SHARE YOUR BATTLE Weekly Challenge! CENTAURI MAGE

Hi guys, in this week's Splinterlands Share Your Battle Challenge, we have been tasked to fight a match with Centauri Mage. For those who doesn't know, Centauri Mage is a earth monster who has the Return Fire ability (when hit with a ranged attack, monsters with return fire will return reduced damage back to their attacker), when the level of the card goes up he gains 1 more hability on level 5, repair (restores some armor to the friedly monster whose armor has taken the most damage).

My opponent history shows me that he likes to play mage water deck, with Alric, so i tried to play against that. My line-up for the game was the following:

For those of you who doesn't know, water deck now have a incredible card (at least in the low level leagues) the Venari Wavesmith, who giver armor for all allies. So, to play against that i put Sporcerer in my line-up who breaks 2 armor of all enemies. The earth deck has a very balanced deck to play against melee and magic damage (with Mylor Crowling + Mushroom Seer), so i put Unicorn Mustang as the main tank (because of his ability void), Centauri Mage as a off tank (as the card has a high health and don't have ranged attack, that is a good card to put in the second or the last position), and 4 damage dealers in the back.

As the result of the game my enemy couldn't do basically nothing against the Unicorn Mustang. Even with Djinn Oshannus (magic damage with void hability), i beat him very easy.

This card has very high hp, but don't have a high damage. I like to play Centauri Mage when the mana cap is very high (like 40+). Like i said before, i think Centauri can be played as off tank, last position or as your main tank when the rules don't allow the use of melee damage monsters.
