Battle Mage Secrets Weekly Challenge with Taking Sides

Splinterlands on of the best card battle game on hive blockchain. This week BATTLE MAGE SECRETS Weekly Challenge is Taking Sides. This challenge is easy and also requires some basic understanding of cards used in this battle. In this ruleset no neutral units may be used. As in this battle Monsters with Ranged attack are very helpful so I decided to use some ranged attack monsters with high health. In this battle I used "Pelacor Conjurer" as tank card having 6 health with flying ability with extra ability like magic reflect. This ability adds on every friendly monster. In this battle I used one thorns ability card and one opportunity ability card. At the end I used strong ranged attack monster with 3 ranged attack. This battle was low mana 19 so I decided to use some strong back line cards. This battle was earth vs life summoners.

1. Non-flying Monsters take 2 Melee damage at the end of each round.

2. Neutral Monsters may not be used in battles.

3. All Monsters have the Magic Reflect ability.

As battle was low mana so I decided to use some extra abilities cards and also try to fill all spots. I decided to use some strong back line cards having opportunity and thorn ability. I used "Pelacor Conjurer" as tank with no attack, 6 health and flying / magic reflect ability. On 2nd position I used "Manticore" two malee attack and 8 health with flying, reach and thorn with magic reflect ectra ability. On 3rd position I used "Celestial Harpy" one malee attack and 2 health with opportunity and flying ability. On 4th position I used "Thunderbird" one ranged attack and 4 health with flying ability. On last position I used Fire Spitter 3 ranged attack and 5 health with flying and magic reflect ability. I am very happy with my team and if my tank card survives then my other cards will destroy the enemy team monsters. Let’s discuss my team one by one.

Pelacor Conjurer

I used Pelacor Conjurer Common life Unit as a tank card. This card has no malee attack and 6 health with flying and magic reflect ability. I used this card on tank position in low mana fights as this card is very helpful with high speed of 5 and magic reflect ability. This card is the best choice for tank card in low mana battles.

Manticore

On 2nd position I used Manticore Epic dragon Unit with reach, thorn, flying and magic reflect ability. I always use this card in all mana fights because of its reach / thorn abilities and 8 health. Hope this card could damage enemy monsters with thorn ability on every turn.

Celestial Harpy

On 3rd position I used Celestial Harpy Rare life Unit. This card has one malee attacks and 3 health with opportunity, flying and magic reflect ability. I always used this card as my back line card as this card eliminate enemy weaker cards first.

Thunderbird

On 4th position, I used Thunderbird Epic life Unit. This card has one ranged attack and 4 health but this card's flying and magic reflect ability is very strong. So hope this card perform well and do maximum damage to enemy monsters.

Fire Spitter

On last position, I used Fire Spitter Epic dragon Unit. This card has 3 ranged attack and 5 health but this card's flying and magic reflect ability is very strong. So hope this card perform well and do maximum damage to tank card and enemy monster cards.

So my strategy in this battle was very simple as in this battle I mostly rely on my opportunity and flying ability cards. I used "Pelacor Conjurer" as a tank card having 5 speed and hope this card miss enemy's malee attack. If my tank card survives some rounds then hope my other cards could eliminate enemy's back line monsters. My thorn and opportunity ability cards are very strong so they can do some damage to enemy back line monsters cards. I think in this battle my reach ability card could performe well and hoped "Manticore" could do damage to enemy monsters with thorn ability on every turn. Also hoped that my cards could not miss any attack and did proper damage to enemy back line monsters. Overall my entire back line cards did 4 ranged and 3 malee attack damage to enemy team. This battle lasted for 8 rounds.

My strategy failed although my all cards performed well. Our today's battle challenge with "Taking Sides" not completed. In this battle my enemy brought a strong earth team with good combination. My enemy team brought Immortalis Summoner which reduce my all cards one health and gave void and shatter ability to all enemy monsters. This void ability became the reason to my loss in this game. I eliminate my enemy all monsters cards in 3rd round and only left one card Regal Peryton because of void ability this card survived my cards one magic reflect attack and I lost this battle in 8th round. I liked this new change of weekly battle challenge from monsters to ruleset, so we can learn some new methods how to tackle enemy in any specific ruleset. You can watch this battle on My Battle link.
