The ruleset for this week's challenge
- Melee Mayhem - Melee attack Monsters can attack from any position
The ruleset that I managed to get
- Rulesets - Melee Mayhem & Fog of War
- Mana Cap - 42
- Active Elements - Fire, Life, Death, Dragon
Here's my starting lineup
Summoner: Contessa L'ament
- For the active Elements I got on my ruleset I didn't have a Summoner with a great impact on hand so I just settled for high level one in Death Element cause I knew I had some great cards I can play in there
- As I speculated using Contessa L'ament as my summoner turned out to be fully useless as my enemy didn't play any ranged monsters
Tank: Harklaw
- In my opinion Harklaw is a great card and especially a great tank in this battle
- Shield - Reduces damage from Melee and Ranged attacks by 50%
1st Position: Cursed Windeku
- Serves as secondary tank in this battle
- I used Cursed Windeku mainly cause he/she had Thorns
- Thorns - When hit with a Melee attack, does 2 Melee damage back to the Attacker
2nd Position: Pelacor Deceiver
- This pick was just best card from the excess 5 mana
- For 5 mana I got a lot of stats
3rd Position: Octopider
- Main reason I played him/her in this battle was the Demoralize ability as the Melee Mayhem ruleset was active I had a strong belief my enemy would play Melee cards
- Demoralize - Reduces the Melee attack of all enemy Units by 1
- Also if it would had came down to 3nd Position tanking at some point, he/she has enough hp to tank some hits
4th Position: Disintegrator
- Just a 2 attack great hp card with Demoralize again
- Main goal for him/her and Octopider was just to reduce enemy Melee damage to 1 so they would deal 0 damage to Tank: Harklaw in the front
5th Position: Silent Sha-vi
- Love this card so much for 5 mana you get 3 damage and he/she is quite fast as well
- Sneak doesn't help in this battle as Melee Mayhem is active anyway
Here's how the battle went
1st Round
- After 1st Round my plan had worked, my enemy had only one Monster with 2 magic attack who could hurt my Harklaw in the tank position
2nd & 3rd Round
- After 2nd and 3rd Round I still had all my monsters alive and quite well
- At this point I saw that my Harklaw will die in the 4th round but I was up so much and my Cursed Windeku was still coming up
4th & 5th Round
- Last 2 rounds were simple cleanup
- As my Harklaw died and enemies started hitting my Cursed Windeku with Thorns the battle was quickly over
- After thous rounds I had won the battle
- Battle Replay Link
Summary
- I felt really good about this battle, everything just fell into place and I only lost 1 monster
- Also wanted to point out the strategy of lowering all enemy attacks to 1 and playing Monster with Shield and/or Void ability is so strong
