Battle Details

Summoner buffs took effect and even before the battle began,my Gobalano Soldier attacked my enemy's last monster reducing the health to 3. The battle officially began with my last monster attacking my enemy's first and my enemy's fifth attacking my first and causing a blast effect on my second monster. My second monster healed and killed my enemy's first which gave my enemy's second monster +1 stats.

My enemy's new second monster attacked my first and my third attacked my enemy's last. My enemy retaliated by attacking my first monster with his last monster and I responded my killing the last monster with my fifth monster. My first and third removed my enemy's first monster's shield and my first was killed by my enemy's first.

My enemy's new third monster restored some shield to my enemy's first monster and round 1 came to an end.

At the start of round two, my last monster attacked my enemy's first while my enemy retaliated by attacking my first with its last monster which caused my second monster to be blasted. My first monster healed, attacked my enemy's first and got attacked by my enemy's second. My third monster killed my enemy's first and my fourth monster followed the same and killed my enemy's third monster who was now last.

No more attacks occured to end the second round.

In round three, I attacked first and second with my last and first monsters. My enemy retaliated with an attack on my first from the last monster. Attacks continued and my second monster killed my enemy's first monster to end the third round.

My enemy was ended in the fourth round with just 1 attack from me.
