Hello Splinterlands players
It's another beautiful week, another amazing moment with the splinter last battle. This week I will be sharing my social media challenge of a ruleset call close range. I finally got to win today after playing for like 20 battles.
Here is my battle report challenge with the "Close range battle ruleset"
First the close range rulesets enable monsters in the first position to attack, the initial setting was that close range rulesets don't not normal allow monsters from the first position to attack but seeing this in this game changes the narrative and I was surprised when I saw this, interesting it was fun.
I have been playing games with close range rulesets but not in splinterlands. I don't really like this Ruleset because of how its team standing helplessly while the enemy keeps attacking is not really encouraging to me, sometimes I do feel sad when I lose the battle. This is just the limitation of the close range rulesets, the enemy monster take good advantage of it.
When I drew this rulesets, I had to some good cards with the earth element, this monster has the magic attack abilities, I had to choose this element because I knew my opponent will come with the water cards for attack.
My strategy was very simple, I didn't rent cards I needed to use the free cards in the Dec therefore to see how magic monster will fight in the close range I picked the VENARI KNIFER has my first monster has this monster when hit with a melee attack does two melee damage back to the attacker.
Seconded by REGAL PERYTON this is one of my best earth monster, it has a 25% bonus of evading melee and range attack from unit who do not have the flying ability.
Third monster was GOBLIN PSYCHIC: it has the ability of restoring the third heath to the unit in the first position in each round.

KHMER
MYCELIC SLIPSPAWN
ORC SERGENT
The battle lasted for five rounds, I was able to maintain my team with just lost of the MYCELIC SLIPSPAWN because it receive most of the attack in the battle and was not able to survive, all other cards were still standing strong, my GOBLIN PSYCHICwas doing a nice job my adding more healthy to the card standing in front which was the VENARI KNIFER, the VENARI KNIFER on the other hand was causing two damage to melee and range monster who attack him.
At the end of the battle was overwhelming seeing my team standing strong despite the attack from the enemy monsters. We won the battle with 4 monster standing. Despite the close range rulesets, a good and quality cards combination is a success to winning in this rulesets.
