Good evening, today I wanna talk about a Combination of Monsters I make when I got to take Battles with low Mana Cap: Mycelic Infantry and Scavo Hireling.

Before the change of cards that happened almost a month ago, when I had to battle with 16 or a minor mana cap, I mainly used the Fire element (Malric Inferno as summoner and Monsters like Cerberus, Kobold Miner or Serpentine Spy).
But now, because I am not a man of renting, I prefered to rethink new strategies with this Chaos Legion Edition cards, and the combination I most commonly use now Is with those Earth and Neutral monsters.

MYCELIC INFANTRY: I will start talking about the behemoth fungus that will do most of the dirty work in the battles.

It has a good amount of attack, armor and health. In addition to that, the Shield ability (reduce damage from Melee and Ranged attacks) make it the double of hard to beat if (if you are not a Magic Attack monster).

The only weakness It has is the speed, making it propense to attack last and to fail attacks to faster Monsters. It cost 7 of Mana, and despite what I said before about the slowness, for me it worth it.

Looking the next image, we will see that if we combine cards to make it level up, at Level 5 it will adquire the Giant Killer ability (Does double damage against targets that cost 10 or more mana) and the Enrage ability (has increased Melee attack and Speed when damaged) at Level 8.

Other interesting aspect is that the only stats that won´t increase despite leveling up are Speed and Armor, but it will increase the Attack and Health.

On the other hand, SCAVO HIRELING has no attack, low Health and Speed; but with the Repair ability (restores some armor to the friendly Monster whose armor has taken the most damage) it compliments perfectly with Monsters that got Armor.

In level 6 adquires Camouflage ability (this Monster cannot be targeted for attacks unless it's in the first position), so until that situation it will be an easy target to Monsters with Sneak, Opportunity, Blast, etc.

Also, at level 10 it will have also the Slow ability (reduces the Speed of all enemy Monsters by 1) and the Stats that will grow by leveling up are Speed and Health.

It cost 3 of Mana, but if in the Opposite team there is not Monsters with any of the Abilities I said before and just focus in the tank, it would be really helpful for the Victory.

I know this Combo is not a 100% assured victory but it works really well specially with a particular Monster: CURSED WINDEKU.

The other Monster I commonly use that can beat Windeku not having too much damage to keep fighting is Djinn Chwala because it has Thorns too and +5 of Armor, but I can not use it everytime so when I can´t use Dragon I use Mycelic Infantry and Scavo Hireling.

I got here to show five battles I won, in all of them I used as Summoner the Wizard of Eastwood because It effect of taking out two of Armor from my Rival´s Monsters are really useful.
