Battle Mage Challenge -Melee Monsters Tanking Thorns
Good day Splinterfriends , here we are again for an exciting battle mage challenge. For this week we are given a ruleset that melee monster really hates.
Majority of battles on this ruleset uses mages and archers to avoid the damage from thorns, But I will show a different approach in dealing with this ruleset. So what are we waiting for let the battle begin.
Line Up Selection
- Expecting a lot of archer heroes , I picked Quix as my summoner for the obvious reasons, reducing damage of all archers would help me a lot.
- And for my Tank is Baakjira, also due to the ruleset I'm sure mage monsters will be used . The Void ability is a good counter for them, and that heal is a game changer.
- Also Having the mandarin helped me a lot, with his triage my melee monsters can be healed. And with the silence ability, another debuff is applied to mage heroes .
- Having the reflection shield, the Runi is a must pick in this kind of situations, playing this card at level 4 gives a lot of advantage . like its having an extra card just because of the rebirth.
- Kulu is such a beast , with his protect ability It will able to reduce the damage of thorns making it more sustainable . and when he take a damage from thorns ,the rage will activate giving him more damage and speed.
- And for a 50 Mana battle it won t hurt to pick a powerhouse mage like Chaos Dragon, his damage is enough reason to include him.
Battle Highlights
Just in the preparation stage , you can already see all the debuff that my lineup made. All damage from the opponents is reduced to, which gives my tank a better sustain from those damages.
Having three opportunity monster gave me an advantage. The time mage is immediately eliminated from battle. Giving back my armor and speed.
In the second round my melee monsters are doing there job targeting the week one. This time it is Brightwing that is eliminated. Even if they take damage from the thorns, the mandarin is there to regenerate some of their health.
My tank was eliminated due to the charged attack of Uriel, but in exchange my opportunity units took Renova , who I think is the only real threat in the opponents line up.
On the fourth round Uriel again delivered a killing blow to my frontline. but as you can see it just a little more time and this will all be done.
With my Opportunity Units chipping downs the back lines, Only Uriel is left and he can't take all the damage all to himself.
And so in the sixth round the battle ended. It was a well fought battle. Those utility skills and debuffs sure helped me a this time.
