Hello Hivers!
I just want to share with you a battle on how to utilize an infrequently used monster card, the Exploding Rats. In your battles on bronze to gold, this card is used only by a few. And I'll show you the only way to utilize it.
But before that, here is its lore:
LORE:
There are some places in the Burning Lands where rats are especially easy to find, so the discovery of Exploding Rats has been beneficial to the Torch in several ways. In most cases, the strange but simple combustion spell is only used for extermination purposes in the caves and around the city of Azad. Combustion works better on some species than others. When used on humans, for example, the same spell only catches their hair on fire, which is easy enough to put out. For some unknown reason, rats explode with enough force to take down a brick wall. Because of the intensity with which they explode, rats are also weaponized in several interesting ways.
THE CARD:
This card seems to be very useless because of its 1 HP on a relatively high mana cost. That's why this card is rarely used in battles.
BUT!
When you are battling with it on an Equalizer ruleset, this card is very strong!
The initial Health of all Monsters is equal to that of the Monster on either team with the highest base Health.
So, without further ado, here's the link to the battle:
