⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ attack type is MELEE, and it is part of the Neutral Unit. It cost 9-mana to use in battle , as a result, it will be an excellent card on deck for all Mid-High mana battles [to be fair, it depends on the ruleset, can very well be played in low mana battles too].
Let us delve deep into this amazing card to discover what makes him formidable. I am using a level 2 gold foil and he has 
⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ is a commanding force on the battlefield. His armor is enchanted with the ability to withstand the most powerful magical attacks, and even the most powerful enemies are no match for his huge, two-handed blade, which some claim was forged in the Realm of Nightmare. He lives for war, sifting through his foes and slaying them as he seeks out the greatest among them for single combat.
VOID ARMOR ability- When in battle, Magic attacks hits his armor before affecting health.
GIANT KILLER - When in battle, he has the ability to do double damage to enemies that cost 10 or more mana point.
⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ devoted himself to his training, determined to reshape his mind and body so that he would be unrivaled on the battlefield.
At level 1 This card has 2-Melee attack at 2-speeds, 8-Defense, 6-health, and the starting ability of Void armor. Even at level one, it has great defense and decent health, so will be very useful even in lower leagues.
level 3 The melee is later increased to 3, with 2-speed, 9-defense, and 6-health. Not mention the added Giant Killer and Demoralize abilities. Given it's 9-mana cost, ⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ increased Melee attack, and defense points makes it a very powerful Gold level warrior.
At Max level 4-MAX, however, This card gains additional power. Along with the added Deathblow ability, he gains 7 Health, while maintaining other stats from level 3. ⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ becomes very useful in battle at this level.

⚔️FINAL RESULT⚔️
LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ and TEAM OF MONSTERS Let out a roar of FLAWLESS VICTORY!!!🎉LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ BATTLE◀️ DO I LIKE THE ⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️?
LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️? 
I do like this card. At this Level, It sure has two very useful abilities and a decent 9 mana cost can be helpful in battles with medium mana limits.
⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ Void Armor Ability is useful and suits most rulesets, plus most players do enjoy the magic lineup, he would do well to survive their attacks. I am also very optimistic about his Giant killer ability. You can also employ him in front line when feeling less positive about your lineup, as his huge defense points does well to protect health from depleting fast, hence securing victory.
To be fair, I definitely am glad to have experienced his amazing Stats, and would keep making use of in any splinter battle since it is a Neutral card. ⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ has awesome defense, and health, that's already a slam dunk. This only demonstrates that if you play the any splinter and at decent mana cap, then this is a card to have on deck.
In summary the battles were exciting to watch and I will keep seeking more ways to but and max the card.
DID MY STRATEGY WORK AND WHAT LESSONS DRAWN FROM IT?
Yes, my strategy worked, maybe not idle as best. It was a good lineup and strategy for this 36 mana battle⚔️
⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ being a Melee attacker should ideally be placed in the front position because you'll want it attacking enemies and holding down fort. Also, if you add monsters with interesting abilities as support as in the case of these team line up, then it will be more difficult to target and kill allowing it cause max damage.
What I learnt is that, this card can be further enhanced with summoners that offer extra abilities like CHANSEUS THE GREAT and DIVINE HEALER.
⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ is no doubt a decent card. This challenge has surely exposed his usefulness in battle.
😊That will be all about my weekly battle with ⚔️LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR⚔️ as the themed card.
