Mastering the Arena in Unprotected Ruleset.

Imagine a land where monsters roam freely, their usual defenses stripped away, leaving them vulnerable to the whims of fate. In this enchanted realm, a new ruleset has emerged, named 'Unprotected,' where armor becomes a distant memory, and creatures must face their foes bare and brave.

This is about my winning match. Battling in unprotected ruleset in a brawl battle, I got a good result of winning against the enemy team.

I'll be joining a battle challenge hosted by @splinterlands with this post and I'm linking the challenge link so that other peoples may know about it.
Battle Mage Secrets Weekly Challenge!

This time I got a battle with 27 mana and I went for it using Scarred Llama Mage as the earth summoner.

THIS IS THE BATTLE LINK.

Here you can see both team where I've found a enemy team with four monsters against my five monsters.

Battle Ruleset:

	The battle ruleset has 27 mana cap.
	Close Range: Ranged attacks maybe used in the first position in battles.
	Unprotected: Monsters do not have any armor and do not get armor from abilities of summoner buffs.
	Fire & Regret: All monsters have the return fire ability.

My chosen cards.
I chose earth splinter with four earth monsters and one neutral monster where I used Scarred Llama Mage as the summoner.

Scarred Llama Mage	Quora Towershead	Queen Mycelia	Regal Peryton	Khmer Princess	Furious Chicken

Enemy's chosen cards.
The enemy also chose earth splinter with four earth monsters using Lobb Lowland as the earth summoner.

Lobb Lowland	Failed Summoner	Katrelba Gobson	Fungus Flinger	Quora Towershead

The Battle

Scarred Llama Mage offered +2 health and last stand ability to all friendly monsters and this summoner cleans all debuffs from the friendly monster in the first position each round. Then Lobb Lowland, the enemy summoner removed one speed from three friendly monsters although it was meant to work on all friendly monsters but the unaffected already had the lowest speed. The enemy summoner allowed the enemy team to use one extra gladiator card so they chose two gladiator cards in this battle.

Then Queen Mycelia was about to provide all friendly monsters two armors each but the unprotected ruleset worked in there and the additional armors didn't reach the monsters.

Friendly teams Regal Peryton started attacking first where Failed Summoner of the enemy team lost only one health and it returned the favor by damaging one health of the friendly attacker using magic reflect ability and this is the only damage Failed Summoner can do.

Quora Towershead of the enemy team attacked Quora Towershead of the friendly team where the friendly monster lost two health and this friendly monster then increased her lost health using heal ability and then killed Failed Summoner of the enemy team using the double damage (magic+melee) although the friendly monster lost one health as well to the magic reflect damage.

The enemy team did a huge mistake using Quora Towershead at the last position as the melee damage is a waste in this way although the enemy team had another strategy for this which I'm gonna talk about soon.

The friendly Quora Towershead got +1 to all stats using bloodlast ability after the last kill and there Katrelba Gobson reached the first position and damaged two health of the friendly Quora Towershead.

Then Queen Mycelia attacked Katrelba Gobson where the enemy monster lost one health. Then Khmer Princess damaged one health of Katrelba Gobson and Fungus Flinger damaged one health of the friendly Quora Towershead where the friendly monster returned the favor by damaging one health of the enemy attacker using return fire ability which came from fire & regret ruleset and the current round came to an ending.

There was a new round where Regal Peryton killed the enemy Katrelba Gobson and the Fungus Flinger reached the first position. Then after the enemy Quora Towershead damaged two health of the friendly Quora Towershead, then the friendly one first increased four of her health and then killed the enemy Fungus Flinger and got +1 to all stats again using bloodlast ability.

The enemy team did a huge mistake using Quora Towershead at the last position as the melee damage is a waste in this way although the enemy team had another strategy for this which I'm gonna talk about soon.

Do you remember this point? Now we can talk about that. So, after Fungus Flinger died, the adjacent and last enemy monster Quora Towershead got +1 to all stats for the martyr ability of Fungus Flinger and I bet the enemy team chose the lineup strategy this way just for that.

The friendly Quora Towershead killed the last enemy monster using the magic damage only and after the last enemy monster reached the first position, the friendly Quora Towershead damaged four health of the enemy monster using the melee damage.

Queen Mycelia and Khmer Princess joined the force and damaged two health of the enemy monster. And there was a new round where first Regal Peryton damaged one health of the enemy monster. Then the enemy monster increased four of her health using heal ability and damaged total six health of the friendly Quora Towershead.

The friendly Quora Towershead then damaged total 4+4=8 health of the enemy monster after healing herself with five health and then Queen Mycelia damaged the last health of the enemy monster and the friendly team won the battle keeping all monsters alive.

NEXT TIME.

The next post about splinterlands will be coming soon.
