Things to know about Djinn Chwala:
- This card will almost certainly be used in a melee only battle ruleset.
- Because it's from Dragon Race you can expect your enemy to use Drake of Arnak as the summoner
- It's high armor and high health makes it a perfect frontliner.
- Thorns ability sets this tank apart from the rest
- However it has low attack and low speed which should be your focus when countering.

Round 1
My opponents lineup and mine are identical. We both went with 2 suppports thru diviine healer and Venari Crystalsmith. We both have a plus 1 armor summoner. However like what i always point out. It is best to have at least 1 backliner which has 2 damage every round. In my case i have the peacebringer. My tanks is the silvershiled paladin which with the help of supports can sustain the thorns damage.
this battle has the oppurtunity ruleset
Round 2
Because of the equal oppurtunity ruleset. My ranged summons has been attacking his divine healer. This ruleset went to my favor and acted somewhat like a snipe ability. At the start of the second round notice how his divine healer is already low on health. While the rest of my lineup has only lost armor.
Round 3
Entering this round, I've already eliminated his first support. And he is only left with an armorless Venari Crystalsmith. My divine healer is down to 3 health. But it doesn't really matter that much as my opponent only deals 1 ranged damage per round. It will take 3 more round before my divine healer goes down. And i am confident that his backline healer would go down first.
Round 4
My silvershield paladin has not taken any damage despite being attacked each round by djinn chwalla. And despite taking thorns damage. My 2 healers in the secondary positions are doing more than an acceptable job of sustaining my tank. His healer on the other hands will get eliminated this round.
Round 5 to 7
It's an easy path to victory from this point on. It's a flawless victory where i did not lose any cards at all. The shield ability reduced my tanks incoming damage. The heal of the supports more than made up for lost hp of my tank due to taking thorn reflect damage. And my peacebringer ensured that I have decent damage each round.
