Hello splinterlands gaming fans!

I have some pretty good Monsters with lowest health  so I feel happy by doing battle with reverse speed Monsters. It was a similar battle but I got another battle ruleset `opportunity`, so I was happy that I could use Bloodlust ability Monster for this battle. There were two bloodlust ability monster that I can use for this battle. First is Flameblade from Fire unit and second is Jared Scar from Life unit. It was just 27 Mana gameplay so I decided to use 3 Mana summoner Lorna Shine with the combination of Jared Scar. No doubt Doctor Blight is in my favorite list, so how can I miss it. Thus I was ready with three Melee Monsters,  one range attack monster, one magic Monster and one Monster without attack.
To support my Melee and magic Monster,  I was using a Martyr ability monster. Almost my team combination was perfect for 27 Mana gameplay.

This is a Dice Edition rare Summoner with 3 Mana. This summoner provides Holy protection to all fellow Monsters. Nothing we get more from this summoner.

**BATTLE RULESET AND MANA**
 
It was just 27 Mana game play in which of five splinter Death, Dragon, Earth,  Life and Fire were active with Opportunity, Reverse Speed and Armored up battle ruleset. It was low mana gameplay, so my priority was using lowest health base summoner and monsters.
 Being opportunity ruleset I decided to use Bloodlust and piercing ability Monster with low health. I also given place to martyr ability monster just beside of Doctor Blight. Thus it was combination of 3 Melee, one magic, one range and single monster without attack.

**Reverse Speed**-

Lowest health base Monster will get chance first to attack and there will be enough chance for evading attacks. 

**Opportunity**-

All attacking Monster will get equal chance for attack from any position to the lowest health base monster.

**Armored Up**-

All Monsters will get two additional armor beyond their normal stat.

**TEAM COMBINATION AND CARD PLACING**..

It was a low Mana game play, so my priority was using at least three monster with low health, one Martyr, one scavenger ability Monster and a single monster with bloodlust and piercing ability. It was my plan, using Bloodlust ability Monster as it was opportunity ruleset. Using low Mana Monster was also the part of plan, so that my opposition team can target them and my bloodlust Monster could get enough chance for attack. 
For that I chosen Doctor Blight as magic attack, Venari Marksrat to support Blight by Martyr and Jared Scar with Bloodlust and piercing.

**PELACOR CONJURING**
<div class="pull-left">https://images.ecency.com/DQmXzv1M1hUfk6boHrpkCzpfZpssUP73dE6U2gA5QKcAiQ6/picsart_23_09_18_06_29_55_523.jpg</div>In short, it's the best card in my opinion. it is 2 mana card. It has `3 abilities`, including ~flying` `magic reflect` and `divine shield` ability. In my opinion the best card here for Armored up Battle ruleset.  It is because it has 8 health.
 My thinking was if my opponent comes with magic attack in low Mana game, then it could be helpful with magic reflect. It was opportunity ruleset, so there was less chance to target it as it has pretty good health. In fact it is a best card in two Mana, especially in low mana gameplay. 

**JARED SCAR**


<div class="pull-left">https://images.ecency.com/DQmV1J7eMJ4Jam3FKDugHsVLn42RbmRpWuDWTjLQ4KKraDz/picsart_23_09_18_06_30_16_076.jpg</div>This is Bloodlust Legendary ability monster from Life unit. After Grum Flameblade, it is single Monster that gains Gladiators ability. This monster comes with 7 Mana, 2 Speed, 2 Armor and 5 Health at level-3.
This monster has pretty good abilities like Bloodlust, Piercing and True Strike. All these abilities are superb for this Low health monster. Recently I started to play with this Legendary Monster especially in Melee Mythem and Opportunity battle ruleset. You will see the use of this monster. How it became dangerous after first attack.

**DISINTEGRATOR**
 
<div class="pull-right">https://images.ecency.com/DQmdxoF7KcsbVuwBhSLoNdmPCJvZAj6hi1w6H1nRigC7jP4/picsart_23_09_18_06_30_50_443.jpg</div>This one of the most useful Chaos Legion Edition common monster with Demoralize and Trample ability. There was single reason to use this common monster to get Demoralize ability in opportunity battle ruleset .
There was possibility to use Melee Monsters and due to opportunity so, I was using this monster in battle squad. This monster comes with 3 Melee attack 2 speed 3 Armor and 6 Health al level 6. It's Mana cost is seven.

**VENARI MARKSRAT**
 
<div class="pull-right">https://images.ecency.com/DQmdKSbL4ifk67puZausMjTbVVqbgbC6M5qFu619LQSvsBw/picsart_23_09_18_06_31_07_361.jpg</div>This is Soulbond reward card in 4 mana. It is a Range monster with Snare and Martyr ability.
This Monster comes with one range attack to speed and three health at level 5. This is a neutral monster. There was a single reason using this Monster to use it's Martyr ability. I placed at this monster at 4th position so that it can help Disintegrator and Doctor Blight with Martyr ability. 
Likewise it was opportunity battle rule set, so it was going to be useful for the team.

**DOCTOR BLIGHT**
 
<div class="pull-left">https://images.ecency.com/DQmU2gcMXxbXnTDy5FrsaTGPpidzhezXyZqz8gRkTZUhZTn/picsart_23_09_18_06_31_22_705.jpg</div>This is a Legendary card. Which I have used 3 level. It only costs 4 mana, does two magic attacks with one speed, and has only four health. I found this to be the most dangerous card in this battle. It has a total of 5 abilities. Four of his own and one he got because of the battle rule. Its abilities are as follows: Affliction, Camouflage, Poison, Scavenger and Fury. In affliction ability, when a card with Affliction ability attacks a card of the opposing team, then Affliction is applied on it, that is, then that card will not be able to increase its health. Due to the Camouflage ability, no card of the opposing team will attack it unless it is in the first position. Attacks in the Poison ability have a chance to apply poison, which does automatic damage to the target at the beginning of each round after. the poison is applied. In the scavenger ability, any card of the opposition team or your team will be eliminated, then it will increase its health.

**SHILVERSHIELD BARD**

<div class="pull-left">https://images.ecency.com/DQmYkBmycNAcCxnmLXCdmvHTqpEN8dZxKC4EyWUzezzf4PA/picsart_23_09_18_06_31_43_217.jpg</div>It is a single Mana monster from Life unit. This Monster comes with a cleans ability that I was going to use with armoured up. Actually there was no important role of this Monster,  just I was using to drag the attention of opportunity Monsters and also providing chance for Doctor blight to utilise Scavenger ability. 
This Monster comes with 1 Melee attack two speed and two health.
So it was my team combination with that I was in battlefield against strong lineup.

**DID MY STRATEGY WORKED WELL? WILL I TRY DIFFERENTLY IN NEXT TIME?**

To be honest my plan was utilizing Martyre ability and  Bloodlust ability. 100% I was succeeded in that. Bloodlust that totally destroyed to the opponent team. Rest of the task completed by Doctor Blight and Disintegrator with the help of Martyr. 
My plan was using two monster with seven Mana and rest of the monster in low Mana. I do not wanted that opposition team target to Jared Scar. As I wanted happened similar thing. Jared Scar got enough chance to increase their stats. When I finished the battle,  then it was 14 health and 9 Melee attack that was increased by Jared Scar. It was possible because Jared is a  Piercing and True Strike ability monster. 
Venari's Martyr helped Doctor Blight and magic attack helped to reduce the impact of armor.
