[ Radiated Brute ] - Share Your Battle! Weekly Challenge

about 2 years ago

My first challenge of the week!
Theme and card of the week is Radiated Brute.

Thoughts: This is a card which I usually think of to put in my high cost Fire decks. In lower cost Fire decks, I think there might be more benefit in placing lower cost cards such as Uraeus or even some fodder cards to take aggro of Opportunity attacks.

Radiated Brute is a card which I see similarities to the Fineas Rage which I really liked playing after it opened my eyes to its win potential. However, their speed are vastly different, hence why I might feel differently towards the Radiated Brute's win potential.

Team Composition

Role: Summoner

A generally great summoner to be used. With a (+1) to melee attack and (+1) to health, it is versatile and often the favoured choice over Pyre, its other free Fire summoner.

Choosing Tarsa to combine with Disintegrator will give me a (+2) melee attack advantage over the opponent.

Role: Tank

The first in position and pretty much the mainstream tank you will see from Fire decks. With 'okay' health and 2 armour, along with the Shield ability, it is already a good tank, especially against melee and ranged attackers.

With 3 melee damage, it will further gain a (+1) boost from Tarsa, making it a scary foe.

Role: Secondary Tank, Reach

The second in position of the team and also the card of the week. With a good tank leading the front, the Brute will be able to steadily deal good damage to the opponent frontline with its ability - Reach.

For its cost, it has pretty decent stats except its one poor point, that is, its lack of speed.

Role: Debuff (Demoralize)

A great debuffer for a fire deck. With its ability 'Demoralize', it is really good if you know the opponent likes playing melee attack decks (likely Fire or Water, etc.)

This card, if played with Tarsa, will give you a 2 melee attack advantage over the opponent team.

Role: Damage Dealer, Backline Hitter (Sneak)

This is a good card in my opinion. With pretty good all around stats along with the Sneak ability, if not dealt with quickly, it will create havoc and clear out the backline on the opposing team.

Placed it in the middle to let him survive longer.

Role: Damage Dealer, Opportunity

Probably the favourite card of any Fire deck players. Played alongside Tarsa, it hits with 3 damage - probably hitting the enemy damage dealers.

At such a cheap cost, you would be able to wreak havoc in the enemy back lines and possibly win the round when the enemy do not pay attention to it.

Sandwiched it between 2 high health cards to hopefully keep it alive.

Role: Damage Dealer, Backline Shield

This is always a card I want to play whenever the mana cost is high. With great stats all around, it suffices as a damage dealer and also a backline shield.

Placed it at the back to tank the backstabs and also hopefully stay alive to deal critical damage to the opposing team.
