Hello guys!
Yeeeeey I'm back again with my Splinterlands post. I'm writing this post to follow Splinterlands Mage Secrets Battle Challenge Keep Your Distance. These are rulesets where Melee Monsters cannot be used in this batle. To be honest, I often encounter these rulesets during battles, both in Brawl and push rank. It just so happened that I found a very interesting battle with Keep Your Distance rulesets, where the Void Dragon will be the main star in this balle because after the Enrage of the Void Dragon and Martyr is active, this monster becomes a very annoying monster and almost untouched by opponents.
Well, I'm neither a proplayer nor a tournament hero. I just enjoys sharing strategy and battles that I find interesting in my own view. I played on modern and wild battles on Diamond leagues, and maybe the battle strategies I'd share weren't suitable to apply in other leagues because the differences in ability that open up are different from each league.
Ok guys, without further ado, let's get straight to the heart of this post!
BATTLE PREPARATION
Challenge Rules
RULESET: Keep Your Distance
Description:
Units with melee attacks may not be used.

Use Headwinds and Return Fire to counter ranged attacks.
Units with 2 types of attack (which include melee) cannot be used.
Battle Rulesets
The rulesets in this battle are:
- Keep Your Distance (Monsters with Melee attack may not be used in the battles)
- Close Range (Range attacks may be used in the first position in battles)
- Mana Capacity 37
- Active Element Life and Dragon.
Line Up and Strategy
I don't think there is a specific strategy that should be used in the Keep Your Distance rulesets. We just can't use melee mnster, so the tanks that we can use are Non damage tanks and Magic monsters that have large HP. So I will use a combination of Dragon and Life elements. You need to know that I only use Chaos Legion Monsters, as well as some R monsters of the same issue. So I really had a hard time in finding Tanks. In addition, consideration of using monster support is also very necessary. You can see the full line-up of both teams. I will also explain the strategy of each monster in the table below.
| Monster | Position | Abilities | Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quix The Devious | Summoner | -1 Range, -1 Speed | As you know that Melee monsters cannot be used in this battle, so using Quix The Devious which reduces the attack range and speed of all enemy monsters is a good choice. I will also take advantage of high speed to increase my chances of winning. |
| Venari Marksrat | First | Martyr, Snare | Because of the Close Range rulesets, it doesn't matter if you use Range monsters in the first position, so in addition to utilizing Martyr from Venari Marksrat, you can also be an attacker. The purpose of using martyrs here is so that the stats of the Void Dragon which is the main tank in this formation which is right next to the Venari Marksrat will increase. |
| Void ragon | Second | Flying, Void, Phase | Although the starting position is in second place, this monster is a previous Tank. This monster has a very high speed privilege and also has a large Health Point. Furthermore, the Void ability possessed will reduce the magic attacks received. At this level, the Phase ability is also active, so both Magic and range attacks will have a big chance of missing a beat. |
| Adelade Brightwing | Third | Flying, Repair, Resurrect, Immunity, Swiftness | Adelade Brightwing will be the most important support in this battle because of his abilities. Because the monsters I use don't have armor, so Repair ability is useless in this battle, It's just that, the Resurrect of this monster will provide another story that is difficult to guess, if my plan to activate Marty from the Venari Marksrat 2x can succeed. Swiftness ability is also very useful because it will increase the speed of all friend monsters, which means the chance of winning also increases. |
| Time Mage | Fourth | Slow, Rust | Time Mage has a role as a Support as well as an attacker. This is because in addition to having 3 Magic damage, this Monster also has a Slow ability that will reduce all opponents' speed, and also Rust which will remove 2 Armor from all enemy monsters. |
| Chaos Dragon | Fifth | Flying, Scattershot, Blast, Blind | Chaos Dragon with its stats and abilities is the main attacker as well as the killing machine in my formation, so I deliberately put it in the most vulnerable position so that this monster can be the last monster to die. |
BATTLEFIELD ARENA

I've also included a youtube video of this battle that you can play right away.
This battle is indeed very interesting and can spoil the eyes of the audience with the Void Dragon show which is almost untouched by the opponent's monsters because almost all of the opponent's monster attacks are missed. This might also make the opponent frustrated and very annoyed if he sees his monster attacks that continuously miss hitting the Void Dragon.
