Here's the ruleset

Lineup:

Summoner: Bortus

Bortus debuffs all of my opponent's magic attacks. With the Even Stevens ruleset my favorite splinters to use are generally life and earth. I happened to be working on a water splinter daily quest, so I went with water. If you've read my previous content then you may know that the water splinter is my second favorite behind dragons. I've used Kelya in several of my weekly battle challenges, but I probably use Bortus more often in my daily play. Bortus' debuff works beautifully here to negate my opponent's magic buff.

Tank: Sea Monster

The Sea Monster lacks the Shield and Void abilities that I so highly covet in a tank, but with 8 life it can still take a hit. With the Self Heal ability it can take a few extra. The 4 melee attack are also strong when it can connect.

1st position: Djinn Oshannus

That beard is amazing.
Djinn Oshannus does come with void and a huge starting life total. Oshannus is a fantastic secondary tank and makes a great primary tank too. With an expected magic attack of 2 or less my opponent's monsters will do 0 damage to the Bortus/Oshannus combo. That completely negates the attacks from Queen Mycelia and largely negates the attacks from Magi of Chaos and Goblin Psychic. The speed on Oshannus is great for my opponent's melee and ranged attacks.
I placed Sea Monster in front of Oshannus because Oshannus can attack from the back line.

2nd position: Deeplurker

Deeplurker's opportunity ability is great for placing attacks in such a way that I can most quickly reduce the number of attacks that my opponent is able to send my way. The stats all over Deeplurker are as fantastic as you already know.

3rd position: Magi of Chaos

2 magic damage under my opponent's armor.

4th position: Supply Runner

Supply Runner really gets good when it speeds up my team with the Quickness ability at higher levels. In this battle the Supply Runner serves to provide a health mix of leafy greens. Wait that was a typo. The Supply Runner serves to provide a healthy mix of attack types for my team.

5th position: Wave Brood

Color your own Wave Brood. This is from a sketch that I posted to my alt account a couple of months back.

The Wave Brood doesn't hit very heard but the taunt ability keeps the heat off the rest of my team long enough for them to put in work.

Did my strategy work?

Yes, and for a variety of reasons. The biggest reason is probably the matching of bortus against Obsidian.
My opponent made some great choices for their team. I like that they paired Hunter Jarx and Mantoid together on the back line to synergize on the same back line targets. I was very fortunate to have a couple of misses against Djinn Oshannus.

Do I like Supply Runner?

Yes, Supply runner will be among the first monsters for me to level up when I get to the leveling up portion of my deck improvements.

What will I try differently next time?

I'll probably go with one of my more traditional Even Stevens lineups from the Earth or Life splinters. I'll probably do something fairly similar to what my opponent did actually.

Thanks for reading and thanks for all the upvotes, reblogs, comments and follows. I'll see you in the game.

Whoever is directly controlling the V2K told me to kill myself.
They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.


They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?
