Mycelic Heroes

I'm playing green, binhmay0007@binhmay0007 is playing white. You guys must know this by now, but white deals a ton of damage. It's so annoying how they'll pierce right through whatever you try to block them with as early as turn 1. They want to smash you into dust without ever giving you a chance to use your strategy. This is where my new combo comes in.

Were you fooled into thinking Flesh Golem was special? No, these are the 4 cards that matter: Mycelic Subspawn, Spirit Hoarder, Epona, Queen Mycelia, as seen on the image below. Since They're all magic damage, my tank must deal physical damage, in case the enemy is using something like Void. Now, I'm going to explain how this works.

Mycelic Subspawn is going to lure all the damage it can, and it's going to survive, because no opposing team can deal enough damage to kill her during the first turn. Your tank is going to survive no matter what happens, and so is she! Of course, she'll probably die in the middle of turn two, like it happens in this battle. But we've shrugged off their entire strategy by then.

Forcing my team into focusing their taunting tank makes me unable to kill their fragile backliners. This means it's a race. I must kill their tank before mine dies. Enemy damage drops really quickly once that happens, since we stomp each glass cannon into the ground before others behind them can do anything significant. Using Obsidian as my summoner lets me deal 7 magic damage in a single turn.

I've used Uraeus as my other monster, but I could have picked Dwarven Wizard. Armor for the backliners has been meta in bronze, so if the enemy tank didn't have the taunt ability, I'd strike straight at their hearts, while Uraeus would need additional turns trying to get rid of their armor first. I've also used Flesh Golem, but Grund would have been a great pick if I had enough mana.

This is a team for really high mana caps in bronze. It was 30 in this battle, which is what I would claim as the minimal amount you need to make it work. If you're going to try it, you're going to nail it, so good luck in your battles! We all know how tough it is breaking through those pesky bots and their perfect team selection.
