~Lore of The Eternan Brune~

Before we start taking about the battle, let's talk about the monster first. For those who loves a story, i bring you the lore of the Eternan Brune.

Eternan Brune is the warlord leader of the Drybone Anarchists, a tribalistic faction that controls the Drybone Badlands in the Wild Northeast of Praetoria. His people see him as some kind of god and will follow his every word with blind obedience.

Eternan Brune and his anarchists are the scourge of the Drybone Badlands, raiding trading caravans and nearby settlements. Eternan rarely joined in these raids, preferring instead to rule from his wasteland citadel while seated upon his throne of bones and battle-won trophies. However, when the Chaos Legion began encroaching upon his territory, the llamataur came forth to join the raids, concerned that he would lose control of his territory to these invaders.

Now Eternan stands at the front of his ravaging tribes, intent on leading them in battle in the defense of his lands and his empire of anarchy. He uses fire magic to imbue strength into the hearts of his people and wields a long flaming whip made from the vertebrae of those that challenged him for leadership of the Drybone Anarchists. It and his spiked armor act as a suitable deterrent to those who may wish to confront him for the position.

General Information About Eternan Bruno

Now that we knew about the lore of this Summoners, let's have a look at his stats and ability. The information about this summoner's stats and ability is shown below

This Rare Soulbound Fire Summoners is a brand new summoners that having ability to bring gladius cards into a non brawl matches. Beside that new ability, eternan brune also having -2 armor debuff for all enemies, which makes him a great support for physical monsters. His unique and powerfull ability is cause him to cost so high maca. 6 Mana cost is high enough to makes it hard for play on little mana cap. But on medium high mana cap, i think he is very strong. His stats is no different with any others rare summoners. Lv 2 for max bronze league cap, lv 4 for max silver league cap, lv 6 for max gold league cap, and lv 8 for maxed out cards. The complete details are shown on picture above.

My Lineup's Explanation :

Rules set:

image.png

Before we discuss about the formation, here is the rules for this match
Equal Opportunity : All monster have the Opportunity ability. Melee attack from anywere!
21 mana cap: Medium low mana cap, not really suitable with eternan bruno, but let's just try it !
Splinter available : All splinters are available.

PositionCardAbilityStrategy
Summonersimage.png-2 Armor, Bring Gladius CardsI want to use Daria but don't have the summoner at the moment, but this bloom Summoner is pretty usefull to go against any physical monster because his fly buff would giving chance for enemies to miss their attack.
Tankerimage.png-1 mana cost, just for a decoy on this opportunity ruleset where the main hitter could hit from anywhere. More monster means more chance for the main hitter
2nd Monsterimage.pngShatterAnother 1 mana monster, but this monster are better with 1 melee attack and a shatter to destroy any armor that he hit
3rd Monsterimage.pngReach, BloodlustMy main hitter on this match, the gladius card that i had and i choose for this match. Solid health point, got some armor (which is important to get more armor when bloodlust triggered), high damage, and of course the bloodlust !
4th Monsterimage.pngSnipe2 range attack and 4 hp is pretty good for a 3 mana cost monster. Put him on 4th to give him time for attacking since he is range monster.

I would also talk a little about my enemies lane up, but won't too detailed as my lane up, just a my point of view in general about his lane up.

Let's see my enemy's line up. Decoy on the front, just like mine, followed by a 1 mana cost monster as well just like mine again, on 3rd there is a riftwing which i think is not really good for this ruleset, because as he got the scavenger, he might having too high hp and ended up as the last monster to target while you want him to be a decoy. On 4th there is the cursed windeku as his main hitter that having thorn ability which is very usefull on this ruleset where melee monster are favourite. Last is the magi necrosi with the camouflage to be the last target on the match and having the magic attack as surprise because not expected on this match. Overall, it's still okay bot is still bot typical 😅

If you want to watch the battle, please click the link of battle replay i've mentioned above.

The battle scene are also shown on gif below:

On 1st round, all buff and debuff are applied, my enemies got no armor so none is stripped, while my monsters are having one less health point. My enemies having 5 monster on his squad while mine is just 4. On this round, my chaos agent, enemies chicken, and his 1 mana monster is eliminated. I got my Chimney Wallstop got his bloodlust triggered. It's 3 vs 3 situation now.

On 2nd round, my range monster is eliminated as well my radiated scorch. My chimney able to land attack to the riftwing but failed to eliminate this monster because he got 8 health already. It's 1 vs 3 situation for me now !

ezgif.com-video-to-gif (2).gif

On 3rd round, My Chimney are able to eliminate the riftwing to trigger his bloodlust for the 2nd times. On 4th round, none is eliminate, and on 5th round, my chimney got his 3rd bloodlust after eliminate the windeku. 6th round surely be mine after chimney having 8 damage and 5 speed to get the first turn and eliminate the magi necrosi. Hail bloodlust !

Discuss About Eternan Bruno :


What I Like About Eternan Bruno:

As i've mentioned above, i really love his ability to bring the gladius cards that having powerfull stats and ability compared to normal monster. Bloodlust is surely the best part of the gladius cards which are only few regular monster got this ability. And -2 armor is a great addition to help physical monster could land attack directly to opponent's health rather than wasting time to break their armor.

What I Don't Like About Eternan Bruno:
His 6 mana cost is surely his main problem, rely only on this summoners will cost you low mana cap ruleset, because with tight mana, you can get better line up with regular summoners. Another problem is maybe lack of buff. Bring 1 gladius cost us having just 1 debuff addition while normal summoners could have 3 skill/buff with 7 mana cost.

When to Use Eternan Bruno:
Medium high mana cap is very suitable for this summoners, especially with some ruleset that gives gladius cards to gain their bloodlust such as this equal opportunity ruleset. The easier bloodlust you get, the stronger gladius cards will get !
When to avoid Eternan Bruno:
Low mana cap as i've mentioned is surely things to avoid with eternan bruno, and the ruleset that let all monster unarmored will get his -2 armor debuff is useless as well the bloodlust will never trigger armor addition. And don't use this summoners when you don't have gladius cards because you will waste another skill 🤣

What would i do next ?
I would like to use this summoners on higher mana cap, when i could combine the gladius cards with the legendary fire monster that are having bloodlust skill as well. It will be mad !

Conclussion

Eternan Bruno is having the unique skills to summon gladius cards that often having greater stats and skill, especially the bloodlust that get the monster stronger with every enemies eliminated by them. This summoners is suitable for medium high mana cap, but not on low mana cap because he cost 6 mana ! Get him anytime you want to use your gladius cards !
