Hello everyone, have a nice day and good battles. This time I will share with you a wild battle from a tournament I participated in. In this battle, only units with ranged attacks could be summoned, so I chose one of the best archons to fight them.
The water Lir Deepswimmer will grant my units the return fire ability, so when they are hit by ranged attacks, they will reflect 50% of the damage dealt to their attacker. Lir will give the Bindled effect to enemy units, so they will have 15% chance of missing their own attacks. And additionally, my units will have +2 armor.
In this battle, in addition to the Going the Distance modifier, there are two more. The Explosive Weaponry modifier, which grants all units the blast ability, allowing them to deal 50% of the damage they dealt to adjacent allies of the target. And there is also the Odd Ones Out modifier, which only allows units with odd mana on the battlefield.
My opponent chose to use the archon Scarred Llama Mage, which grants +2 hit points to its units. It also removes the negative effects on its frontline ally each round, and when there is only one unit on its team, it will gain the Last Stand ability, so it will gain 50% to all their stats.
In the first position is War Chaang, who will attack thanks to its 2 melee attack power. It has the Retaliate ability, which grants a 50% chance to counterattack when attacked by an enemy melee unit.
In the second position is Giant Squid, which has no abilities. I summoned it because it costs 5 mana, and I didn't have many options.
In the third position is Sniping Narwhal, which has the Snipe ability, so it will attack the first non-melee enemy unit that is behind the first position.
In the fourth position is Goblin Chariot. This goblin has no abilities, like Giant Squid, but it will attack faster since it has more speed.
In the fifth position is Axemaster, who will attack twice per round thanks to his double strike ability.
And in the sixth and last position is Grenadier, who has the Oppress ability, which allows it to deal double damage to units that don't have attack.
Battle
In the first round, Axemaster defeats the enemy human, Child of the Forest. Then, my War Chaang defeats the enemy Grenadier. After that, my Giant Squid defeats the enemy Goblin Chariot.
In the second round, the enemy War Chaang with the Last Stand bonus ability, unfortunately had no chance against all my ranged units, so it was defeated at the end of the round by my Grenadier.
Full Battle
It was a quick battle, since my ranged units have much more attack power than my opponent's. I didn't expect that the opponent opted to choose Llama, but luckily for me, their strategy didn't work; anyway, it was cool to see the elephant War Chaang with the Last Stand ability.
Definitely, Lir Deepswimmer is one of the best, if not the best, in battles where only ranged units are allowed; his abilities that he grants are designed to counter them.
