Today's Give Away
*Comment something you like that starts with the letter C (crab with melted butter).

Today's Tip-Melee Only
For the melee only rule set there are two main things to consider to ensure your victory.

First you must realize that any melee card without a sneak or opportunity that are not in the first tank position will be worthless until they reach the tank position so limiting these to as few as possible is key. So naturaly use as much sneak and or opportunity cards as possible.

Second- makes sure you use either a tank with heal or a high health/shield card with the Shield ability. up front and a card with the shield or thrones in that back position. For the most part you tank and back position will take most of the damage so protecting these cards is key.

Extra tip- Picking the right summoner is important depending on the second rule set if there is one.
Fire gives you an extra melee point on each card so this can add up while death can reduce the enemy's melee by on each card. life can give you at least one extra round based on its shield but might not have the best offence.
Water dose nothing for you from a summoners point but has some great melee cards to use with good ability's like sea monster upfront and Spineback turtle in the back. Earth might not be great but it dose have Brownie which gives plus melee damage to all melee cards and Stonesplitter Orc which can be a beast in the last position due to its retaliation ability.

That's all for today my friends see you tomorrow!
