This week I brought a **Wild Ranked** battle, where I battled against a pretty strong team, because the mana cap was quite big, so both of us was able to bring whatever we wanted. ๐Ÿ˜

Ruleset Description
Counterspell All Monsters have the Magic Reflect ability.
Equal Opportunity All Monsters have the Opportunity ability.
The mana cap was 79, which is absolutley amazing and it was quite a long time that I got a huge mana cap like this. I always love to play under such a condition, because I can use any kind of strategy or monsters and no need to worry about their mana cost in this battle. ๐Ÿ˜‡ The **Counterspell** ruleset will give the **Magic Reflect** ability to all the monsters on the battlefield, so whenever a **Magic** attack monster hit its target they will reflect reduced damage back to their attacker. (*The damage will be equal to the damage of attacker did and divided by 2, which will be rounded up.*) The **Equal Opportunity** ruleset is one of my favorite, because it allows me to use a different strategy that I ususally use, because it will give the **Opportunity** ability to all the monsters, which means that monsters with this ability may attack from any position and will target the enemy monster with the lowest **Health**. ๐Ÿค—

My lineup and the decision behind it!

Summoner Eternan Brute

The **Eternan Brute** cost six mana and his ability to decrease two **Armor** from my opponent monsters and I might be able to bring an additional **Gladiator** monster as well if I will find another one. ๐Ÿ˜

Main Tank Arkemis the Bear image.png

**Arkemis the Bear** is always a good choice as a tank, because he has a lot of **Health** and quite good **Melee** attack damage even on its own. More importantly he has the **Protect** ability, which will give +2 **Armor** to all of his friendly monsters as long as he is alive. This is important to protect my backline against the enemy **Opportunity** attacks. ๐Ÿ˜‰

The Protector Ferox Defender image.png

The **Ferox Defender** is an excellent off-tank for this battle. His mana cost is eight, which is expensive in a less mana cap battle, but in exchange he has quite a lot of **Health** and **Armor**, which will help him a lot to take as much as damage possible from the enemy team. He also has the **Protect** ability, which will give +2 Armor to all of his friendly monsters as long as he is alive. ๐Ÿ’ช

The Martyr Venari Marksrat image.png

The **Venari Marksrat** is my first **Martyr** monster against monsters attacking from with the **Opportunity** abiliy. He doesn't have too much stats, but he doesn't need to be strong at all, because he has one important ability, which is the **Martyr**. That means he will increase the stats of the monsters next to him by one in case he dies. ๐Ÿ˜œ

Main Damage Dealer Drybone Raider image.png

The **Drybone Raider** also has two different kind of attack like my **Tatiana**, but on top of that he also has the **Double Strike** ability, which means that he will attack four times (two each) with his attacks. He has the **Shatter** ability as well, so if he deals any damage to his target he will destroy all of their remaining armor. ๐Ÿ˜‹

Damage Dealer and Martyr Firecaller image.png

The **Firecaller** will be my second **Martyr** for this battle, because the **Equal Opportunity** ruleset will make sure that my **Martyr** monsters will die quickly, so they will be able to activate their ability. Apart from her **Martyr** abilty, she is a very good **Ranged** damage dealer as well. ๐Ÿ˜Š

The Gladiator Tatiana Blayde image.png

**Tatiana Blayde** is a **Gladiator** monster and such she has the **Bloodlust** ability, which means that she is able to increase all of her stats if she manages to kill her target. She also has two different kind of attack and one of them is **Melee**, so that is why I was able to bring her into this battle even though her other attack is **Ranged**. ๐Ÿค—

My opponent brought **Helios Matriarch** who is a **Dragon** Summoner and her power is similar to my **Summoner** to be able to bring one additional **Gladiator** monster if she wants. The difference is that she will give +1 **Speed** to all of her monsters, which will made them slightly quicker. ๐Ÿ˜œ My opponent had quite a lot of firepower and they quickly killed my **Venari Marksrat** who succesfully activated his **Martyr** ability to increase the stats of my **Ferox Defender** and **Drybone Raider**. ๐Ÿ˜† My **Raider** had +3 **Melee** and **Ranged** attack and he used his **Double Strike** ability to kill their **Alvar** easily. The first round finished and not much happened, but in the beginning of the second round their **Quora** killed my **Firecaller** and sadly she managed to activated her **Bloodlust** ability, which increased her stats, but luckily my the death of my **Firecaller** also increased the stats of the monsters next to her. ๐Ÿ˜‡ My **Raider** had +4 attacks by now thanks to my **Firecaller** and when he attacked he killed their **Infantry** with ease and continued attacking their **Djinn Chwala**. Just before the second round finished their **Djinn Chwala** also died. In the third round I have lost my **Tatiana** against their **Quora** who increased her powers again with this kill. ๐Ÿ˜’ My **Drybone Raider** killed two of their monster in this round thanks to his **Double Strike** ability and only their **Quora** remained. Their **Quora** was quite powerful, but when my **Arkemis** attacked her he activated his **Halving** ability and reduced her attack damage by half. ๐Ÿ˜ I still had three monsters remaining and we had more than enough firepower to kill their **Quora** and my team was able to win this battle for me. ๐Ÿ’ช
