Heyyy yooooo
what's up Splinter Player around the world how are you doing? I want to share my battle using my scholar account in Balthazar guild. And since playing scholar account so that mean the battle is in Diamond Modern Format League.In this battle i want to share that we need to calculate everything not only just damage, but also speed and total HP too. Especially when comes in Back to Basic ruleset. All monster will lose their ability and attack sequentially from the faster to slower. And dont forget we still can utilize ability from our summoner. Not to forget that we can utilize the dual type attack into our line up. Thats why i said that in the last content that the more complete NFT card that you owned the better chance to win the battle like in this battle. Just slight different can make different outcome in the end (of course RNG is one of the factor too).
Okay since you guys know that the ruleset is Back to Basic lets knowing deeper about this ruleset.This ruleset description is Units lose all abilities.Summoner effects are still active. So, as i said before we really need to calculate the total HP and total damage. Dont forget to calculate the speed too. The fast we kill the opponent monster the more chance we wins the battle. Usually many player will using magic type monster to execute this ruleset. As i said in the content before using Immortalis is one advantage in this ruleset because Immortalis can give Void ability to all our team mate. And yeah still to calculate total HP and speed in this battle. But when comes in high manacap ruleset. it will be hard to calculate it accurately.
Strategy Phase
As you can see in the picture above this battle have 3 ruleset that make the calculation very complicated. The first ruleset is Equalizer that means all monster will be having health as much as the most health in battlephase. The second ruleset is Back to Basic that means all monster will losing all their ability. The third ruleset is Born Again that means all monster having a rebirth ability. The manacap that can be used is 49 that is above average and the only element that cannot be used in this battle is Life element. Since i am using scholar account so the cards that i have is very limited with only Chaos edition and some of rewards edition. And in Diamond League having limited card somehow can bring me to defeated. And what my strategy this time? You can check in the table below.
| Card | Position | Ability | Reason | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Summoner | -1 Health Void and Shatter Ability | In Back to Basic ruleset using this summoner is very common because the Void ability that given by this summoner. And because of that any magic monster that should be having advantage turns out to be burden when using this summoner. So the choice is using Immortalis or Quix in this ruleset. | ||
| Frontline Tanker | Even though the ability gone due the ruleset, this monster still have pretty good status at least as a tanker with high health and high melee damage. Hopefully that opponent speed are slower than this monster so this monster can give damage first to opponent frontline tanker first. | |||
| Secondline Tanker | Mycelic Slipspawn is the second monster in chaos edition that having prett good status for Back to Basic ruleset. Although i am a little bit distracted with the Equalizer ruleset that can make all monster in battlefield will having same health with the highest health monster in battlefield. that will make this monster and Grund can be as a bakfire too to my team if my team dont have enough attacker. | |||
| Attacker | Regal Peryton is one of monster that having pretty good magic attack with highest speed in Earth element. Thats why i still need using this monster as an attacker even i will know that opponent will using Immortalis too. But, this monster can be key to win sometimes with this speed. When opponent bringing range attack it will have chance to dodge the range attack by this speed. | |||
| Attacker | None | This monster is having high magic attack in maybe entire chaos edition. But this monster is very slow. Hopefully this monster can give some damage to opponent line up before got defeated. Also the health will follow the highest health in battlefield so it will be very hard to calculate the total attack with magic type monster. | ||
| Attacker | I still need to bringing range monster with the highest attack in range monster. So if opponent just using summoner that same with me, at least the range monster will giving hard time to opponent line up and maybe can defeated opponent line up easily with highest range damage. | |||
| Attacker | The last monster is Goblin Tower, this monster is pretty high damage in range type monster but this monster is very slow, just having 1 speed only but this monster having armor that can help withstand the blow from opponent range monster. But since i know that opponent will using Immortalis so i think the armor is pretty useless. So, i am placing this monster in the last line up. |
So, this is my line up. I think my line up is not bad either but i doubt that i can win this battle because seeing many player in Diamond league is very strong and having almost complete set of deck make me having disadvantage of choice that i am have. Especially when comes in rebellion edition or promo edition.
So what the result and how the battle? Curious right? Lets goo to the battlephase then, shall we?
Battlephase
Okay this time as i predicted that opponent will using Immortalis as summoner too. There will having much risk if using Quix as summoner due the magic attack can direct hit to Health instead armor. And void ability is better than debuff range attack. So, lets see how the opponent arrange their line up.
Round 1
Because the Back to Basic ruleset it will not as usual, the only same is both summoner gives ability,buff and debuff for both players monster. And because we choosing same summoner so both of players monster get 1 health debuff and having void and shatter ability.
