Hello everyone, welcome back to the "Battle n Giveaway" post. In this post, I will be sharing battles that I think are unique (SHARE YOUR BATTLE) and also hosting giveaways that I have done before (UPVOTE BUDGET GIVEAWAY).

The last season ended a few hours ago. I thought I'd end up in GOLD I again last season because the battles were so fierce that I went on a Lose Streak many times. Even the day before the End of the Season, I almost dropped down to GOLD II and wanted to cancel playing at the last second. But 1 hour before the season ended, I only tried to play a few battles, but unexpectedly I was able to finish in DIAMOND III 15 minutes before the season ended.

The first part of this post will be about SHARE YOUR BATTLE, be it CARD FOCUS or RULESET FOCUS or just a battle I find interesting enough to share. After that, we'll move on to the GIVEAWAY section. There are changes to the GIVEAWAYS that are different from the usual (you can see them in full after the SHARE YOUR BATTLE section) And giveaways will happen 1~2 times per week

End of Season Rewards

End of Season Rewards this time are not so interesting, even though you get quite a lot of GOLD CHEST, there are only Common Cards and 1 Rare Card. The SPS and Merits obtained are also not too much. Unlike the DIAMOND CHEST that I got, even though it has a small amount, the SPS and Merit values are quite large. And luckily this season, the Season Rewards I get will be in the form of DIAMOND CHEST (and I can't wait to see what I'll get from there).

BLIND

Flying Squid once again became my savior in a battle. His second ABILITY (BLIND) became the determinant of my success in reaching DIAMOND III. to know the full events, let's see below...

Lets Start the Battles

The rulesets this time are SILENCED SUMMONERS, BROKEN ARROWS, and BORN AGAIN. Since one of the RULESETS (SILENCED SUMMONERS) negates the abilities of SUMMONERS, so we chose the SUMMONER with the highest level. I chose Kelya Frendul level 5 while the opponent chose Vera Salacia level 6 (the opponent had the advantage of the level limitation of the monsters that could be carried).

The opponent brought 3 Melee monsters with huge ATTACK POWER, 2 OPPORTUNITY monsters (Kulu Mastermind and Deeplurker) and 1 SNEAK monster (Sand Worm). I was worried that my monsters with low HEALTH POINT (River Hellondale and Merdaali Guardian) would be targeted by my opponent's OPPORTUNITY monsters. My worries increased when my opponent also brought Baakjira which has SLOW, if my SPEED is reduced then the effectiveness of BLIND will be reduced (I thought).

So I put off looking at the battle and pressed SKIP TO RESULTS, but as it turned out...

"Uh, I won? What happened? " I decided to replay the battle...

It turns out that Kulu Mastermind's attack failed to hit River Hellondale so River Hellondale only lost ARMOR due to the attack from Deeplurker (but managed to survive the POISON). Baakjira was defeated by attacks from 4 of my monsters (Diemonshark, Flying Squid, Nerissa Tridawn, and River Hellondale).

This time it was the turn of Deeplurker's attack that failed to hit River Hellondale and Sand Worm's attack that failed to hit Noa the Just. Meanwhile, Kulu Mastermind was defeated by my 4 monsters with ATTACK POWER.

Finally, Diemonshark was defeated by Runemancer Kye and Doctor Blight with the help of AFFLICTION and POISON. They could only really defeat it because River Hellondale survived and avoided the opponent's monster OPPORTUNITY attack so that Dieomonshark was revived twice (1 from BORN AGAIN Ruleset, 1 from River Hellondale).

Although the opponent's magic monster's HEALTH Point is very high (thanks to LIFE LEECH and SCAVENGER), the total ATTACK POWER I have can still defeat the opponent...

GIVEAWAYS TIME !!!

What is the Upvote Budget that you mentioned earlier?

Upvote Budget (or maybe there's a better name) is slightly different (perhaps) GIVEAWAYS from the others. The reason for naming Upvote Budget is because all prizes destined for GIVEAWAYS come from the total Upvotes received in each post (more precisely the Author Reward section)

How these giveaways work

• Every GIVEAWAYS post uses Hive account@reward.app (so the reward for posting will be HBD and HIVE)

  • back to 50% HBD 50%HP

• The Total Upvote Value affects the limit of cards that can be selected

• Winners can choose any card they want (As long as there is sufficient DEC)

  • You can see the price of each card in Peakmonster
    
    

• The maximum number of winners for giveaways is 3 people (3 draws) or until the DEC is not sufficient to purchase a card only 1 user.

• The remaining DEC will be added to the GIVEAWAYS the next week next post.

The number of prizes from giveaway posts that will be converted into DEC is 20% (or 40% of the total Author Reward) decreased to 5% (or 10% of the total Author Reward)

How to join this GIVEAWAYS

• Upvotes are not required as a condition to enter this giveaway. However, the more upvotes that each post gets, the more varied the cards that can be selected will be.

• Re-blog is also not a requirement. However, the more users who know about these GIVEAWAYS, the more likely they will upvote and the prizes will increase.

• You just need to write a comment once on each GIVEAWAYS post.

  • Also write down your IGN (In-Game Name) if it is different from the name you use for your HIVE account.

  • Write down a list of the cards you want, starting with the most expensive to the cheapest. If you don't write it down, you will be disqualified.

Example* :

Hive account@vrezyy (or you can write IGN: vrezyy) 1. Tenyii Striker 2. Venari Crystalsmith 3. Gargoya Lion

*_{You are free to write down how many cards you want (as long as you follow the rules), but the winner will only get 1 card.}
