Team Arrangement


Summoner: KELYA FRENDUL

KELYA FRENDUL is a rare water element summoner with the advantage of +1 shield and +1 speed to the monster it summons. It also has a decent 4 mana cap that makes it a good fit for low mana cap battles.

First Position: CRUEL SETHROPOD

CRUEL SETHROPOD is a melee attack monster which is attack only from the first position. It has a 1 melee damage and is quite relevant for low mana cost battles.
CS, is not among my favorite monsters and i hardly use them in my battles. This is because, they hard have any damage effect on the other higher melee monsters, but like i have previously pointed out, they are good fit for low mana cap battles
In this battle, CS was chosen for it high shield to counter melee attacks and a health refilling monster add in the lineup to help it regain its health in case of any loss of health.

Position 2: RIVER NYMPH

RIVER NYMPH is such a lovely rare card with cleanse ability. Its ability takes effect on the monster in the first position to counter every negative effect. RN has a 4 mana cap, 2 speed, 3 health, and a 1 magic damage.
It is positioned second in this game to counter the negative effects on the first monster and to follow suit afterward.

Position 3: MERDAALI GUARDIAN

MERDAALI GUARDIAN is no attack monster. It plays a crucial role which is restoring the health of the monster in front. It is a rare card with a 3 mana cap. I usually option to position it at the middle of my team to avoid it being the first target.
Keeping it behind, make it an easy target for sneak attacker and most times, it is also an easy target for snipe attack monster irrespective of its position. The good thing is to protect it so that before it gets eliminated, the damage will have been done already to your opponent.

Position 4: ICE PIXIE

ICE PIXIE is a magic attack monster and also a flying monster that is known for high speed. As a flying monster, she has the advantage of evading melee attacks and she was used in this fight to carry out underground damage.

Position 5: DEEPLURKER

DEEPLURKER is a melee attack monster with the opportunity ability. This monster impacts a 3 melee damage on opposition monsters and it attacks the weakest monster. It was used in behind position to protect the vulnerable ones from behind and take out the opposition monsters one by one

Comment on my strategy

My strategy went as planed and the game took a 4 round battle to eliminate the opposition monsters. It was really a great fight.


Comment on the CRUEL SETHROPOD monster

ordinarily, as i previously stated, this monster isn't among my favorite and i hardly make use of it unless I'm left with only it as option.


Finally, it was a great battle and i enjoyed every moment of it.
