My strategy using "Venari Knifer" is to provide armor using "Queen Mycelia" and repair the armor using "Scavo Hireling" This will force any melee attacking opponents to hit the thorns ability of "Venari Knifer"causing damage to them on their attack.
The armor is then replenished by "Scavo Hireling". This tactic will eventually destroy all melee attacking enemies. If the enemy destroys all available armor any damage given to "Venari Knifer" would be healed by the "Wood Nymph". This strategy will make it near impossible for melee attacking enemies to survive.
To cover the back side of the lineup I use "Hunter Jarx" who has a high HP plus the armor provided by "Queen Mycelia". If the enemy destroys all available armor any damage given to "Hunter Jarx" would be healed by the "Spirit Hoarder" and the triage ability. This strategy will make it very difficult for any tail attacking enemies to break through. All the while, "Hunter Jarx" using the snipe ability will provide damage to the enemy backfield. With both the front and back side of the lineup protected, this will prove difficult for any opposing force to win. Thanks for reading check me out next week.
