This time I will show you a battle with the condition Rise of the commons, this battle took place in the silver league and the maximum mana was 29, but the Taking Sides condition was also activated. So it would be a complicated battle, and with a reduction of important cards.
The first condition: Rise of the commons, generates us that we can only use cards of a single element, specifically only common and rare cards can be used. While, Taking Sides, causes neutral cards to disappear.
For this battle I had to use a different team than usual, so I used Aquatus as a summoner, then Kelp Initiate, as it has a lot of speed and can activate the Back Fire. Normally it is ideal to place a card that can act as a tank, with high stats, but fast cards combined with Back Fire, also give good results; then use Pelacor Bandit, as it is also a card with the ability to evade attacks. In the third position, I placed Riverboat Captain, this magic card can generate good attacks and at the same time it causes damage to the opponent who is next to the target.
Then, I placed Venari Wavesmith, this card can use the magic attack and activate the protection shield on the other cards of the team, then I placed Merdaali Guardian, this card would be responsible for generating healing in the whole team, finally I used Deeplurker, as it can perform attacks from any position.
While my opponent used the following cards in his team: Kelya Frendul , Diemonshark , Merdaali Guardian , Kulu Swimhunter , Swamp Spitter , Angelic Mandarin.

At the beginning I thought that my strategy would be very good, since I had abilities and cards that are very important or useful, but the opposite happened, during the first round everything was very normal, and no card was destroyed, but in Round 2, Kelp Initiate and Pelacor Bandit were the first to be destroyed.
In Round 3, Riverboat Captain suffered the consequences, so my opponent had the advantage in this battle, in the next round, Venari Wavesmith was eliminated.
In the last two rounds, Merdaali Guardian and Deeplurker also suffered damage and were out of the battle. Because of that, my opponent got the victory, and I was crushed.
Honestly, I would have liked to have used another strategy or cards and show a better battle, but this is my most recent battle under the Rise of the commons condition, in other occasions the strategy I used has given me good results, but this time everything went wrong.
Conclusion.
The only advice I can give you is that you should always create alternative teams with common and rare cards, you should also have strategies with low mana cards, in addition to having cards that make the tank function, so we can last longer in the battle and make our strategy can be executed. From mistakes, we should always learn, although my strategy had logic, and sometimes it works, but this time my opponent has had better performance.
