Battle Ruleset:

There were three rulesets in this battle which are Stampede, Explosive Weaponry, and Blood and Sunder. The allowed mana cap was 37 and only Life Splinter Summoners were active in this battle.

Battle Summoner:

I choose FRANZ RUFFMANE as a summoner for this battle, which is a reward edition Rare Life Splinter Summoner. It costs 6 mana and has two abilities(+1 armor and Conscript). I used this summoner because I wanted to use the Gladius edition card in this battle and it was the only summoner I could use the Gladius cards. I have upgraded it to level 5 and under this summoner, I can use monsters of up to level 6 common cards.

1. CHAOS KNIGHT:

In the first position, I used CHAOS KNIGHT which is a Chaos Legion edition common melee attack monster from the Life Splinter. I have got it at level 3 from the pack's opening. It costs 6 mana, gives a -3 melee damage, and has one ability Shield at level 3. I used it in the first place and in this battle because of its shield ability.

2. CORSAIR BOSUN:

In the second position, I used CORSAIR BOSUN which is a Rift edition common melee attack monster from the Life Splinter. It costs 10 mana, does a -4 melee attack, and has 2 abilities Reach and Reflection Shield at level 1. I used it in the second position because it has a Reflection Sheild ability and the battle ruleset was Blast so I used it in the second position. Currently, I have this monster at level 1 and it works very well for me in battles whenever I use it.

3. DAX PARAGON:

In the third position, I used DAX PARAGON which is a Chaos Legion edition an epic magic attack monster from the Life Splinter. It costs 2 mana, does -1 magic attack, and has no abilities at level 1. I used it in this battle because I had no other option available to use another card. Most of the time I use this monster in the low mana battles. Currently, I have this monster at level 1 and it works great for me in the low mana battles. I will soon upgrade it to level 2 for the Amplify ability.

4. CAPTAIN KATIE:

In the fourth position, I used CAPTAIN KATIE which is a Gladius edition rare magic attack monster from the Life Splinter. It costs 7 mana, does a -3 magic attack, and has 2 abilities Snipe and Bloodlust at level 1. I have upgraded it to level 4 in which its magic attack increases from -3 to -4. I used it in the fourth position and in this battle because of its high magic damage and Bloodlust abilities.

5. CELESTIAL HARPY:

In the fifth position, I used CELESTIAL HARPY which is also a Chaos Legion edition rare melee attack monster from the Life splinter. It costs 2 mana, does a -1 melee attack, and has 2 abilities Flying and Opportunity at level 1. I have upgraded it to level 3 in which its melee attack increases from -1 to -2. I used it in this battle because of its Opportunity ability and when it does attack it will also give the Blast damage. Currently, I have this monster at level 3 and it works fine for me.

6. VENARI CRYSTALSMITH:

In the last position, I used VENARI CRYSTALSMITH which is a Reward edition Range attack monster from the Life splinter. It costs 4 mana, does a -2 range attack, and has one ability Tank Heal at level 4. I used it in this battle because of its Tank Heal ability which will restore the health of the monster in the first place. I have upgraded it to level 4 and most of the time I am using it in my battles when I am playing with the Life splinter.
