CRYPTO BEETLE
CRYPT BEETLE
Any explorers that delve too deeply into the crypts, mausoleums, and necropolises of the world will find a foe they are unprepared for. Not undead, not liches, and not other monsters that can be found in the deep. Instead, tales are told of the crypt beetles. Enormous insects that are found feeding on the corpses within. Most explorers think they are a mere nuisance and will try to scare them away from whatever tomb they are choosing to rob.
But things don't end well for those explorers. These large beetles will defend themselves and their food aggressively. And any explorer that makes it back out alive will have impressive scars to show from the crypt beetle's bite.

Seven exciting rounds of non stop action with the full display of each of the summoners and monsters skills plus abilities. It's really like a CRYPTO market that you can't predict who will win it.
Tell us about your lineup
My lineup is consists of 4 death units and 2 neutral units.
Did your strategy work?
Yes, almost not😅. The ability of CRYPT BEETLE and HARKLAW gave my team a boost in order to win this battle.
What will you try differently next time?
As long as the ruleset allows me to add more powerful and stronger monster I will definitely take that chance and use my available units.
Do you like the CRYPT BEETLE? Why or why not?
Sorry not really a fan. No again as I have lost so much using CRYPT BEETLE as the tank and the combination to it seems really difficult depending also on the ruleset. However, if played maybe on a higher level this monster have a chance to improve or be better. That's the reason why I called it a CRYPTO BEETLE it's really unpredictable, sometimes you can WIN and mostly you cannot.🤣
