BATTLE MAGE SECRETS : EQUAL OPPORTUNITY RULESET

Equal Opportunity rulest is a two-edged blade. It will bestow Opportunity into all melee cards, which means all back-row melee cards will be able to strike into back-row opponent based on their lowest health. But this ability could turn into a trap; because Opportunity will strike the lowest health based on their order from the front-row. Which means if opponent predict your move, they might decided to deploy low-health high-armor before any back-row cards as a bait. Opportunity also has its own weakness, as it has the lowest priority compared to other Target Altering abilities (below Snipe). So its a fact that they easily bypassed by using melee cards with Sneak ability, or ranged or magic cards with Scattershot or Snipe ability. Without further ado, lets continue with our analysis!

This isn't a good competitive battle, because my opponent under a handicap of 12 mana shorts. And even by looking into the superior magic damage buff from my formation, there's no way for my opponent to catch up against the damage barrage. I decided to use magic cards and utilized the Opportunity to sweep away directly into smaller cards. I keep 2 ranged cards as a back-up if Void might be deployed. Quora will spearhead the front-row, while keeping her health floating using Heal and Tank Heal.

I think my opponent have chosen cards wisely by taking m Void Dragon to muffle the magic damage and Quix The Devious to muffle the ranged damage. But other than that, they don't have enough damage output to breach my superior Tanker which is Quora Towershead.

The battle running fast with my opponent gained all the earlier act order. Their combined forces (and mostly from Sand Worm) managed to bring down Mycelic Slipspawn within a single round. But this advantage quickly overturned as my Mycelia Queen scored a kill on Uraeus, then Goblin Pscyhic collect its kill on Venari Spellsmith, and finally Vampiric and Hunter Jarx collect its bounty on Spirit Hoarder.

With the 2nd round started 3 against 5, my formation quickly gained the upper-hand. Quora cast its spell excellently but keep missing on its melee attack. Luckily there's Goblin Psychich and Vampiric Blossom which backup her to finish Void Dragon for good.

Once we enter the 3rd round, the fate is sealed for my opponent as there's no chances for Sand Worm to single handed deal with Quora, not even against the 4 other cards.

This battle isn't as epic as we thought. We just got the first-hand experience of how magic cards with Opportunity was a killer weapon against low health cards by bypassing any armor aspect. The only remarkable thing about my opponent is how the lower health cards become the main target and delay damage from reaching Sand Worm as main damage dealer. If only the formation utilize its mana cap optimally, there might be better chances with stronger damage dealing cards.
