From the available Splinters in the match, I believed my best bet without Epic/Legendary monsters would be within the Death category, however I chose the Dragon Summoner, Byzantine Kitty, for the Tank-Heal and (+2 Speed) abilities to let my monsters attack quickly and to increase longevity.

Round 1 Complete

Although my opponent is sporting an under-leveled Summoner for the Diamond Ranked League, their team is strategically chosen and placed, providing a valiant effort towards victory nonetheless.

Both the Cursed Windeku and the Disintegrator are melee monsters placed in more rear positions inhibiting them from attacking until they reach the front, however their utility is recognized regardless. Only 3 Splinters available made a Sneak-Attack play likely, and so the Cursed Windeku with Thorns placed in the rear of their line-up was a great counter, ensuring my Sneakers destroy themselves over time.

Round 2 Complete

By the end of Round 2 both teams have lost just 2 monster each, but it looks like the scale is beginning to tip. Even now they do not appear to have enough damage to take out the Arkemis Bear supported by the Byzantine Kitty's heal every round. Victory seems inevitable.

Round 3 Complete

Each team has lost another monster leaving each with 4 remaining, but it only takes one more round for the dominating Bear-Kitty team to deliver the final blow leaving us with victory
Looking back, I should have paid more attention to the limiting effects of the Splinters available on the opponents choices. I could likely have done a better job at predicting my opponent and counter-playing with that in mind.

Interesting to see Broken Arrows ruleset and Aim True ruleset come up together in a battle, while we understand Aim True would mostly benefit ranged cards.
