This is a wonderful challenge!! A lot of people start to forget how wonderful is Spineback turtle. So this challenge can let people start to appreciate more about Spineback turtle.
Have a look at my
Spineback turtle.
This is one of the 4 alpha gold card that I have. Aint it amazing. With just 4 mana, you can get a 2 melee atk and 5 shield and 7hp. With a torn skill, you can bet that the turtle can bring down several big monsters even with just defending itself. Sadly, now I dont have a high level summoner to bring out the full potential of turtle.
Nice, the Holy Protection rule will just further enhance my turtle ability!

Lineup:
With only 22 mana to play with, turtle is a great choice for being a tank.
| Position | Monster | Remark |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Spineback Turtle | Tanker with torn for only 4mana |
| 2nd | Uraeus | Sneaker, deal damage to the back |
| 3rd | Pelacor Bandit | Sneaker again |
| 4th | Dr Blight | Counter if enemy use a tank with heal and support with a tank healer |
| 5th | Kulu Swimhunter | 2 range atk, nice hp reasonable spd for only 4 mana |
| 6th | Chicken | No mana left, block sneaker |
There isnt much action from the opponent in round 1, the only atk is the sheep. This is how it looks like at the start of round 2.
At the end of round 2, you can see that the sheep is sneaked death. Their cruel is already 3hp with even posion on it. It is just on the verge of dying. What is worth to note is that turtle still even have 1 shield left!!
This is how it looks like at the end of turn 3. Turtle still have 7hp!
This is how it looks like at the end of turn 4. The winner is already quite obvious.
Strategy:
Opponent actually also choose a good tank: Cruel Sethropod. But as you can compare, spineback turtle overwhelm cruel due to the torn skill. Another things that goes well it is that I realise it is not fesible to put in demented shark as it will in fact even weaken my overall atk power. In exchange, I can put in 2 sneak attack. Dr Blight really shine in level 2 and above, first it can bypass shield and in this case, if the holy protection block the damage, the posion can still hurt the monster.
Improvement:
Kulu actually is dealing quite a good damage. But I am still wondering if it would be better with a tank healing skill to further empower turtle in case the enemy has 1 or 2 magic monsters.
