Battle ruleset
Going the distance requires use of monsters that won't necessarily need to have close contact with an opponent monster, range monsters are best suitable for this position as they can attack an opponent from distance. The ruleset is quite straight forward only used monsters with range attacking abilities as stated one need know their monsters and how to line them up since most range attackers can only attack from distance they loss their attacking abilities once they are in from position.
With that been said one need to be careful when choosing their lineup monsters for this ruleset.
