(Left-to-Right)

1) Armored-Up: all monsters have 2 Armor in addition to their normal armor stat

2) Melee Mayhem: melee attack monsters can attack from any position

3) Odd-Ones-Out: only monsters with odd Mana costs may be used in battles

In Melee-Mayhem matches where Melee monsters can attack from any position, Jared Scar is one of the best/most-frequented choices. He has the ability to become an unstoppable force given the right setup and a little bit of luck.

BOTH teams have Jared Scar positioned securely in the middle of their teams. It's going to be a battle of the Hulk-Hippos.

Round 1 Completed

In the first round the teams exchanged blows and the opposing team's Jared Scar was able to secure a Bloodlust boost with the first kill on the battlefield. This isn't usually a good sign for the other team.

-- Fingers Crossed --

Round 2 Complete

In the 2nd Round we narrowly avoid another bloodlust boost from the Jared Scar, and land our own first Bloodlust on our Jared Scar.

At this point, I'm realizing that our choice in bringing the Truthspeaker for additional Armor and a Tank-Heal is going to important in giving us an opportunity at Victory.

Round 3 Complete

Both Jared Scars narrowly missed another bloodlust, as the teams traded kills in the 3rd Round.

It just seems too close to call, unless we take further time to freeze the battle to further theorize.

By the end of the 4th Round, the enemy team has their Jared Scar up front with very little health remaining. It seems that we will win this after all.

Jared Scar carry. EZPZ
