π•΄π–“π–™π–—π–”π–‰π–šπ–ˆπ–™π–Žπ–”π–“

There are battles where raw damage isn’t enough to win, and that’s where strategy makes all the difference. Equalizer battles change everything because even the weakest monster can become just as tough as your tank. In these moments, team synergy matters far more than anything. As they say, "There's no I in team."

Meriput Mossmender shines in this kind of setup. With the usual problem of low health, this modifier completely covers that weakness. Fixing the weakness of health only strengthened the entire team. The longer the support monsters live, the higher your chance of winning the battles. Despite me being in disadvantage in this battle, I'll prove to you that I can still win with strategy and synergy.

Faust is many things. As Demise Archon, he is the leader of the Dark Eternals. He is a chamen, a human of an infernal bloodline. He is a revenant and one of the undead. He is a follower of the Dark Codex and seeks to bring about the end of all sufferingβ€”and the end of all life, as well.

His most faithful feline is Tofu, an awakened tabby of supreme intelligence. So beloved is he that Faust gifted the cat with undeath but preserved his soul in a box so that he may live eternal alongside his master.

Within Meriput's burrows, Tamel Brightwhisker is something of a prodigy. Using nothing more than a little moss and elbow grease, he can heal wounds, cure maledictions, and reinforce damaged armor twice as fast as any mouse around.

When the battle mage was set upon by arachnes while traveling through the Deep, Tamel tended to their injuries and treated their poison. He saw the battle mage safely through the tunnels of the Upper Daigendark to the surface, fending off venari, onyx orcs, and other not-so-friendly denizens along the way.

Eternal Tofu is expensive to buy because it’s one of the few Archons that provide three powerful buffs at once: +2 Health, Thorns, and Snare. These abilities make it useful in almost any lineup, increasing both survivability and countering specific situations. The summoner tactics are also good which adds to the cost of buying or renting this archon.

It’s expensive to rent because players often need it for specific rules where survivability and control matter most. The combination of Health boost and Thorns can turn defensive teams into major threats, giving renters a strong edge in close matches. Since it’s highly sought-after during tournaments and high-league play, the daily rental price stays high.

Meriput Mossmender is cheap to buy because it’s a common support monster, making it easier to find in the market. The low price gives it reason to be good. It provides good repair that fits any build that benefits armor. This makes it an affordable yet efficient option for players who want good cards without spending much.

It’s cheap to rent because its demand isn’t as high compared to rarer supports or Archons. Still, for less than 2 DEC per day, it offers consistent healing that helps tanks stay alive longer. Its low cost makes it a smart rental for new or budget players looking for efficiency.

Eternal Tofu is a Legendary summoner from the Rebellion Series.

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

Eternal Tofu has good abilities that gives +2 Health, Thorns, and Snare to all allies, creating both offensive and defensive advantages that make it one of the most versatile Archons in the game. It can command monsters from Earth and Life element combined giving you more flexibility in what you can use per battle. The Summoner Tactics are also good and reliable. The first set can be used mostly against melee units while the second set is a more general use and can be especially helpful when you have Taunt monsters supporting the back line. It's a really good benefit but not a mandatory combo.


πŸ’Š Abilities πŸ’Š


+2 Health

All friendly monsters has their Max Health increased by 2.

Snare Full.png

Any monsters with Flying ability that is attacked by this monster gets Snared Status. Snared monsters loses their Flying abilities until the end of battle.

Thorns Full.png

Any opponent's melee monster that attack this monster will take 2 melee damage back.

Tofu Summoner Tactics

Set 1: & : Good when the other option will not be useful. This set is useful if you want to focus on reducing the enemy's armor, if they have a lot of Repair and melee monsters.

Set 2: & : This is the one you would be using most of the time. Triage is good on healing the backline Taunt monsters and Scavenger is good overall but usually paired with the target of healing as heals scales with max health.

Meriput Mossmender has really low stats especially on lower levels. The 2 health on level 1 is very problematic so you need to keep it protected or it would die early. Equalizer modifier will be good in these situations to increase this monster's survivability.


πŸ’Š Abilities πŸ’Š



Repair Full.png

At level 1, Repair is unlocked. At the start of this monster's turn, restore the friendly monster's armor by 2. This ability will prioritize the monster with most damage to its armor

The Repair ability restores armor to friendly monsters, letting them absorb more hits over time. This makes it especially good in long fights especially with tanks that rely on armor to function. The consistent repair of armor can sometimes completely change the flow of combat by reducing the amount of real damage taken from melee and range attacks.



