speed and 6 hp
- Sneak - Targets the last unit on the enemy Team instead of the first unit
4th Position: Octopider
- Octopider was my backline tank for this battle
- Also hes has some quite amazing stats being 3 ranged damage, 3 speed and 8 hp
- Alongside the amazing stats is hes Demoralize ability which combined with Harklaw Shield may end in a situation where my Harklaw just simply can't take damage
- Demoralize - Reduces the Melee attack of all enemy units by 1
Starting board
- The starting board seemed like a win to me because after all the summoner effects and monster abilities I definitely had much more damage
- And also my Sand Worm was going to take down his only healer
Here's how the battle went
1st, 2nd & 3rd Round
- First 2 rounds nothing happened because my enemies healer was healing all the damage my monsters were dealing
- But in the 3rd Round my Sand Worm finally managed to take down the healer and I began to chip away his tank
4th Round
- in the 4th Round I finally took down my enemies tank
- And I also started to deal damage to his new backline magic monster
5th Round
- In the 5th Round my Sand Worm managed to took down my enemies Captain's Ghost
- Now it was just a one last monster between me and my victory
6th Round
- It took me 1 turn to kill my enemies last standing monster
- After his Sea Genie had fallen I took the victory
- Battle Replay Link
Summary
- This battle was definitely heavily one sided but still fun to watch
- I believe the strategy to take away from this battle is the Shield and Demoralize ability combo
- The combo also works with Void, Silence for magic and Shield, Headwinds for range
- And also I got lucky with my summoner selection and my enemies team
