Explosive Weaponry and Melee Mayhem - the best strategy of this combat rules are the following:
Attack - Pick monsters with high speed, with the ability of swiftness, slow, snipe, opportunity and scattershot.
Defense - Pick a monster who has a shield, thorn, reflection shield, demoralize for melee, headwinds for range and silence for magic.
THE BATTLE BEGINS
Reminder...
Always check the recently used summoners and monsters used by the enemy so that you can predict what he/she is going to use. The enemy uses Selena Sky a legendary dragon summoner it gives +1 additional range attack for all the range monster partner with the Death element.
LINE UP
As expected the enemy uses Selena Sky, I counter it with Quix the Devious partner with Light Element. Quix has the ability to reduce the range attack and the speed of the enemy.
🅟🅔🅛🅐🅒🅞🅡 🅒🅞🅝🅙🅤🅡🅔🅡 - Very Useful tank in a low mana battle, a good counter to those low health magic because of his magic reflect it has also a flying ability which give him a chance to dodge the physical attack of the enemy.
🅢🅤🅝🅚🅐🅘 🅗🅐🅡🅥🅔🅢🅣🅔🅡 - With reach ability, I put in the second position as a sub-tank it is also very useful when it comes to explosive weaponry rules because it has a 2 armor, 3 health and 3 speed.
🅣🅘🅜🅔 🅜🅐🅖🅔 - Support and damage dealer, One of my favourite cards because of her attack speed, 2 magic damage and her slow ability.
🅓🅐🅧 🅟🅐🅡🅐🅖🅞🅝 - Amplifier, I always use this card when I am using a monster who have magic reflect, thorn and backfire to amplify the return damage.
🅢🅣🅘🅣🅒🅗 🅛🅔🅔🅒🅗 - Additional damage dealer.
🅟🅞🅡🅣🅐🅛 🅢🅟🅘🅝🅝🅔🅡 - I placed it in the last position as a defense against sneaky monster of the enemy because it has 2 armor, 2 range attack and 4 health which can withstand in few rounds and it is also advantage to use this in explosive weaponry rule to maximize the damage into the enemies card.
Round 1 - Time mage attack 1st followed by Silent Sha-vi and Skeleton Assassin it damage and breaks the armor of Portal Spinner and kill the Stitch Leech.
Round 2 - Time mage attack first and it kills Riftwing and Crypt Bettle. Portal Spinner and Skeleton Assassin fall this round, the Fly ability and double slow ability of Time mage and Quix was a very big help Pelacor Conjurer dodge the attack of Silent Sha-vi. Pixie was killed by magic reflect.
Round 3 - Time mage attack and killed Silent Sha-vi followed by Dax Paragon and it ends the battle with my victory.
Did my strategy work?
Yes, I won the battle. As long as you understand the combat rules, study the enemies card and counter it there's a high chance that you will win.
What I will do differently next time?
I will climb up in higher league to see the other ability of the cards.
Do I like Portal Spinner?
Yes, because of her scattershot ability you just need to pair her with good cards.
That's all and thank you!
