Battle Ruleset:

There were three rulesets in this battle: Even Stevens, Tis but Scratches, and FiveAlive. The allowed mana cap was 40 and Fire, Water, and Death Splinter summoners were active to play.

Battle Summoner:

For this battle, I chose the Death Splinter summoner Zintar Mortalis as it's the only one I have upgraded in the Death Splinter. This summoner is a Rare Death Splinter Summoner that costs 3 mana and has one debuff that reduces the melee attack of all enemy melee attack monsters by -1. I have upgraded it to level 4 and I prefer to use it most of the time because I find it easy to win battles with it. This summoner has been working well for me at level 4.

1. DARK HA'ON:

In the first position of my battle lineup, I utilized a legendary monster from the Death Splinter known as "DARK HA'ON". This melee attacker is part of the Untamed edition and has a mana cost of 10. At level 1, it possesses the "Flying" and "Taunt" abilities, which makes it an excellent choice for this battle. Its high health of 13 and -2 melee damage debuff also made it a suitable monster for the first position. Moreover, the Taunt ability forces all enemy monsters to target it, keeping my other monsters safe until it dies. I obtained this monster at level 1 from an untamed pack opening, and it has proven to be a valuable asset in my battles.

2. PHANTOM SOLDIER:

In my second position, I utilized a reward edition Epic magic attack monster called Phantom Soldierfrom the Death Splinter. This monster costs 8 mana, does -2 magic damage, and has the Flying ability at level 1 which increases its chance of evading Melee or Ranged attacks from Monsters who do not have the Flying ability. I have upgraded it to level 3 which increased its magic attack from -2 to -3 and also gains the Silence ability that reduces the Magic Attack of all enemy Monsters. I chose to use this monster because of its high magic damage and the Silence ability that can reduce the magic attack of the enemy team monsters by -1.

3. USUT:

In the third position, I have placed a legendary magic attack monster named USUT. It is a reward edition monster from the Death Splinter that costs 10 mana to use. At level 1, it provides a -2 magic damage, along with the Flying and BloodLust abilities. I chose to use it in this battle because of its powerful Bloodlust ability. Currently, I have this monster at level 1, and it has proven to be a very effective addition to my team.

4. VENARI BONESMITH:

In the fourth position, I placed a rare magic attack monster called VENARI BONESMITH, which I received as a reward edition from the Death Splinter. This monster costs 4 mana at level 1 and can reduce magic damage by 1 while also possessing the Life Leach ability. I have upgraded it to level 4, and it now has an additional ability, Poison. I chose to use this monster in a battle due to its Life Leach and Poison abilities, and I am currently very pleased with its performance at level 4.

5. RAVENHOOD WARDEN:

In the fifth position, I used "RAVENHOOD WARDEN", a rare range attack monster from the Death Splinter that comes as a reward edition. It costs 4 mana to use, does a -2 range attack, and has a Protect ability at level 1. I have upgraded it to level 3 in which its range attack increased to -2 from -1. I decided to use it in the fifth position in this battle because of its Protect ability which gives all friendly monsters a boost of +2 armor.
