What I want to share in this post is the country where Cruel Sethropod comes from, how it is used on the battlefield, and my personal opinion on the monster's stats.
Welcome to Azmare
Do you know Azmare country? where the water splinters come from. in azmare there is a very deep trough and that is where Cruel Sethropod is. He doesn't have abilities like other splinters, but his attacks are very painful. Read my blog until the end, I will show you how his role on the battlefield. I hope you enjoy.

Available Unit : Fire, Water, Death, and Dragon.

Based on rules, its time to use Cruel Sethropod as a little tanker in first position. We just put monster with 4 or less mana, So here my lineup versus my opponent lineup.
My Lineup
My Lineup

VS
Opponent's Lineup
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|---|
I put Thaddius Brood as summoner to call water splinter in battlefield. Then in first position i put Cruel Sethropod level 6 as a tanker, this monster a common monster from chaos legion edition and belongs to water unit. Even this monster did't have any skill but He has huge armor and health in monster with low mana cost.
Next position, i put Xenith Monk as second tanker. He is a rare monster from chaos legion edition and he is neutral unit. So i can combine with another element in battlefield. Xenith Monk have heal ability so i put this monster as second monster.
In thirt position i put a common card from reward edition. He is Pelacor Bandit who has flying ability and sneak ability. I put this card to break the back lineup.
Next position i put Angelic Mandarin who has 2 malee attack with triage ability. Angelic Mandarin iba rare monster from chaos legion edition belongs to water unit. I need 3 mana cost to used this monstet.
Fifth position, i put Kulu Swimhunter, a common monster from chaos legion edition belongs to water unit. Even this monster no ability he has 3 range attack with 4 mana cost to used this card in the battlr field. And the last position i put Igor Darkspear an epic monster from chaos legion edition belongs to water unit. He has 2 range attack and have stunt ability.
Next i want to explain a little about my opponent lineup. He/she used fire unit with Tarsa as summoner. Mostly my opponent used monster with malee attack and little armor. I believe i got win woth my strategy.
