Welcome to my second Splinterlands post about LOST MAGIC ruleset. A few hours ago I made this post below:
From many available approaches we can do in LOST MAGIC ruleset, I have preferred the defensive one which mainly focus on building up your armor and maintain those armor to make you win the battle. In that post I have showcased how good Swamp Spitter due to his repair ability. Ok what's next then?
Every meta must have their weakness, their counter. In this post I will try to take the counter meta, or maybe in general we say this is the aggresive approach... taking in PIERCING ability!! Why Piercing? because we predict that mot players would do what I do before, build up armors and maintain them to get a win. Armor is the most effective defense against any physical attacks, whether its a melee or a ranged one.
I will have Jared Scar to lead my team. He is one the most dangerous melee unit who has PIERCING ability. My biggest concern will be an opponent who has a dispel ability, hopefully I won't get any because most of dispel ability units are lame. Well if they are not lame, they all will be OP.
THE BATTLE
This was a Modern Gold league rank battle, and I was using a scholarship account in Juice Guild, blackrssantan. Here were the rulesets we had here
I saw there was a Heal Out ruleset. No heal would be done in here, so I expected that people might relied a lot on their armor, or they would put some high speed evasive units in their team... well It would not be a matter because Jared Scar had Piercing to bypass any armor and true strike which made him wouldn't miss any of his attacks.
ROUND 1
- The battle started with both of us Buffing up our team and debuffing our opponents.
- My opponent came with 14 Melee Damage and 1 range damage. It's a combined 15 damage per round and they still had that Dhampir Infiltrator
- My team had 8 Melee damage and 3 range damage. Combined all it's 11 damage per round which was a lot my opponent fire power.
- I really did not like this kind of battle, which both of us using similar approach but it did not the same exactly.
- Overall my opponent line up was beter. They had that Tower Griffon and Vruz. However the battle was not a contest of who had better units.
ROUND 2
- Round two started with 5 vs 5, based on the number of units, we were equal however they had lost their Jared Scar. I did not think this was near of equal.
ROUND 3
- This round started with my team on lead by having 5 vs 4 condition.
- My jared Scar kept killing one target per round and meanwhile their sneaking team failed to kill my clockwork aide in this round.
ROUND 4
- 5 vs 3, it got worse as the battle progressed.
- meanwhile my Jared Scar had got onto undefeated bloodlust buff up.
ROUND 5
- It's a game over for him, none could matched up my Jared Scar anymore. Good Game
CLOSURE AND DISCUSSION
I won the battle, and where did my opponent go wrong? there were 2 faults that later were the driven why he lost badly.
- Not focusing on the meta. Maybe he should ditch the Jared Scar because his main focus was more on the sneak attack team. Get more buff sturdy tank, such as Chaos Knight. Maybe he would had better chance.
- Why would you go for the sneak team when you have equalizer ruleset? Seriously everyone had the same healthpoint, so whether its main tank or backline dancer, all have the same difficulty to kill. Why don't he follow me, bang the front door directly.
Ok back to the main topic, LOST MAGIC, I would like to recommend this summoner because he buffs the speed and gives you the piercing ability. Conqueror Jacek might be one of the favorable Summoner during this LOST MAGIC ruleset.
However I do not favor the range squad on Jacek team. Just get the melee team, such as Tenyii Striker, Sand worm or other big hitters, all of their attacks will pierce the armor and kill target faster. A good meta for LOST MAGIC which we already know our opponent will add some armor.
