Hello everyone and welcome to my contest! I decided to try something a little different this time and want to introduce a battle contest!

The idea is that I'd like to highlight a battle or two featuring some strange, exciting, or FRUSTRATING battles for your viewing pleasure!

How This Will Work

This community is great and very welcoming to newcomers. If you browse PeakD, you'll see just how much user generated content there is which ranges from basic how to play guides, to more advanced strategies from the top leaderboard players, to investment advice!

To do my part in giving back, I'm starting a giveaway!

The rules are simple:

1. Comment below with an interesting, strange, or hilarious battle (don't forget to include your in-game name)
2. Provide a short comment on what makes your battle unique or special
3. Upvote this post
4. Entries must be entered before the post pays out (7 days from when I post).
5. You may submit up to 3 entries but you can only win once.

That's it!

If I select your battle to be featured on my next post, I'll send you a prize! Runner-up prizes will also be given!

Featured Battle Winner: @Henruc!

Congratulations @henruc! You brought the HEAT this week with your submissions with each of them being great. Ultimately, I chose this battle because about halfway through I just didn't see how you were going to pull it off.

With Divine Shield and Melee only, Windeku with Self Heal is going to do a LOT of damage. Add in the double Demoralize and those it becomes super difficult to to kill anything. I mean how do you deal 1 damage to a monster that heals itself while you're taking 2 damage back and expect to win?

Retaliate Saves the Day

That clutch Retaliate allowed henruc to take out the Windeku before it got to take out the Serpentine Spy with Thorns and it also would've removed Divine Shield from the Flame Monkey, making the next attacks easier on your opponent.

That wasn't it though, there was still the ending that required a bit of luck to win.

At the end of the battle, you can see a few things work in your favor. The nice Poison landing in addition to all the Dodges.

Great battle @henruc and congratulations on winning the GOLD Pelacor Deceiver!

Runner-Up #1: @Tinyputerboy with the Jacek/Grum Combo

Perfect use of Grum right here when paired with Jacek. Piercing, Speed, and Blast are all deadly combinations when Grum is in the picture.

Very well played by @tinyputerboy and congratulations on the Twilight Basilisk!
