My First Encounter Night With Fivealive Was Like Horror movie

Designed By Canvas
If you are not taught the process, such one cannot do anything when the challenge comes.
The first time I encountered fivealive Rule Set was in midnight. I was like dumbo because there was nothing I could do to help myself. It was like Horror movie. I was savaged by opponent monsters as if a Horror movie I watched of which a ghost devoured the whole community.
Hmmmm! My calculation was to use 6 monsters in that particular battle. After selecting 5 monsters, I realized that mana was left to select a monster. I was looking at my arrangement, maybe someone was wrong.
That was how I kept on staring at my lineup until I was left with 10 seconds. Since I don't want to lose the battle, I submitted the battle.
My opponent understood fivealive rule set; therefore, he utilized the best monsters and a summoner. Because I wasn't aware of the fivealive rule, I lost the battle.
After the battle, I watched the battle again; and I realized that it was 5 pots given instead of 6 pots. Then, I learned my lesson, and I promise not to make such a mistake again.

I was not surprised because it was my first time I saw a rule in the battle, and there was no time to read more about the rule.
I was waiting for the to get fivealive rule in the battle, I couldn't get the battle rule that very day again. I was not sure if it was next day, but I was paired with someone with fivealive rule.
At this time, since I was given 48 mama, I used Helios Matriarch summoner and best monsters. I used monsters with high mana and good attack: that was how I won the battle.

Last week battle mage secrets Challenge
I said something about fire and regret ruleset. I said, ‘it is sweet to fight fire and regret when you have best monsters and Summoners; and it is sweetest to know the best suitable position for all monsters you use’.
I understood Fire and Regret, I used two Martyrs monsters to increase the stats of adjacent monsters. My plan was that, ‘opposite monsters should eliminate those martyr monsters or fire and regret ability should eliminate them.
Unfortunately, only one Martyr was eliminated.
Melee Mayhem was the reason I placed Fungus Flinger as the last battle. I thought my opponent would use a sneak monster that could destroy Fungus Flinger from behind.
The good news is that I won the battle!

This week, we were give fivealive rule to talk about; but I'm this battle, I'm going to talk about Equal opportunity before Fivealive. This is because every rule in a battle has an effect. Because of opportunity rule; range, magic and melee monsters were attacking monsters with the smallest health.
Without opportunity ability in this battle, Kulu Mastermind would have been the only monster to attack monsters with the smallest health.

I understand the ‘opportunity rule’ very well, I have played many battles with the opportunity ruleset.
Melee monsters attack in opportunity ruleset Irrespective of the positions, and that was the reason I used Diemonshark in the last position.
One of the risks of ‘opportunity rule’ is that range monsters cannot attack in the first position except if the range monsters have close range ability.
If your opponent uses magic monsters with a monster with ‘protect ability’ and you use melee and range monsters, it may not be easy to win.
I came across a player that used Obsidian and Queen Mycelia while I used Malric inferno summoner and melee monsters. I was defeated in that battle.

Rules of the battles
Fivealive: Up to five units can be used.

Equal Opportunity: All monsters have the Opportunity ability.

Mana: I was able to make a good decision from the 59 mana. The mana gave me the opportunity to choose my best monsters and a summoner for this battle.

Arrangement
Alric Stormbringer
Summoner: Earth 🌎🌍
Level: 4⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ability: give +1 magic attack to all friendly magic monsters.
Mana: 4
The only reason I selected Alric Stormbringer was the two magic monsters I used. It was important to use Alric Stormbringer so that the magic attack of Djinn Oshannus and Nerissa Tridawn could increase but +1. The additional melee attack made it easy to eliminate opponent monsters.

Ability: Taunt
Health: 14 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Armor: 3🪖🪖🪖
Attack: Melee
Mana: 12
The Kraken was one of the monsters I could use to distract opponent monsters. The taunt ability was the biggest advantage to me to destroy opponent monsters.
I understood that kraken must be eliminated before they could attack any other monster in my lineup. That was the reason I used the kraken to delay the opponent's monsters. By the time the kraken was eliminated, two monsters were eliminated from my opponent's lineup.

Djinn Oshannus
Splinter: Water 💦💦
Level: 2 ⭐⭐
Speed: 4🚤🚤🚤🚤
Ability: Phase and Void
Health: 11 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Attack: Magic
Mana: 8

It is well known that after elimination of the kraken, Djinn Oshannus would be the next monster to lead the lineup. Though, I was also thinking that my opponent could use magic monsters as the first monster in his lineup; so, it was an opportunity for me to use Djinn due to the void and phase abilities.
Djinn Oshannus was not attacked in this battle because my opponent used a non-attacking monster in the first position.

Nerissa Tridawn
Splinter: Water 💦💦
Level: 2 ⭐⭐
Speed: 1🚤
Ability: None
Health: 10 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Attack: Magic
Mana: 9
Nerissa Tridawn 🐉 Magic ability drawn my attention to use it.
Nerissa Tridawn would be the second to tha last monster that would be attacked in my lineup due to its health. Therefore, I knew that by the time Nerissa would be eliminated, more monsters would be eliminated from my opponent's lineup.

Kulu Mastermind
Splinter: Water 💦💦

Kulu Mastermind speed and melee were something that made me use it. Baakjira reduced the speed of all my monsters

Armor: 6 🪖🪖🪖🪖🪖🪖
Attack: Melee

This kind of battle is unpredictable at times. I knew that after elimination of the kraken, the next monster to attack was Diemonshark. I strongly believe that the armor of Diemonshark would help to delay if my opponent used magic monsters.
Unfortunately, the only melee monster that my opponent used was the first monster that was eliminated. It was not given opportunity to attack.

Round one
It was a mischievous Mermaid that started the attack; she attacked the kraken.
Looking at the opportunity rule of this battle, it was Diemonshark that she was supposed to attack because it was the monster with the smallest health, but the taunt ability of the Kraken could not allow such things to happen.
Djinn Oshannus should have been the first monster to attack, it couldn't attack because my opponent used a monster with slow ability.
Djinn Oshannus was the second monster to attack; it attacked and eliminated Enchanted Defender.
The other two attacking monsters of opponent- Mermaid Healer and Nerissa Tridawn 🐉 attacked the kraken and its health was damaged to 5.
Kulu Mastermind, Diemonshark and Nerissa Tridawn eliminated and destroyed Mermaid Healer.
By the end of round one, two monsters were destroyed from my opponent's lineup while none was destroyed from my lineup.

Round two
As usual, Mischievous Mermaid attacked the Kraken again but couldn't eliminate it. Djinn Oshannus damaged three health from Mischievous Mermaid; opponent's Nerissa Tridawn finally eliminated the kraken.
The Mischievous Mermaid was eliminated in round 2.
By the end of round 2, 2 monsters were eliminated.

Round three and four
Nothing really happened in round three; no monster was eliminated in round three.
In round 4, Diemonshark was eliminated from my lineup while Nerissa Tridawn was eliminated from my opponent's lineup.
By the end of round 4, I was left with three monsters while my opponent was left with one.

Round nine
It took me round 9 to eliminate the last monster.
