I did not know that I inspired @mermaidvampire to play SteemMonsters but that was fun to read it in her blogpost. 
In a comment I promised to tell her my basic strategy in this game. I am confused often and really do not know why some things happen. But this is my basic steps. 

**HEY YOU - THIS POST HAS A STEEM(MONSTER)BOUNTY - COMMENT AND GET A CHANCE TO GRAB IT)**

**Choose Colour**
I most often play green. The strategy behind that choice is simple. Green is a nice colour. 
But every colour has there own benefit. I can not really see some is better than other. It depend which card you select how this will effect your game.

**Choose a Tank**
The first card is always a "tank" for me. A card with a lot of life. I have two different favourites :
Rexi - 9 life and a really hard fist to fight with . Can hit with a power of 5
Flesh Golem - 10 life AND he can heal himself. So maybe 14-15 life. But he has a weak punsch.
With a tank in front you defend your other cards more (I think...)

**Throw-cards"**
So what wil I have behind the Tank? I almost everyday choose good cards that can throw magic or axes.  It is like the battlefield where you have strong infanteri in front with archers behind...
This cards I had yesterday when I won 9 times in a row.

**copy and paste**
This strategy is well known. Just look at the top 10-20, Can you copy and have same cards as them? They know more than me and you and have absolutely a good plan. So sometimes I try to copy and paste. 

**Many or few cards**
Is it better to have 3 strong cards than 6 weak?
I am not sure about that but I think that depend by the mana-number. With 17-18 mana I like to have more powerful cards. With 25 mana I lika to have more cards. But I have no clue what is right. 

**Do not practise - just FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT  - to paaaaaaaaaarrrrrttttyyyyy"**
I do not like practisemode. I never do. "Try, Loose and Learn". That is how I play, that is how I invest and make steps i my company. You can not feel the pain and happinies in practise-mode. Go for it - And kill them !!!

That is my strategy. And as I use to say...

"The most important thing is not to win - it is that your opponent should loose"
