This week I brought a **Wild Ranked** battle where the rulesets will effectively eliminate all the **Melee** attack mosnters, so I had to pick a different approach when I was assembling my team. On top of that my opponent brought the strongest **Summoner** in this kind of ruleset, so it will be interesting to see how the battle will be. 😇

|Ruleset|Description|
|---|---|
|**Tis but Scratches**|*All units have the Cripple ability.*|
|**Keep Your Distance**|*You can not summon units with Melee attacks.*|
|||
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
The mana cap was 36, which is not that much, but "thanks" to the **Keep Your Distance** ruleset all the **Melee** attack monsters will be banned, so I can spend this little mana only on **Magic** and **Ranged** attack monsters ... or non attack ones? 😁
The **Tis but Scratches** ruleset doesn't really change much on the gameplay, because it means that all the monsters will get the **Cripple** ability, which means that all the monsters on the battlefield will remove one maximum **Health** from their targets if they attack them. 😇
</div>
<center>**My lineup and the decision behind it!**</center>
<center> **Summoner**
[Helios Matriarch](https://splintercards.com/chaos_rewardsb_helios-matriarch)</center><center>
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
The **Helios Matriarch** is an excellent choice for this battle, because I will use an amazing **Dragon** as my tank. She gives +1 **Speed** to all of her monsters and on top of that she will be able to bring one additional **Gladiator** monster into her battle. 😇
</div>
<center> **Main Tank**
[Voidmaw](https://splintercards.com/chaos_core_void-dragon)
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
The **Voidmaw** aka **Void Dragon** will be my tank for this battle and that is why I brought the **Helios Matriarch**. This **Dragon** has huge amount of **Speed** and the **Flying** ability to evade and dodge all the incoming **Ranged** attacks and his **Void** ability is just too good not use him against the **Magic** attack monsters, because he will halves all the **Magic** attacks targeting him. 😁
</div>
<center> **Protector**
[Nimbledok Explorer](https://splintercards.com/rebellion_rewardsb_nimbledook-explorer)
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
The **Nimbledook Explorer** cost only four mana and the main reason I brought him is his **Protect** ability, which will give +2 **Armor** to all of his friendly monsters as long as he is alive. 😆
</div>
<center> **The Weapons Trainer**
[Aves Sturgis](https://splintercards.com/chaos_rewardsb_aves-sturgis)
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
**Aves Sturgis** is a **Magic** attack monster and sadly his attack was reduced by the enemy **Silence** ability, but he is still able to give his attack to his adjacent non-attack monster. He also has the **Divine Shield** ability, so he will block **one** incoming attack entirely. 😋
</div>
<center> **Damage Dealer with Bloodlust**
[Helmet Kharafax](https://splintercards.com/gladius_core_helmet-kharafax)
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
**Helmet Kharafax** doesn't have any attack on its own, but he was lucky to have amazing friends next to him who provided him even two different kind of attacks. He also a **Gladiator** monster and with these attacks he might be able to increase his stats by one if he manages to kill his target. The **Void** ability will also protect him against the enemy **Magic** attacks quite well if it comes to that. 😉
</div>
<center> **Damage Dealer with Weapons Trainer**
[Berix Snakeye](https://splintercards.com/chaos_rewardsb_berix-snakeye)
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
**Berix Snakeye** cost a whooping amount of 10 mana, but he is well worth its mana tag, because he also has the **Weapons Trainer** ability like my **Aves**, but instead he gives +3 **Ranged** attack to the non-attack monsters next to him, which is pretty **OP** if you ask me. His **Void Armor** will protect him against **Magic** attacks as well, so they can not ignore his **Armor** as they would normally do. 🤗
</div>
<center> **The Repairer**
[Scavo Hireling](https://splintercards.com/chaos_core_scavo-hireling)
</center>
<div class="text-justify">
The **Scavo Hireling** cost only three mana, because he is a non-attack monster and such his stats are quite weak as well. His only one ability is the **Repair**, which means that he will restore some of the **Armor** on one of his friendly monster who lost the most amount of **Armor**. 😎

<div class="text-justify">
My opponent brought the **Obsidian** who is an **Earth** Summoner and her power is to give +1 **Magic** attack to her team. In the **Keep Your Distance** ruleset her power is extremely powerful, because their will be a huge chance that my opponent will bring a full **Magic** attack lineup. 😜
In the first round all of my monsters had to attack their **Mycelic Slipspawn**, because she had the **Taunt** ability and luckily my team had enough damage to kill her stright in the first round. Soon after I also lost my **Voidmaw**, which was not that good, because his **Void** ability was soaking up quite a lot of damage and the enemy monsters had just much of that! 😅
In the beginning of the second round I have lost my **Nimblebook Explorer** as well and I was lucky to manage to hit and kill their **Regal Peryton**, because he had quite a lot of **Speed** and the ability to **Fly**, which makes him to be able evade the **Ranged** attacks.
It was head to head until this point of the battle, but the round was not just finished yet and I lost my **Aves Sturgis** before the end of the second round.
My team had a bit of disadvantage starting the third round, but at least my team killed their **Blackmoore Wildelf** and **Mad Kaboomist** quickly, before they were able to deal damage. Thsi was purely because my team was quicker, which meant a lot at this point. 😇
The **Svavenger** ability on my **Kharafax** was amazing and he became my new tank with quite a lot of **Health** and managed to survive this round against their six damage easily.
In the next round my team killed their **Mushroom Seer** and their **Wood Nymph** couldn't do much alone aginst my three remaining monster and they won this battle for me! 😊