Okay, after that the battle begins and the first attacker is My Regal Peryton attacking opponent Regal Peryton. Wait a minute, thats strange strategy here, opponent seems utilizing the speed from Regal Peryton and not using tanker at all. After that following by opponent Regal Peryton attacking my Grund, then opponent Runemancer Florre attacking my Grund with both magic and range damage. So this is the slight different between me and opponent. Runemancer Florre that having dual type attack that is magic and range attack. After that opponent Venari Seedsmith attacking my Grund too. Then my Mycelic Slipspawn attacking opponent Regal Peryton. Then my Grund missing attacking opponent Regal Peryton. I think opponent can gues very correctly that i am using Grund this time. thats why choosing Regal Peryton as a tanker is very cool decision. Then both Magi Of Chaos attacking each frontline tanker. and then both Hunter Jarx attacking frontliner too, But opponent Hunter Jarx missed attacking my Grund and my Jarx is succeded to attacking opponent Regal Peryton.then opponent Djinn Biljka defeated my Grund for the first time. And got rebirth again by the ruleset. Then my Goblin Tower defeated opponent Regal Peryton too. and got rebirth again.
Round 2
In round 2 still same both Regal Peryton attacking first, and not like in the last content this time the RNG is not sided with me, opponent Regal Peryton defeated my Grund first before got defeated by my Regal Peryton. After that opponent Runemancer Florre attacking my Mycelic Slipspawn then following by opponent Venari Seedsmith attacking my Mycelic Slipspawn. then both Magi of Chaos attacking and after that both Hunter Jarx attacking but opponent Hunter Jarx defeated my Mycelic Slipspawn. Then Opponent Djinn Biljka defeated my Mycelic Slipspawn for the second time and the last is my Goblin Tower defeated opponent Djinn Biljka but get resurrected again.
Round 3
In round 3 my Regal Peryton defeated opponent Djinn Biljka and then opponent Runemancer Florre attacking my Regal Peryton with magic damage and the range damage is missing, then opponent Venari Seedsmith hit my Regal Peryton, following by my Magi of Chaos attacking opponent Magi of Chaos then countered with Magi of Chaos attacking my Regal Peryton. Then opponent Hunter Jarx missing attacking My Regal Peryton. then my Hunter Jarx hit opponent Magi of Chaos and the last my Goblin Tower missing attacking opponent Magi of Chaos. If only my Goblin Tower can hit oponent Magi of Chaos maybe i can assure my win in this battle from this round.
Round 4
In round 4 my Regal Peryton still attacking first and hit opponent Magi of Chaos, then opponent Runemancer Florre attacking my Regal Peryton and hit all the attack and then opponent Venari Seedsmith defeated my Regal Peryton and got resurrected. And then opponent Magi of Chaos defeated my Regal Peryton for the second time and then countered with my Magi of Chaos attacking opponent Magi of Chaos. Then my Hunter Jarx defeated opponent Magi of Chaos and get ressurected. And countered with opponent Hunter Jarx gives damage to my Magi of Chaos. And the last is my Goblin Tower defeated opponent Magi of Chaos again. From this point i think i will lose the battle since my magic monster leaving with just Magi of Chaos. Dealing with opponent Runemancer Florre is pretty hard right now.
Round 5
After my Regal Peryton defeated of course the fastest monster in this battlefield will be opponent Runemancer Florre and attacking my Magi of Chaos then my Hunter Jarx hit opponent Venari Seedsmith. After that opponent Hunter Jarx defeated my Magi of Chaos. And the last is my Goblin Tower defeated opponent Venari Seedsmith and got resurrected again.
Round 6-7
Early round 6 opponent Runemancer Florre defeated my Magi of Chaos then opponent Hunter Jarx hit my Hunter Jarx and my Goblin Tower missing the attack this time. In round 7 opponent Runemancer Florre and Hunter Jarx defeated my Hunter Jarx. and my Hunter Jarx resurrected. and this time my Goblin Tower defeated opponent Venari Seedsmith. I think from the next round i will lose anyway with opponent Runemancer Florre hitting and defeating my Hunter Jarx will make my Goblin Tower cannot doing anything from Frontline.
Round 8-End
Yeah from round 8 opponent just attacking my Golin Tower with opponent Runemancer Florre until my Goblin Tower trully defeated after got resurrected.
Eventually if RNG God with my at least got 1 round opponent missing all range attack to my Regal Peryton, it will be my victory in this battle. But, yeah since RNG is really2 bad for me, that make i am losing the battle. But, not only the RNG that the factor. The main Factor is yeah Runemancer Florre is very overpowered in this ruleset.

Dual Attack type in Back to Basic Ruleset
Conclution
So, in Back to Basic ruleset using Immortalis as a summoner is pretty cool and awesome nowdays. because with Void ability that given by this summoner will reduce the magic damage to our team. And you just need to think if the opponent using Range attack. But, back again it is like playing Rock,Scissor,and Paper. If using Quix as summoner opponent that using range monster will be got useless and burden. also the magic damage will be directly hit the health and make broke the line up. But, if using Immortalis as defend and using range monster to defeat the opponent, i think it will be the ideal idea. But, when opponent using Battle script or helper it will be useless too, they will know it and countered your strategy. Yeah it will be better if people having self-awareness to stopping using helper and bot or script it will make the community better. But, not all people having big heart like that. Many people just very selfish that dont care about the game and community. So yeah cannot doing anything with script, helper, or bot at this time.
