The Prologue:
The current meta are mages. Those low mana creatures from the Water Tribe is annoying to deal with since they are mostly free and magic damage actually ignores armor making them really hard to deal with. In order for you to climb higher, you should have a counter strategy for them so those matches would be considered a "free win."
With them being rampant in the current game, I give you the cheapest counter for these annoying little mages using the Life Kingdom.
The Strategy:
The idea is Crystal Werewolf's Silence would decrease all magic damage by 1 then Clay Golem's Void ability would block them making the current mages meta useless. I chose this rather than the others because this is the cheapest there is. You only spend 0.22 DEC per day for rent and you can get a solid front line that counters mages.
Card Needed:
Crystal Werewolf is a card you can rent for very cheap. I just rented one for 0.22 DEC per day and by winning 1 game, it already paid for itself. He has a decent stats and mana cost which makes him a good first or second tank. I always play him second in case the opponent did not use any mages in that game.
What makes Crystal Werewolf special, besides his awesome name, is his silence ability. Silence decreases all magic damage by 1. This works the same as Bortus Summoner and counters all mages specially Alric Summoner which increases all magic damage by 1.
The Battle:
Here is an example of how effective this combo is. Even if the opponent increases his damage via Alric's effect, it is immediately countered by Crystal Werewolf's Silence effect and Clay Golem's Void effect completely blocks the damage without having a single damage throughout the game.
