Overview

The new Weekly ruleset Challenge is an amazing twist that I am enjoying so far and I hope there will be twists like that in the future to keep this Challenge's fresh. 😁

This week the ruleset is the Explosive Weaponry, which means all units gain the Blast ability. 😁

Additional damage is equivalent to main damage divided by 2, rounded up. Include a unit with Reflection Shield in your lineup to absorb blast damage and protect your back line. 😉


The upcoming Battle ruleset

RulesetDescription
Explosive WeaponryAll Monsters have the Blast ability.
Even StevensOnly Monsters with even Mana costs may be used in battles.

The mana cap for my next battle was 36, which is enough to use my favorite monsters and build, but it is hardly enough to fill up my team with the best (and highest mana cost) monsters in the game. The Even Stevens ruleset makes it even more difficult to assemble the team, because it essentialy halves the available monster pool, so both parties will be able to choose only the Even mana cost monsters.

The Exposive Weaponry is one of my favorite ruleset, because it allows me to use different tactics than I usually use, because the Blast damage will deal extra damage to all the monsters of the target monster. 👌

My lineup

Possibilus the Wise is a six mana cost summoner, but the Even Stevens ruleset is only applicable to the monsters. Still I used him, because the Water deck has a lot of amazing even mana cost monsters and I can use my favorite combo with Possibilus, because he gives the Reach ability to all of his monsters. He also gives +2 health and the Trample ability to all of his monsters as well. 😊
The Diemonshark cost 8 mana and he is one of the best tank in the Water Splinter even though he doesn't have any defensive ability only his high speed, health and armor. 😁

The Coastal Sentry is the core reason that I use Possibilus in this game otherwise I would use Kelya. The Coastal Sentry can not attack on its own, but with the help of the Reach ability she will be able to do that and she will be use her Double Strike ability from the second position dealing huge amount of damage. 😌
The Deeplurker cost 6 mana and the main reason I used him is, because he has the Opportunity ability, which means that he will target the lowest health monster from the enemy team and with the use of his Blast ability he will be able to deal significant damage against the enemy backline. 😇

Igor Darkspear cost only 2 mana, so he is the perfect fit into any kind of team and he is able to deal two ranged attack damage plus the Blast damage next to his target. 😆
The Merdhampir cost only 4 mana, so it is perfect for this team and ruleset. He is a ranged attack monster with two attack damage and the Life Leech (Monster's health increases each time it damages an enemy Monster's health in proportion to the damage dealt) and Cripple (Monster's health increases each time it damages an enemy Monster's health in proportion to the damage dealt) ability. 😉

The Torrent Fiend is just a backline protector in case my opponent would bring something big to attack my backline directly. 😎

My opponent brought Kelya Frendul from the Water Splinter. He cost only 4 mana and his ability is to increase the speed and armor to all of his friendly monsters.

The enemy monsters were a bit quicker than my monsters, because Kelya gave them one extra Speed, but luckily my monsters survived their first attack. 😊

At the and of the first round my team managed to kill their first three monsters thanks to the Reach ability from Possibilus and for the Double Strike Coastal Sentry.

In the second round my Diemonshark killed their Deeplurker from the first position and he received an extra attack using the Trample ability from Possibilus.

Finishing and winning the battle was easy from now one and I have a lot to thanks to my Summoner. 🙏

Battle Result

Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?

My strategy worked very well and the only thing was to survive the first round, so my monsters could counter attack their team, which worked very well. 😊
