So now it has been another week, so another weekly challenge. I don't think I would be the only one. But anyone else out here who are fascinated at the cover photos? Many a times we always use those cards base on how they look in the NFT. We normally don't see their whole body. For instance Portal Spinner itself. I never knew how it all looked like. But now, I vaguely can understand why it is a ranged attacked, and why it has the ability "Scattershot", as the portals open any and everywhere!

But hey, let us not get distracted from the weekly challenge

Match Condition

Explosive Weaponry
Lost Legendaries

My Battle Strategy and Cards Placement

So now this is a pretty tough one. Being a high mana match up, there were plenty of room to play with. With Chanseus The Great as my summoner, I love to have Goblin Mech as my tank dishing out damage, and Shieldbearer at the rear absorbing the damages. This greatly emphasizes on the effect of my summoner as it repairs armours as well as heal backline monsters! My remaining monsters are there to dish out as much as I can. With explosive weaponry as match condition, I love to put monsters with Snipe, Opportunity or Scattershot as any damage in the middle column of the opponent would deal the highest amount of damage.

Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?

Oh yes, yes it did! Now I would say not only do I require strategy, a fair bit of luck comes in. Using monsters with "Scattershot" abilities, you have absolutely no clue where it will end up at. You can be pretty unlucky and hit all the monsters that you wish not to, or be really lucky and hit the right monsters. In my case, I wasn't absolutely lucky, but enough for me to win this! Everything went as planned, and I was indeed able to dish out a fair amount of damage to the middle column of my enemies' lineup, placing huge emphasis on the Explosive Weaponry match condition. It was a fun match, a cool win!

MVP - Chanseus The Great

Every turn without fail, this summoner did his job with Armour repairing, Heal, as well as even resurrecting the first monster that died. My entire formation existed because of this summoner, so naturally this win is credited to the summoner as well.

Do you like the Portal Spinner? Why or why not?

Like, certainly! Use, perhaps... not? Haha. There is too much element of randomness in this, and it is not guaranteed that the Scattershot ability will work to your favour. Fun, it sure is! But reliability, hmmm....
