How is the season going for you? Yesterday I was really high with my rating but I didn't want to stop playing to not miss out on more Glint and SPS, I see many players are starting to burn SPS for extra Glint and this is a great feature to help the SPS token in the long run, I won't burn any of it though because I have not met my first goal of 250k but even then, I won't stop accumulating there. 😊 Before we go to today's main topic, I had a question, or rather a call for a skilled (or not) player that like to join our ranks. # Looking for a new Modern Bronze guild member. One of my Guild members told me he was thinking about quitting altogether with the game, but already stopped submitting 90% of their brawls so I am in need of a new player with a low level Modern deck, so do you know a new player who can use some guidance bring me in contact and I can be that person, I like to teach new players 🙂 also if you have an alt account with some modern cards that's without a guild, come and help us out! ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23u5ZPoTF4ZzVdTHNJENM4pDNhbRq2p2n25kkNp1JGB4xWaVMywgQk7j9vRmWCPW49MmC.png) We're a Tier 2 Guild with level 4 buildings, currently working on upgrading the Guild Hall with a weekly average donation of 100 dec/week. As you can see, most of the times we're in the top 3. ![teeth banner.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23w2kqTN8gBpWz7rz7ZmFQEDWAiPGQLJues1o7u42f9bzzU4qSUaFjgPSVQRN5NV5UDFV.png) # Ranged Only, one of my favorites! ![going the distance.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/AK58VN4HC9Z2JQBBgKLAgefSo7mvE3KuikKVQPnGVHuRyGqgNLGW7zdF7YU6c5E.png) This battle was fought a season or two ago probably, and I saved it to later make a post about and then life got busy and I didn't make one, so now is the time! 😃 One of my favorite strategies in 'Going the Distance', which is the official name but Ranged Only is easier to remember and understand, is stacking *Headwinds* to create a strong wind so the enemy damage is brought back to 1, or at least close to 1, so it won't do any damage on my really nice Gold Foil Legendary card Gallicus. ![Gallicus GF CARD.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/242rs1o1BRpxwGEp9pX6A7JhRYYQnBaU8gJJdUaM3gXJUHDJENifHaxirUur1TXPTCcpF.png) With only limited incoming damage, my Caravan Guard can heal the damage that does come through if there is any and although my own damage isn't very high my team can now slowly start to degrade the other team. Gallicus is a reward card from the previous set and not many players have this card higher than level 1, where it only has the *Taunt* ability but not the *Shield* ability, at level 1 this card is very useless, with only 5 Health Points combined with *Taunt* it gets killed FAST. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23tGvuCjv7AScS9txdpQqrJkGhuWV41vcURcP3RL3sBnE3ezgRn9ULc4J6wpQhSf4DEFe.png) Still, a maxed out Nidhogr is nothing to take lightly because it's a formidable Archon even at a low level and it has surprised me many times with battles in which I thought I would be victorious but I wasn't. The Tactics went to Sultry Barmaid and Razorhound and my opponent chose to go with the extra speed and *Execute*, To be fair, if the tactic was *Blast* there was still a good chance I would have lost the fight because the blast damage would have taken out my Anachron Bolter with enough damage so my Caravan Guard couldn't heal this. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23tGvuCjwYQ5gZHK36EE7NUfPniULUtjcgfHBibcPYRbKvZhhA9tYRorusdJ1sPZ4dBau.png) My team is very slow, with exception for my Fenmoor Wood Troll so there were a lot of misses, the enemy *Taunt* had the *Dodge* ability so that didn't help with accuracy and it wasn't until late in round 4 the first kill was finally made, with 0 damage to my own team they have time on their side. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23tS2jyB5ZUsZo3rVvgvQtzjeg2em5DFYe4k7uLkdVNhtyb53LoyQEnH1kZFUZgnBDWgT.png) Slowly but surely, more enemy monsters started to fall and it was only a matter of time before this battle would be victorious, even if it is this long - most battles I fight don't reach round 7. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23tGdwUZ8crYXxavbAKGKyj3GQtJCiuL2QsnKzx42dBDQWjuXiFT7hC4ZdB1JJau4ZUqR.png) With the enemy *Headwinds* gone, the pace got higher with more outgoing damage and soon, victory was mine - a common Archon with only one Legendary monster in my team, pretty cool! ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/nozem01/23w2DBw3vdf1ZyQ7Ue21GLVRJph5DpmhWXVuYsE6vQYyFeeevP4XvzajcaxjUFoNevkqN.png) Like I said it was an extra sweet victory against this player because I lose probably 8 out of 10 battles against one of his many accounts, the Glint and SPS rewards are really nice and adds up when you play every day.
