In this battle the main condition is Unprotected, this causes the monsters to lose the shield that protects them, on the other hand, the maximum mana was 21 and the battle took place in the silver league in wild mode; there was also a second condition, and it was Holy protection, this condition generates that the cards have an invisible protection, this allows them to evade the first attack, be it magic, melee or ranged.
The strategy of the battle was to use a water element team and magic, so I used Alric Stormbringer, then I placed Furious Chicken, this card would be a decoy to avoid attacks to my main cards, in the second position I placed Torrent Fiend, this card would fulfill a similar mission to the Furious Chicken.
In the third position, I placed Djjin Oshannus, this would be my main attack card, in the fourth position I placed Phantom of The abyss. These last two cards will be vital in my strategy, as they are resilient and have attack power.
Meanwhile, my opponent uses: Kelya Frendul, Djjin Oshannus, Venari Marksrat, Pelador Bandit and Merdaali Guardian.

This time I didn't use healing cards in my team, and my opponent had a team with a healing card, so I thought my opponent had the advantage, no doubt, my opponent's team was very strong, but my team was also very strong.
During the first round, everything went as planned, i.e. Furious Chicken was destroyed and in the third round, Torrent Fiend was eliminated. Up to this stage the decoy cards were doing the job and my other cards were attacking the opponent.
From the fourth round to the fifth, no card was removed, but in the sixth round I managed to destroy his top card, Djjin Oshannus. From that point on, I managed to open the way to finish off the other remaining cards.
In the seventh round, I was able to destroy Venari Marksrat, then in the ninth round, the victim was Pelacor Bandit and in the tenth round Merdaali Guardian was destroyed. This last part of the battle was easy, because of the versatility and magic attack of my cards.
Conclusion.
The strategy of this battle was based on my magic attacks and the resistance of my cards, as Djjin Oshannus could decrease the magic damage and The Phantom of The abyss, worked as an attack card, but can also dodge direct or ranged attacks. By using this type of cards with resistance, there would be no need to use shields, as they perform very well, plus the zero mana decoy cards allowed Djjin Oshannus and Phantom of The abyss to miss the first few attacks.
