Hi all!
In this guide I am going to show you what I do when faced when I'm faced with an poisoned battle. Ofcourse it depends on the amount of mana you receive to start the battle. I use Thaddius Brood as the summoner because he does -1 magic and -1 health at the start of each battle.
Death setup
I use Thaddius Brood as the summoner because he does -1 magic and -1 health at the start of each battle.
-Set cursed windeku (6) on P1 (the tank in the battle with thorns, so he does an additional 2 attack damage from every melee attack)
-Set riftwing (4) on P2 (riftwing has got scavenger, a monster with scavenger gains 1 health each time any monster dies, so in combination with the poisoned ruleset this works great, that is because riftwing acts as an barrier for our backline of monsters).
-Set silent sha-vi (5) on P3 (he is the 3rd monster in line and has a great melee damage of 3, besides this Sha-vi also got the 'sneak' ability which means he can attack from p3 and targets the last monster in the team.
-Set Magi Necrosi (6) on P4 (Magi Necrosi is an great monster with 2 abilities to help you win battles, the snipe ability which targets ranged, magic or monsters with no attack. Besides snipe Magi Necrosi also got camouflage, this means the monster cannot be targeted for attacks unless it's in the first position.
With the basic setup of thaddius brood, cursed windeku, riftwing and magi necrosi, you have an base mana cost of 20. Everything above this is great for backup monsters such as the earlier mentioned Silent Sha-vi or Dhampir Stalker (ranged attack monster with 3 damage each round.
Fire setup
If you encounter an lower mana cost than 20 in these types of battle I suggest you go with the following setup for an total mana cost of 13:
-Use Tarsa as the summoner (4), Tarsa gives +1 melee and +1 health to all monsters.
-Next use Forgotten one (9) as an tank, this monster is expensive at 9 mana but in these types of battles it doesn't matter how much monsters you have it only matters who is the last man standing. Forgotten one got an amazing ability called "Immunity" With this ability the monster is immune for negative status effect, poison is one of them... So forgotten one doesn't get affected by poison!
NOTE: Gold Foil is not necessary ofcourse.😄
