Most of the summoners that we play with are rare. When we get them up to level 3 we can pair them with level 4 commons, level 3 rares, level 2 epics and level 2 legendary monsters. It's interesting that you can't go any higher with epic monsters than you did with level 2 rare summoners, so you won't see any epic monsters on this list, but at level 3 you can start playing level 2 legendary monsters and some of those are incredible.
I think these are some of the most impactful earth monsters to start leveling up from Rebellion if you happen to have some level 3 rare summoners to pair them with. These upgrades will also work if you have level 2 legendary summoners or level 4 common summoners.
At level 3 Gobson Sniper picks up Camouflage.
At level 3 Swell Spore Beast picks up a 4th ranged attack damage. With just 1 speed this monster is better in the reverse speed ruleset, but even outside of that ruleset it won't miss.
At level 3 Blackmoor Nymph picks up the snare ability. This is great in the earthquake ruleset and will make your opponent's fliers easier to hit for any of your other monsters that don't fly.
At level 2 Thanalor picks up the scavenge ability. The scavenge ability is excellent, but at 12 mana the use cases for Thanlor are still a little narrow.
Most legendary monsters pick up another ability at level 2, some of those abilities are more impactful than others.
When picking out new cards to level up, it's important to consider whether you'll be playing in modern or wild format. All of the cards that I discussed in today's post are legal in modern. If you start to level these cards up remember that they will revert to a lower level if you play them with a rare summoner at level 1 or 2, or even a level 1 legendary summoner.
I would love to hear what some of your favorite cards are to level up. I'll keep pointing out the ones I can. Another great place to find them is the cards that you get beat by on the battlefield.
