Prelude
Hello everybody, it's time again for Share Your Battle. Very busy week for me, but I am still here to share. However this time round, I haven't been able to find a significant fight done via Mycelic Morphoid to share. But don't worry, I will be sharing on the favourite card I play on earth splinter, Unicorn Mustang.
Thoughts on Unicorn Mustang
This is the image that comes to my mind when I look at Unicorn Mustang.
Free running in the plains and grassland, this Mustang takes the distance and take down all its foes.
Let's examine the base stats of Lvl 1 Unicorn Mustang
| Mana | Attack | Health | Speed | Armour | Ability |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | 3 (Melee) | 10 | 4 | 0 | Void |
Bronze League - Health + 1
Silver League - Attack + 1, Health + 1
Gold League - Health + 1, Magic Reflect
Beyond Gold - Attack +1, Piercing
High health, high speed, high attack, void. Soak it all up and let's see how much can this mustang soak and savage its opponents.

Rules
Silenced Summoner
Mana Limit: 19
Lineup
| Splinter | Mana Cost | Position | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wizard of Eastwood | 3 | Summoner | Silenced summoner. Choose lowest mana summoner to maximise mana for other cards |
| Unicorn Mustang | 8 | 1st | Favourite Earth Splinter Tank. Speed, attack, health and void. |
| Fungus Fiend | 0 | 2nd | Padding for backline |
| Khmer Princess | 2 | 3rd | Cheap magic card |
| Hunter Jarx | 6 | 4th | First time trying this card. Wanted to try it out as I was doing snipe quest. |
| Total Mana: | 19 |
Opponent Lineup
- Summoner - Wizard of Eastwood
- Position 1 - Hill Giant
- Position 2 - Failed Summoner
- Position 3 - Magi of The Forest
- Position 4 - Wood Nymph
- Position 5 - Khmer Princess
- Position 6 - Mycelic Morphoic
Prediction before pressing rumble
2 very different lineup. But I am confident I have the edge because Mustang will take care the 3 magic cards of the opponent.
Let's get ready to rumble
Round 1, Everything holding up well with opponent Hill Giant on the brink of being taken down.
Round 2, Hill Giant down, Failed Summoner also sniped by my hunter. We should be on track to victory with Mustang leading the way.
Round 3, All that remains is Wood Nymph and Mycelic Morphoid.
Round 4, Everything cleared, victory secured!
After Thoughts
Mustang shines in this match and I believe shines for matches when there is an array of low hitting magic monsters are they will just end up scratching Mustang instead of damaging it.
Really no regrets always putting Mustang in the frontline most if not everytime when I play Earth Splinter. At level 1, it is already doing really amazing, I cannot imagine when it gets stronger at higher levels when it reflects magic. Low hitting monster could end up not damaging it and self killing themselves. Mustang really can hold up the line and do serious damage with its high melee attack as well.
How to improve further? I probably might be looking to own one copy of it for a start and to make it a part of my collection. Amazing card to have and always reliable, dependable to take you ahead like a true Mustang.
