This battle is using a "Little League" ruleset, which means only low Mana characters are available. This means the enemies melee attack power will be low. For this reason, I put "Antoid Platoon" as a tank. This card has the "shield" ability, so any melee or ranged attack of 1 will do no damage. Of course, this entire strategy would have failed if the enemy was using magic. With a tank selected I then use "Spirit Hoarder" followed by some ranged attackers. If the enemy attacks the backfield my ranged allies would be healed by the "Triage" ability of "Spirit Hoarder". Check out my battle link to see this strategy in action. In the end of this battle my teams wins while outnumbered 4 to 6. Plus the entire enemy team only had 1 card capable of dealing any damage to my "Antoid Platoon". This strategy is specific to the "Little League" ruleset, but hopefully gives some ideas on how to use both mana caps and rulesets when strategizing your next battle. Thanks for reading, any further ideas or feedback is encouraged in the comments section.
Special thanks to
