💀 ALL ABOUT LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR 💀


LORE

The Chaos Legionnaires are ruthless warriors and the Chaos Legion's elite fighting force. Alvar Veralyn was conscripted into their ranks at a young age after his family was slain and his world conquered by the Chaos Legion. The harsh conditioning that all conscripts receive nearly broke the child, but in the end, his old, easy way of life was subsumed by the desire for battle and conquest. Alvar dedicated himself to his training, intent on reshaping his mind and his body until he had no equal on the battlefield. Eventually, he rose to the rank of General and now stands as leader of the Chaos Legionnaires.

Alvar is a most imposing sight on the battlefield. His armor is imbued to withstand the strongest of magical attacks, and even the mightiest of foes is no match for his massive, two-handed sword, which some say was forged in the Realm of Nightmare. He lives for battle, wading through his enemies and striking them down as he seeks out the strongest among them to engage in single combat. He enjoys nothing more than watching the life fade from his opponent's eyes. His conquests are legendary even among the Legionnaires, and he earned the title of Godkiller after the Battle of Dargnilat, during which he single-handedly defeated one of the Old Gods.

Level 1: Legionnaires have a massive shield of 8 and 6 health power, 2 speed, and 2 melee damage. It is a great tank at 9 mana because to his incredible shield. Another thing is that it has void armor, which causes the damage from magic attacks to hit the armor before the health.

⚔️ MY TEAM ⚔️

I decided to use Grandmaster Rathe since it has additional armor, void, and amplifies which is a good ability that increases thorns damage to all enemy monsters by 1. Add some cards with reach, demoralize, sneak, opportunity, and heal at the back line. A good team almost all of them doing their job to kill their enemy. The first 3 monster does have gigantic shield able to receive first the damage before the health power.

⚔️ OPPONENT'S TEAM ⚔️

The enemy also chose a tank with a high shield and summoner who has additional 2 health power, reach and trample ability. The team is composed of sneak, opportunity, and inspire abilities. A good strategy that increases the melee attack of the friendly monster. The melee attack of the enemy remains the same because of the Disintegrator ability which is demoralized and reduces the melee damage of the opponent. With the help of Possibillus, the enemy monster now gains additional 2 health power. Enemy monster now have a high health power and much quicker compared with my team.

⚔️ CARD POSITION ⚔️

FIRST POSITION

Legionnaire Alvar the tank, who has a high shield of 8 and health power of 6, is an excellent choice for this position because all enemy assaults will be aimed first at his armor before harming his health power, making him vulnerable to damage. Due to the fact that the ruleset is only available for melee monsters, Void Armor is useless in this conflict..

SECOND POSITION

)

Sunkai Harvester is acceptable for this position because it has the capacity to attack even while he is in the second position. Despite having a respectable 3 speed, it only has 1 melee damage.

THIRD POSITION

This monster has the demoralize ability which reduces melee attack of all the enemy monster causing them to deal less damage in my team.

FOURTH POSITION

Stitch leech is my choice in this position since he can still attack with the heal of his sneak ability. Dealing 2 damage on the targeted monster.

FIFTH POSITION


The sneak monster is close to the celestial harpy, who has the opportunity ability. These two monsters will aid one another in killing the other. She goes after creatures with low health.

SIXTH POSITION

For the last position, Xenith Monk will receive all the damage from the sneak monster even though he can not strike back since it does not have the ability to do so, he can still able to survive with the help of his heal ability..

⚔️ BATTLE ⚔️

Look at the thorns damage to the enemy monster deeplurker! The normal damage for thorn is only 2 but with the help of amplify ability from Rathe, it deals 3 damage on the opponent! It was directly hit to his health since it does not have armor.

Say goodbye to Tide Biter as he was no choice but attacking my team but still get 3 damage because of the thorn plus amplify ability. Demented will be able to attack because of the ability given by Possibillus which is the reach ability. Pelacor Bandit also got killed after attacking Xenith Monk but Deeplurker revenge on my team an taken away the health of Sunkai Harvester and tramples on the next monster and got killed also since Deeplurker only has 3 remaining health power and got thorn.

As the rumble continues, Diemonshark and Demented Shark is the only enemy monster left in the enemy team. No armor and only h health power leaft while my team is still fighting for victory! Xenith Monk still heal himself from the damage he receive, he has no other choice but to stay calm and heal.

image.png

This time, sneaky leech dont have enough health power and got thorn after attacking Demented Shark. The enemy health power is only 3 and will get killed when it is their turn to attack my monster.

Did your strategy work?

Yes, my method was successful since all of my monsters were interconnected. Almost all of my friendly monster does have a chance to attack because of the ability they have. One factor why my team was able to receive less damage is because of the armor provided by Rathe and the Amplify ability which causes the enemy monster to receive damage from thorns a total of 3. Some of the enemy monsters does not have armor even though they have enough health power.

What will you try differently next time?

The following time, I will use Alvar to battle with the mage and will use tank heal plus shield repair monster for him to last longer in the battle field.
