Strategy is very important in battles, and a good strategy can enable you to dominate and achieve victory in battle, even against very powerful teams. Most battles are not won by the powerful, but by those with the best strategy. Many people strategize according to the rules of battle, but the best strategy is to disrupt the opponent's strategy. If you can break your opponent's strategy and resistance in battles, victory will be closer to you.

Before I start the battle, I review the last 5 battles of the opponent and try to predict what kind of strategy the opponent will team up, taking into account the rules of the battle and the mana value. I usually set my strategy around disrupting the opponent's strategy. It becomes much easier to achieve victory if I can disrupt the strategy of the opposing player in battle.

Battle Ruleset
Melee Mayhem
Mana Cap 48
Active Units : Water, Earth, Death, Dragon

Melee Mayhem rule means Melee attack Monsters can attack from any position.

Before starting the battle in the video, I reviewed the last 5 battles of the opposing player and the opposing player had very powerful NFT cards. And I knew that the opposing team would be very powerful in the battle, so it would be very difficult to win this battle. But with a good strategy, it could be much easier to win this battle. Taking into account the rule of the battle, the mana value of the battle, and the NFT cards that the opposing player has, I predicted that the opposing player would prefer the MYLOR CROWLING Summoner and determined my strategy accordingly in this battle.

In this battle, it seemed more logical to choose Melee Monsters according to the rules of battle, but when I teamed up with Melee Monsters, the probability of winning this battle was very low, so I needed to set a better strategy. By placing Monsters that are more resistant to Melee Monsters in the first and last positions on my team and preferring Magic Attack Monsters, I would be more likely to win this battle. In this battle, I built my team on this strategy.

Summoner and Monsters on My Team

In this battle, I chose ALRIC STORMBRINGER as Summoner. Thanks to Alric Stormbringer, all friendly Magic Attack Monsters have +1 Magic Attack. If I'm using Magic Attack Monsters in battle, I usually choose Alric Stormbringer as the summoner, and the Magic Attack Monsters in my team can attack more powerful in battle.

ALRIC STORMBRINGER is a very powerful Summoner. When used with a good strategy, Monsters in the team can be very effective in battles.

I knew that the opposing team would be very powerful in this battle, and the opposing player had really teamed up with a perfect strategy according to the battle rule. If I had teamed up according to the battle rule, there was little to no chance of winning this battle. My strategy was to disrupt the opponent's strategy and have a better strategy. Yes, the opponent's strategy was very good, but my strategy was much better.

The opposing team had two Heal Monsters and a Tank Heal Monster, and indeed it was nearly impossible to defeat this team with Melee Attacks. Fortunately, I had a better strategy.

The opposing team put a lot of effort into destroying LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR, but when LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR was resurrected after he was destroyed, it was a nightmare for the opposing team. Also, my team was able to easily destroy the Monsters on the opposing team with Magic Attacks.

My strategy worked really well in this battle and we managed to beat a very powerful team. My team easily won a very tough battle with a good strategy. Frankly, this battle shows that strategy is much more important in battle. You can watch my team's great battle and amazing show from the video or the battle link.
