League | Max Level - Copies needed | Cost |
---|---|---|
Bronze max | LV2 - 5 copies | 0.95 usd. |
Sliver max | LV4 - 25 copies | 4.75 usd. |
Gold max | LV6 - 60 copies | 11.4 usd. |
Diamond and above | LV MAX - 115 copies | 21.85 usd. |
Level 4 is required to gain Triage which is definitely quite a key ability for this card as it turns it from being a plain vanilla attacker to a healer as well which greatly improves its value, getting it to level 5 is also quite good as there where it gets that extra point of damage.
the gold foil starts at level 2 but cost about 4 x the amount of a regular level 2 and would require 4 copies just to get the triage ability with the same amount of money you could get a level 6 regular version and some other cards.
Battle rules
Symbol | Rule Effect |
---|---|
Neutral Monsters may not be used in battles. |
Total Mana : 38
Usable elements : Fire, Water, Earth, Death and Dragon
Another kinda low mana battle plus this battle does not allow for neutral cards to be used which does reduce the choices available unless you use the dragon element to buff the amount of playable units .
Team Composition
Card | Role | Reason |
---|---|---|
Summoner | Kelya%20Frendul with its increase in speed and giving a single point of armor to all units its one of the better summoners to use | |
Main tank, Trample, Enrage | Diemonshark as the main tank with its high hp and armor values plus it has enrage which pairs well with its trample and with the ruleset trample is much stronger | |
Healer, Repair | Merdaali Guardian having a healer on the team is always great since it can keep the main tank healthy to take more damage plus at gold level it has repair which can increase the effectiveness of units with armor | |
Opportunist , Poison | Deeplurker with its opportunist ability paired with the poison ability gained at the gold level it becomes quite a powerful unit since there is a chance to poison the target that it hits which can speed up in killing them since they should have lowish health to begin with | |
Range Damage, Snare | Azmare Harpoonist just in case they have flying units this unit can bring them down to earth allowing for an easier kill | |
Star of the Challenge, Triage | Angelic Mandarin with Triage it can heal the units in the backline plus with its ranged attacks it can still attack at this position | |
Taunt, Close combat, Void | Wave Brood with its high hp pool combined with the Angelic Mandarin triage its quite a strong tank since its pulling all the damage from the enemy's team and is getting healed each turn plus at the gold level it has the void ability increasing its effectiveness against magic units |
Now on to the Battle
Round 1
The Angelic Mandarin did managed to heal the wave brood back to full since the magic damage bypasses the armor value.
This round ended with the opponent losing 1 units due to the deeplurker's attack.
Round 2 & 3
The rounds ended with almost 2/3 of the opponent's team being taken out while only bringing the wave brood hp down to its last bit.
Round 4 to The Last Round
Strategy Talk
The strategy was revolves around using high hp units and healer to keep them toped up such as the wave brood and Angelic Mandarin pair which is quite strong since wave brood will taunt the enemies to attack it while the Angelic Mandarin will heal 1/3 of the wave brood's max hp every turn which will protect the weaker units on the team from being targeted, this strategy works better at higher level since the units have more hp and normally have better abilities
such as repair and void which can reduce the damage taken or basically give a free damage negate unless the opponent's unit has the piecing ability .
Angelic Mandarin should be gotten to level 4 before use for its triage ability but a level 5 copy is recommended for gold league plays since that extra one point of damage can affect the result of battle, the gold foil version is a lot more expensive and I feel should be gotten if you can afford it but the regular foil is more than enough to use, unless you are chasing that extra 10% rp bonus.
