This battle is one of my previous ones before Rebellion. While this build is not usable in Modern Format due to the Untamed monsters I used, this can still be strong in Wild Format.

It's also a very cheap build despite how strong the cards are.

The cheapest one I can find on Mother Khala is one for $2.25. This is a level 2 card that you can use for max level Bronze or low level Silver.

For the rental, I found two good choices for Mother Khala. There's one for 1.51 DEC per day for a level 3 and a 4.55 DEC per day for a level 5. These are low enough to be kept in your arsenal if you need the extra health from her abilities.

Cave Slug is pretty cheap at early levels. You can get a level 3 for $0.95. The higher levels though is a bit more expensive. You can get a level 6 for $6.30.

Mother Khala is a rare summoner . from Untamed Series.

Level 4 rare summoners allow the use of:
Level 2 Legendary monsters;
Level 3 Epic monsters;
Level 4 Rare monsters;
Level 5 Common monsters.

Mother Khala is a good summoner to add defense on your team. She is also low mana cost and can be used in Silenced Summoners rule of combat.


Abilities


+1 Max Health. Increase the team's max health by 1.

This can be good if you uses Tank Heal or any restoration abilities but is also good enough on its own. Sometimes, that 1 health is the difference between you winning and your opponents losing.

Cave Slug was my Life Splinter's secondary tank. He has decent health and a melee monster so he can still attack if ever he goes to the front.


Abilities



Opportunity.png

At level 1, Opportunty is unlocked. Opportunity prioritizes the attack on the opponent with the least healh.

Most of the support monsters, those with abilities like Tank Heal ad Protect abilities have low health. Opportunity is a good ability to dispose them quick.



Scavenger.png

At level 6, Scavenger is unlocked. Scavenger increases this monster's max health every time a monster on te board dies.

Since I use Cave Slug as a secondary tank, this ability is good for when Cave Slug goes to first position. Increased max health means an increase in Tank Heal amount as well.



Slow.png

At level 10, Slow is unlocked. Slow decreases the opponent's speed by 1 with a minimum of 1 as long as this monster is still alive.

While this ability is not as strong, this help Cave Slug's low speed. Low speed means he may miss a lot of attacks. Slower opponents increases the chance of Cave Slug's hits.

Mother Khala: Good Summoner for Uriel the Purifier since he lacks 1 health for the extra Heal amount.

  1. Uriel the Purifier: Good tank with Heal and high damage.
  2. Corsair Bosun: High mana cost monster with Reach ability. He also has Reflection Shield to protect the team against possible Blast damage.
  3. Adelade Brightwing: Her Repair and Resurrect abilities are a good addition to the team.
  4. Venari Crystalsmith: Her Tank Heal is very useful in every situation. It makes sure that Uriel the Purifier will survive no matter what.
  5. Cave Slug: I placed him at the last position to protect my team against possible Sneaks. If I were not using Corsair Bosun, he is usually placed in the second position.

Yes. My Cave Slug was able to quickly eliminate Celestial Harpy in the first two rounds. This saved my Venari Crystalsmith that allows my Uriel the Purifier to live along with his Heal ability and Adelade Brightwing's Resurrect ability.

None. The build is good enough on its own. Aim True helped allow my monsters to not miss with their big attacks.

However, like I said in the beginning, since this has Untamed cards, so it is not usable in Modern Ranked anymore.

If you want to use it in Modern Ranked, you can use Ulondin Regulator in exchange for Cave Slug. He has Opportunity ability as well, in addition to a True Strike ability, which mimics the Aim True rule of combat.

For the summoner, since Mother Khala is not really a core component of the build, you can just use whoever you want. You can probably use Prunda Undervesch's dual summoning mechanic to bring Deeplurker in your Life Splinter build in order to increase your Opportunity monsters.

This would give you a better chance of eliminating the opponent's supports as early as possible.

Yes. Cave Slug is one of my favorite Life Splinter card. He is even included in my Sneak builds with Lorna Shine, another Untamed summoner.

Aim True rule of combat solves the Cave Slug's problem of low speed. He sometimes misses in crucial situations which can make you infuriated a few times when it happens..
