Blast is a nice ability and one of my favorites, it gives additional damage to the monsters adjacent to the target monster. I usually like to blast using the magic legendary Ruler of the Seas.
I've added the screenshot of my battle and you can also find a link to watch my battle below. )
What was my Lineup?
It was a 24 mana battle with Unprotected and Broken Arrows rulesets, I'll explain each monster used in the battle below.
So, let's move forward.
I went with Alric Stormbringer Water Summoner, it gives +1 Magic attack to all friendly monsters. I like to increase my magic blaster ROTS so I went with this one.
My first monster was Old Legendary Lord Arianthus, due to its many useful abilities, it's the best tank. As ruleset was broken arrows so it helped me to magic reflect my opponent's magic attacks.
In the second place, I used the Albatross level 6. I used it to heal my tank but it got killed in the first round so it didn't help me for the reason I used it. lol
The third position was covered with Ruler of the Seas. This is an old reward legendary monster that comes with Blast, Swiftness, and Silence Abilities at level 3. Its swiftness helps to increase sped and attacks first in normal rulesets and blast gives additional damage to the monsters adjacent to its target. And the Silence ability reduces 1 magic attack of enemy monsters.
Next, I used level 6 Sabre Shark, it's a common beta monster with sneak ability. I used it in this battle to attack the last monster of my enemy and also there was broken ranged so I only could use either magic or melee attacks.
In fifth place, I placed the Spirit Miner, another reward legendary with magic attack and contains Dodge, Swiftness, and Blind abilities at level 3.
Lastly, As usual, I used a 0 mana reward monster Furious Chicken to waste my enemy's sneak attacks. Though there wasn't sneak used by my opponent.
Did your strategy work?
Yes, it worked well and I won this battle. My opponent used higher-level monster than me but still, its team was weaker.
Do you use Blast often?
Yes, I use it often, but I used Magic blast more than other attacks.
