The ELVEN CUTTHROAT card costs three mana points and can be played several times throughout a fight. This card's neutral type allows it to be coupled with monsters of different types. Most importantly, because of its speed, this card has the ability to turn the tide of a battle by destroying the weakest monster behind the opponent line in the first round. This sneak's ability will destroy the opponent in the enemy's rear row. This card is part of the starter cards, so even if you don't have it yet, you can use it in battle.

This battle has a maximum of 26 points and has added reverse speed rules: (Monsters with the slowest speed attack first) and odd ones out (Monsters only with odd mana costs, may be used in battles). Only dragons, fire, water, and earth kinds are allowed to battle.

Based on the history of enemy battles that use the water type, I tried to make troops that would attack from behind. That's what I use some monsters for, sneaking upon them. The fight begins with the addition of a 1 HP bonus for all my troops. There is also a bonus of 1 magic attack and 2 shields from Venari Wavesmith in the enemy lineup.

The sandworm opens the battle by attacking the rearguard and destroying the enchanted pixie's bonus shield. Then the stone golems attacked the vanguard. All the other armies only attacked the front line's shields. Then the goblin sorcerer managed to kill the enchanted pixie. Venari wavesmith also reduces two stone golem health points. In this round, Elven Cutthroat only reduces 1 shield point.

The Stone Golem was knocked out of the fight in the second round after receiving a barrage of attacks. My attacks have failed to remove the Venari WaveSmith's. Venari WaveSmith's health is down to one point. Elven cutthroat was moved to the first row in the third round.

The Sandworm attacks the Venari WaveSmith's in the third round, eliminating 2 points from the enemy's additional shield. The giant squid quickly slew Elven Cutthroat, prompting the goblin sorcerer to step forward. My defenses were tearing, but the goblin sorcerer dodged one strike, sparing himself from the serpent of eld.

Round 4, the Crustacean King heals the Serpent of Eld. And this time, the goblin sorcerer wasn't as lucky as the previous round. He couldn't escape anymore. make the sandworm come forward. The Earth elemental also only reduces 1 point.

In Round 5, the Serpent of the Eld was successfully restored again by the crustacean king. But the Sand Worm managed to take the first opportunity to eradicate the serpent of eld. Make the crustacean king come forward. The Earth elemental attacks him and removes the remaining shield by 1 point. The giant squid attacks the sandworm and reduces its health by 2 points.

The 6th round is decisive. The sandworm managed to get rid of the crustacean king. This condition causes the giant squid to only stay as an easy target for attacks in the next round.

I expect the opponent to utilize the water type again in this battle. And in the fights where the Venari wavesmith is used, the enemy always positions the Venari wavesmith in the back. So I targeted Venari Wavesmith to make the shield bonus disappear. The enemy used the water type as I expected.

Therefore, I strengthened my team with team sneak. I pay less attention to the additional rules in the fight, namely reverse speed. At first, I entered Elven Cutthroat in the hope that he would attack first. It turned out that, with the reverse speed, he was the last to attack.

The elven cutthroat is placed to break down the enemy's shield so that larger sandworm strikes may directly target the monster's health points. The Elven Cutthroats don't play much of a role in this fight because they are the last to attack. Due to its reverse speed, the sandworm plays a significant part in this struggle. Because of its inexpensive mana and stealth abilities, I picked the elven cutthroat. This card is frequently utilized in my deck for a variety of situations.

Did my strategy work? I won this battle, but if it hadn't been for the sandworm's assistance, in the end, my strategy have failed. The reverse speed rule had escaped my notice. However, I was fortunate in that I was still able to win this battle.

Okay all, that's all I can share about the fight I played using Elven Cutthroat. Thanks for your support. See you in the next post. I hope I can contribute a lot to this community.
