Hello Everyone,
@splinterlands/splinterlands-social-media-challenge-spqtac
Very rarely we get 99 mana battles nowadays although we have many monsters which cost more than 0 mana cost and i was happy when i saw one after a long gap, not sure whether it is the same for other guys, but i see it after a gap of some time.
Anyways, when i got this, i decided that i will write about it and luckily, i could win the battle which i had with this 99 mana cost cap.
The battle gave me an opportunity to explore on few monsters which i think i used very less and those monsters are the luceheim demon, drybone raider and new rebellion rewards card of janni rebel.
I explain about the lineup of monsters i used as below and also share the images of these monsters from the lore page of those.
Lineup:

As i mentioned, this battle gave me the opportunity to use some high mana cost monsters because the battle had 99 mana cost cap and the only ruleset was aim true.
Drybone barbarian:
These days, i think i have been using this monster in combination with iziar, the monster with taunt ability and when i use this with iziar, this monster gets enough time to attack the front monsters as all the enemy's monsters except front monster will be attacking iziar due to taunt it creates and this monster with it's enrage and retaliate, keeps attacking the front monster whichever comes infront of it.
Marisol contuma:
A perfect ally for drybone barbarian is this monster of marisol contuma which happens to be the bloodlust monster from the gladius packs from guild battles.
It is with armors and good attack and bloodlust means, it will keep winning by removing the monsters.
Janni rebel:
I mostly not used this much as it is a new rebellion rewards card and although it provides +1 to melee attack monsters, it's 2 magic attack is bit less when we have monsters like drybone barnarian and marisol contuma and then followed by iziar.
Iziar:
if you want to win battles, need to use the monsters wisely and options like taunt makes battles interesting as the attack will be diverted to taunt monster and this monster was like a gem to take on all the attack, yet didn't go down easily.
Drybone raider:
I used this for the double attack it has although from second line, it can only attack with ranged attack.
But in each round, it will attack 2 times with 2 ranged attack each.
Luceheim demon:
The sixth slot was filled by another new monster i am trying and that is luceheim demon which is a ranged attack monster with cleanse ability and is a snipe attack monster.
The iziar usage i think, was a masterpiece here with all monster were attacked by it like a magnet and it didn't disappoint and helped me to win the battle.
None of the monsters i used were removed and eventhough the iziar's health was reduced to just 1, it kept attacking and taking all the attack and let drybone barbarian keep attacking the way it attacks.
I love the way other monsters supported including that of marisol contuma and drybone raider.
