Splinterland's - Undead Minotaur (Weekly Battle Post)

This week's monster is the Undead Minotaur. I like the card only for its double strike, which is great in matches where its melee only or rule set with sneak. Here is one battle where I used it to win!

The Battle

The rule set is limiting summoner's abilities and melee only monsters are allow to be used in battle. Since the mana was set to 26 and all splinters are allowed I went with Death Splinter. I felt that out of all the splinters I have the best deck with Death.

My Formation

I went straight toward Undead Minotaur as my lead because it had double strike. The Grump Dwarf with reach attack while three sneak attack monsters in the middle of the pack and finishing off with Undead Spirit. Basically my thought with Undead Spirit was in case my opponent used any monsters that would attack my rear formation I would have a solid tank in the rear. All monsters besides Undead Spirit would be able to attack in every round which gave me a total of 7 melee stat in attack.

My Opponent's Formation

My opponent leads of with Goblin Mech followed by Rexx, Assassin, and fills up with Furious Chicken. The monsters they use is limited to how much they can attack. Since Rexx can not perform any attack until Goblin is taken out there is supposely 9 mana dead weigh in the formation.

The Battle Results

The match was closer than I imagine. Goblin Mech took out my Minatour in two rounds, but not before I reduced health of Mech down to where my Dwarf was able to make the kill. My Dwarf was then defeated by Rexx, but my three sneak monsters held off Rexx. My Undead Spirit remain intact through the match. link..
