I fought against WEATHERLOVE with a mana cap of 29 and all elements. I was in Modern Ranked in Bracket I.
I decided to go with Thalgrimore as my summoner. I wanted to play with a smaller team so I went with 3 cards. As I was interested in trying out different combinations I thought this would be a good opportunity to try out a new team. I wasn’t sure how well they would work but I was willing to give them a try.
Battle Details
Mana Cap: 29
Elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Life, Death & Dragon.
Modifier: Counterspell (All units gain Magic Reflect which causes the attacking unit to take 50% of the magic damage dealt to them rounded up).
The main thing to note here is that I have a counterspell modifier. This means that all units will gain Magic Reflect. If you have a lot of magic attackers in your team this can be problematic.
I always find modifiers interesting to play with as it changes the way people will play. Some cards which usually perform well may not be the best choice here. I wanted to make sure I was aware of the battle conditions.
My Cards
1st: Nim Guard Captain
2nd: Sorrow Harvester
3rd: Vengeful Monk
I had a team comprised of Nim Guard Captain, Sorrow Harvester and Vengeful Monk.
I wanted to see how well I would do with this team and only a few cards. I chose each card to try and create a competitive team with less cards.
I wanted to try out Vengeful Monk with this type of team. It’s always a good idea to try out different cards with different combinations to see what teams you enjoy playing with. I don’t think you should always play the same way, there are lots of combinations to try.
I also wanted to see how well this team would do against an opponent with a different team. I couldn’t guarantee it would work but it was worth a try!
Battle
This was an interesting battle as both sides had different combinations. I was really curious to see how well my 3 cards would do. I had chosen to go with less cards so wanted to see if my choices were enough to win.
As the cards battled I watched the battle. There is always a little bit of excitement when using a new combination that you haven’t tried much. Sometimes it’s hard to determine the outcome of the battle from the cards you have chosen. Watching the battle helps you understand how well your choices work together.
I continued to watch the battle. I had defeated WEATHERLOVE and had another ranked win. This was a good result for my team as I was trying out a new team.
I had also unlocked Division 7. It was exciting to see my new division screen. I now have more of a reason to continue playing ranked and improve my rating.
I had also gained 300 of glints. From the rewards screen I had gained 1 Legendary Potion Charge. It’s always nice to gain extra rewards from a successful battle.
Looking into the future
I have now unlocked Division 7 and am excited to see how I do in my next set of ranked battles. The competition may get harder but I’m looking forward to it.
I want to try out more combinations. There are still a lot of cards I would like to try. Hopefully I’ll find some interesting strategies.
