Hi there, this is Lucky ali, and currently I am presenting the post of Splinterlands social media challenge. Visit my previous Splinterlands social media challenge as well. Once in a while, I prefer to talk differently from the battle, but this time it is again a battle, and this time I have a different ruleset with the combination that you can use. I think this is not gonna comfortable for the modern player because I am a wild player and the cards used are wild. I have 90% wild cards, which is why I have to play modern, and I'm also enjoying it. But that does not mean this is not gonna helpful for the modern players, of course, it is useful for them, but they have to find alternative cards for that. Choose wisely, and let's break down this battle.


Battle Rules


https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_armored-up_150.png Armored Up: This is the rule that I have featured here in this battle and also used the team according to this ruleset. It is just a simple rule that adds 2+ armors
https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_heavy-hitters_150.png Heavy hitters: This rule does not need a team change, so that is why I have ignored it. This rule adds knock-out ability to each monster

Sr. No. Card Instruction
1. https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/reward/Djinn%20Oshannus_lv3.png Favorite monster for the first position because it can protect against both melee, ranged, and magic attacks. Also, backing it up using a tank heal monster is a great idea.
2. https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/reward/Furious%20Chicken_lv3.png You can assume the importance of this card by just seeing its type and man. It is a neutral 0 mana card, which means most valuable especially in small mana battles
3. https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/reward/Ruler%20of%20the%20Seas_lv3.png This card does not need any introduction because it is the oldest legendary powerful monster in the Splinterlands gaming world. I have introduced it many times, so I don't think it needs an introduction
4. https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/beta/Crustacean%20King_lv5.png Ranged attack monster with tank heal ability, and also it has low mana, which means a perfect choice for such a battle. It healed the health of Djinn Oshannus during the battle; otherwise, he would be no more.
5. https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Torrent%20Spawn_lv1.png 0 mana card in water splinter and very useful for the low mana battles. It can play a big role in the battles, however, in this battle, I have taken it as an extra card

The Battle

BATTLE► https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_83e3e1ad9bfcffc5a89a0c83a233ea45

Round 1 - Opponent lost Halfling refugee. Round 2 - Opponent lost fina voxom.
Round 3 - Opponent lost Ujurak Elder, Kha'zi conjurer, and Pyrewatch devil. I WIN

You can see I did not even lose a single card in this battle, it is because of the strategy. In such battles, using only magic attack monsters is key, and that is exactly what I did, and also I have protected the first monster by using the tank heal ability card Crystacean King. One more thing, I have used two 0 mana cards that can protect against the extra attacks, as well as they can do extra attacks without costing even a single mana. How good is this?


Targetting directly to health is a key in armored up


There is another rule, which is heavy hitters, but as I told you, my main focus is armored up because that is the rule that directly affects the cards. Countering cards with extra armor by using ranged and melee attack monsters foolish decision because ranged and melee attack monsters hit on armor, but when you attack using magic attacks, then that directly hits the health, and armor can't save the health. That's the reason to try to use magic attack monsters as many as you can in the armored up ruled battle.
