💎 A decoy in diamond 💎
Diamond Dragon being my only real overpowered (rented) card, my thinking going into this "Equal Opportunity" battle was ensuring that it would be my lowest health monster beside the Furious Chicken.
If the opposition went with magic, as I've written about previously, Diamond Dragon wouldn't last long. Otherwise, its huge amount of shields would make it a perfect distraction in this type of battle. It ended up fulfilling perfectly its duty.
Opportunity no more!
Dragon Jumper has always been an annoying card to fight against. However, the "Equal Opportunity" ruleset of this battle bestowed the Opportunity ability upon every monster on the battlefield; making the Jumper's most valuable weapon... just ordinary.
Healing no more!
Even though the 19 health points Gelatinous Cube was healing for 12 at the end, Captain's Ghost's Affliction made sure the win would be ours. It was actually this specific ability that made me purchase the Ghost. And, I don't regret it a bit. It has already swung so many battles in my favor.
Kitty no more!
In terms of Summoners, it was like David against Goliath. While one came with the starter deck (Drake of Arnak), the other was one of the most expensive of the game (Byzantine Kitty).
To be honest, I must admit that when I somehow manage to get the upper hand over one of these Legendary Summoners, I do get a little feeling of satisfaction. From time to time with a bit of luck, it does happen!

Hi @pinkoboe,
I've just seen that we would need a Level 2 store to enable Gladius cases in our guild, that's disheartening... Do you know how much it would cost to get there?
