Thornmaw Berserker as a Frontline Tank : Magic Reflect and Life Leech Its Best Abilities
I got to watch a very interesting 37vmana battle game where I selected 5 monsters and only one slot remained empty. The good thing was that the opponents monsters were also of very good type and an experienced user was playing.
The battle was very interesting. I selected a good combination, kept the positioning correct and that is why I won the match. Up to the third monster the battle was undecided but as soon as BERSERKER entered I understood that this battle was won.
It performed very well and it felt like the strongest tank had now come into position. After that none of my monsters died while I defeated the opponents monsters one by one and in this way the battle came in my name.
THORNMAW BERSERKER belongs to the Death element and has a mana cost of 7. It is a melee-focused monster which is a versatile and strong card. Its main use is as a tank and a frontline damage dealer.
If I talk about its positioning it works like a strong tank in the frontline and in this battle I placed it in the frontline and kept a support monster with it. The reason for this you will understand below why its combination with a support monster is important.
Its best ability is Magic Reflect. Whenever an attack comes it throws 50% magic damage back to the attacker which hits and damages the attacker. That is why it should be selected when playing against a magic team.
Life Leech is its second ability. This monster restores 50% health which helps it stay in the battle for a long time. The effect of its health recovery also impacts other allied units, which works like a type of support.
Which monsters should be placed with it to make it even more dangerous? It is better to have a healer, poison and some defensive units. If you get this combination then keep in mind that you have already won the battle.
Even though this monster is very strong it also has some weaknesses which are important to understand before playing any battle. This monster is vulnerable to ranged and melee focus, meaning strong physical attackers can defeat it.
Its speed is low, especially at low levels and when there is a high speed ruleset it will miss more attacks. And when it is stunned its healing ability is affected so it cannot increase its health again and in this way it struggles in the battle.
That is why I placed it with strong support so that I can cover its weaknesses. Have you ever used this monster? Tell me about any one of its abilities. I will be glad to see your answers in the comment section.
