Overview

The new Weekly ruleset Challenge is an amazing twist that I am enjoying so far and I hope there will be twists like that in the future to keep this Challenge's fresh. 😁

This week the ruleset is the Noxious Fumes, which means that all units will be Poisoned at the start of the game.

• Units with Immunity are not poisoned.
• This is a one-time application - units that are cleansed, resurrected or rebirthed will not be re-applied with poison.
• Enrage is triggered by Poison application.

The upcoming Battle ruleset

The mana cap for my next battle was 36, which means that is more than enough to bring whatever I want, because the maximum mana that I can spend is only 28 thanks to the Little League ruleset.

Choosing the right monsters for this battle will be very difficult, because most of the monsters, which costs 4 or less mana are typically has a very low health, so the Poison will kill them quickly. Using monsters with the Scavange, Life Leech, Immunity or Cleanse will be crucial as they might give you the advantage to survive longer than your opponent monsters. 😊

The Explosive Weaponry is also makes this battle shorter, because all of the monsters will do additional damage to the adjacent monsters next to their target. 😉

My lineup

	The Obsidian is a powerful summoner from the Earth Splinter, which increases the magic damage of her monsters by one. The Earth Splinter has a lot of good magic attack monsters, but if the enemy knows that you bring this one than it is very easy to counter her. 😆
The Hill Giant cost only 3 mana and he is one of the best tank for a Little League ruleset, because he has 8 health in this battle and on top of that he is able to Stun his opponent tank if he is able to trigger it, because it has a 50% chance to do that. 😁
	The Fungus Flinger is one of the new reward card and he has a unique ability, which is the Martyr. This ability will increase the stat of his neighbours when he dies. This might be enough to outsurvive my opponent monsters. 😜
The Queen Mycelia has got three amazing ability to support her team. The first is Protect, which will give 2 armor to all of her friendly monsters. The second is Amplify, which will reflect an extra damage from fellow reflecting monsters. The third is the Triage, which will heal one of the friendly monster in her backline. 😊
	The Madcap Magus is another new reward card and even thought he is very slow he has two amazing ability, which comes very handy for this battle. The first is Scattershot, which will make this monster to attacki a random enemy and because he has Blast as well this might give us a huge advantage with a lucky shot. THe other ability is Life Leech, which will increase his own health with all the damage he makes, so the Poison will not kill him so quick. 😇
The Wood Nymph is a low budget healer, so I am able to use her in the Little League ruleset and she is a very good addition in any low level battles. Her main ability is Tank Heal, which is perfect to support the tank in the first position and her Strengthen ability would mean a lot of difference in the Noxious Fumes ruleset, because it will give one extra health to her friendly monsters. 😊
	The Djinn Biljka is a damage dealer and thanks to his Camouflage ability he is completely untargetable be the enemy monsters only the indirect damage can hit him from Blast. He has an important ability, which is the Weaken and that is reduces the health of all the enemy monsters. 😉

The Battle

The Little League battles is always risky and with conditions like Poison and Blast is even more dangerous, which might end up the battle quickly. My opponent brought a solid team against me and my biggest concern was his Doctor Blight at the back of his team, because he has the Scavanger ability, so with all the deaths on either side of us he will increase his health by one, which might be enough to survive longer than my monsters. 😒

My monsters are generaly slower than my opponent monsters, so they attacked first and they killed my Fungus Flinger with their Blast damage. This was not a catastrophe, because he was meant to die to increase the stats on my Hill Giant and Queen Mycelia.

By the end of the first round my team managed to kill his Antoid Platoon (who also had the Scavenger ability, but luckily died early) and damage down his Xewenith Monk and Spark Pixie with a lucky shot from my Madcap Magus to only one health, so the **Poison finished them off at the end of the round. 😉

Thanks to the Strenthen ability on my Wood Nymph two of my monsters survived the first round with only one health left.

In the second round we managed to kill all of his monsters survived the first round and only his Doctor Blight left on the table with three health only, which didn't prooved to be enough against the Posion and my magic attack damage dealers. 😁

Battle Result

Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?

My strategy was to bring a lot of monster with magic damage and take advantage of the +1 buff from the Obsidian to deal as much damage as possible in the sortest amount of time, because I knew that this battle won't last long.

The plan worked as a charm, because my opponent could not survive that amount of direct and indirect damage. 😇
