It is critical to understand how each battle rule works. Because exploiting the battle rules allows us to easily win the battle. Even common cards can outperform rare cards. In this post, we'll go over the fighting rules and how to use them in battle to win.

REVERSE SPEED

Monsters with the lowest Speed attack first and have the highest chance of evading attacks.

If you're acquainted with these fighting rules, there are a few things you should keep in mind:

1. While speed is important for avoiding attacks, the fastest will be the slowest in this fight. The lower a monster's speed points, the better.
2. Select a monster with a 1-point speed. Because you will be able to easily avoid your opponent's attacks. The normal speed is reversed in reverse speed.
3. Monsters with Enrage, Bloodlust, and Last Stand are doomed because they are slow when these skills are active.
4. Due to the monster's speed, magic attacks do not affect dodging; this only applies to melee and ranged attacks.

RULES AND TACTICS

Two rules apply in this battle: reverse speed and fog of war. Where the fog of war eliminates snipe and sneak abilities.

Except for the death element, there is a selection of elements that can be used. So, for this strategy, I chose the life element and attempted to dispatch the team as follows:

I put ONIX SENTINEL in front because it has a 1-point speed. Aside from that, I hope that with the speed of ONYX SENTINEL, all attacks from the first line of opposing troops will be difficult. Then I put SPIRIT HOARDER in the back as a healer for IZIAR. I also included the gladius monster, CAPTAIN KATIE, as well as the healer for the main monster, VENARI CRYSTALSMITH. Meanwhile, I went put GARGOYA SCRAPPER because I still had 1 mana point that hadn't been used.

The opposing army appears in the first round with a summoner who reduces magic ability by one point. This is undoubtedly a setback for my team, which relies on magical attacks. The opposing monster lineup includes magical monsters that are unaffected by the reverse speed rule. My monster, no matter how fast it is, will be unable to avoid magical attacks. Not to mention VENARI WAVESMITH, who provides the team with shield bonus support.

I divided the opponent's attack into two parts, one for IZIAR and one for ONYX SENTINEL. Attacks on IZIAR in quick succession. because the RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN's magical attack containing the explosion slowly drains the VENARI CRYSTALSMITH's life points. Meanwhile, my monster's weakened magical attacks failed to penetrate LOBSTRADAMUS' defense. During this round, my IZIAR became overwhelmed.

The attack pattern remained the same in the second round as it had in the first. It's just that IZIAR is becoming overwhelmed as health points begin to become critical.

SPIRIT HOARDER's attack knocked out LOBTRADAMUS in the third round. The same thing happened to IZIAR. The opponent's attack was successful in eliminating IZIAR.

The attack direction changes in the fourth round. ONYX SENTINEL is now the target of all of the opponent's attacks. The front row's weakness is that ONYX SENTINEL's void armor skill is not yet active. As a result, the magical attack was successful in draining ONYX SENTINEL's health points. In this round, MERDHAMPIR was successfully eliminated.

CAPTAIN KATIE's bloodlust ability is active in the sixth round. The attack and speed, both increase. It's just that the reverse speed rule hurts the fastest monsters.

So, in rounds 7 and 8, the battle between RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN and CAPTAIN KATIE took place. However, my monster was unable to survive due to the opponent's upgraded magic attack ability and the explosive attack that hit VENARI CRYSTALSMITH. As a result, I must acknowledge the superiority of the opposing team and accept defeat in this battle.

FINAL THOUGHTS

In this fight, I attempted to divide the opponent's attacks by using the TAUNT monster. Because of the reverse speed rule and the FOG OF WAR rule, I expect the opponent's attacks to miss a lot. I put ONYX SENTINEL, a monster with a speed of one point ahead. However, the enemy chose to use the summoner monster with magical attacks that reduced the power of my monster's attack.

In terms of personnel, in reverse speed battles, I tried using a gladius monster with the bloodlust ability. It turns out that when CAPTAIN KATIE activates this skill, her attacks become slower. This is completely contrary to the current fighting rules.

Magic attacks and blast attack abilities from enemy monsters, on the other hand, can be very effective in destroying my back defense line. Magic attacks that were unaffected by dodging abilities aggravated my monster even more with each round.

The lesson I can take from this battle is that I need to use the reverse speed rules to maximize my monster's abilities even more. It is certain that increasing the monster level and upgrading the ONYX SENTINEL's abilities so that the VOID ARMOR skill can be used will alter the course of the battle.

As a result, I've written a post about the reverse speed rule. The combination of these rules with other rules has a significant impact on the outcome of the battle. As a result, keep attempting to combine the ruleset with other rules to gain fighting experience.
