There's Finally a Way to Beat Quora Towershead

For a long time I had trouble fighting well-equipped guys who used the unfair Quora Towershead Epic Gladiator card. It is so powerful, having both melee and magic attack, moreover it has Bloodlust that makes it even more powerful. And I lost almost every battle.

Deck building tutorial

These rules are suitable for battles with 19 mana and above.
So here's a quick guide on how to win Quora Towershead:

• Take a powerful tank card with good armor and high health, like Imperial Knight, Ulundin Overseer, Ferox defender or Diemonshark.

• Then you need to have health healing & armor healing cards, to heal your tank.

• It is better to have a card with Dispel ability like Goblin Firemage (Wild), Chaos Lackey (Modern) or Venari Spellsmith (Modern). There are only cards, which have a Dispel at the lvl 1. Of course, you can use other higher-level cards with Dispel.

• If you still have some spare mana, just fill in the gaps with whatever units you want. But it would be great to have a character that can attack the rear squads (Sneak or Snipe) and kill any healers. That is up to you :)

Succesfully built deck

And today I finally found the way to win against this Gladiator Card, have a look here:
Battle 2 - 33 mana
https://splinterlands.com/?p=battle&id=sl_04a8f955e1f4d48748e4ba048692121a

At the very beginning of the battle:

And almost won!

Of course, my opponent could have drawn another 7 mana card instead of Venari Knifer. I think the point was to kill Sneak cards that could attack from behind, for example against another Gladiator card like Katrelba Gobson.

Earth vs. Death

Death works very good in combo with Moxian Rebel card, which can create 2 more cards with magic attack.
