This week’s battle challenge focuses on the Disintegrator. Disintegrator is a neutral monster with melee and demoralize ability. It can be used in most of the battles. It is mainly very effective in all melee rulesets. I'm going to showcase one of my fight using this monster.
THEME: DISINTEGRATOR
Edition: CHAOS LEGION
Rarity: COMMON
Element: NEUTRAL
Attack: MELEE
Abilities: Demoraliz
The Disintegrator Overview
Disintegrator is common neutral monster from Chaos Legion edition. This monster has melee attack, as a result it can only attack from the front position unless the battle ruleset has any special ruleset. Disintegrator has a special ability at the 1st level that's called Demoralize (reduce by 1 melee attack of all enemy monsters). It is very solid card with decent amount of HP, armor and overall good stats.
Key abilities:
- Demoralize - Reduces the Melee attack of all enemy Monsters by 1. It is available from level 1.
- Knock Out - Does double damage when attacking an enemy that is stunned. Disintegrator unlock this ability at level 5.
- Trample - When a Monster with Trample hits and kills its target, it will perform another attack on the next Monster on the enemy Team. The Trample ability often works best when the first two Monsters on your team both have it. It can be used from level 8.
- Retaliate - When hit with a Melee attack, Monsters with Retaliate have a chance of attacking their attacker. You have a 50% chance of activation. If you need it you must have max level.
The ruleset of the battle
- Heal Out - All healing abilities are removed from Monsters and Summoners.
- Up Close & Personal - Only Monsters with Melee attack may be used in battles.
- Mana Cap of 36.
- Available Splinters - Water, Earth, Life, Death and Dragon.
Usually for Up Close & Personal Ruleset the strategy will be to place some monsters with armor. It is recommended to use abilities like retaliate and thorns to make additional attack.
Round 1
I chose Dragon Splinter for this battle due to Djinn Chawala thorns ability. I also add Death Splinter which has Cursed Windeku with this ability. Disintegrator has Demoralize (-1 melee for opponents monsters) that's why I put him in the middle. My plan was to keep him alive for very long time. In addition I use Crypt Beetle at the back with Shield ability.
Is it enought to win the battle? Check it below!
Round 2
This line up can keep my monsters alive for many rounds. Disintegrator plus Crypt Beetle with shield are super effective. My opponent cannot make any dame to make backline monsters. Deeplurker with Opportunity ability is the only monster that make damage to my team.
Round 3
Uraseus is dead due to low HP. Deeplurker killed him in two rounds. Now It is the turn for Crypt Beetle. This monster with support of Disintegrator can take many hits. My front monster with thorns remover armor from my opponent tank and second position monster. I can finally hit directly to opponent HP.
Round 4
My sneak monster killed Pelacor Bandit in this round. My tank was hit and also dies but made also damage from thorns.
Round 5
In this round I killed two of the strongest monsters on my opponent team: Diemonshark and Flying Squid. Now It is the time to finish rest of them. You can see that my Crypt Beetle is still alive.
Round 6
My opponent has low attack so cannot make lots of damage. I still have my tank with thorn. In this ruleset it help a lot. He hurts himself by attacking me.
Round 7
Finally, I killed Deeplurker in this round. At the end of round I have two monster whilst my opponent only one.
Round 8
We both have Disintegrator as a tank monster. I have also Silent Sha-Vi with sneak attack. It is only matter of time to win this battle.
