Splinterlands: How to win without attack!!
In this case it was a low mana game (12) with Poison and Keep your distance as rule set.
With low mana, one can expect reasonably low attack or low health monsters and with the healing capabilities of Gelatinous Cube at level 6 and the Cleanse ability of the Kelp Initiate one should be able to outlast the enemy when the poison takes its toll.
In this case it worked out well for me!!
Keep on Battling!!
