Battle Ruleset

Ruleset Icon	Description
	Fog of War : Monsters lose snipe, sneak and opportunity abilities
	Amored up : All monsters have 2 armor in addition to their normal armor set
	Going the distance : Only monsters with ranged attacks may be used in battles

These three rulesets meant that I could only use up to ranged attacks monsters who will lose their snipe, opportunity and sneak abilities. All monsters would also have 2 shield in addition to what they already had.

Battle Details

Summoner buffs and depuffs took effect and the battle began with my last monster making use of its dual attack to reduce the health of my enemy's first monster to 1. My enemy attacked next with the last and third monsters reducing the health of my first monster to 3. My third monster killed my enemy's first monster.

Next wave attacks took place and my fourth monster killed my enemy's Vernari Markstrat resulting in my enemy's third monster to take up first spot and also gaining +1 stats.

My enemy also got to kill my first monster which made my second take up first spot and gain +1 stats ending round 1.

Attacks from both me and my enemy were all over the place till my enemy killed my first monster to end the second round.

My last monster killed my enemy's first monster at the start of round 3. Further attacks from my team killed the new monster who took the first spot.

Halfway through round 4, my team killed another one of my enemy's monsters leaving him with only one monster.

My enemy's last monster couldn't attack in the first position so it became all attacks from my team and we managed to finish my enemy off.

Here is my battle link. Watch here how I took my enemy to battle and won.
