This is a ranked Diamond match. The game had the following rule sets: Lost Legendaries, Little League, and Noxious Fumes. The game had a 28 mana cap and only Water and Dragon were inactive. I picked Thaddius Brood, putting Xenith Monk in the front and Shadow Snitch in the Reach position. I followed them up with Venari Bonesmith and Revealer. I finished the team with Moxian Rebel and Riftwing. They used the same summoner and the same first 2 units. Next, they placed Uraeus and Soul Strangler. They finished with Revealer and Venari Bonesmith. Very similar teams with only 2 different monsters and some different positions.

Both Monks took enough damage to put them dead to the Poison. My Rebel also died to it. Those deaths weren't bad for me since they allowed Riftwing to gain HP. In round 2, my Shadow attacked before theirs, taking it out. That was a very important "coin flip". Their Strangler missed the attack, which meant my Snitch survived again and I also managed to finish Uraeus. After the Poison, everything except for both Revealers and Riftwing died. Since I had one extra unit to deal damage, the game ended in my favor. Despite some good luck, the deciding factor was Riftwing. However, I think I should have placed the Rebel in the last spot, to protect Riftwing from Sneak attacks.
