Following is my video link from youtube:
My oppenent is weaker than me but he has good battle lineup. I am lucky to win this match. He chose right monsters but he still need to think speed in his calculation. Speed is not everything but sometimes It can decide a victor.
Battle Details:
Rule is Super Sneak so I chose Zintar Mortalis to reduce enemy' melee damage but he chose Mylor Crowling to deal return damage to my melee monsters. So his summoner is better than me. I want to choose like him but I don't have Mylor Crowling. Choosing Sneaker in Super Sneak rule is a bit weird. But this is the best choice in terms of speed I think.
I add Chicken in the front line as a scapegoat. It is also a Gold Chicken I will get 10% bonus. This is a good choice and I always use chicken as a scapegoat if conditions are favor. Haunted Spirit will be the last finisher in Super Sneak because enemy's melee attackers will attack my rare line first. And then I added two sneakers. I know it is questionable.
And then Twisted Jester to deal decent ranged damage. This cards is a must to take out enemy's ranged and magic monsters that will possibly attack Haunted Spirit. Haunted Spirit is needed to survive until the battle ends. I put the Creeping Ooze in last position. It can be placed in front line but I preferred to put in the last position.
My Skeleton Assassin and Elven Cutthroat are different from the others because I used SplinterStorm theme. You can buy your skin here: https://splinterlands.com/?p=shop&tab=skins
If you are a fan of different skin this is a good time to spend Dec for Skin. You will get double airdrop point for every Dec you spend for the Skin. That means you need to spend 22500 DEC for the SplinterStorm common set and you will get 25000 airdrop points.
Tell us about your lineup. Explain why you put each card in that position and why they are a good fit with the ELVEN CUTTHROAT.
I explained about my lineup and the reason I chose this particular monsters in the above paragraph. I have to choose to neutral monster when I want to get a double effect. I don't have another sneakers in Death splinter. Elven Cutthroat has hight speed and the same damage as Skeleton Assassin. Only speed is the different but it is not really matter because I also choose Creeping Ooze.
Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?
Yes. It works. But I will not try differently because Elven Cutthroat is only suitable as a Sneaker.
Do you like the ELVEN CUTTHROAT? Why or why not?
I liked it that why I upgrated this card to Lvl 5. It can be used to make double sneak attack. And if I used with Life Splinter I can used triple Sneak attack. Its mana cost is relatively low so it is suitable especially in low mana matches.
