# <center> **My Lineup's Explanation** : </center>
<div class="text-justify">
Rules :
Before we discuss about the formation, here is the rules for this match
Broken Arrows : No range attack monster are available, so it's only about melee and magic! Suitable for camilia sungazer to help against melee monster
22 Mana Cap : Medium low mana cap that suit the camilia sungazer which cost low mana !
Splinter available : all splinters are available.
</div>
| Position | Card | Ability | Strategy|
| -------- | -------- | -------- | -------- |
| Summoner|| -1 physical attack| Really important monster on this match, because enemies are only have physical or magical option, and i believe my enemies will use melee attack, so i use this summoner |
| Tanker | | Void | As an alternate of possibility that enemies might use magic monster, i use this legendary monster as my tanker. With high hp, void and speed, this monster are expected to stand for long period against magic or melee monster (magic are nerfed with void while melee are struggling against his high speed). Suitable with camilia sungazer for decreasing magic and melee attack |
| 2nd Monster || Reach | With just 3 mana cost, this monster could give 2 damage within 2nd position thanks to reach ability. With solid tanker like djin oshanus, he could land many damage from there. |
| 3rd Monster || Opportunity | The newcomer from riftwatcher edition. Surely have a big bargain. With just 3 mana cost, he have opportunity and could land 2 damage. Could reap enemies support or hitter with lowest health. Put him on 3rd position as the safest position (from front and sneak enemies), so he could land more damage. |
| 4th Monster || Heal | To anticipated enemies focus on hitting the tank with pysical, reach, or magic spam, i set this merdaali as the support. With heal ability, he could help djin oshanus to survive more round on the match. Put her on 4th position to help prevent the hitter if enemies use sneak monsters. |
| 5th Monster || 0 mana | As all other 0 mana cost monster, this monster is used for wasting enemies attack, so the hitter could have more turn to hit enemies. Put him on 5th position to prevent monster on front getting damaged by enmies sneakers. Not put him on 6th position because i want to split enemies that have sneak and opportunity. Because the sneak would hit 6th monster and the opportunity would hit this one. |
| 6thMonster | | High Speed| With just 2 mana cost, this monster have 6 health and 5 speed which cause him very ideal for wasting enemies attack. Put him on last position to waste enemies sneak attack, especially because this monster have high speed, so i got chance for evading enemies. And because physical monster that have chance to attack from any position is mostly sneak type monster, i really hope this monster would do his dance and evade enemie. |

The battle scene are shown on gif below:
<div class="text-justify"> I'm glad that my strategy are right. The bait is right for waste enemies with opportunity that have high damage. The backline with high speed could evade some attack. My phisical monster also doing it right and Djin Oshanus land great magic damage with support of merdaali's heal. </div>

<div class="text-justify">
What i like about Camilia Sungazer: </div>
<div class="text-justify"> What i like about this summoner is her mana cost is low, she just cost 3 mana cost, which cause her suitable for low mana cap ruleset. Her buff is also very effective against enemies that loves to use melee monster such as all sneak strategy or opportunity, and the debuff from summoner is can't cancelled by purify ability. </div>
<div class="text-justify"> </div>
---
<div class="text-justify"> What i don't like about Camilia Sungazer : </div
<div class="text-justify"> On silver league or higher league, with higher mana cap usually happened, her ability were not good enough since there is many summoner with more than 1 buff/ debuff that could create vary strategy.
</div>

<div class="text-justify"> When to Use Camilia Sungazer : </div>
<div class="text-justify">
I suggest you to use this summoner when you think enemies would use many melee monster, especially on all melee ruleset or when melee monster could attack from any position. You can combined her with monster that have shield and demoralize to nerf enemies attack into 0 !. </div>
</div>
---
<div class="text-justify"> When to Camilia Sungazer : </div>
<div class="text-justify">
I don't recommend you to use this monster for situation that you and your enemies can't use melee monster (surely), and on matches with high mana ruleset, because there is many option summoner that have more abilitie and could boots your squad more. </div>
</div>
# <center> **Conclussion** </center>
<div class="text-justify">
Camilia Sungazer is Great summoner for low mana cap ruleset, especially when neither arrow or magic are unavailable, so enemies would go with melee monster. Combined with mmonster that have shield ability and demoralize, they could nerf enemies attack into 0. But this summoner is not suitable for higher league such as silver and above, because the manacap are often on medium-high which suitable for legendary summoner that have many great skills. </div>
