Ohhh yes, another of my favorite cards, the Manticore is a very good card, with decent stats and skill in each of its levels, and also as most reward cards is very cheap, so it is a good card, nice and cheap and with very good skills that complement it.
Manticore abilities
 |
Flying This ability makes the manticore a bit elusive and also resistant to earthquakes, it is a skill that fits her very well. |
 |
Reach This skill allows our manticore to attack from the second position, I think it's the skill that defines the role of this monster as an effective attacker, since it's not a tank itself. |
 |
Thorns Well, the manticore is not a tank but maybe it can be a semi-tank and this skill complements that role a little. |
According to my app the manticore has an overall win rate of 50, 49%. Not bad for a reward card that's used 4.1% of the time. It is a highly recommended card for rulesets with Armored up where it has a 62.5% winrate when this rule is applied.
Let's see the Manticore in this battle.
The line up
 |
Daria Dragoscale My dragon summoner, maybe not the best summoner for this splinter but not a bad summoner. |
 |
Manticore Usually the manticore's place is second position, but since it is playing little league, it can be in the front without problems. |
 |
Silvershield Warrior With the manticore in the first position taking advantage of his Flying and Thorns skills, this monster takes this position. |
 |
Highland Archer A basic archer to do damage from a distance. |
 |
Baby Unicorn His mission will be to increase the life and speed of the team. |
 |
Serpentine Mystic Affliction FTW! We also put in some magic damage. |
 |
Silvershield Archers More damage from a distance, these archers take last position because of their low life. |

The strategy work?
The manticore did a great job holding out even to the end of the battle while doing a good amount of damage each turn with both his basic attack and his thorns ability, the speed and life bonus the baby unicorn gives him helps him and the team very well.
