RE: Splinterlands Amazing Battles – Didactic Analysis #2

Just a few comments from the opposite side (i.e. me 😆):
Usually when there is No Magic in modern with these colours I anticipate a Byzantine Kitty, Mylor Crowling or Lorna/Shieldbearer lineup. Because the mana level was only 24 I thought that a Mylor lineup was most likely, with the Shieldbearer lineup a second most likely option.
The most likely reason I chose Herbalist over Battering Ram at the time is because I was expecting a lot of Thorns / Return Fire action in the battle, and was hoping Triage would cover it. At the same time, Battering Ram struggles against Mylor decks, due to its low HP.
The cheap range at the back was meant to be a cushion for sneakers, while the Poison in the middle was meant to deal the real damage.
All in all, I think my approach worked OKish, but clearly I didn't pick the best strategy there! ;)
Excellent comment. It is complicated to have a strategy that works in all cases, and you end up taking advantage of somehow being able to guess how the opponent will play.
