AttackMelee
AbilitiesSneak & double strike / Cripple (Level 5) / Affliction (Level Max)

Card level & stats

Sliver max | LV4 - +1 Damage & +1 Speed
Gold max | LV6 - Gain Cripple & +1 Health
Diamond and above | LV MAX - Gains Affliction & +1 Speed

Cost per level (used prices at time of writing)

Seems to cost at least 0.14 per copy, Which is one of the more expensive rewards cards that is in print right now but its a very good card to have so its still worth the price.

LeagueMax Level - Copies neededCost
Bronze maxLV2 - 5 copies0.7 usd.
Sliver maxLV4 - 25 copies3.5 usd.
Gold maxLV6 - 60 copies8.4 usd.
Diamond and aboveLV MAX - 115 copies16.1 usd.

The damage buff is at level 4 which can be used in sliver and up, the damage buff is very good since it basically doubles the damage its deals and allows it to at least do damage to shield units since 1 attack is negated, however at gold league and above you can consider getting a level 5 to gain cripple which is a strong ability to have.

gold foil copies start at level 2 but to get the damage buff you would need 4 copies and to get cripple you would need 7 which is quite expensive as a single copy cost at least 3 usd which is basically a level 4 copy of the normal foil, maybe get the regular foil version before slowly building the gold foil version.

Battle rules



SymbolRule Effect
All Monsters have the Divine Shield ability.
Melee and Ranged attacks always hit their target.


Total Mana : 99
Usable elements : Water, Earth, Death and Dragon

Holy protection ruleset time to spam double strike and blast units to quickly do damage to the opponents' team along with true aim which makes range and melee attacks not miss so dodging is worthless here and the mana is at the max cap allowing for all sorts of card to be used,


Team Composition

CardRoleReason
SummonerQuix the devious, having a minus 1 to speed is always nice to have unless you are in the reverse speed ruleset plus the -1 to range damage is always good less damage equal higher chance to win
RedemptionExploding rat has only one purpose in this lineup to wipe away the holy protection buff with its death with redemption which deals 1 damage to all enemy units on its death its great in removing the buff since it does not miss
Immunity, piecing, retaliateForgotten one at level 5 is very strong with both piecing and retaliate its extremely useful against melee units since its attack is also very high plus with piecing damage above the armor will still land which is devastating to low hp monster that rely on the armor to save its first hit
Reach,Shield, Double StrikeCarnage titan at level 3 it has shield which is good against melee and range enemies, although its placed in the third slot and is unable to attack it does not matter since the exploding rat will not last long so it would move to attacking range soon
Range damage, Stun, Close CombatLava launcher withs its stun ability its a great unit to use in battle since it grants a 50% chance to skip the target's turn which can sometimes win battles by endlessly stunning the target
Sneak, Double strike, Cripple, Star of the challengeDhampir Infiltrator with its double strike and cripple paired with sneak makes it a very strong unit to field in battles, if the unit has holy protection on hit by this unit they would lose 1 max hp causing their hp to drop as well or if their was armor this would happen as well
Sneak shield, Flying , Blast, BlindChaos Dragon has blast to remove holy protection, The other ability due to the ruleset are useless since melee and range attacks won't miss.

Now on to the Battle

Round 1

They went with Quix the devious with earth units instead of fire like me, they did use quite a few units that can clear the holy protection buff as well and do have a taunt tank which may change the battle a bit.

As planed the exploding rat did its job and clear all the holy protection buffs off the opponent's team which allowed my units to do damage and the forgotten one retaliate did trigger and it did quite a bit of damage onto the opponent's team reducing sub tank's hp and killing their main tank.

this round I did lose 2 units but its still within acceptable ranges since the exploding rat was meant to die in this round anyway.

Round 2

The carnage titan's shield is showings its worth by negating some of the melee damage its receiving allowing it to still have some armor but the opponent's team is mainly magic damage that bypasses armor which is quite bad for the carnage titan as shield does not decrease magic damage.

At the end of this round the match numbers have been equalized making an even 4v4 but this is pretty good since the amount of hp left on the opponent's team is quite low

Round 3 to the End

Carnage titan and Dhampir Infiltrator double strike show their power in these round by quickly finishing the battle taking out the remaining units in a quick 2 rounds.

Strategy Talk

The strategy was revolved around the exploding rat taking out all the holy protection buffs with its redemption ability which make the remaining battle much easier since it allow my units to do damage earlier which increases the chance of victory.

Dhampir Infiltrator get it at level 4 for the damage buff, get a since copy if you are below sliver since its still quite a good card to use even without the damage buff, level 5 is very good but requires the gold league for that cripple ability. its one of the better rewards cards available right now and its price is pretty decent since its quite a strong card.

Thanks for the battle challenge curation team
