Is this the Most Underrated Steem Monsters Card in Beta?

in #steemmonsters6 years ago

Steem Monsters Strategy Guide.png

The new Neutral Steem Monsters have totally changed the deck strategy since being released in Beta. And I think the most underrated card is actually common.

So which card is it?

Well, you might be surprised to know it's a Monster Card that doesn't actually have any attack power.

I guess that's why he's called the Peaceful Giant.

And unlike other tanks in the game this one is made to last the duration of the game once leveled up and teamed with Life Support.

Just take a look at all that health as a fully leveled up monster. Surely he's going to take some beats before he's defeated. And he only costs 5 mana to play.

So if he can get the aid of one or two life support Monsters it'll be a slow grind to extinguish him.

So the obvious Summoner to use would be Tyrus Paladium with a Divine Healer and Level 2 Angel of Light.

Then with the last 5 mana you could play the Air Elemental at the rear.

So the Team would look like this...

Summoner - Tyrus Paladium (Lvl 8) (mana 3)
1st Position - Peaceful Giant (Lvl 10) (mana 5)
2nd Position - Divine Healer (Lvl 6) (mana 3)
3rd Position - Angel of Light (Lvl 2) (mana 4)
4th Positon - Air Elemental (Lvl 3) (mana 5)

I know there are only two attack cards in this deck, but combined they have 4 ranged attack points on offer each round.

And remember you're using the Peaceful Giant as a 'Wall' so you've got all day :-D

I'm certainly interested on giving this deck a try when the battles begin for real.

Defensive Weakness - Sneak attack from behind, but with Dodge and health recovery built into this deck the Air Elemental might just hang around long enough to see the battle through.

Your thoughts?

Totally think this card is underrated too. Might just be a brick wall at the end of the day but if it will never go down, it can be your best way to stop a melee attacking team or provide you a way of buying good time to kill your opponents other creatures. Only downside to him is if they somehow kill your angel of light and he gets feared to the back. But none the less. The Peaceful Giant stands as a great defensive wall for some strategies.

Yep, If melee can't get through they'll be slowly picked off by the ranged attacks

Yeah. But if both you and your oppenents tanks are just the Peaceful Giant that would turn out to be an interesting stalemate.

Mirror matches will be interesting to see how it plays out. But the giant will die eventually without supporting life healers.

The fact that he's a neutral is also a plus so he's not restricted to one splinter

From the first moment that I saw the stats of the Peaceful Giant, I knew this would be a good, stolid, indestructible yet sacrificial lamb, who can hold out against any onslaught from the enemy. I hope to be able to level my Peaceful Giant up to make use of it in this way, but with the eta's requiring higher BCX levels, it is unlikely that I'll be able to.

He is overpriced right now but, after a few 100 thousand packs have been opened people will want to sell at the common price.

Yes, that is what I'm hoping for.

To the question in your title, my Magic 8-Ball says:
