The first match we are going to review is 15 mana pool battle with the Armored up Ruleset. Both me and my enemy wanted to counter this armor buff by using the Wizard of Eastwood summoner.
Knowing that this will be a physical battle, I went with Mycelic Infantry for its shield ability, and Goblin Thief because of it's 2 attack with sneak.
The enemy lineup is composed of Venari Knifer which is a solid choice for it's Thorns ability, Goblin Thief as well, annd Xenith Archer to provide some range damage.

Battle 1 Round 1
I was able to quickly take out the xenith archer using my Goblin Thief. However it also took damage from the sneak attack of the same card and it's hp is down to 1. However, My Mycelic Infantry still has 2 armor and full health. The Venari Knifer on the other hand is down to 3 hp. It's pretty even at this point.

Battle 1 Round 2
My goblin thief went down this round. The Venari Knifer is down to 1 health. And My tank has 6 hp left. It is still anybody's game and the next rounds will be critical on whoever gets to attack first.

Battle 1 Round 3
I was able to remove the venari knifer from play in the third round. And despite taking melee hits and thorns damage. My tank is still left with 3 hp. But due to the shield ability, I can withstand 3 more attacks. While I can eliminate the remaining goblin thief in just one hit. I will win this match.

The ruletset is Even Stevens, with 17 Mana on the pool. My opponent chose Mother Khala as her summoner, the health buff is countered by my summoner Thaddius Brood.
My monster lineup consists of Cursed Windeku for it's thorns ability, Venari Bonesmith which has life leech, and Xenith Archer to provide backline defense and range damage.
The opponent used a high hp Crystal Jaguar as tank, Elven Mystic and Time Mage for some magic damage, and Celestial Harpy that will attack low hp monsters with its oppurtunity abilities.

Battle 2 Round 1
By the end of the first round. The crystal jaguar is down to 1 health it took 4 damage from the thorns and normal attack of cursed windeku as well as magic damage of venari bonesmith. My venari bonesmith gained 1 hp raising it's total to 4. The xenith archer has been attacked by the celestial harpy dropping its hp down to 1.

Battle 2 Round 2
The crystal jaguar has been taken out. My cursed windeku is just down to 4 hp. Still a bit good as it could last for the whole round 3. My xenith archer was eliminated by celestial harpy. And what i have going for me is that my venari bonesmith now has 5 hp.

Battle 2 Round 3
The celestial harpy attacked my cursed windeku, and due to the return damage of thorns was taken out by its own attack. The elven mystic was taken out by my Cursed Windeku and the only monster left for my enemy is the time mage.

Batttle 2 Round 4
Sitting at 7hp, there's no way that my venari bonesmith would lose against the time mage that only has 1 hp left. This is a guaranteed victory for me.


Battle 3 Water vs Water
Watch it here: https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_6119abebd02de29279ea7116cb320092&ref=beerbod
This is a 21 mana battle, with up close and personal rule where only melee monsters can be used.
We both used the same Kelya as our summoner. My lineup is composed of Serpent of Eld, Deeplurker, Pelacor Bandit and Hardy Stonefish.
The opponent used 3 of the same cards i was using, Serpent of Eld, Hardy Stonefish and Deeplurker. Finally adding Cruel Sethropod in the mix.

Battle 3 Round 1
Its even in the first position with both serpent of elds losing their armor. I have a bit of an advantage as my pelacor bandit has taken out the deep lurkers armor. Both deeplurkers are attacking hardy stonefish.

Battle 3 Round 2
In a surprising twist, I evaded the first position attack and my serpent of eld still sits at full hp. While the opponents' is down to 2 hp. Both Hardy Stonefish has been taken out. The deeplurker also took damage from pelacor bandit.

Battle 3 Round 3
The enemy tank has been taken out early in the third round. My pelacor bandit has already lost its armor. But my deeplurker is still complete with armor and hp. With 3 cards to 2. I have a strong advantage heading to the next rounds.

Battle 3 Round 4
With the deeplurker being taken out, I will easily cruise through a victory here as the only monter left is the cruel sethropod. I still have 3 summons left which are relatively healthy for battle.
