Hello Splintermates and Fellow Hiveans,
Have a wonderful day despite crypto is being bloody today. This weeks Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge: Battlefield Breakdowns!, i am going to share "THE RISE OF THE OLIVIA OF THE BROOKS" where i am going to share a battle championing olivia of the brook and her team.


WHO IS OLIVIA OF THE BROOK
- Olivia of the brook is part of the rebellion soulbound reward card. It is part of the epic but when its mimic ability start to copy ones ability she become a goddess and become a super legendary despite being epic . She is one of the most loved rebellion reward card due to its unique ability that tribes better when the battle goes longer. Olivia of the brook is my most used epic reward card due to its dual attack and mimic ability specially when paired with eternal tofu and monster with heal ability because when the battle goes longer my victory percentage rise.

* OLIVIA OF THE BROOK - is a 6 mana epic rebellion soulbound reward card. At level 3 it has 1 magic attack and 1 melee attack. At level 3 it has also 1 armor, 4 health and 3 speed. At level 3 it has two abilities; opportunity ability (targets the enemy unit with the least health) and mimic ablity ( At the beginning of round 2 and each following round, gain a random ability from the enemy team. Dispel removes one mimicked ability in the order they were gained. Debilitations, Targeting abilities, Ambush, Weapons Training, Flank, Reach, Charge, and Taunt cannot be mimicked).

# THE BATTLE
This battle is a 32 mana battle with equal opportunity, reverse speed and ferocity battle ruleset. My opponent uses eternal tofu as his archon summoning legendary and epic monster such as mantaroth, venka the vile, sathe toledo, halfing refugee, balckmoor jinx and elanor bravefoot while i used also a similar archon eternal tofu summoning no legendaries but the star of the day olivia of the brook with its companion halfing refugee with its spooky skin, skyspire leopard, nimbledook explorer ( to provide armor ), mana warden (to provide shield to olivia of the brook) and meriput magician with its spooky skin ( to provide heal to friendly unit and intended to be mimic by olivia of the brook) .

# ROUND 1

In this round 1 my nimbledook explorer armor strike illuminated my opponent elanor bravefoot while providing armor to friendly units. But my halfing refugee with spooky skin was illuminated by venka the vile.

# ROUND 2

In this round 2 again my nimbledook explorer illuminated my opponent blackmoor jinx. But my opponent venka the vile illuminated my skyspire leopard and my skyspire leopard also illumiated my opponent venka the vile due to its retaliate ability.

# ROUND 3 & ROUND 4

For round 3 nothing is illuminated but my olivia of the brook already mimicking abilities that will be useful when the battle goes longer specially my opponent got a strong tank mantaroth. In round 4 my team jointly illuminated my opponent satha toledo which is one of the most important to take out in my opponent tema that is providing heal. The heal was been already mimic by olivia of the brook.

# ROUND 5

In this round 5 the battle start with me having the advantage where i got 4 against 2 monster but my opponent halfing refugee illuminated my mana warden. I didn't worry as mana warden already provided its intention to provide shield to olivia of the brook. As you can see olivia of the brook got 12 abilities now and 13 health due to the scavenger ability provided by eternal tofu.

# ROUND 6 & ROUND 7

For round 6 my team already achieved a sustained life strategy where i got a backline triage and a double heal to my nimbledook explorer mostly controlled by olivia of the brook as she receives the triage and scavenger ability provided by eternal tofu plus most of the abilities she mimic both to friendly and opponents ability. So in round 7 my team illuminated my opponent halfing refugee.

# ROUND 8 TO ROUND 13

With my team already achieved a sustain life and my opponent left is the legendary mantaroth it is just a matter of time to achieved victory as mantaroth got no heal and cannot sustain its health. Through the round i slowly little by little taken mantaroth life as my team can only provide 4 damage per round that includes the thorns . My opponent cause thorns to me also but i got a triage that sustain the health of olivia the brook. As you can see the star of the day olivia of the brook became the architect of the game to win against the epic and legendary opponents.

# THE LUCKY WIN

Now i achieved a lucky win against a very strong opponent where i thought i gonna loss due to my opponents strong team that composed of epics and legendaries as the likes of mantaroth and vanka the vile.

# MY STRATEGY AND POSITIONING
|ARCHON |UNIT 1|UNIT 2|UNIT 3|UNIT 4|UNIT 5|UNIT 6|
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|Eternal Tofu| Halfling Refugee|Skyspire Leopard|Nimbledook Explorer|Olivia of the Brook|Mana Warden|Meriput Magicain|

In this 32 mana battle with equal opportunity, reverse speed and ferocity battle ruleset, my strategy and positioning is to used eternal tofu as my archon to benifit from its added tactic ability scavenger and triage which to be given to the star of the day OLIVIA OF THE BROOK that will later own became the architect of the game. My second intent is to used mana warden to provide shield into olivia of the brook place at 5th position then used monster with heal - halfing refugee in the first position and also monster with tank heal meriput magician which i placed at the last position . I then added nimbledook explorer at 3rd position to provide armor for melee and ranged attack and lastly added skypire leopard as support tank due to its void armor against magic making the game play longer and allowing olivia of the brook to mimic everyones ability which ended play well at the end.
