For those of you who have seen the previous Share Your Battle, I rented a level 1 Beatrix Ironhand in Gold II and got absolutely decimated, with a horrible modifier matchup, and decided I needed to do a part 2 to really showcase Beatrix in a more ideal situation.
She is an Epic card from the Untamed Edition set. She has 2 Ranged Attack, 4 Speed, 5 Health, and Close Range with a Mana Cost of 6
I've gone ahead and recruited a level 1 again, which should be perfectly usable in Bronze
As you can see from her stats, she is a fast, bulky ranged attacker that's able to take the slot of a melee attacker, her ability, Close Range allows her to attack even in position 1. Depending on the situation this will make her very useful. Please note that at level 3 she gets Thorns as well. Making her quite a nasty character to attack!
The Battle Ahead
The Modifiers were No Armor, and 22 Mana. As you can see, my opponent was relying on Taunt to allow his Legendary to Life Leech and Heal through my cards. Unfortunately my healing was more effective due to Nectar Queen's massive health pool! Beatrix deals a good amount of damage here, and helps Nectar Queen tank by whittling down their health. These three make a decent pair!
Reflection
I think Beatrix is a pretty decent mid mana Attacker for Bronze, and her close range ability makes her a nice off-tank to position right after your Nectar Queen or Unicorn Mustang. I was right, and the first normal battle I had in Bronze (One without a legendary summoner) I won, even with the opponent using a fairly powerful legendary card. I think this speaks to Ironhand's strength!