Dodge Full.png

At level 2, Dodge is unlocked. Monsters that attack this card has their maximum hit chance reduced by 25% during that attack.

Dodge increases a monster’s chance to avoid melee and range attacks. This ability helps it survive much longer especially since the low health doesn't help. It’s especially powerful when combined with Speed boosts or Blind effects. A single missed hit can turn the tide of a battle, making Dodge a great defensive ability.



Cleanse Full.png

At level 4, Cleanse is unlocked. At the start of this monster's turn, remove all negative status from the monster on 1st position.

Cleanse removes all negative effects from the first position monster at the start of each round. This helps counter debuffs like Poison, Weary, or Affliction that could otherwise cripple your tank. It’s a key ability for keeping frontline monsters performing at their best throughout the match.


Echo

At level 8, is unlocked. Active abilities (Repair and all healing and cleansing abilities) trigger twice per round.

At max level, you unlock one of the best ability in the game because this allows your Repair and Cleanse to work twice per round. While it's not as useful on Cleanse but double Repair is really strong especially when paired with right monsters like those with Void Armor.

Lineup
𝔓π”₯𝔬𝔱𝔬 𝔣𝔯𝔬π”ͺ π”ͺ𝔢 π”–π”­π”©π”¦π”«π”±π”’π”―π”©π”žπ”«π”‘π”° π”žπ” π” π”¬π”²π”«π”±.


Eternal Tofu: This Archon gives +2 Health to all friendly monsters, which makes the whole team sturdier from the start. The added Thorns punishes melee attackers, while Snare ensures flying opponents can’t avoid hits. It acts as a strong support piece for everyone that improves both defense and control across the board.

  1. Grimbardun Fighter: Grimbardun Fighter serves as the main tank of the team. The high health, solid armor, and the Shield ability, all of those combined can endure a lot of melee and range damage. His melee attacks can also let him chip away at opponents while holding the front line.
  2. Harbinger of Chaos: Harbinger of Chaos adds valuable magic damage to the team and can even act as a secondary tank thanks to his high health. His magic attacks ignore armor, which helps take down tough monsters. When the main tank starts to fall, Harbinger can safely hold the front while continuing to be the source of damage.
  3. Meriput Magician: This monster plays a key support role by keeping the tanks alive through its Tank Heal ability. Its small amount of magic damage also contributes consistent damage. Meriput Magician is especially important when paired with durable monsters like Grimbardun Fighter, as it helps them survive longer battles.
  4. Meriput Mossmender: Although fragile, Meriput Mossmender provides great utility with its Repair ability, fixing the armor of tanks each round. This allows Grimbardun Fighter to stay effective even after taking heavy damage. The extra bit of extra armor per round from Repair makes a big difference in long fights.
  5. Silverleaf Ranger: Silverleaf Ranger serves as the team’s other main source of damage. With 3 ranged attack, Double Strike, and the Weary debilitation, it can quickly eliminate down opponents during her turns. Its low speed and Weary debilitation can be a problem though over time.

πŸ”Έ α—ͺIα—ͺ YOα‘Œα–‡ α”•Tα–‡α—©TEGY α—―Oα–‡KEα—ͺ? πŸ”Έ


Yes. The amount of damage and defense in this team is on the good side. I would say it is balanced and Eternal Tofu's Thorns and increased health are really good for this team. I also had a lucky encounter because the opponent gave their team Blast while in Deflection Field modifier rendering it useless.

Silverleaf Ranger.
Silverleaf Ranger is strong. Don't get me wrong. However, there are three reasons I don't like her. First, it's a range monster. Range monster cannot attack while in 1st position which is bad when you get in a desperate situation where only 1 monster on each side is alive. Second, it has only 2 Speed. This means Silverleaf Ranger may miss most of the time making her strength useless. Lastly, the Weary debilitation. It's not enough that it may miss most of its attack but may also skip the turn altogether. I haven't changed her because I cannot find an affordable substitute but she is the only one I want to change in this lineup.

Yes. Equalizer removes Meriput Mossmender's problem which is low health. This removes any possible of Opportunity attack threats keeping my Meriput Mossmender Safe
