TEAM ARRANGEMENT

Summoner: OBSIDIAN
Obsidian is a rare earth summoner with the ability to offer a plus one magic damage to the magic monsters under its call. It has a mana cap of 4 and ranges from level one to level eight. For now, she is my most preferred earth summoner

Defense Position: Venari Knifer
Venari Knifer is a high-speed defense card with gives it the advantage of attacking its opponents first. What makes this card thick isn't only the high speed but also the fact that melee attack monsters incur two damage when they attack this monster. Knifer is a melee attack monster capable of attacking from the front position unless the battle rule says otherwise. The other stats from lvl1 knifer includes; a 6 mana cap, 4 speed, 7 health, and 2 melee damage

GOBLIN THIEF
GOBLIN THIEF is a common earth element monster. It has the sneak ability from level 1-5, and sneak with shatter ability from level 6-10. Level one Goblin has a 4 mana cap, 3 health, 2 fighting speed, and 2 melee damage. It was used in this battle to effect damage on the opponent from behind

---

KHMER PRINCESS
KHMER PRINCESS always fits perfectly in a game because of its low mana cap. She is a magic attack monster with a default one magic damage which is enhanced to two magic damages by the summoner used. At Level one, she has 2 health, 1 speed, and 2 mana cap and can attack from any position. From level 6, she develops the tank heal ability and triage ability at its final level

---

GOBLIN PSYCHIC
GOBLIN PSYCHIC is my favorite earth element monster. This monster is absolutely amazing and is filled with abilities from different levels. At level one, it has the tank heal ability, from level four, it develops an additional affliction ability, Silent ability from level 7 and dispel at its final level. It is a magic attack monster with 2 default magic damage which was also enhanced here by the summoner. With the tank heal Ability, it refills the health of the front-line monster. It has a 6 mana cap, 3 health, and 1 speed and was used in this position to last longer in the battle since it is that important

---

XENITH ARCHER
XENITH ARCHER, the ranged attack monster with a low mana cap of 2, 2 healths, and 1 attacking speed. It mostly comes in to complete the team and was used in front of the last monster to get protection.

---

REGAL PERYTON
REGAL PERYTON is more an ordinary card but not ordinary at all. I think this card is one flying monster that has the highest chance of evading melee attacks. It is a high-speed monster with 5, 5 mana cap, and 1 default magic damage enhanced here by the summoner and 6 healths in level one. It is used in the last position to be able to waste some sneak attackers' hit

Comment on my strategy

The Outcome of the game showed that the strategy was not a bad one though if i were to replay the game again, i may consider replacing Goblin Thief with another magic monster. It was a nice game and the result says it all.

Comment on Venari Knifer

Venari Knifer is such an important card though not my favorite defense card but it can be helpful when used. The thorn ability makes it a double strike monster. Finally, i think i will use it more often now after seeing what it can do from this week's challenge.
