Odd Ones Out: Alric Stormbringer is IN
This week, I'm also sharing another game in Odd Ones Out ruleset using water element.
But this time, with the help of Alric Stormbringer. There are a lot of great magic monsters with odd mana.
You can check out this BATTLE MAGE SECRETS Weekly Challenge link if you also want to participate.
Ruleset:
Odd Ones Out
Broken Arrows
Fog of War
Mana Cap: 55
Elements: Water, Earth
This is a Odd Ones Out ruleset game so Only Monsters with odd Mana costs may be used in battles.
There are no special tricks for this ruleset, but having an idea of mana points of a few monsters helps in predicting what your opponent can and cannot use.
This is a Broken Arrows ruleset game so Ranged attack Monsters may not be used in this battle.
Give your tank a back up with a tank heal support. Using Thorns or Magic Reflect is also very useful in this rule set. Defend against either Magic or Melee attacks.
This is a Fog Of War ruleset game so Monsters lose the Sneak and Snipe abilities.
A good tank and a balanced line up of Magic and Ranged monsters is the trick to win in this ruleset. Use monsters with Opportunity. Keep your monsters in an ascending order of their HP.
