![](https://images.ecency.com/DQmXRZNxkboCDe49v3Aq3drAcfMFGo7ZFxVyHccRSuvc5Vw/image.png) This challenge is based on the rule set specified by the Splinterlands so it is much difficult than Social Media Challenge.

All units gain the Divine Shield ability which reduces the damage of the first attack received to 0. Divine Shield will be re-applied when a unit is Resurrected. Blast damage will remove divine shield.

---

All units has Divine Shield ability so no units to choose from. As said it can only nullify one attack from opponent. So counters for Holy Protection are [Blast], [Redemption], [Cripple], [Stun], [Affliction], [Poison], [Enfeeble] and so on. All the ability that has the after hit affect are included in this category. One should not use monster or monsters with [Taunt] ability in Holy Protection rule set because the opponent will focus fire in one place.

Because of Super Sneak my melee will attack from behind. This is another tactic to consider. I need to focus fire enemy's monster so I decide to use melee monsters mostly. I also decided to defend the Sneak attacks. https://images.hive.blog/DQmaz84JUB6R7rFeGwCnVtJp7mKwR4f4M4JYoQG6gCmemsq/image.png NOA THE JUST ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23wLzaxScMaPDXT6JLfHYnMMCUe1anobXM582UNkfAczaWTWiTuUCBrZerdxs9LTDe8bk.png) NOA THE JUST has high Armor and high Speed. It also has [Dodge] and [Rusty] ability. Mostly people used melee monster as first position monster. I hope my opponent will use melee monsters mostly because of Super Sneak. It has better to use with KULU MASTERMIND because its lack of attack power. KULU MASTERMIND ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23wfjTdbJxxfDxY8U6c8LCNShh58sPj9jgnQTLbD9JpbXyfu7jjPAJuVQ6zbwB4GSREgW.png) KULU MASTERMIND is a support type monster and that can add 3 damage to adjacent monsters with no attack power. KELP INITIAT ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23vriSJDCx4VPQRBnjxR94rSaehFy3ffL2B4NZkRtVz4vciVsnq6JK63EkqowWxcQ86Sj.png) It only cost two mana and will get 3 damage due to KULU MASTERMIND. It is quite cheap solution to get an attack power. CORAL WRAITH ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23vhKV4fJXJ9fKyG9j261WBH5Y9Lke1rb9yFnodUe8YfZMTNDUjmiWCwPWDF3DgbQvsGB.png) I used CORAL WRAITH because what if he use monster like ENCHANTED DEFENDER in last position. This would be a cheat for me. ENCHANTED DEFENDER ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23uEuc3dSdmosdVvo3oBno6rFmEMtvL8Y81Fmj6pDgFkaX22ewFsP7zJBKoEzkX1iMPtG.png) I am trying to defend his Sneak attack but I am afraid he would use monster like Coral Wraith.

SPINEBACK TURTLE

I prefer [Thorns] over [Shield]. ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmaz84JUB6R7rFeGwCnVtJp7mKwR4f4M4JYoQG6gCmemsq/image.png) Battle History ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23tkovdGrFrC6WPcbZ7XKJP1xxzo1j5dPRRXfxVbtz38VRk6hSLCpPJnd2mf6nyG2hvCH.png) His summoner has [Thorns] ability this is quite a good choice. I chose summoner with Armor and Speed. His magic damage is minimal and there are only two melee attack monsters in his team. No worry for me. His defensive stance is correct but did not have enough fire power. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23tkmq924ZLd6S84hhWLBZ3afcGiiXZ7YE9QHL48Y4mTmQgt53kvbwbLvSi6bcDiVw8Nc.png) His Tank fell very quickly. Another one will fall too. And now is the trun of Failed Summoner. My melee damage is quite high and has a lot of Health. My Armor is quite useful in this battle. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/48HAKJuc3QiWpjCWgSeYaokZtMtrSU5tRA43uXnhoa3v75Z3Du5VwrWioP1RxpL8c5.png) Failed Summoner fell too. Next turn is for THANE NEWSONG. ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23tbMP4ccecckAtAraULypwtVKef3MVtRisE1Yqe72KPX2WqrASqgxxkgd6ZV5dA8FD6Z.png) ![image.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/beyondhorizonmm/23tv8HKF88sTmQibXt29U2oeR64fGvfUrySNz4vg9QtfeyKxy73FZ1f3Pfc6DiqHC7Deq.png) This is the final image of the battle. His attack methods are useless against me. It would be a loss for him KATRELBA GOBSON met with Thorns. It died very quickly. COEURL LURKER did very quickly too because {Dodge] did not work in first round. [//]: # (This is the beginning of footer.)
