THE LINEUP
Understanding the strengths and weaknesses of each monsters in the game is a big help on winning every matches. By knowing their strengths and weaknesses, we can form a solid lineup that can win the game.
BATTLE STRATEGY: My strategy for this battle is to strengthen my offense and level up the health of my monsters. Strengthening the offense of my monsters will definitely elevate my winning chance and leveling up the health of my monsters will decrease the losing chance of my monsters. Also, I plan to create many attacks as much as possible.
The summoner that I choose for this battle is Tarsa. TARSA is a Rare Fire Summoner. It has ability to increase by 1 the melee attack and the life of other Fire monsters in the field. This summoner is perfect to use against summoners that reduces the life of your monsters. Also, this summoner is great to elevate the attacks of your monsters. This card can also summon high level Common monsters (white), Rare monsters (blue), Epic monsters (violet), and Legendary monsters (orange) depending on the level of this summoner. This summoner is perfect for my strategy because this summoner will be the reason of elevation of my offensive state. This is also perfect alongside with Radiated Brute because that monster has only 2 melee attacks and by increasing the attack of this monster, it could be a very big threat in the game. Also, that monsters has already high health and by increasing it more, its existence in the game will definitely last in the battle. The only issue for this summoner is its mana needed. Four mana is a somehow a big mana. That could limit your monster picking.
The tank that I choose for this battle is Living Lava. LIVING LAVA is a Rare Fire Monster with Shield ability. Monsters with this kind of ability reduces the melee and range attack damage made by the opponent. Mostly, their attacks are turn into halves. This card has 3 melee attacks, 1 speed, 2 shields, and 6 lives. By looking at its overall characteristics, we can say that this card is the perfect tank for the Fire unit. Its ability and strength is lethal and destructive. This monster is perfect alongside with Radiated Brute because Radiated Brute is always placed in the second position to ensure the effectiveness of its ability. With that, this tank will be enough to protect Radiated Brute from the damages and also enough to prevent it from placing in the first position. The only downside of this monster is its speed. It has very low speed, meaning, it cannot avoid any attacks made by the opponent. To make this card more valuable, increasing the speed of this card is highly recommended.
For the second position, I decided to use Radiated Brute. RADIATED BRUTE is a Common Fire Monster with Reach ability. Monsters with Reach ability attacks the monsters of the opponent that is in the first position if the monster is place on the second position. This monster has 2 melee attacks, 1 speed, and 5 health. By looking at the overall characteristics of this monster, we can say that this monster is a great asset in the game. Its melee attack, increased by the picked summoner, could be the reason of wreckage of defense of the opponent. Also, its life is pretty impressive and could definitely help it to stay longer in the battle. The only downside of this monster is its low speed. Base on its speed, it only shows that this monster cannot avoid any attacks made by the opponent. To maximize the strength of this monster, I suggest to use summoner or monster that can increase the speed of other cards.
As this monster continue to grow and level up, its stats and ability improves as well.
In Level 6 of this monster, it has 3 melee attacks, 3 speed, and 6 lives and this monster also gains another ability called Enraged. Monsters with this kind of ability has increased melee attack and speed when they get damage by the opponent. That is pretty useful in battle and that is definitely a great ability to win the battle. That could completely change the game. Also, at this level, this monster has 100 BCX and has collection power of 500.
In its final level, at level 10, this monster has 4 melee attacks, 4 speed, and 7 lives. It does not get new ability at this level but by its stats and previous ability, still, this card is the one to watch. This could be the reason of winning your battle. Also, in this level, this card has 400 BCX and has collection power of 2,100.
