Heyyy yooooo
what's up Splinter Player around the world how are you doing? I want to share my battle using one of my own account that played in Gold League Format.And this time, i want to share that in Melee Mayheem ruleset battle we still need balancing our team and not focused all to melee monster only because that strategy might be easy to be detect and countered with only with just one monster with completed ability. In this battle i am using just 2 melee monster but having pretty good ability that can growing its status. Also bringing 2 kind of attack type might be good too in this ruleset.
Okay since you guys know that the ruleset is Lost Magic lets knowing this ruleset a little bit deeper.This ruleset description is
Melee units can attack from any position.
Prime use case for melee units with Bloodlust.
Abilities take precedence where targeting is concerned.
So, the best strategy with this ruleset is using all melee with many abilities that can growing it's status or using melee monster that having forcefield ability that can compress any monster with high amount of melee attack will be just 1 attack. But, remember this games is like chess game that we need to read and guessing opponent strategy and if we think that using all melee attack it will be really easy to guess right. Thats why sometimes we still need to arranging strategy with combination of all type attack.
Strategy Phase
In this battle i am using combination attack to make all balancing not depending on melee attack only, but i still need using magic attack type monster and range type attack monster to cover melee type attack if got counter.
I am using Jared Scar as my main attacker for melee type attack because this monster having True Strike ability that can make this monster will never missing attacking opponent even though the speed different is high. And also if the opponent having armor, this monster having piercing ability that can still piercing opponent armor if this monster attack exceed the opponent armor. And the insane ability that this monster have is Bloodlust ability that can make this monster get buff after killing opponent monster. This monster is really weak at the start of the battle with a little bit low status. But, when this monster can killing opponent line up once or twice, it will make this monster really unstopable. Thats why as i mentioned before bringing monster that having forcefield ability is really important
For tanker i believe that using Arkemis Bear is really great, this monste rhaving forcefield ability that can compress any attack that above 4 will be just 1 damage and that will make this monster can holding any brute attack from opponent line up. Alsi this monster having protect ability that can adding 2 additional armor while this monster alive. And also this monster having halving ability that can cut down opponent that get touch by this monster. And after this monster get hit the enrage ability will active and will buff this monster and it will be terrible to opponent frontline i guess
For the Support i am using Adelade Brightwing because this monster have pretty good abilities that can support all my team mates. This monster having basic ability that can protect itself using flying ability. Also this monster having repair ability that can protect my frontline tanker in this battle can help Arkemis Bear to get armor each turn. And if one of my monster die it will resurrect it by using Resurrect ability. And this monster also have immunity ability that immune to any debuff and status like poison or else. And the most helpfull ability is Swiftness that can gives my entire team mates 1 additional speed as long as this monster alive.
For the brokening opponent line up monster using any status, i will bring Doctor Blight that can make opponent team will be very hard to cover this monster debuff status like poison and affliction. This monster is really weak for early games, but after any monster died in the battle this monster will be growing stronger due the scavenger ability that can adding its max health each monster dies. Also this monster cannot be targeted except in frontline due the camouflage ability. And this monster will debuffing opponents health by 1 due the weakness ability. Hopefully with poison ability, this monster can make opponent frontline monster die faster than i imagine.
Battlephase
This time i am encountered with player that from Kortklubben guild that i am never encountered. Maybe this is the first time we got meet in the battle. And this time opponent using Kelya Frendull as summoner which is water element the strongest element in this entire spliterlandverse.
And in this battle as you can see the picture above, having 2 ruleset. The first ruleset is Melee Mayheem that means all melee monster can attack in wherever position. The second ruleset is Holy Protection that means all monster will having Divine Shield ability. The manacap in this battle is 43 which is pretty good to assembly a fine strategy. And the only element that cannot be used in this battle is Earth element. And this time i am choosing Dragon element combined with Life element.
My line Up
- Quix The Devious as Summoner
- Arkemis The bear as Frontline Summoner
- Jared Scar as Main Attacker
- Adelade brightwing as Support
- Venari Crystalsmith as Support Attacker
- Runeslinger as Attacker
- Doctor Blight as Main Carry
Opponent Line Up
- Kelya Frendul as Summoner
- Noa The Arc as Frontline Tanker
- Kulu The Mastermind as Attacker
- Coastal Sentry as Attacker
- Deeplurker as Attacker
- Pelacor Bandit as Backline Attacker
- Dumackle Orc as Backline Tanker and Attacker
In this battle opponent using all melee monster that really risky. Even though water element is the strongest element in this splinterlandverse. But, really this strategy too risky. Thats why i am bringing Arkemis Bear this time. See opponent Coastal Sentry will be just 2 damage each turn since the melee damage is 5 and Deeplurker too. That will losing 2 great monster attack to be just 1 attack due the forcefield ability. but, what makes hard is opponent Noa The Arc that having backfire ability and dodge ability. It will be very hard to hit this monster. Fortunately i am bringing Jared Scar that never miss.
Okay The summary of this battle is yeah of course my range monster never touch opponent Noa The Arc due the high speed and dodge ability. Especially in this game my RNG was very bad for the first time till now. And my Runeslinger easily defeated by opponent Kulu Mastermind and Deeplurker due the opportunity ability.But, opponent Noa The Arc easily defeated by my Jared Scar and activated the bloodlust ability. And my Arkemis Bear is hardly to beat. And in this battle i got help by my Adelade Brightwing and Doctor Blight that using magic type attack since opponent did not bring any monster that having defence against magic type attack. And when opponent Coastal Sentry Defeated. it will be very easy to defeat the rest of the opponent especially my Doctor Blight going stronger. And if all my monster defeated i think my team still can win this battle due my Doctor Blight Health will be much much higher than total attack from opponent. And absolutely with poison ability that can reduce 2 health every turn. But, yeah in this battle my Doctor Blight seems useless because my Arkemis bear can holding any opponent attack and still alive till almost the end of the battle. And my Jared Scar can gives high amount of damage to opponent monster. That really easy to defeat opponent this time.

Conclution
After seeing this abttle i can say that using All melee monster in Melee Mayheem ruleset battle is not a wise decision. Even though melee got advantage in this ruleset battle but somehow it is not really working and can easily defeted. Some combination for strategy in this ruleset is still needed i think. Afterall, using ability that have good for attacking and defence against melee is very needed in this battle.
