MY STRATEGY 🎯 AND LINE-UP ♟

---

For my strategy, here are my Summoner and Monsters, and I'll tell you why I chose each Summoner and Monsters.

---

MEET MY SUMMONER

---

DRAKE OF ARNAK

LORE

The Drake of Arnak is a medium-sized Dragon hybrid. He is highly intelligent and extremely rich, but cannot fly nor breathe fire. All his life he has honed his skills as a summoner, hoping to win a share of the glory that should rightfully be his as a carrier of the fire blood. The Drake's trademark is that his monsters are summoned to battle with a thin force field of blue fire, fortifying their defenses. Forms have been filed by the High Council to formally request that the Drake of Arnak hand over his secrets for the good of the united Gloridax, but he will not give up his proprietary magic without a fight. The Drake of Arnak is the Gloridax rival of Daria Dragonscale; the two despise one another.

This was the only Dragon Summoner available for me. But, hey! It gives 1 shield. So I had to use this shield for my favour.

MEET MY MONSTERS

VENARI KNIFER

LORE

Venari Knifers are specialized rogues, assassins, and thieves that make their living through shadier dealings in the Realm of Silence underneath Praetoria. They often work as part of criminal organizations or guilds, taking on contracts to put more gold in their pockets. When the Chaos Legion's agents came to Praetoria, many Venari Knifers saw them as new benefactors for their mercenary work. Using the tunnels that run beneath the surface world, the Knifers move like shadows in the night to strike at their opponents.

Like the rest of their kin, Knifers are masters of tools and technology. They've used their knowledge to perfect the Knifer Rig. A deadly weapon powered by magic and pneumatics, Knifer Rigs consist of six fully articulated blades and rods carried on the back. When not in use, they fold away neatly and unobtrusively. When employed, however, they are silent, speedy, and absolutely deadly.

---

MYCELIC MORPHOID

Mycelic Morphoids are in a constant state of growth and development. As part of Queen Mycelia's brood, Morphoids work to spread the growing blight on Praetoria. Infected themselves by the poison, they take root near streams and rivers, contaminating it with the blight. In turn, the waters feed them, and a second Morphoid sprouts from the original. Together, the two travel as one until they split and continue the process.

---

GOBLIN PSYCHIC

The Magi Tower is where Goblins go to learn how to use psychic abilities. It isn't just a gift Goblins can learn, but due to the proximity of Gobson, Goblins tend to show up more frequently. The Magi who calls the tower home, enjoys teaching the art of using one's mind to move objects and read thoughts. Goblin Psychics use their abilities to perform work in Gobson or become adventurers and practice to become a full fledged Summoner.

---

SPIRIT HOARDER

Described as almost dryad-like in its appearance by the few that have lived to tell the tale, the Spirit Hoarder is a faceless creature aside from two large, yellow eyes. Its body is a deep green with tributaries of aqua blue running through its skin, converging into jagged dorsal vertebrae along its back, and the uneven ruts of its head almost look like broken wood jutting away from the otherwise smooth and serene outline of its body. The alien appearance of this creature makes it difficult to tell where it resided on its home world, and it is likely at some point in evolution its habitat was in water, but now it is clear that it makes its home on solid ground and is completely terrestrial.

---

SCAVO HIRELING

Scavo Hirelings are good at just about everything. Not great, not poor, just good. They enjoy doing menial tasks that don't require too much thought or effort. Whether it's digging ditches, bandaging wounds, or cooking a meal, they can get it done in no time at all. They accept coin as payment but don't really need it. They'd rather be paid in information, stories, and baubles as they love learning new things. Defenders of Praetoria have hired them to build walls and dig traps around the island to prevent the Chaos Legion from getting too close.

---

REGAL PERYTON

They say there is nothing more beautiful than a Regal Peryton. They prefer to live in the mountains all across the Splinterlands, rarely seen by others. When they soar through the skies, the sunlight catches through their wings and creates rainbows underneath them. Regal Perytons are highly intelligent and consider themselves noble guardians of the natural world, using their magic to help others.

WHY I CHOSE MY MONSTERS

---

Monster Name	Image	Reason for Choosing
Venari Knifer		Venari Knifer is always my number 1 choice because of her attack and defense strategy. Her Thorns makes her defensive and her attack effect of 3, also makes her a great offensive player. The Gold Plated Venari Knifer is always a great choice. PS: The card is mine 😉
Mycelic Morphoid		As a first level Monster, it has little or nothing to offer. However, if it were a third level Monster at least, it will have the ability of Thorns. However, as it is now, it has nothing much to offer. I placed it here to fill up the space.
Goblin Psychic		I placed the Goblin Psychic at this point to continously Strengthen my first attacker. So while my Venari Knifer has is both offensive and defensive, she is always Strengthened by Goblin Psychic. Isn't that crazy? 😀😀😀
Spirit Hoarder		My wonderful Legendary card 😁😁😁 His ability of Triage is quite necessary as it strengthens and heals other Monsters. I placed this Monster at this position to continously strengthen my back line Monsters.
Scavo Hireling		Since I used a Summoner with shied ability and my first position Monster has shield ability, I placed the Scavo hireling in my team in order to repair the broken shield of my first position Monster, making it undefeated, as well as other Monsters.
Regal Peryton		The Regal Peryton is a perfect Monster at the last position as it can evade attacks from the opponent's Sneak Monster. However, it also has good stats to attack from that angle.
