😊Hey Battle Mages!
Here's a warm welcome back to the untold secrets of a battle mage. It just so happened that I was preparing this amazing battle for my social-media post and then Battle mages secret placed a demand on same ruleset, sweet!😆
I have so far shared my approach to six (6) Rulesets, here's the last one on BRIAR PATCH & HOW TO WIN AN IMPAIR ABILITY-BASED RULESET and I have come to introduce you to another. But, before I tell you all about it, there's plenty days left, so if you want to know other battle mages secrets and take part by sharing with us yours, simply visit 👉BATTLE MAGE SECRETS Weekly Challenge!.

Splinterlands seeks to sharpen skills by allowing players explore various strategies via rulesets. I have tried to study a few cards especially with the newly introduced rulesets, giving one more reasons to know what cards strongly suits them.

Before the start of any battle, each player is shown what ruleset is allowed in battle and it is extremely beneficial to read and strategize accordingly. The ruleset secret I will be sharing you to in this post is the BROKEN ARROWS

BROKEN ARROWS RULESET implies that Ranged attack Monsters may not be used in battles.

With this in mind players must consider the following;

 A front line monster with a high Health Point and the Void ability can deal with both melee and magic.^(a)

 Tank healing support will help your tank. In this rule set, using thorns or magic reflect is also very useful.^(b)

 Use the appropriate summoner to defend against either magic or melee attacks.^(c)

 Use monster abilities to deal with the other attack type.^(d)

This is a very interesting ruleset because way before the introduction of these rulesets, and if you followed my battles, MYLOR CROWLING is my go to weapon of destruction.

I especially enjoy either the ruleset or the ability and have a perfect battle to demonstrate it's use and a possible lineup that works for low-high mana battle.

A 100% win as analyzed by the new tool i found to be very helpful in teaching you about strategizing, the SPLINTERTOOLS.IO, I immediately subscribed. Before we charge into the battlefield, I'll introduce you to the monsters and why I picked them.

⚔️ TEAM LINE-UP ⚔️

MYLOR CROWLING - SUMMONER

The great MYLOR CROWLING, a summoner with the supernatural ability to grant the Thorns ability. This ability is so deadly that when monsters with it are attacked by melee attackers, it does damage back to the attacker. The awesome fact about this summoner is that, he gives the thorns ability to all monsters on his team, making them even more fierce.

👉`WHY I PICKED MYLOR CROWLING`

Summoner Mylor Crowling is Anti-Melee, hence, he is particularly effective when you envisage your enemy to come at you with Melee Attack. All teams having an extra Thorn will greatly be of help, should any step in first position and come face to face with a Melee attacker.

FLESH GOLEM - FIRST POSITION

This formidable golem battles with the strength of 100 men. The forest is home to Anumün's FLESH GOLEM. He is the guardian of the river of power from which he drinks. He can Heal himself and regenerate his powers. Magical attackers have no chance against him because of his Void ability.

This cards attack type is Melee, and it is part of the Earth unit. It costs 6-mana to use in battle , as a result, it will be an excellent card for both mid & high mana ruleset battles.

👉`WHY I PICKED FLESH GOLEM`

 A front line monster with a high Health Point and the Void ability can deal with both melee and magic.^(a)

 Tank healing support will help your tank. In this rule set, using thorns or magic reflect is also very useful.^(b)

I picked FLESH GOLEM because he in particular answers the ^a and ^b of the conditions to win a Broken Arrows ruleset. He is an anit-melee, has the void ability and a high Health point.

FUNGUS FIEND - SECOND POSITION

The FUNGUS FIEND is a legendary warrior card and master of the underworlds that thrives within caverns, deep inside swamps, or even within the hollowed-out trunks of great trees. It is able to burrow underground and bursts forth to attack it's unsuspecting enemy.

This cards attack type is Melee, a Rare card and it is part of the Earth unit. It also cost absolutely 0-mana to use in battle , as a result, it will be an excellent card for all, especially low mana battles.

👉`WHY I PICKED FUNGUS FIEND`

I picked FUNGUS FIEND because of it's zero mana, and as a Melee attack card, it pairs well with Mylor Crowling, making it an Anti-melee. It would also serve as a distraction.

REGAL PERYTON - THIRD POSITION

In Third position comes the formidable theme spellcaster card 6-star⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ REGAL PERYTON who can deal considerable magic damage to the enemy. It mainly serves as a magic attacker that can attack from any position. It's Flying ability will destroy non-flying melee and ranged attack enemies. It might look cute, but very dangerous.

This cards attack type is Magic, a Rare card and it is part of the Earth unit.

👉`WHY I PICKED REGAL PERYTON`

I picked REGAL PERYTON because I want the advantage of attacking from high grounds and rain destruction on my enemies. It will do well to serve this purpose.

⚔️ FURIOUS CHICKEN - FOURTH POSITION

The 4-star FURIOUS CHICKEN is not afraid to fight for their rights in the Splinterlands. This Chicken has the Enraged ability at this level 6. FURIOUS CHICKEN might look little, but it's attack is lethal and can serve well as a distraction by taking the front line or backline enemy hit for it's team members, giving room for the next monster to gain some attack advantage.

This cards attack type is Melee, a Rare card and it is part of the Neutral unit. It costs absolutely 0-mana to use in battle , as a result, it will be an excellent card for all, especially low mana battles.

👉`WHY I PICKED FURIOUS CHICKEN`

I picked FURIOUS CHICKEN because being a Melee attacker, it can cause great damage even at a lower levels, not to mention a zero mana card. Best when paired with Mylor Crowling to make it an Anti-Melee. This card can also be placed in the back position.

Without further ado, let us now enter the battleground.

Enemy-BATTLE ORCA in first position, Enemy-FURIOUS CHICKEN in second position, Enemy-HARDY STONEFISH in third position, Enemy-RULER OF THE SEAS in fourth position and finally Enemy-ICE PIXIE.

A RECAP OF THE BROKEN ARROWS RULESET

In battles that use the BROKEN ARROWS ruleset, ranged attack monsters may not be used in battles. This can make battles more challenging, as players must rely on other types of monsters [Melee and Magic] to deal damage and control the battlefield.

To succeed in Broken Arrows, players should consider using a high-HP first monster with the Void ability, which can deal with both melee and magic attacks. Additionally, players should give their tank a boost with tank healing support, to help them stay alive and continue to absorb damage [👉For Earth Splinter : FLESH GOLEM].

Using abilities such as Thorns or Magic Reflect can also be very useful in this ruleset, as they can help to deal damage to opponents while also protecting your own monsters. Players should also be aware of which types of attacks their opponents are using, and choose the right summoner to defend against either magic or melee attacks.

Overall, Broken Arrows can be a challenging and engaging ruleset, but it requires careful planning and execution to succeed. By using the right monsters, abilities, and summoner strategies, players can gain an advantage and emerge victorious in even the toughest battles.

✅From this battle and my observation. These abilities played a KEY role, especially for a low-mid manna cap like this which I enjoy.

👉 The HEAL ABILITY Restores a portion of the Monster's health each round. 💡At lower levels, the Healing ability in the front position can go a long way.

👉 The THORN ABILITY When hit with a Melee attack, does damage back to the attacker"> Reduced damage from Magic attacks. 💡Summoner Mylor Crowling as seen in this battle gives this ability to every friendly monster at the start of a battle.

👉 The VOID ABILITY Reduced damage from Magic attacks. 💡Attack damage gets halved (rounded up), except attack 1 which deals 0 damage. A Summoner Mimosa Nightshade gives this ability to every friendly monster at the start of a battle.
