Battle lineup
CURSED WINDEKU My first lineup monster tank is a death element monster with thorn ability if my opponent happens to come up with melee attacking monster as tank then my thorn ability monster can cause more damage on my opponent tank when they attack.
TENYII STRIKER a fire element monster with sneak ability this monster attacks opponent monsters from backline making good opening on opponents sides.
SILENT SHA-VI Another sneak attacking monster making good opening from behind is a good battle strategy as most summoners prefer to make their tanks and backline defence very good.

HELHEIM DEMON a taunt monster with magic ability this monster will always take all attacks from opponent monsters giving lineup monsters opportunity to attack.
TINDERLOCK a very good backline supporting monster with range ability it also gains additional opponent monster health stats when it becomes the last standing monster.
Battle strategy
Both opponent did came up with good lineup monsters in the battle arena but only one summoner will be declared winners at the last round.
From my lineup it can be seen my lineup consist more of sneak ability monsters, my thanks a thorn ability monster will do double damage on my opponent tank which make me focus more on my opponent backline monster my range attacking monster is quite good with its attacking ability a single attack from my backline monster can also cause good damage.
Having three sneak monster and a taunt to take first few round attacking damage will make my sneak monster a bit formidable to attack and quickly take out my opponent backline monster.
My strategy did work out well and at the end of the last round I managed to take out my opponent.
