The Battle
| Battle Rulesets | Description | Info |
|---|---|---|
| HOLY PROTECTION | All Monsters have the Divine Shield ability. | Monsters that normally have this ability do not get it twice. The trick to win in this ruleset is to fill all 6 slots of your lineup and use monsters with Blast and Double Strike. Use a monster or summoner that has Resurrect to use this ruleset at its maximum potential. |
| WHAT DOESN'T KILL YOU | All Monsters have the Enrage ability. | Increase Melee attack and Speed when damaged. Values are multiplied by 1.5 and rounded up. Prefer Melee monsters with Sneak, and Opportunity in the back row. |
| FABFOUR | Up to Four Units can be used. | You can only 4 units. |
Lineup
This was a modern bronze tournament game, with high mana and only with 4 monsters.
| Card | Strategy |
|---|---|
| https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Kelya%20Frendul_lv2_gold.png | Kelya Frendul - She is a good starting point in this type of battle. Speed and Armor boost are important in almost every game and good combo with Egrage ability. |
| https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/promo/Arkemis%20the%20Bear_lv3_gold.png | Arkemis the Bear - My best natural big tank armor and halfling ability good for almost every game. I need to fill the board with a good high mana monster and the Bear is perfect for this. |
| https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Baakjira_lv1.png | Baakjira - My favorite tank/off-tank monster of the water monsters. Very good health with heal and void and good support abilities. |
| https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/soulbound/Kulu%20Mastermind_lv1.png | Kulu Mastermind - One of the key legendary card in the actual soulbound set. Very good fit with Baakjira. |
| https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/reward/Djinn%20Oshannus_lv1.png | Djinn Oshannus - My old all-time favorite legendary reward card with excellent speed and good magic damage. Nowadays I use it a little less, but still a strong monster and a good fit to full the board with high mana monsters in this game. |
Battle - Replay
Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?
Luckily, yes.
But there is a better team:

Tournament Results
Unfortunately I arrive in the last minutes of the tournament, so I didn't have enough time to submit all my team :(
What I don't like in the new tournament format?
- Firstly cause it is free many players join these tournaments
- Is very hard to go to the second round, so If you lose 3-4 games, you have no chance
- In that case most of the time I do not play the rest of the games
- And only a few places get paid
- And because of the above there are plenty of fled games
But a very good change is coming, more players get paid and this solves most of the problems I think:
