Splinterlands | Broken Arrows Challenge

Another rule set this week in the Share Your Battle Challenge which is also called the Battle Mage Secrets for Splinterlands. This is the Broken Arrows Rule!

---

What I wrote about this Game Rule the last time around was:

This is another very straightforward rule set where ranged monsters can not be used. This makes it so that you know that your opponent will play Melee and Magic Monster Mostly so you can play counters to those.

Pretty much nothing changed really with extra rules added along with a ton of new cards since last time.

The 2 other game rules for this battle were that only monsters and summoners up to 4 mana could be used with all monsters also getting the cripple ability.

On the game rule where only up to 4-mana monsters can be used I usually go with either a full Magic team with the Queen Mycelia, a Life Deck with the Defender of Truth, or a Water Deck with the Crustacean King so all monsters get 2 Armor which makes a huge difference. Since Ranged was not allowed along with the Earth Splinter, I opened for the Daria Dragonscale summoner to give all monsters extra Melee attack. In first position, I placed the Neutral Xenith Monk which counters Magic attacks and has self-heal. The Twilight Basilik which actually is quite a good card. The Dhampir Infiltrator also is a strong card when given an extra melee attack and the Parasitic Growth was put in a position to pick up a ton of extra health. In the last 2 places, I placed the Defender Of Truth for the Armor and the Elven Mystic to further counter Magic which I probably should have switched with something else as it was killed pretty quickly due to sneak damage.
