As Usual, I'm going to share the top 5 strategies in the tournament where I have successfully become a Champion or at least the top 3 in the tournament. So in this week I have won several tournaments such as Darastrix Bronze Gold Foil Wild Tournament, Crypto @crypto-zard and @beccss tournament, and YGG SPL Weekend Tournament. In this article I'd like to share about the tips and tricks I used to win YGG Tournament. It was a single elimination tournament where you have to win at least 2 matches in default round to get through to the next round and 3 matches to be a winner.

Alright, The top 5 strategies that we are going to discuss in depth are :

  1. The Importance of Stun ability in Heavy Hitters ruleset
  2. Earth splinter is "mostly" become the good choice for reverse speed ruleset
  3. Always equip Thorn with amplify ability
  4. Use Trample ability in Stampede ruleset to kill all enemies at one move
  5. Fill All six spots in equalizer ruleset

First of all, let me share the result of the first until final round of the tournament and... at the end of article, there will be a giveaway #50 to grab. Let's get started !

- TOURNAMENT RESULT -

Round #1, against @liixnee (Qualifier, Best of 1) :

BATTLE LINK

My first match of the tournament was against liixnee, a player from The Wizards guild. The ruleset was Melee Mayhem so I put demented Shark to give additional 1 melee damage to all of my melee monsters.


Round #2 of 6, against @ranran1073 (Best of 3) :

BATTLE LINK (1st match)

BATTLE LINK (2nd match)

The second battle was against ranran1073, the ruleset in the first match is super sneak so I put Djinn Chwala and amplifier in the backline. The second match ruleset is stampede, so I put Diemonshark since he has trample ability.

Round #3 of 6, against @nitroage (Best of 3) :

BATTLE LINK (1st match)

BATTLE LINK (2nd match)

The third opponent is nitroage, the ruleset in the first round was broken arrow and both of us anticipated magic attack each other. At the end, Tarsa with all melee monsters won the match. The second ruleset is counterspell so nitroage used Ilthain to anticipate ranged attack but unfortunately I am using melee army again and won the second match.

Round #4 of 6, against @jayvee72 (Best of 3) :

BATTLE LINK (3rd match)

My next opponent is jayvee72. At the first match, my obsidian team was countered perfectly by Thaddius Brood which give me an L. I won the second match after my obdisian team break the defence made by mycelic Infantry. At the third match Axemaster has lots of contribution to the win with his double strike.

Semifinal Round, against @maxmaka (Best of 3) :

BATTLE LINK (3rd match)

My next opponent in Semi-final Round is Maxmaka, One of my friends in YGG guild. I won the first match since the magic team could destroy Maxmaka defence (Onyx S and Blinding reflector). He won the second match after lots of my attack was miss. I won the third one as Axemaster really destroyed Maxmaka team.

Final Round, against @odoacer (Best of 5) :

BATTLE LINK (4th match)

At the final round, I met Odoacer. The final score was 1-3 for Silvia win. The only L I took when the ruleset was heavy Hitters. Odoacer used Water Caller who has stun ability. It makes his Diemonshark can double his attack and killed all my team.

- THE IMPORTANT OF STUN ABILITY IN HEAVY HITTERS RULESET -

RulesetManaElement
Heavy Hitters, Stampede24Fire, Earth, Water, Life, Death

27.PNG

BATTLE LINK

When we see the ruleset of the match is Stampede and Heavy Hitters, The best cards to be used is Diemonshark - Water Caller. Water Caller has 50% chance to stun the target and when it does activated, the target is very fragile. Once the target is being attacked by monster who has Trample ability like Diemonshark, the damage would be doubled and there's a high chance for the Diemonshark to attack the monster next to the target. In the above example, The Odoacer's Water Caller has successfully activated stun to my Diemonshark and he got double attack many times. The same thing happened to my Tide Biter.

- EARTH SPLINTER IS "MOSTLY" BECOME THE GOOD CHOICE FOR REVERSE SPEED RULESET -

RulesetManaElement
Tis but Scratches, Reverse Speed48Fire, Earth, Water, Dragon

28.PNG

In Reverse Speed ruleset, monsters who have lower speed will attack first so of course the one who have 1 speed will attack first. Earth splinter is recommended to be used in reverse speed ruleset because many of them have very low speed even at maximum level, let say Mycelic Infantry (my tank in above match) who have only 1 speed. Some other example are Goblin Psychic (1 speed) and Magi of Chaos (2 Speed). The advantage of going first is that we can hit the enemy first and heal the tank monsters to help him from dying.

- ALWAYS EQUIP THORN WITH AMPLIFY ABILITY -

RulesetManaElement
Super Sneak, Lost Legendaries25Life, Dragon

29.PNG

BATTLE LINK

When the Super sneak appears, most of players (but not all of them) will set melee monsters since they can attack from any position and in order to counter that, We need to put Thorn ability monster to give 2 damage whenever they attack. the thorn damage will be 3 if we put amplify monster so it's very important to have amplify ability in our team. Another ability which is also important is demoralize since it can reduce all of the melee damage into just 1 only. The most used demoralize monster is Disintegrator. He can attack from backline also since the ruleset is super sneak.

- USE TRAMPLE ABILITY IN STAMPEDE RULESET TO KILL ALL ENEMIES AT ONE MOVE -

RulesetManaElement
Stampede20Water, Earth, Life, Death, Dragon

30.PNG

BATTLE LINK

This battle is one of the most fun battle I ever had. If you clicked on the battle link and see the match. You can see that in round 2, Diemonshark killed Cursed Windeku and due to thorn and enrage ability, his attack became 5. It will make him way stronger and able to kill all the rest of monsters in one move (Silent Sha-Vi, Weirding Warrior and Soul Strangler). So I highly recommend to use trample ability in stampede ruleset because the trample will be very useful. I put Merdaali Guardian in the battle to keep Diemonshark alive after getting hit by the opponent monster.

kl.png

- FIIL ALL SIX SPOT IN EQUALIZER RULESET -

RulesetManaElement
Stampede20Water, Earth, Life, Death, Dragon

BATTLE LINK

One thing which is very important to remember in equalizer ruleset is to fill all the six spots and never let it empty because 1 spot can be a great defence since all monsters in the battlefield has the same amount of HP at the start of the battle. I did one mistake to leave 1 spot empty and we can see the difference of power in above match. Jayvee was smart enough to put Carrion Shade at the last position to deal with the sneak monster (if I put it) since the monster has flying ability to evade the sneak attack. He was also making good decision to put shadowy presence in the second position as it will be great second tank monster.

Reverse Speed still kills me, because most of my go-to teams are optimized for being fast. So I'm still using starter cards for reverse speed πŸ˜‚

Thank you for the giveaway! Please count me in (IGN @willendorfia ) and have some !PIZZA as well!
