Magic Tsunami, Episode 13 - Splinterlands
LOBSTRADAMUS RESURRECTED
Rule Set
Broken Arrows: No Range Monsters
Splinters allowed: Fire, Water, Earth, Life
Strategy
Since no range monsters were allowed, I could either go for a melee or magic team but since magic bypasses armor I went with that in the hopes of overpowering whatever magic team my opponent came up with. I went with a magic boost from Alric Stormbringer as my summoner, then Lobstradamus for magic damage but also to soak up reduced melee damage thanks to his Shield ability, after that I chose Djinn Oshannus for increased magic damage but also because his Void ability would reduce incoming enemy magic attacks, then I picked Nerissa Tridawn for the highest magic damage on my team, then River Hellondale to resurrect Lobstradamus so that my opponent could waste an attack on a basically a resurrect mini-attack sponge, and then I chose Mischievous Mermaid for increased magic damage and Coral Wraith for increased magic damage but also because of its Sneak ability.
Opponent's Line-up
My opponent went with a magic Earth team headed by Obsidian which gave all their magic monsters an attack increase. Their 1st monster was Venari Knifer with Thorns but thankfully I didn't have any melee monsters. In 2nd, they chose Unicorn Mustang whose Void ability would reduce my magic damage. For 3rd, they went with Mycelic Slipspawn which was a good choice since its Taunt ability would draw all my attacks toward itself until it was dead. In the last two spots, they chose Regal Peryton with Flying and high Speed and Venari Spellsmith with Dispel which would undo positive status buffs to my 1st position monster.

Very nice battle. I like the strategy session. You should write a post ERC-laining how you add up life of the opponent and yourattack strength to calculate your chance of winning. There are other factors of court=se like speed and types of attack.
