Hello Splinterlands players and potential newcomers!
This weeks battle challenge is using Hill Giant.
I'm doing this post at the last minute just so I don't miss the challenge this week. So I'll have a lot less illustration than usual. But my strategy with "Hill Giant" does win quite often so be sure to check out my battle link.

So straight to the strategy
I use Hill Giant with the same lineup every time the mana Cap is 20. I get a lot of wins with this lineup. Check out the link to see how impressive it is. I start with Hill Giant as a tank. Second I put Spirit Hoarder to heal the backfield. Then Wood Nymph to use tank heal. To provide armor for the whole team and hold down the back end, I use Queen Mycelia. Then with the last couple of points I throw in Khmer Princess for extra attack damage. Hill Giant is a common and cheap card to upgrade, so mine is at level 3 in this battle. This means he'll have 7 HP plus the extra armor given. If the enemy attacks the back they will have to deal with Spirit Hoarder healing the back end. In most situations the enemy will not have enough damage to take out Hill Giant and he will get healed by the Wood Nymph. It's pretty simple really but the best part is every support unit used is also attacking from the backfield with magic. This means every character will be guaranteed to do some damage as well as ignore armor. Unless the enemy had some "void" for a tank they are rather helpless. Check out my link and you'll see, I didn't lose any allies whatsoever in this battle. Thanks for reading my post, sorry for the lack of illustration this week. Hope you like and find use with my tactic using Hill Giant. Check me out next week.
