## Battle Summoner

<center>![Lyanna Natura_lv3.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWrThTLMEYYHgBTG4HM4A5Baer6Hb3W8kwy1ybLbJ1oD8/Lyanna%20Natura_lv3.png)</center>
I choose **`LYANNA NATURA`** as a Summoner for this battle, which is beta edition Rare Earth Summoner. The ability of this Summoner is that it increases `+1` health of all Monsters. I don't play much with this summoner because my earth deck cards are not yet upgraded to my desired level.

## 1. FLESH GOLEM

</center>
In the first position, I used **`FLESH GOLEM`** which is a common Earth Monster. It has a **`Heal`**(Restores a portion of the Monster's health each round) ability. I used it in the first position because of its healing ability and 10 health. I have upgraded it to level 3 for the healing ability and brought 5 more cards which  will upgrade it to level 4. 

## 2. ORC SERGEANT

In the second position, I used **`ORC SERGEANT`** which is a Melee attack Common Earth Monster. I used it in the second place because It has a **`Reach`**(Melee attack Monsters with the Reach ability may attack from the second position on the team) ability. I have upgraded it to level 4 for -2 Melee damage and will upgrade to level 6 for **`Inspire`** ability when I level up my summoner to level 5.

## 3. SCREECHING VULTURE

</center>
In the third position, I used my most loving Earth Monster **`SCREECHING VULTURE`**. I love this monster because of its abilities **`Flying`** and **`Opportunity`**. I always use it in my battles when I am playing with the earth summoner because of **`Opportunity`**(may attack from any position and will target the enemy Monster with the lowest health) ability. I have upgraded it to level 4 for -2 melee damage.
  
## 4. WOOD NYMPH

In the fourth position, I used **`WOOD NYMPH`** which is a common magic attack Earth Monster. It has a **`Tank Heal`**(Restores a portion of the Monster in the first position's health each round) ability. The magic attack Monster directly attacks on health instead of armor unless there is no change in the rules. My strategy was that it will restore the health of Monster in the first position. I have upgraded it to level 3.

## 5. JAVELIN THROWER

</center>
In the fifth position, I used theme of the weekly challenge**`JAVELIN THROWER`**. I used it in the fifth position because it is a ranged attack monster and it is better to use it in the last positions. Today I bought one for myself.

## 7. EARTH ELEMENTAL

</center>
In the last position, I used **`EARTH ELEMENTAL`** which is a ranged attack Rare Earth Monster. I also like this monter because costs only 3 mana and at level 4 it gain healing ability and gives -2 ranged damage. I will soon buy level 4.

## ``Did your strategy work?``
Some of my strategies didn't worked for me because my opponent had used legendry death summoner Mimosa Nightshade but the victory was still mine. 💪  💪  💪

## ``Do you use the JAVELIN THROWER often? Why or why not?``
No, I have never used **`JAVELIN THROWER`** in my battles and it was my first experience with this monster. I have seen this monster in other players battles and was planning to buy one but you know **I am always late.**
