SHARE YOUR BATTLE CHALLENGE! ⛰️Mycelic Infantry

THE MYCELIC INFANTRY
The Mycelic Infantry is a strong but really slow monster. Given that this monster's speed starts and ends at 1, one may think that this beast is pretty useless but that just is not the case. The monster's speed might not be impressive but its other stats are pretty good. Its damage starts at 3x up to 5x at level 6, health starts at 7x and is maxed to 10x at level 7, and toughness starts at 3x and is maintained at that.
The Mycelic Infantry's health and toughness come in handy with the Shield ability. It also has the Giant Killer ability that basically makes it a sleeping beast with a lot of attack damage. Now, to make up for the low speed, the Mycelic Infantry gets the Enrage ability at max level. Combine this ability with the Giant Killer and we have a total beast on our hands.

Round 1:

- As usual, the summoners start with their buffs. Obsidian increases Goblin Psychic's magic damage while Mother Khala increases the health of all enemy monsters by +1.
- Time Mage reduces the speed of Venari Scout to 1.
- All the enemy monsters launch attacks on Mycelic Infantry but its shield protects it from most of the damage.
- Goblin Psychic heals Mycelic Infantry before throwing magic balls at Shieldbearer.
- Mycelic Infantry and Venari Scout destroy the taunting Shieldbearer's toughness.
Round 2:

- The enemy monsters all attack the Mycelic Infantry but its Shield preserves it with 3x health.
- Again, Goblin Psychic heals the Mycelic Infantry and then attacks Shieldbearer.
- The Mycelic Infantry and Venari Scout follow up the Goblin's attack with deadly blows that end the Shieldbearer.
Round 3:

- With Pelacor Arbalest in front, the enemy has just one attacker - the Time Mage - who launches a weak 1x magic attack on the Mycelic Infantry.
- The Goblin Psychic quickly heals up the large fungus before destroying Pelacor Arbalest.
- Time Mage is forced to the front where she receives a collective 4x blow from the Mycelic Infantry and Venari Scout. DEFEATED!
Victory!
Well, that was over quickly. The enemy barely proved to be a challenge against my strong team. Mother Khala may be old and experienced but her years of practice did not pay off in this match. Maybe she should have focused on fighting rather than humming.

Did My Strategy Work?
My strategy worked fine. The idea to put Mycelic Infantry on the frontline was good because his shield was able to keep him strong and fighting. Of course, this monster's support was also very good. Goblin Psychic was a great support as he was able to keep healing the tank despite all the hits. What a team!
Do I like the Mycelic Infantry
I really like the Mycelic Infantry. This monster was one of the Earth monsters that I really wanted back when I started. The low speed of this monster does not make me like it less especially given that it has that awesome Shield ability. That ability combined with the high health makes this guy quite the tank.
I have the Mycelic Infantry at level 4 but I use it at level 1 and 2 these days because I play mostly novice and bronze. I really wish I can use this monster's Giant killer but that would be in the future.
