Banished from Below 3 of 5 - A massive race of rat-like people called venari have lived in the Strite for thousands of years. They are skilled technicians and mechanics who can make advanced devices and tools the likes of which Splinterlanders have never seen.
The venari controls powerful forms of magic that they have synthesized from the minerals and mana flows of the Strite. Through their complex field of science called smithing, they have been able to create and recreate many types of natural and magical phenomena from any magical element.

Initially, Venari Wavesmith gets a very good ability called protect that provides +2 armor to all your monsters.
At level 4, Venari Wavesmith increases damage by 1 which is good if you're using it a lot of time.
Protect increases the chane of survival of your monsters by providing extra 2 armor as long as Venari Wavesmith is alive. Very good on swarm builds and protecting your back ine against sneaks and snipes.
Dispel is an ability that I don't see or think too much of an advantage. The reason for that is that there's only a few abilities that stick to the monsters. Effects like inspire or those that tends to increase the stats of the monsters, normally dies first before they can abuse its effects.

Standard - No changes on both rules and mechanics of the game.
This line up is not that ideal with Venari Wavesmith because most of the monsters already have high health. Protect would just be a bonus, like a cherry on top, but even so, you can never have too much armor in Splinterlands.

Round 3
Round 4
A clean game ending me in a win after 4 rounds.
Did your strategy worked?
YES
The high defenses of my monsters allowed then to triumph over the opponent. The extra armor allows my Battering Ram to survive a lot of turns which helped in dealing damage throughout the game.
What will you try differently next time?
I think the strategy worked but could be better by using low mana cost monsters. Quantity over Quality is where Venari Wavesmith shines.
Do you like Venari Wavesmith ? Why or Why not?
I really like using protect ability and a bunch of low mana cost monsters. I think the build is strong unless you're against magic damage builds, wherein their attacks passes through your monster's armor. Other than that, I think it's a good strategy not being utilized by many.
Good luck and Have fun grinding!
