For this week the rule is Counterspell. The rule of counterspell enemy units that attack with magic receive damage back. In this rule, to avoid return damage, avoid using magic attackers. Typically, when this rule is in effect, expect the opponent to use melee attackers. More players use melee attackers because melee damage is usually higher compared to ranged attackers. Therefore, if your playstyle is defensive, use defensive cards against melee attackers.

If ever you need to use a magic attacker, you can use monsters with the reflection shield ability to avoid being damage by magic reflect. Since there are only a limited number of monsters with the reflection shield, you can also use monsters with the void ability to reduce the damage from magic reflection. Alternatively, avoid using monsters with high damage because the higher the damage, the greater the damage they'll receive from reflection. Also, avoid using monsters with the silent ability because the lower the opponent's damage, the less damage they'll receive from reflection.

1st Position

PELACOR MERCENARY - Melee attacker with fly ability. The large health of Pelacor Mercenary convinced me to make him a tank in battle.

4th Position

LINK TO THE FULL BATTLE

In our lineup, both of us are avoiding the use of magic attackers. I believe my opponent is also avoiding the reflected damage of magic in case they use it. I observed that the blind ability of Fungus Flinger and the flying abilities of Pelacor and Vulture are useless due to Kitty's true strike ability. All of my opponent's attacks will hit me with 100% accuracy. Even the reduction in my opponent's speed isn't much felt because of the +2 speed provided by Kitty. At first glance, my opponent has a significant advantage because they are faster, all their monster's attacks will hit me, and they also have a healer upfront from Kitty. However, I have identified a disadvantage that they could exploit to defeat me.

My opponent's backdoor is open due to the rule of being unprotected, with no armor to block Katrelba Gobson's attack. And the monsters positioned behind my opponent have low health, making them easy targets to trigger Katrelba Gobson's bloodlust ability quickly.

In round 3, even though Flesh Golem has double heal, combining its heal ability with Kitty's heal is not enough to survive because of the significant boost in Katrelba Gobson's stats from the bloodlust ability. The battle ended in round 3

My strategy of using all melee attackers has been successful because I was able to avoid the damage from the counterspell.
For offensive attacks its better to use a melee attacker than a ranged attacker.
If ever you need to use a magic attacker, you can use monsters with the reflection shield ability to avoid being damaged by magic reflect.
You can also use monsters with the void ability to reduce the damage from magic reflection.
Avoid using monsters with high damage because the higher the damage, the greater the damage they'll receive from reflection.
