Twisted Jester is a RARE rarity monster that comes in both beta and alpha editions and contains a ranged attack lying in death splinter. It has snipe ability which hits the second line magic, ranged or no attack monsters. It also has dodge ability starting from at level 5 up to the max.
I've added the screenshot of my battle and you can also find a link to watch my battle below.
What was my Lineup?
It was a 30 mana battle with Armored Up and Keep your Distance rulesets, I'll explain each monster used in the battle below.
So, let's move forward.
I went with Zintar Mortalis Death Summoner, it reduces 1 melee attack of opponents. Although I couldn't get benefit from this debuff as ruleset restricted to use melee monsters.
My first monster was an Old legendary monster Lord Arianthus, it's a good tank with no attack but many abilities. It comes with shield, void, magic reflect and thorns abilities at level 3.
Secondly, I used another no attack monster Gelatinous Cube level 6, although it doesn't have any attack still it serves best with its self-heal and scavenger abilities. I placed it at 2nd place so it can bear the snipe attacks of my opponent and in case my tank dies, it can take its place.
3rd place I covered with a rusty Boogeyman level 5. It's a nice reward edition monster with Slow and Rust abilities. As it was an armored up ruleset so rust ability helped me to reduce my opponent's armor by -2.
At the next position, I used Twisted Jester level 3. It comes with Snipe ability which kept attacking the second line monsters with magic, ranged or no attack monsters. I haven't leveled it up still its a nice choice for death splinter.
Next, I used level 4 Undead Archer, it's a rare promo monster, I just used it to stop my enemy's healings. As this monster kept applying its Affliction abilities on my opponent.
Lastly, I used another beta sniper monster Centaur, it missed most of the attacks but still, it helped me to destruct my opponent's 2nd place.
Did your strategy work?
Yes, it worked well and I won this battle. Twisted Jester kept sniping my opponent's Prismatic while centaur was missing attacks. So this is the winning monster I would say.
Do you use Twisted Jester often?
Yes, I do whenever I get a chance to use it.
