Social Media Challenge | The ruleset, which will rule them all! π

This week I brought a Wild Ranked battle, where the rulesets (especially one of them) will decide the outcome of the battle easily if me or my opponent is not going to build our team around it, so it will be interesting to see what we are going to do about it! π



| Ruleset | Description |
|---|---|
| Noxious Fumes | All Monsters start the battle Poisoned |
| Fire & Regret | All units have the Return Fire ability. |
The mana cap was 53, which is quite good, because it will give some space to pick any kind of strategy I want in order to win this battle. Their will be multiple strategy available, because I can build a team either to kill quickly or just to stall the time long enough with one monster to win this battle. π
The reason is that the Noxious Fumes ruleset will give the Poison status effect to all the monsters on the battlefield, so all of them will take two Poison damage at the start of every round until they die. Their are options to counter that, with huge Health, Immunity ability or to Cleanse the status effect from some of the monsters and that is why I like this ruleset so much. π
The Fire & Regret ruleset will give the Return Fire ability, to all the monsters on the battlefield, which means if a Ranged attack monster attacks their target they will reflect some of their damage back to their attacker. π€

Franz Ruffmane

My plan was to use Franz Ruffmane as my Summoner from the Life Splinter, becasuse he gives +1 Armor to his monsters, which will allow allow of them to be able to block one incoming Melee or Ranged attack, which is neat. He is also able to bring one additional Gladiator monster into this battleand I always try to take advantage of that! π

The Drybone Barbarian is an excellent tank and he is more likely an offensive one and not a defensive, because he has high Melee attack, Speed and Health and his Melee attack will be increased when he is Enraged. To get the 50% increase on his Melee attack he has to be damaged. He also has the Retaliate ability, so whenever he receives an attack he will have 50% chance to get a free attack back to his attacker. πͺ

Marisol Contuma

Marisol Contuma will be my Gladiator monster for this battle and she has amazing stats. Her best ability hands down is her Bloodlust one and that is why she is a Gladiator monster, which means that she will be able to increase all of her stats by one if she manages to kill her target. She also has the Reach ability, so she will be able to attack from the second position, which is a huge a advantage to acquire a lot of death blows. π€

Venari Marksrat

The Venari Marksrat cost only three mana, which makes him easy to use, but he has only one very important feature that I brought him and that is not his mana cost! He has the Martyr ability, which is quite unique in this game and allows a lot of option to strategise. What that essentialy means is whenever he dies he will activate his ability to increase all the stats of his adjacent monsters by one. Usually it is hard to achieve to "kill" him first, but the Noxious Fumes ruleset will help a lot for that! π€

Iziar cost quite a lot of mana, but he has one very important role in this battle, which is her Taunt ability, because whenever a monster from the enemy team attacks they have to attack my Iziar (except their tank and monster in the second position with the Reach ability, which will help a lot for the rest of my team members to survive long enough to deal their damage. She also has +2 Magic attack (without any debuff) on her own with a lot of Health against the Poison and incoming damages plus the Void ability, which will make her quite resilient against the enemy Magic attacks, because it will halves all the incoming Magic attacks targeting her. π

I used the Djinn Renova to take advantage of her Triage ability, which means that she will restore some Health to one the monster in my lineup, which usually will be my Iziar. Using her will extend the life of Iziar, so hopefully that will be enough to protect her for few rounds. She will also use her Fortify ability to increase the Health of all of her friendly monsters by one, which might help a lot against the Noixious Fumes ruleset. π

I know that the Luceheim Demon is a Ranged attack one, so he will kill himself quick against the Return Fire abilities on the enemy monster, but he is quite an amazing damage dealer with his +3 Ranged attack, so he will deal some serious damage, before he will die. The most important ability that I brought him into my team is his Cleanse ability, so he will be able to remove all the negative status effects such as the Poison from my monster in the first position, which is amazing. π



My opponent brought Helios Matriarch who is a Dragon Summoner and her power is to give +1 Speed to all of her monsters and on top of that just like mine she is able to use of additional Gladiator monster in this battle if she wishes to do that. π
Both of our team's were pretty strong and solid and that is why none of our monsters was able to kill any of the monsters in our lineups. Luckily their Djinn Chwala took some serious damage and at the start of the second round it killed him.
Their new tank Ujurak Brave is an aexcellent tank and he is Immune against the Poison as well, but luckily my Barbarian was already damaged, which activated his Enrage ability and attacked him with eight of his damage. π
My opponent had quite a lot of Heal, but luckily my Iziar was quicker than that and killed their Ujurak right after the attack from my Barbarian.
In the third round my solid front monsters killed their Dragon tank and Usut replaced him in the first position and their received quite a lot of Heal to allow them to survive this round as well. π
At the beginning of the fourth round the Poison damage took its toll and finally their Healer died and also my Marksrat as well, which was very good.
Their was only their Night Reaper left on the battlefield and he almost killed my tank he couldn't do much against the rest of my team, which allowed me to win this battle. π
