It Is A Reverse Speed Ruleset For Goodness Sake!

If this was other ruleset aside Reverse ruleset, my opponent't lineup no doubt would have won the fight by wiping me oou in no time.

Djinn Oshannus, Axemaster, with a poison ability Deeplurcker are terrifying enough to get the job done in a brutal manner.

But no, my lineup got the job done in an upsetting manner by sticking to the rules of the fight and most particularly the Reverse Speed ruleset.

Now the Reverse Speed ruleset doesn't mean you should attack me with all you've got, it means cards with the lowest speed are most favorable for this fight.
Reverse Speed: Monsters with slowest speed attack first and have the highest chance of evading attacks.

This ruleset is a complete opposite to the high speed cards and if you ignore the rule, you pay dearly and that was the outcome for my opponent.

As for me I pulled off a sweet victory.

My Lineup

TORHILO THE FROZEN'S low speed of 1, the rich health and armor with the Void ability often makes it my favorite Tank for the Reverse Speed ruleset and not to mention the high melee damage it has at level 3.

This is one of the rulesets that Torhili thrives at and it was evident in this battle even though it had to deal with the Forcefiled ability of Djinn Oshannus that only takes a damage from 5 and above attacks.

NERISSA TRIDAWN offers no ability but the high magic damage with the speed of two and high health makes her a suitable card for this battle and she did well delivering an attack that took eliminated Oshannus.

With a magic damage of 3 and Affliction ability CAPTAIN'S GHOST occupies the third spot in my lineup. Aslo with a speed of 2 that suitable for the Reverse Speed ruleset.
I anticipated and Obsidian lineup that might have a Tank Heal so Captain's Ghost Affliction was going to come useful but it turned out my opponent opted for Kelya Frendul.

RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN comes in with Blast ability with a speed of 2 and 5 health, being an Aimless ruleset, the blast ability was very efficient and worked in favor of Riverboat Captain.

VENARI WAVESMITH is the only card I have in my lineup with a speed that isn't suitable for the Reverse Speed ruleset but for the Armor Protection ability if offers my lineup it was worth adding it to my team selection.

Except for the attack on WAVE BROOD from Deeplurcker, Wave Brood had a nice fight with no other attacks that came its way, though it was poinsoined by Deeplurcker but it was nothing to worry about due to the high health of Wave Brood and with the battle wrapped off.

So victory was mine in a battle that looked like my opponent was most likely a bot.
