I've been trying a bunch of combos but I still come back again and again to Weapons Training. This combo is just too much to pass.

It is very hard to counter due to the range and magic damage combo. Your opponent must use both Void and Shield in order to protect themselves o else they would be run over by the sheer fire power of this build.

Not oly that, the build is very flexible as well since you can technically change all of the passive monsters depening on what mana cap you are playing at. This is definitely one of he best discoveries I had so far in Rebellion.

Stats | Zeddica

^{𝔓𝔥𝔬𝔱𝔬 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔪𝔶 𝔖𝔭𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔩𝔞𝔫𝔡𝔰 𝔞𝔠𝔠𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔱.}

Zeddica is a Common summoner . from the Rebellion Series.

Level 3 Common summoners allow the use of:
Level 1 Legendary monsters;
Level 2 Epic monsters;
Level 2 Rare monsters;
Level 3 Common monsters.

Zeddica's strength comes from his flexibility. Since he is a dual element, he can use both Water and Death monsters giving him more strategies than single element summoners

Stats | Will-O-Wisp

^{𝔓𝔥𝔬𝔱𝔬 𝔣𝔯𝔬𝔪 𝔪𝔶 𝔖𝔭𝔩𝔦𝔫𝔱𝔢𝔯𝔩𝔞𝔫𝔡𝔰 𝔞𝔠𝔠𝔬𝔲𝔫𝔱.}

For a 6 mana cost monster, Will-O-Wisp is actually strong. Since he can act as a tank in the front, he can also act as a tank in the back against Sneaks.

---

Abilities

---

At level 1, Flying is unlocked. Flying increases the chance that non-flying enemy will miss by 25%..

When combined with high speed, Flying is an effective anti-Sneak ability.

---

At level 1, Weaken is unlocked. Weaken reduces an opponent's max health by 1, with a minimum of 1..

Since a good chunk of my damage is magic, reducing max health is as good as inflicting 1 magic damage at the start of the game.

---

At level 4, Silence is unlocked. Silence reduces the opponent's magic damage by 1, with a minimum of 1..

This is a good combination with Baakjira's Void ability to further reduce any opponent's magic damage.

---

At level 6, Blind is unlocked. Blind reduces all opponent's max hit chance by 15%..

With high speed, Flying and Blind, your opponent's melee Sneak will have a hard time damaging this monster.

Zeddica: Despite having no abilities, Zeddica is important in order to use Zyriel and Will-o-Wisp in Water build.

1. Baakjira: Main Tank. Trained by Daarg Deadblast to gain 2 magic damage.
2. Daarg Deadblast: Has Weapons Training for Baakjira and Noa the Just. Armored up does not affect him and his trained units since all of them has magic damage.
3. Noa the Just: His Rust ability negates the Armored Up rule of combat allowing me to benefit on it alone. Has no attack so he can be a target for Zyriel and Daarg Deadblast's Weapons Training abilities.
4. Zyriel: Has Weapons Training to give 3 range damage toWill-o-Wisp and Noa the Just. Also has Life Leech to gain health whenever she strikes an opponent's health.
5. Will-O-Wisp: Decent mana cost monster with high health, speed, Flying ability and Weaken. He has no attack so he can be target for Weapons Training.
6. Venari Wavesmith: Has magic damage and Protect ability to further increase the armor by 2.

ᗪIᗪ YOᑌᖇ ᔕTᖇᗩTEGY ᗯOᖇKEᗪ?

Yes. This is a strong lineup prioritizing the Weapons Training abilities. The Rust worked great in order to remove the opponent's armor from Armored Up allowing my range damage to inflict damage to their health instead of the bonus armor.

---

---

ᗯᕼᗩT ᗯIᒪᒪ YOᑌ TᖇY ᗪIᖴᖴEᖇEᑎTᒪY ᑎE᙭T TIᗰE?

None. The only thing I can change is Venari Wavesmith but I cannot think of a better 5 mana cost for the current situation. I thnk the monsters are suited for their roles and played I perfectly.

Zeddica and Will-O-Wisp in Armored Up Rules of Combat

? 𝑾𝒉𝒚 𝒐𝒓 𝑾𝒉𝒚 𝒏𝒐𝒕?

Yes. Zeddica is important for me to use Death monsters with water build. Will-o-Wisp, on the other hand, helped reducin the opponent's max health reducing the opponent's Triage and Tank Heal effects. Since half of my damage directly damages he opponent's health, the Weaken acted as if the opponents were attacked with 1 magic damage at the start of the round. If my opponent did not use Immortalis as the summoner, this game would be far more easier than it currently is.
