BATTLE MAGE SECRETS ✶ AIMLESS

The ruleset for this week's challenge

• Aimless - All units have the Scattershot ability

The ruleset that I managed to get

• Rulesets - Wands Out & Aimless
• Mana Cap - 17
• Active Elements -

Here's my starting lineup

Summoner: Bortus

• Because I got Wands Out to my ruleset summoners with +/- magic damage and summoners with abilitys like Void, Void Armor and Magic Reflect were the ones I needed to use to get an advantage
• In my case as earth wasn't active I settled for Water and luckily I had 3 cost -1 magic damage summoner available

1st Position: Djinn Oshannus

• Djinn Oshannus was my main tank for this battle
• Main reason I like Djinn Oshannus here a lot is hes Void ability
• Void - Reduced damage from magic attacks

2nd Position: Ice Pixie

• I picked Ice Pixie mostly because I only had 2 mana left
• But of 2 mana she block at least 1 attack and deal 1 damage per round
• Flying - This unit has an increased chance of evading melee or ranged attacks from units who do not have the flying ability

3rd Position: Coral Wraith

• Lovely low mana cost 2 magic damage monster with Sneak
• For 4 mana you get 2 damage (with Sneak), 2 speed and 2 hp
• Sneak - Targets the last unit on the enemy Team instead of the first unit

Starting board

• Already after seeing the starting board I was confident I would win because my enemy only had 1 magic damage monsters and I had card with Void as my first monster in line
• That said he does have one card with Recharge which scared me a little (Recharge - This unit attacks every other round but does 3x damage)
• But I was still optimistic because I had much more damage

Here's how the battle went

1st Round

• After 1st Round I was already a monster down which wasn't the best look but I was still hopeful

2nd Round

• After 2nd Round my board was starting to look quite sad and honestly it was starting to scare me a little
• But that said his monsters were quite low already

3rd Round

• In the 3rd Round I finally got my first takedown
• But in this round I also saw that my enemy had Stun which could definitely end really bad for me

4th-8th Round

• It took me 4 round to kill my enemies Revealer
• And now the battle was really close

11th Round

• The battle couldn't have been any closer
• For real it was down to 1hp on both of our monsters but I had the speed

12th Round

• Finally the battle was over and I had won it
• One of the closest battle I have ever had
• Battle Replay Link

Summary

• This battle was definitely closer than I would've liked but win is a win and watching it was a long rollercoaster
• I believe the strategy to take away from this battle is the Void and -1 magic damage combo in Wands Out ruleset
• If you also would like to hop on the Splinterlands train feel free to use my Referral
