It was an Equal Opportunity ruleset with Armored Up, fighting a level 6 enemy with my level 3 summoner is no joke. There is no way I stop a chance if I were to go melee or range attack head-on.
Therefore it was a matter of being strategic and hoping to get a victory out of it. My plan and the strength of my strategy are built around Djinn Oshannus and Riverboat captain with Vernari Marksrat as the catalyst for my plan to succeed.
My strategy turned out to work impressively, I tried it on another opponent and also got away with a win for the same ruleset.
I will take us through my lineup.

I had TORRENT FIEND as my momentary Tank, knowing it only has 2 health, it is bound to be eliminated quickly and also would keep the enemy monsters' attention away from my strongest monsters earlier on in the fight.
XENITH MONK held the frontline for a little while following Torrent Fiend's elimination. Xenith Monk comes in with Heal ability and with a health of 6, it stayed in the fight till the fourth round of battle.
DJINN OSHANNUS is a beast on its own without a Martyr boost, it is high in speed, and health with Void and Phase abilities. Oshannus occupies the third spot in my lineup with initial attacks on the opponent's Pelacor Bandit.
Bandit's elimination came in the second round through Oshannus despite a Triage help on the Sneak monster that should have seen it eliminated earlier.
The Martyr ability of VENARI MARKSRAT has been one I don't hesitate to use if I have the chance. In this battle, Marksrat's role is very vital for Oshannus and Riverboat to get ruthless.
The fight took a turn that had my monsters on the edge from the second round following Venari Marksrat's elimination. An elimination that boosted the magic damage of Oshannus and Riverboat. From that moment things got out of control for my opponent.
RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN can be a pain with the Blast ability, give it a magic boost and it can get very ruthless and Marksrat helped in achieving that. It became a matter of Oshannus with speed with 3 magic damage and Riverboat with blast ability and 3 magic damage. They were unstoppable!
Like Torrent Fiend, HARDY STONEFISH was eliminated earlier on in the battle. Both are of the lowest health on the battlefield and they worked well for my lineup to divert attacks to them earlier in the rounds.
From a lineup that looked like I stood no chance, my opponent was blown away, I wonder if the high-level summoner players don't get pissed off losing to lower-level summoner players. 😃
