Social Media Challenge | The rulesets ruled the battle again! 😊

This week I brought a **Wild Ranked** battle, where there would be a very dangerous ruleset and if I do not pay enough attention to it there would be a huge chance that all of my monsters will burn to death! 😁

The mana cap was 42, which is more than enough to build a solid lineup, but it is important to use a good strategy how to position my monsters, because the **Explosive Weaponry** ruleset will give the **Blast** ability to all the monsters on the battlefield, which means that whoever attacks their target he or she will be able to deal indirect damage to the monsters adjacent to them. 😇 The **Briar Patch** ruleset will give the **Thorns** ability to all the monsters as well, so whenever a **Melee** attack mosnter hit their target they will reflect half of damage received back to their attacker. 😉 The **Need for Speed** ruleset will limit the available mosnter pool a bit, because it only allows to choose monsters with three or higher **Speed** for my lineup. 😋

The **Pembrook Nymph** cost 6 mana, which means that she is quite expensive compared to some of the cheaper **Summoners**, but her ability is to give +1 **Health** to all of her friendly monsters, which is also not that strong. On the otherhand her last ability is to bring one additional **Gladiator** monster into this battle which is quite amazing, because that would be a huge advantage over my opponent if I pick that monster carefully. 💪

**Noa the Just** will be my main tank who doesn't have any attack, but his high **Speed**, **Armor** and his **Dodge** ability will ensure that he will give enough time to my **Isgald Vorst** to start to do his killing. He also has the **Rust** ability, which will decrease the **Armor** to all of the enemy monsters by two. 😇

The **Djinn Oshannus** is an excellent tank and damage dealer, because he has a lot of **Health** and **Speed** to protect himself against the enemy attacks especially against the **Magic** ones, because he has the **Void** ability as well. He also has +2 **Magic** attack, which is always good, but right now the most important thing is to survive the **Blast** damage as long as possible. 🤗

The **Venari Marksrat** is always a good option to any team, because he cost only three mana and has +1 **Ranged** attack. The most important feature of him is his **Martyr** ability, which means that he will increase the stats of his nearby monsters if he dies. The **Blast** ability on the enemy monsters will help him to die quickly and activate his ability! 😁

The **Venari Wavesmith** is one of my favorite monster since I started playing **Splinterlands** and he was my first monster that I bought. He cost onyl 5 mana, which is nice and he has the **Protect** ability, which means that he will increase the **Armor** to all of his friendly monsters by two until he is alive. He also has +2 **Magic** damage, which is pretty good and makes him to a good damage dealer as well. 😎

**Isgald Vorst** will be my most important **Gladiator** monster in this battle and that is why I brought **Pembrook Nymph** as my **Summoner**. He is a **Melee** attack monster and he has the **Opportunity** ability, which means that he will be able to attack the lowest **Health** monster from the enemy team and on top of that if he manages to kill them he will increase his own stat by one using his **Bloodlust** ability. The only disadvantage of him is the **Briar Patch** ruleset, because whenever he hit his target he will receive reflected damage back to him. Hopefully his **Armor** and my **Repairer** will help him a lot to outsurvive this weaknes. 😉

The **Swamp Spitter** is an excellent monster for this battle, because even though he has +2 Ranged attack damage, which works nicely to damage down his enemies. My first reason to brought him is that he has the Repair ability as well, which will allow him to repair two armor piece on a friendly monster who recently lost some of his Armor. 😇

My opponent brought **Quix the Devious** who is a **Dragon** Summoner and his power is to reduce the **Speed** and **Ranged** attack of all of his enemy monsters. My opponent also brought a monster with the **Protect** ability, but my **Noa** took care of it and countered that with his **Rust** ability. 😉 The enemy team attacked first and they targeted my **Noa**, but he dodged quite a lot of their attacks, which gave a lot of time to my team. My **Isgald** almost managed to kill their **Runeseer Sevaya**, but she survived with only one **Health**. Not much happened in the first round apart from the fact that most of the enemy monsters lost most of their **Health**, but they will start the second round as well. 😜 My **Noa** shined again and dodged three of their attacks and luckily even their **Deeplurker** couldn't kill my **Venari Marksrat** thanks to his **Armors**. From the half of the second round my monsters started attacking their lineup and my **Wavesmith** killed their tank and off-tank with only one shot and even my **Marksrat** killed two of their monster with his only one **Ranged** attack and his **Blast** damage. 💪 They had only two **Ranged** attack monster left and their **Axemaster** still couldn't hit my **Noa** with his **Double Strike** ability, which resulted my team to win this battle for me. 😇
