Heyyy yooooo
what's up Splinter Player around the world how are you doing? I am sharing my battle this time in new format of battle challenge that making best defence in Weak Magic ruleset that make armor shield is the best defence for all line up monster. And as far as i know using Water element or Life element still the best element in this ruleset battle. For the good news, Splinterlands has update the gameplay adding new edition card set called Rebellion edition it will be a game changer in the future, many meta will be change in modern format battle. And with this overpowered card in untamed card edition will be replaced.
Like in this battle i am encountered with player that already using rebellion card edition. I wonder why many people playing this game is like very easy beaten after rebellion edition update, that makes me more suspicious that many player using helper since after update the helper cannot be used right. If human playing it, it will still can maintain the winrate i guess even though untamed card edition gone out to wild format. Because i am human player that playing scholar account, it easier than before the update and my win rate going up eventually. Thats just strange for me, but yeah let's say they just adapting with new card without using helper. So before entering discussion in the battle lets see the ruleset first like usual
Weak Magic ruleset description is Magic hits armor first before hitting health.Add another layer of Protection to extend the life of your units.Shatter or Pierce any armor your opponent dares place. Usually after Immortalis summoner came out in Chaos edition, using Immortalis is still the best for this ruleset because Immortalis can give line up Shattered ability that can broke all the armor opponent have. And it will make own line up easily defeat opponent line up without worrying about the armor again. But this time in my battle that i share, the Earth element is cannot be used, so i need to find out how to managed with this ruleset. Somehow this ruleset can bring fortune on our side, but somehow this ruleset can bring misfortune, it depends with what card that we have. So, lets go to my strategy this time. Curious isn't it?
Strategy Phase
As you can see in the picture above this battle have 3 ruleset the first ruleset is Broken Arrows that means Both players cannot using range monster attack in this battle, the second ruleset is Aimless that means all monster will having scattershot ability and it will make range and magic monster attack randomly. The last ruleset is Weak Magic that means magic attack will attack armor first before attacking health. The manacap that can be used in this battle is just 40 which is so average and make hard to arrange the line up. And the element that cannot be used in this battle is Fire and Earth element. For me that playing in my scholar account that not yet delegated Immortalis this inactive of Earth element is something give me fortune. So i will not too afraid that opponent will bringing Immortalis and breaking my Armor. Even so, still if opponent bringing and arranging unlimited looping of armor with using Life element, it will be very troublesome for me. Hopefully that opponent not arrange the monster to make unlimited repairing armor. And this time i am using Water element because in Water element many monster with high armor in there and i can utilise this monster as a protector and attacker at the same time. So without further ado lets look my strategy in the table below
| Card | Position | Ability | Reason | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Summoner | +1 Speed +1 Armor | I am using this summoner because i see opportunity as a defence in water element that have many monster with high armor there,also using Kelya still give another benefit for my line up that can give 1 speed buff and adding 1 additional armor for my line up. Not only that water element known as a deadly element that can finishing opponent line up fast and hard to be beaten. Thats why i am choosing water element than Life element. | |
 | Frontline Tanker |    | Diemonshark is very useful to bring in this battle ruleset since the magic attack cannot hit directly to this monster health and attacking armor first. This monster having high health and high armor thats why this monster is the suitable one to be as a frontline tanker. Not to forget if the opponent using melee monster to attacking this monster, Diemonshark can counter attack it and give damage back by the retaliate ability. And if this monster health got hit the enrage ability will active and make this monster got buff in the melee attack and speed. Trample will active when this monster can kill opponent line up and can make this monster having additional attack in the next opponent line up. | |
 | Second Attacker and Debuff Support |    | I am using Flying Squid as a second attacker because this monster having very complex and useful ability that can holding my team line up can holding more longer. Blind ability will make opponent having chance to miss attacking my monster by 25%. With reach ability this monster still can attacking opponent frontline tanker and if my Diemonshark die and this monster replacing as a frontline tanker this monster can give counter attack by Backfire ability if opponent miss attacking this monster.Not only that this monster is having great status for the tanker too, high health with such ability. | |
 | Back Attacker |   | Pelacor Bandit is one of the great reward card in Water element. This monster is having great defence with high speed combined with flying ability that can make opponent melee and range monster will hardly hit this monster, in this case i am placing in front because this monster can helping attacking opponent Frontline and i am saving the last place for the better monster instead this monster, but with sneak ability this monster can helping my line up to give shock terapy on opponent line up. it will broke opponent line up if opponent did not predict that i am using sneak monster | |
 | Attacker |   | Riverboat Captain is very suitable with this ruleset, i am using this monster because this monster having blast ability that can helping my line up to make opponent losing the armor first before get hit, and with helping from the ruleset Aimless this monster can attack randomly that not stuck to opponent frontliner. And this monster having Affliction ability that can have 50% chance to make opponent that get hit by this monster cannot be healed again, i am pretending if opponent bringing triage monster ability. | |
 | Attacker |    | Deeplurker is still main attacker in my line up, with opportunity ability it will hunting opponent lowest health monster first if opponent did not bringing any taunt monster, also it guarantee that opponent melee attacker will get debuff from demoralize ability from this monster. Also the last ability that the best is Posion that can have 50% chance to make opponent that get hit by this monster get poison effect. | |
 | Back Defender |   | I am placing Noa The Just in the backline because i am assuming that opponent will bring sneak monster too and this monster can defence pretty well my backliner with having dodge ability combined with high speed. Lso this monster having rust ability that can make opponent losing 2 armor from their normal armor status. And it gives benefit to my line up monster more easier to defeated opponent line up |
So, this is my strategy this time. Simple yet deadly i think. With combination of all ability in my line up can make opponent line up pretty hassle. I am hoping that ability like blind,dodge can work properly. because usually using ability with having chance is very bad for me. Many RNG is cannot be used even using ability like that. Not function very well. Hoping this time can work.
