Hi guys! For this blog, let's talk about a monster from the Untamed edition, SNIPING NARWHAL. I'm going to share a battle using this monster.

THE LORE

---

While a regular Narwhal can sink a ship with a single thrust from its giant horn, a Sniping Narwhal can actually release the horn, launching it up to a mile underwater with precision. The cartilage material of the horn reforms in about 24 hours and is ready to be loosed again. Sniping Narwahls are also considerably larger and more territorial than the kelp garden variety Narwhal with which we are all familiar.

The battle requires 26 mana and the active elements are Fire, Water, and Earth units.

ODD ONES OUT
Only Monsters with odd Mana costs may be used in battles. There are no special tricks for this ruleset, but having an idea of the mana points of a few monsters helps in predicting what your opponent can and cannot use.

STAMPEDE
The Trample ability can trigger multiple times per attack if the trampled Monster is killed. Higher HP and speed are the key to this ruleset. Dispel helps to remove Trample.

TAKING SIDES

THE BATTLE

BATTLE REVIEW

Since one of the battle rules is the Stampede, I used a summoner that adds speed to its team members because Higher HP and speed are the keys to this ruleset. I used Serpent of Eld and Flying squid to be positioned in front because of their high hp and melee attack. I also used a tank healer merdaali guardian to help the tank regain its health each round. I put Sniping Narwhal as my last(fourth) position because it has the snipe ability. Because of this ability, Sniping Narwhal targets enemy Monsters with Ranged, Magic, or no attack that are not in the first position. It has also the Stun ability. When a Monster with Stun hits a target, it has a chance to stun the target causing it to skip its next turn. When the first two monsters were killed by the opponent, merdaali guardian was a great help to Sniping Narwhal. Luckily, the two remaining monsters from the enemy can only attack the first position card from their opponent, Sniping Narwhal had the chance to attack and kill the remaining enemy.

Thanks for reading!
