Hello Friend!

Not all of my favorite Battles Of The Day are against Summoners or Monsters that I think are over powered but I defeat anyway. Sometimes my favorite games are against people I've know in Hive and Splinterlands for a long time and consider them friends even though we've never met. I don't even need to win (and usually don't), I just enjoy playing against people I know and interact with from time to time.

Today's favorite Battle Of The Day was against @rentmoney whom I have known for a while and is a great Hivean. He posts great articles and is always looking for ways to help other get started. Go check out his feed and throw an upvote or two his way why you're at it.

The match started pretty even I would say. I had been expecting him to play Water Splinter which is why I lead with Lord Arianthus and backed him up with Prismatic Energy. Boy did I ever miss the mark there.

Since we were both packing a lot of healing, Round 2 started pretty much the same as round 1 except for my missing Creeping Ooze which had just been killed by @rentmoney's Goblin Sorcerer.

Round 3 started the same as round 2 with both our tanks badly injured. The spirit of the Forest healed the Gelatinous Cube first, but it wasn't enough as my magic users hit it repeatedly and destroyed it. But @rentmoney's archers struck back and before the end of the round Lord Arianthus was also removed for combat.

Round 4 started with my team badly outnumbered. But my team rallied and cut down the Earth Elemental and wounded the Spirit of the Forest.

Unable to heal herself fully, the Spirit of the Forest succumbed to my magic attack in the 5th round.

At the start of Round 6, Prismatic Energy was able to get off an attack against the Swamp Thing before being destroyed by @rentmoney's Javelin Thrower.

Finally in Round 7, my Ruler of the Sea and Mermaid Healer were able to take out the last opponents and victory was mine. Congratulations @rentmoney on a hard fought battle. I look forward to when we meet in the arena again.