For the third position, it is better to use monster that can target strong ones. With that, I decided to use Serpentine Spy. SERPENTINE SPY is a Common Fire Monster with Opportunity ability. Monsters with this kind of ability attacks from any position and it attacks monsters with lowest health. This monster has 2 melee attacks, 3 speed, and 1 life. By looking at its characteristics, we can say that this card is a threat for battle. Its speed is very impressive, which means that it has high chance of evading attacks from the opponent. Its high melee attacks is also commendable because it can definitely contribute largely to the game. This monster is perfect alongside with Radiated Brute because t can help it to create massive attacks. Serpentine Spy could also attract the Opportunity ability of the opponent and prevents it from attacking Radiated Brute. The only issue here is its low health. It only has 1 health and by only 1 effective attack, this monster will be eliminated in the game.
For the fourth position, I think it will be better if I use monster that can eliminate back position monsters. With that, I decided to use Tenyii Striker. TENYII STRIKER is a Rare Fire Monster with Sneak ability. Monsters with this kind of ability attacks the monsters of the opponent in the back position. This is vital for the game since most of the players place their strongest monster in the back (to know more about this ability, click this). Eliminating the strongest monster first is a good strategy to ruin their offense. Also, this monster has 2 melee attacks, 2 speeds, and 6 lives. By evaluating the characteristics of this monster, we can say that it has a major role in the battle due to its different way of attack. This could be a great asset in the game. This monster is perfect alongside with Radiated Brute because it can save Radiated Brute from large attacks by eliminating the back position monsters. It can also help it on crating massive damage towards the opponent.
For the last position, I decide to use monster that protect my monster against Sneak ability. With that, I decided to use Radiated Scorcher. RADIATED SCORCHER is a Common Fire Monster with No ability. It has 1 melee attack, 2 speed, and 2 health. This monster is not that strong compared to other fire monster but its existence is helpful in the game and somehow reliable on the battle. This is perfect alongside with Radiated Brute because this monster will serve as the back protection for all of the monsters that are helping Radiated Brute in the game. This monster has 2 lives, which means it could possibly survive two attacks, and due to its speed, it can somehow avoid attacks of other monsters.
THE BATTLE SUMMARY
For this week, its DEATH vs. FIRE!
The battle started by having some ground rules. The battle is a 25 mana fight and No standard. The No Standard battle means that both players can use any elements and any cards as long as their total mana is fitted to the given mana cap. Normally, the No Standard battle happens on rank Bronze III and below.
At first, the two summoners contest their abilities. Tarsa increases the life and melee attacks of my monsters and the summoner of my enemy reverses it as it reduces the life of my monsters. Both sides turns out that the abilities of their summoners are effective but it failed to reduce the attacks given to my monsters by my summoner.
In the first round, every monster tries to eliminate other monsters. Some of them successfully did it, but some are not. Radiated Brute is the last card that attacks on the first round. It attacks the tank of the opponent and it creates deduction to its health but the tank of my opponent has Thorns ability, leaving Radiated Brute deduction to its life.
In second round, the battle intensifies. All monsters creates damaging attack, making it the reason of the elimination the tank of my opponent. The tank of my opponent was attacked by Serpentine Spy. Since it has only 1 health, it suffers to the effect of Thorns ability, making it eliminated for this round. Now, its 3 versus 3.
In the third and fourth round of this battle, the hunger of winning this game leveled up and everyone want to achieve victory. Tenyii Striker kills all the back position monsters one by one and the Living Lava and Radiated Brute combines their power to eliminate the current tank of the opponent. At the end, only the monster without attacks left on the side of my enemy. With this, it only shows that victory is mine.

CONCLUSION
The battle is great and everyone performs very well, there are some monsters that did not show their full potential but that is understandable because of their low speed and health.
Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?
Yes, my strategy works perfectly. The offense of all of my monsters was elevated and it is really effective against the Death Unit. Next time, I will ty to elevate as well my speed so that there will be an increase of evading chance.
Do you like the RADIATED BRUTE? Why or why not?
Yes, I definitely like the Radiated Brute. Its ability is useful in the field and its stats are pretty strong and reliable in the battle. It has high contribution on creating damage and it can be elevated and improved more by other summoners and monsters.
