Hello again, my coffee loving friends. This game is one I played at earlier weeks of Rebellion. You can see it clearly since I even missed applying Prophet Rosa's Summoner Tactics. During the first month, I think, the counter for both the picks and the Summoner Tactics is too short which made me had a few mistakes here and there. Now, it's either longer or I got used to it so there's very few to no mistakes like this.

What I was originally planning here is to add the Shield ability of Prophet Rosa to The Kraken. A unit with Taunt and Shield is really strong, especially in Briar Patch, since Shield halves the damage from melee and range, including Thorns damage.

This would also make the lives of my other units easier since they need to heal and repair less.

STRATEGY


I already shared my strategy at the very start. Adding Prophet Rosa's Shield to The Kraken. Since The Kraken has Taunt, he would take all the Sneak, Snipe and Opportunity attacks and if these attacks happen to be melee and range attacks, then the damage will be halved. In Briar Patch, everyone gains Thorns which Shield also halves.

Even though Shield wasn't applied to this match, the Heal and Repair are enough to heal out the damage from my enemies including the Thorns damage The Kraken gets.

Alternative Strategy: With this build, you can also use Prophet Rosa's second ability and add range damage to Swamp Spitter and Crustacean King to up the damage.
