Why should you consider using "DARK HA'ON"?

Simple Reason = Come on, why not use this card since it got 5 skills

Strategic Reason In the battle I am about to show you, I use DARK HA'ON because of 1 of the ruleset. DARK HA'ON is a particularly hard to put in your lineup card since of the mana cost and because of 1 of its skill, "Taunt". Although that is one of the beauty of this card, there are battles where I've put it and just melted away because of the bombardment of damage. But in this battle, it is just plain perfect.

ENTER BATTLE :

Also a glimpse of what I am thinking and not thinking when picking my lineup

Here are the Rules for the Battle

Mana : 40
Explosive Weaponry : All monsters have the blast ability
Broken Arrows* : Range attack monsters may not be use in this battle

*This is the reason why I've used DARK HA'ON in this battle because of 3 of its skills which became the "Bread, Butter & Bacon" of the battle:

~This is to make the enemy target this monster (Bread)

~Since there are no Range monsters, there is a high possibility of magic attack monsters, better to lessen their damage (Smothered Butter)

~This makes DARK HA'ON just a pain in the @$$ of the enemy team (This is the added Bacon on top)

Lineup Positions :

Summoner : CAMILA SUNGAZER

• Choosing a Melee counter to lessen the burden to DARK HA'ON of the possibilities the enemy have melee attackers with opportunity and sneak skills.

1 = DARK HA'ON

• MVP of this battle. 5 skills of mayhem.

2 = GOLD DRAGON

• Damage dealer and also another layer of defense with heal and Magic reflect on the off chance DARK HA'ON gives up.

3 = THEOROSA NIGHTSHADE

• Backline healer and with void ability, might need Triage if DARK HA'ON gives up.

4 = DRAGON JUMPER

• Great damage dealer with opportunity, destroying those low hp damage dealers and to take advantage of the blast ability.

5 = PARASITIC GROWTH

• Another card with opportunity to follow up on the damage dealt by Dragon Jumper.

6 = PHANTOM SOLDIER

• Damage dealer and support monster. Used to further lessen the magic damage of the enemy team.

COMMENCE BATTLE
ROUND 1

Click image above to watch Replay

The enemy team got 3 magic damage dealers and two of them will probably die right from the start since their speed is so low.

ROUND 2

The enemy team only got 2 damage dealers left with DARK HA'ON having 12 hp, this battle is surely mine.

ROUND 3

Last bit of struggle but it is of no use.

RESULT

Finally ended my lose streak here.

DARK HA'ON is a bit tricky to use but if used well, he is one of the best monsters in high mana battles. You just got to take advantage of its 5 skills and you can dominate enemy team.
