A Cornealus & Katrelba Combo
With all the amount of battles, I have put in Even Stevens ruleset happened to be rare, this battle was the only one that came through for me within the last 48 hours, so I told myself whether I win or lose it is going to be the battle I use for the social media challenge.
Only monsters with even mana cost may be used in battles.
I have no problem with this ruleset, I have cards capable of putting up a good fight and even better when it is without Lost Legendaries and of course Lost Abilities which is the ruleset I dislike most.
So with Cornealus pairing up with Katrelba without ignoring the Protection ability of Akemis The Beer, I was able to get away with a victory.

With the Protection and Halving ability, I had ARKEMIS THE BEAR placed on the frontline as my Tank, the protection ability of The Beer was very useful against my opponent's Scattershot attacks.
The Halving ability of AKEMIS helped in reducing the melee damage from Antoid Platoon and Ferox Defender, so credit to The Beer for those abilities against high-speed attacking opponent.
CORNEALUS thrives in battles of this kind, it normally would sit at my backline defense but I am throwing it randomly in my lineups lately to discover other ways in which it can cause problems for the opponents, it was attacked mostly in the third round of the battle but survived due to its high health with the Heal and Thorns abilities.
We can't talk about CORNEALUS without looking a the Lore
No one knows where Cornealus came from, Ferox Defender felt the magical power of Cornealus from an attack in the fifth round that left Ferox weakened for Katrelba to finish off.
KATRELBA GOBSON was busy, wasn't she? She is a trouble maker and she thrives at it, leave your backline exposed and she will derive pleasure in causing problems without control.
Fortunately for Katrelba, those Scattershot attacks weren't aimed much at her which was a fatal mistake for the enemy monsters because the longer Katrelba survives on the battlefield the more she becomes someone else's problem as wished by her father Rock Gobson.
In the fourth spot in my lineup is FUNGUS FIEND with the role of taking a hit from Opportunity or Sneak monsters. It turned out FUNGUS FIEND didn't have to worry about Sneak or Opportunity monsters but the Scattershot struck twice and had it eliminated in the second round.
CLOCKWORK AIDE comes in with a lot of Armor coupled with Armor Protection for Akemis The Beer, it was fairly protected to some extent. It provided Swift ability for the team but went unnoticeable considering the high speed of my opponent.
With a bit of luck, victory was mine.
