Naga Assassin's Backfire
Little League was one of the rulesets I dislike in my Splinterlands early days of playing the game. It was I ruleset I wish to always give up on but the never give up attitude always had me fighting anyway.
Little League: Only Monsters & Summoners that cost less than 4 mana may be used in battles.
Over time as I got better at playing Splinterlands, Little League became one of my favorites with the Life element being my strongest.
So in this fight, I came up against a strong side with Naga Assassin to deal with as it cause problems for my sneak monsters with the Backfire ability.

PELACOR CONJURER is often my favorite Tank in the Little League or low mana battles because of the Magic Reflect and Flight abilities it has. When supported with a Tank Heal it does a great job at holding up the frontline impressively.
The use of Earth Splinter option is available to us for this fight, Obsidian is a deadly magic summoner I have lost against on several occasions so when I build a low mana line up I am always prepared for magic attack. So BLINDING REFLECTOR offers Magic Reflect ability like Pelacor Conjurere which was useful for this battle.
STITCH LEECH occupies the third spot in my lineup with the Sneak ability. With a Sneak damage of 3, Stich Leech often gets called for a fight in my deck.
The work rate of DHAMPIR INFILTRATOR is amazing and interesting to watch when it gets busy at the enemy backline, with the Sneak and Double Strike abilities it possesses. Unfortunately, I lost Dhampir Infiltrator in the fight due to the resilience of Naga Assassin and the opportunist Parasitic Growth.
VENARI CRYSTALSMITH provided Healing for the Tank with the Heal ability. With a speed of 3 and 5 health at level 4, Venari Crystalsmith does a great job at being a Tank healer in high or low mana battles.
My intention was to direct more attacks to the enemy backline so URAEUS had to join in on the action by occupying the backline in my lineup with Sneak ability. Uraeus was on the receiving end of Naga Assassin's backfire as well but survived the battle that lasted for 6 rounds.

I like the Backfire Ability, and I use it a lot in battles. It was wise of you to use sneak monsters, I like your strategy. Congrats buddy, nice victory.
Thanks, I like the back fire ability also but I only have one card with that ability and it is Naga Assassin, I have to upgrade the other cards to get the back fire ability.

I'm surprised you don't have a level 5 RIFTWING card, I think you should upgrade it.
Lol the reason is that I rarely used Death Splinter, I suck at Death Splinter you can beat me 10-0 if we have to fight using Death
In low mana cost battles, Death Splinter is my favorite. 😆
I guess you don't care about the death splinter because you have Bortus. 😆
I notice Death is strong in low mana battles, to be honest, I don't care about my Death deck.
Lol you know I like Water element a lot.
You know I like beating Bortus :P
Lol, which element is your least favorite?
Fire
Wow, I like Fire.
I just upgraded TARSA to level 4 a few days ago, maybe I like it too :)
Lol, maybe you do like Fire.
Let's see, we'll see. Will level 4 Tarsa make me love Fire? 😆
Yes it takes someone that loves Fire to upgrade it to level 4.
I don't think you have a weakness with any of the elements I think you are strong with all of them
I leveled up my summoners in all of them, now I'm stronger in all of them. But I like to use Dragon, Life and Water elements more.
Those are my 3 favorite elements thats why we know each other very well 😃
I'm following you 😃
Death unit works very well in low mana battles :

Nice victory, Bonesmith is very useful for low mana battles even the soulbound range card with protection ability adds defense to the lineup.
Exactly, buddy. Riftwing is also really good.
Yes, I will upgrade it soon.
LOL

Your opponent is stubborn to go against the ruleset 😃
Let them make mistakes so that the victory is ours. 😃
Lol true. They have a rich deck but lack strategy

The backfire ability is great. I haven't used Naga assassin much but I do use Riftwing more often with the same ability.
I should upgrade my Riftwing the backfire ability makes it more useful.
