Splinterlands battle mage secrets : Odd Ones Out

Hello Splinter nerds

This week Splinterlands battle mage secret is Odd ones out

A ruleset in which only monsters with odd mana can be used, all the even mana monsters are ruled out and unavailable to be used in battle.

Along with this rule, we were given another two rules which are:

• Keep your distance: Monsters with melee attacks can not be used!

• Heavy hitters: All monsters have the knock-out ability which gets triggered whenever a monster is stunned.

Four Splinters were available and for a few seconds, I was confused about the right splinter that would lead me to victory. Still, after pondering for some seconds, I decided to use a dragon summoner Akane with the Ambush stat which means two of my monsters will have the chance to attack before round 1 starts, I wanted to take advantage of that.

Guess what the opponent used?

The opponent came prepared, it was as if he knew I was going to come up with a lot of magic monsters and he defended well against it by using Void dragon with the Phase, flying, and void abilities supported by two healers!... it would have been difficult for me to take down but thanks to the monster with the stun ability that I used... let me take you on a tour of my set up and why I used that formation.

My Formation

Chaos Agent

It was a 29 mana cap battle, I placed Chaos agent as a tank as I predicted some of the opponent monsters would miss it and just as predicted his Oshuur and Spirit missed it in the first round giving it the chance to survive till the second round but it didn't end there as there was more misses and it was able to last till the end of the battle

Noa The Just

Noa is a nonattack monster but it was able to gain attack from the Daarg deadblast weapon training ability, it has a high speed which makes it suitable to be placed in the second position and it only misses once in the battle. In case the opponent team is protected with armor, it has a rust ability that will get rid of 2 armor.*

Daarg Deadblast

Daarg is a magic monster with weapon training ability, it also has swift which helps to increase my team's speed, This is one of the reasons the opponent finds it difficult to take down my chaos agent, it also has triage to boost the health of the rare monsters in case the opponent used sneaky or a monster with scattershot.

Merdaali Guardian

My heal tank that supplies health to chaos agent, it also benefitted from Daarg weapon training stats.

Sultry Barmaid

This monster made it easy to eliminate the opponent's tank, if not that it stunned it, it would have been difficult to kill it and my chance of winning would be slim.

Angelic Mandarin

Last but not least is Angelic with the silence ability which helps to weaken the opponent's team magic attack.

It was a flawless victory, thanks to my formidable team.