Battlephase
As i predicted earlier this ruleset will bringing either using Water element or Life element. As i said before if opponent using unlimited looping of repair with combination of life element it will be hard to defeated. I am hoping that opponent did not using unlimited repair meta in this battle. If opponent using that i can say i will losing the battle since in my line up i dont prepare any repair ability.Okay lets see how the battle going shall we
Round 1
As usual in round 1 both parties got buff and debuff from both summoners and monsters. In my team got
- 1 Speed Buff from my summoner Kelya Frendul
- 1 Armor Buff from my summoner Kelya Frendul
In opponent line up got
- 1 Armor Buff from opponent summoner Grandmaster Rathe
- 1 Melee Debuff from my Deeplurker ability Demoralize
- 2 Armor Debuff from my Noa The Just ability Rust
- Blind effect from my Flying Squid ability Blind
- Non Attack monster got 2 magic attack from opponent Aves Sturgis ability Weapon Training
In this battle opponent mistake is forcing using Weapon Training on their line up. I know that Weapon Training got buff lately, but if forcing the line up with no condition to be used in the battle is not very good. Also i know that opponent maybe want to testing and trying out how to make new card edition Rebellion monster. But, it is okay, it feels like i got lucky in this battle because of the trial on opponent side.
After buff and debuff the battle started and first attack goes to my Pelacor Bandit defeated opponent Stitch Leech and after that my Flying Squid attacking opponent Uriel. Then opponent Pelacor Conjurer attacking my Flying Squid with magic attack. Following by my Diemonshark missing attacking Uriel. Continue with my Deeplurker attacking opponent Aves Sturgis and give Poison effect. And then my Riverboat Captain attacking opponent Albahoo Forester and gives it Affliction effect. Then opponent Corsair Bosun attacking my Diemonshark. Then Aves Sturgis attacking my Noa The Just and closing by opponent Albahoo Forester attacking my Deeplurker. Overall opponent attack is just attacking my Armor, but my team can give some effect and defeated one of opponent line up Stitch Leech and it will be my benefit from this round.
Round 2
After knowing that my team leading in Round one, then going to round 2. Of course that still my Pelacor Bandit attacking first and give some damage to opponent Albahoo Forester. But before that opponent Avis Sturgis got posion damage and still can make it alive this time. Then following by my Flying Squid attacking opponent Uriel and just damage the armor. Then opponent Pelacor Conjurer attacking my Riverboat Captain and just touching the armor. This time my Diemonshark hit opponent Uriel and make its armor gone, after that my Deeplurker defeated opponent Aves Sturgis this time. Then my Riverboat Captain missing attacking Pelacor Conjurer. Continued by opponent Uriel attacking my Diemonshark and luckily my Diemonshark still have the armor left so it redeem opponent huge attack to just armor break. This time my Diemonshark activated the retaliate ability but missing the attack. As i said before as usual the RNG is not pretty good for me. Opponent just having Flying ability can having high chance of got miss. but in my team opponent having blind ability lower speed but still they can hit me not missing the attack. Then opponent Corsair Bosun attacking my Diemonshark and because direct hit it will activated the Enrage ability. And this time the retaliate active too and succed hit opponent Corsair Bosun and break the armor. The last is opponent Albahoo Forese attacking my Flying Squid. So far, still my team are leading the battle. So lets go to the next round
Round 3
In round 3, still my Pelacor Bandit attacking first and defeated opponent Albahoo Forese. Then my Diemonshark attacking opponent Uriel and gives 6 damage which is a half of opponent Uriel health. then my combination of my Flying Squid and Deeplurker can defeated opponent Uriel and gives 1 damage to all my team by redemption ability. Then opponent Corsair Bosun miss attacking my Diemonshark.
Round 4
By looking of the line up in round 4 in the GIF above, i can say that my team win flawlessly. Opponent line up cannot hold any longer i think. Early attack is my Diemonshark attacking opponent Corsair Bosun and break the armor, after that my Pelacor Bandit attacking opponent Pelacor Conjurer and break the divine shield, after that my Flying Squid attacking opponent Corsair Bosun and following by my Deeplurker attacking opponent Corsair Bosun too.Then opponent Pelacor Conjurer attacking my Riverboat Captain and my Riverboat Captain missing attacking opponent Pelacor Conjuer. From this round you can see how bad my RNG was,my Riverboat Captain missing the attack and no Poison effect. Okay lets go to the last round
Round 5
Okay in the last round my Final attack from Diemonshark that defeated opponent Corsair Bosun then activated the trample ability effect make additional attack to opponent Pelacor Conjurer and then closing by my Pelacor Bandit attack and defeated opponent Pelacor Conjurer.

Unbreakable Armor
Conclution
After experiencing this battle, i can make some conclution that is if the earth element inactive, using Water element and Life element is necessary in Weak Magic ruleset battle. this 2 element is full of the monster that having high armor and high attack in all type attack, from melee monster like Diemonshark in water element,Deeplurker in water element, Nerrisa Tridawn in Water element, even the range attack like Sea Stalker in water element. Not only the attack that high also the health and armor are pretty good too. Thats why i am still recommend the first pick in Weak magic ruleset battle is water element first. Second option is Life element, in life element there are monster that having high armor and high status that very good such as a Uriel The Purifier, then Corsair Bosun, then Adelade Brightwing that can repairing any damaged armor, also there is having Iziar soulbound card that having taunt ability and martyr ability. And many more in Life element. But, if the Earth element active and can be used, i recomended to using Immortalis as a summoner because it will make your battle easier. because bringing shattered ability is make our line up pretty easy beat opponent line up.
