BATTLE MAGE SECRETS ✶ ODD ONES OUT

Odd Ones Out.png

Odd Ones Out - Only units with odd mana costs may be used (Summoners are not affected by this rule)

In the elements that were active fire was the one where I felt like I had the best cards for Odd Ones Out ruleset
Using Tarsa as my summoner I had a vision of going heavy melee damage team as Tarsa gives +1 melee attack
Even tho Odd Ones Out ruleset was active it dosen't affect summoners so I was able to play 4 mana Tarsa as my summoner

He was the last monster that I picked for this team and as I had 3 mana left and not a good monster to play I decided to play Venari Marksrat for his Martyr ability to buff my Grum Flameblade who was in the 1st position
Martyr - When a unit with the martyr ability dies in a battle, it gives adjacent characters +1 to all stats
Also my Grum Flameblade had one speed so my idea was that Venari Marksrat would die before it was Grum Flameblade turn to attack so he wouldn't tank and hits and also get a hit off himself in the 1st round

He was my main tank and damage dealer as he had Bloodlust and I was hoping he would get some kills
Bloodlust - This monster revels in the glory of combat and becomes more dangerous as the battle goes on. Every time it defeats an opponent, it gets +1 to all stats

Main reason to play Radiated Brute here was his Reach abilty coupled with his 2 melee damage
Reach - Melee attack units with the Reach ability may attack from the second position on the team
As Venari Marksrat died in the 1st position Grum Flameblade took his place and Radiated Brute fell into 2nd position just in time for him to use his Reach abilty and also attack in the 1st round

One of my favorite cards in game as of date
Just a simple level 2 reward epic gives you 2 melee, 2 speed, 1 armor and 2 hp with Sneak for only 3 mana
Sneak - Targets the last unit on the enemy Team instead of the first unit

Again another 3 cost 2 melee damage card with Opportunity
Opportunity - Units with the opportunity ability may attack from any position and will target the enemy unit with the lowest health
Saddly I only have a level 1 card of him but he still does the job

And for the last one in the lineup is Tenyii Striker
Also a great card with Sneak and 2 melee but he also has 6 hp so he was perfect for my team to sit in the back and tank if my enemy decided to play and Sneak cards himself

After 1st Round my plan had worked, my Venari Marksrat died in first two hits buffing my Grum Flameblade who also got 1 kill in the first round stacking his Bloodlust buffing him even more

After 2nd and 3rd Round nothing big had happened just regular blow by blow chipping each other's hit points away
For a bit I was concerned cause my Grum Flameblade was beginning to get quite low and he still had his full support line alive but in the end it all worked out

4th round was pretty big for both of us
I lost my Grum Flameblade and he lost both of hes supports so the battle was still quite close

At this point I still had no idea if I was going to win or lose but my Tenyii Striker gave me a big boost in confidence as he still had all his hp

I felt really good about this battle in the team builder but my confidence slowly decreased as rounds were played out and I wasn't winning as easily as I would've liked

As shown in Splintertools this was a quite close battle with winning chance of 57%
But in the end all worked out and I managed to bring home the victory
