Helliiaawww
what's up Splinter Player around the world how are you doing?
in this content i want to share one of Common Soulbounds Reward card in water element called Coastal Sentry. The most fearsome in water melee army. This monster can attack twice with Double Strike ability and have high basic melee damage from low level. Do you know how to use the Coastal Sentry?
Lets check this card out
As you can see the picture above it is Coastal Sentry status from level 1 until level 10. In this battle case i am playing Coastal Sentry level 4. it is still need more BCX card to get level 5 and by the way my water summoner Kelya is just level 4 so the maximum that i can used is level 5 common.Level 5 Coastal Sentry is having 7 Health Armor 2 Speed 4 and the Melee damage is 4. Abilities of this monster is make Coastal Sentry super fearsome in some battle. Double Strike with each hit got 4 melee damage that make total 8 Melee damage which is very huge especially hitting some Tanker monster. What make this monster fearsome is the basic speed too. with 4 basic speed it included in the fastest group in Water element. when this monster level 6 which is playing in gold league with minimum summoner level 5 will get additional Ability Pierce so the rest of attack that attacking Armor will counted as pure damage to HP. So this monster more stronger. The weakness of this monster is the manacap is very high. And if encountered with monster that having Giant Killer ability it will get killed fast.
Strategy Phase
Okay in this battle the most advantage for Coastal Sentry is Super Sneak ruleset that make all monster have sneak ability. So, wherever you place Coastal Sentry it will still attacking the monster in back. The second ruleset is Unprotected that means all monster dont have any armor and cannot get armor from abilities. The last is Tis but Scratches that means all monster have cripple ability. The manacap is somehow above average which is 42 manacap and all the element can be used now.
With the element have all opened so it will hard to choose using what element the best for this ruleset and manacap. In my main account Arveno my choice is just 3 element that is Water element,Earth elemen,and the last one is Death element.
Considering the ruleset i an need some speed to at least can be the first turn to attacking the enemy first. and my choice goes down to using Kelya and water army. Not only have nice speed but from all my element that i have just Water element that having great attack and have good speed. Thats why i am using Kelya for this battle.
Okay,after i am choosing Kelya as summoner you can see what monster that i bring and what the reason behind. You can check my table below
| Cards | Position | Ability | Reason | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Summoner | +1 Armor & Speed | I am using this summoner because this summoner have giving 1 additional speed to all my monster so i will make sure to have more speed than the opponent so with attacking first so my chance to win this battle is higher than using the another summoner | |
 | Front Tanker | Rage & Trample | I am using this monster because this monster have high speed and high HP and good for the frontliner tanker. The abilities is very suitable for frontliner tanker. The rage Ability will make this monster stroner and with Trample ability it will give additional damage if can killing the enemy. | |
 | Buff Support | Inspire | I am using this monster to counter the opponent if bringing Demoralized monster ability so all my monster will stay with the basic attack. But,if the opponent did not bring Demoralized monster all my monster get additional melee damage and with Super Sneak ability this monster can still attacking the backliner of the opponent. | |
 | Attacker | Opportuniy | I am bringing this monster because this monster is having high melee basic damage which is can killing the opponent very fast with the melee attack that this monster have | |
 | Attacker | Double Strike | I am bringing this monster because this monster have high melee damage and the ruleset is suitable for this monster with double strike ability. This monster can bring high damage dealer in the backliner. | |
 | Filler | Camuflage & Reflection Shield | I am bringing this monster because this monster have low manacap so i can using this monster as filler to adding damage for my team.The second reason is if the enemy using blast ability this monster can muffled the blast effect. | |
 | Backliner Tanker | Slow & Void | I am using this monster because this monster is suitable for the tanker with super high HP and having slow ability that will make this monster hard to be beaten. So with bringing this monster my team get additional 1 speed and give 1 speed debuff for the opponent. |
So this is my strategy. Will it work this time?
Lets check out in battlephase
Battlephase
Okay this time i am encountered with same element and same summoner Kelya but the different is opponent using Kelya that level 5 and mine is still level 4. Hoping the opponent not bring max level 5 monster so i still have chance to win this battle. 1 Different level somehow can bring disadvantages for my team.
Round 1 Part 1
As usual first round always all monster get buff and debuff from both summoners and monster. Based from speed my party and the opponent party have same speed. the opponent bring Supply Runner that will adding one speed and with my Baakjira the opponent lose 1 speed and still adding 1 speed from Kelya. In this battle thankfully that Opponent Diemonshark have same as mine so the atack still not have different. but the other like Flying Squid and Deeplurker the opponent is have higher status compared with my monster.
Whats good is my Diemonshark got hit first from Supply Runner attack and be raged and attacking opponent Diemonshark,after that Opponent Diemonshark attacking back and leaving my Diemonshark 1 HP.after that Flying Squid give damage to my Baakjira. Continue to part 2
Round 1 Part 2
The battle still continue my first Coastal Sentry attack missing the attack the blind ability is very affected in this battle for me. But i dont now when i am using blind ability the opponent seems did not have the affect. this is weird but it is okay i am getting used with the Bot RNG algorithm. Bot always get this stuff than human player get. But,it is okay in this round my team can killed Wave brood and both Diemonshark fainted. Overall, in round 1 i am still on winning position.
Round 2
In round Coastal Sentry killing 2 monster in row with 1 attack with total 10 melee damage it is super effective to killing the opponent so fast. First killing Angelic Mandarin and Supply Runner. but in my team Baakjira fainted too with the attack from opponent deeplurker.In the end of round 3 still my team on winning position.but, shit can happens right? lets move to round 3
Round 3
Based from i know that blind just adding 10% of missing the attack right.But, from this battle Coastal Sentry just missing the first attack again. So it be 20% miss chance then? So this is true or how the blind abilities work?? Yeah i dont know either so back to the battle due the missing attack my team cannot finish in round 3. this round just can killing opponent deeplurker. and as replacement my Demented Shark got beaten too.
Round 4 (Final)
Okay this is the end of the battle as you can see in the GIF above Flying Squid defeated by Coastal Sentry. So my Strategies work this time

Conclution
After experienced this battle i know that Coastal Sentry should not be undersestimated. This monster have very good status and can be the favourite attacker in some ruleset like Super Sneak,Equal Opportunity,or Melee Meyheim. Especially if the ruleset have high manacap. Overal in this battle my combination strategy is very good too. Even the opponent have higher level than me, with the right moment using Coastal Sentry can bring victory. And the combination Demented shark with Inspire abilites is very good to support Coastal Sentry melee damage. unfortunately this battle i am not using River hellondale too. with double inspire ablity,Coastal Sentry will have 6 melee damage and total 12 melee damage. it will just need 1 double strike attack from Coastal Sentry to beat down the tanker. If you want this card you need to play more and get more Daily and End of season chest to get high chance to get this card. This card cannot be traded for now until it will completed print out. So what are you waiting for.lets play and have fun fighting bots..upps.. fighting player of course to get this card.
