Since a new has started, there is also a new challenge awaiting us.

Today our MVP will be the "Wave runner".

Lineup

Since the water splinter is used mostly for magic damage. I use the wave runner in low mana battles.

In the following match, I used the "Serpent of Eld".

With 4 speed and dodge, it is a good card against the normal melee tanks in bronze. The only counter to it would be magic since magic would hit 100%.

Therefore I used "Bortus" to reduce incoming magic damage.

In the following match, I battled a nature deck, but look by yourself:

With the speed and the dodge elder was able to dodge 2 attacks which gave us a pretty free win.

Conclusion

I wouldn't use melee monsters over magic monsters. Water splinters work better with magic monsters and water also has the best magic damage dealers in my opinion.

However, I had fun trying to win a game with Wave runner even though it cost me some of my ratings ^^
Hopefully, we will see each other next week.
