I thought the opposing player would adopt a similar strategy in this battle and I can say that I determined my strategy accordingly. I chose Lorkus, one of my favorite Archons. A multi-element Archon with tactics, Lorkus can call forth units Death and Fire Units. Lorkus rants +1 Melee Attack to all friendly Melee Attack Units and +1 Magic Attack to all friendly Magic Attack Units. And he grants Life Leech and Affliction, or Fury and Trample to two chosen Units. Lorkus is really powerful and grants Units some great abilities that can be very useful in battle. And I gave Grimbardun Smith and Venka the Vile the Life Leech and Affliction abilities, and I believed that with these abilities they would be much more effective in this battle. And since I thought the opposing team would mostly have magic attacks, I put Void or Magic reflect abilities in the front lines. **Battle Comments** ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/rtonline/23tbiDxfgNChZ5jct1XqQgxVn7gH9fiVM7UWH7qY5iCf8aUAW5NqPXg45TfcUa6fVCNB4.png) To be honest, the opposing player's strategy was also very good and I was especially amazed by Heloise the Hollow's performance. To be honest, the opposing player's strategy was also very good and I was especially amazed by Heloise the Hollow's performance. For a moment I thought she would never be completely destroyed because she was resurrected five times and almost every time she was defeated she caused great suffering to almost everyone who defeated her. ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/rtonline/23tS2gAMLP4qnr1mkN6NLEaBoWekdN6ioPBrY2vMpy5JtRsMNW2uofMZ92DyujRCA8a6L.gif) Heloise the Hollow's counterattacks are truly brutal and most interestingly, since she has the Spite ability, she has a 100% chance to counterattack when defeated. Heloise the Hollow really fascinated me in this battle and I added it to the list of cards I needed to add to my deck, I'm kicking myself for missing this proma card, hopefully I can add it to my deck in the future. ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/rtonline/EoAURnAE14JMfGnTscgTjmsxw2vnAJ66cTRUof4kGuZ8jYWV3LXYP4P3SogoV76xPZs.png) And Heloise the Hollow was destroyed for the 5th time in round 3, never to be resurrected again. She was finally completely destroyed, but she caused my team a lot of suffering. Although the opposing team seemed to have a higher chance of winning, especially the Void and Life Leech abilities were very useful in this battle and despite having higher health, the enemies could not defeat Grimbardun Smith. And together, Grimbardun Smith and Moxian Rebel destroyed the enemies. ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/rtonline/23tRvMtfwd8s8SRUfgNpZqzx4s1JCN1hZ7tTHYZ3wbPw3x9f2JYjrufNN4XvyVerKiVDf.png) The battle lasted 16 rounds and my team managed to win.
