My Weekly Battle - The Gelatinous Cube Challenge
![gel cub.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmanW5nTPKCmM9pDsbSDdvm9vNoaL74ok1p6WnrxnGLdny/gel%20cub.png)

Personally I don't often use the Gelatinous Cube card because it is a card with high mana (6) and is purely defensive, but updated to level 4 or higher can be an insurmountable barrier for second lines.

Let's see in detail the pros and cons:

<p>

- high health that increases during the battle
- scavenger abilitiy: +1 health each time any monster dies
- great with earthquake rule of combat
- playing purposely cards with low health to quicky increase its health 
- as a Neutral Monster it can be played with all sources of magic
- cheap price ($ 0.022)

<p>

- high mana cost (6)
- strictly defensive
- useless with low mana cap games

I was lucky to find a match with the pefect ruleset: a high mana cap with earthquake, lets this Gelatinous Cube shake!!!

### My lineup:

<center>![Daria Dragonscale_lv3.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVL5oaaa7SGCMAhtYMyLY7JcZtM5UDRZ5Vg3t7XoaHasp/Daria%20Dragonscale_lv3.png)</center>
With this high mana cap match I can use Daria Dragonscale that gives a +1 melee attack and allows me to use dragon in combination with death cards

<center>
![Goblin Mech_lv5_gold.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTrbfeXemuHxsZxasA97DCZM9q7CrENy8ub5d14pUU5t4/Goblin%20Mech_lv5_gold.png)
</center>
The Goblin Mech with good armor and high melee attack will be a perfect "just one hit" killer 

<center>
![Gelatinous Cube_lv5_gold.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVzpZjEvbyW4xsQhxTatw3rW3iDEF3VSJtDDfVEBgiPiJ/Gelatinous%20Cube_lv5_gold.png)
</center>
The Gelatinous Cube with the help of the earthquake and the Goblin Mech will gain one health point after the other 

<center>
![Manticore_lv1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQrExnErsi3pqJuhZbbdmJmPZB6jY2gyV8uqzdMt9mCxi/Manticore_lv1.png)
</center>
The Manticore with the flying ability don't care about the earthquake at all, ready to hit the enemy when the Gelatimous Cube will be in the 1st line

<center>
![Cocatrice_lv1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmR7ZfPDypsoqocjGyH12JHbBzUKwezFKrHTC1z3voUjCU/Cocatrice_lv1.png)
</center>
The Cocatrice will quietly wait in the background, maybe partecipating to the battle at the end 

<center>
![Fire Spitter_lv1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQkYeCPLoqSAaKrpwNxhGFwdC3vVbr8CTS2TP9xJuwTX2/Fire%20Spitter_lv1.png)
</center>
The Fire Spitter will fly and strike some long ranged and heavy health point from the enemy 

<center>
![Octopider_lv3.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcs34t2yXjcTCZi2Bvnj4T5kMu4b5mChZJ56fzekVHoXU/Octopider_lv3.png)
</center>
The Octopider with long lasting life to resist to the earthquake and many arrows in his bow will go for a great hunting

### The battle:

With much more health of my opponent and with 3 cards against 0 with the fly ability it looks as an easy start.

![1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeawnDeMLYvYPphiv4ZEww69ekmZowxtdrvxxT4TV4PCD/1.png)

The battle is just at the beginning, a little warm up to crumble my opponent armor and waiting for the 1st shake.

![2.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaxem4L8QoGV3Gyvca6Gs1hYWrqYxyjhZQGvDwBX8EA2g/2.png)

The 1st and 2nd line already buried under the rubble, it's time to sweep the dust under the carpet.

Personalmente non uso spesso la carta Gelatinous Cube perché è una carta con alto mana (6) ed è puramente difensiva, ma aggiornata al livello 4 o superiore può essere una barriera insormontabile per le seconde linee.

Vediamo nel dettaglio i pro e i contro:

<p>

- alta vita che aumenta durante la battaglia
- abilità "spazzino": +1 vita ogni volta che un mostro muore
- ottimo con la regola del combattimento con terremoto
- giocare volutamente carte con vita scarsa per aumentare rapidamente la sua vita
- come mostro neutro può essere giocato con tutte le fonti di magia
- prezzo economico ($ 0,022)

<p>

- alto costo di mana (6)
- strettamente difensivo
- inutile con partite a basso mana cap

</p>
<hr>
<br>
Ho avuto la fortuna di trovare una battaglia con le perfette regole d'ingaggio: un limite mana alto abbinato al terremoto, facciamo tremare questo Cubo Gelatinoso!!
<br><br>

### Il mio schieramento:

<center>![Daria Dragonscale_lv3.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVL5oaaa7SGCMAhtYMyLY7JcZtM5UDRZ5Vg3t7XoaHasp/Daria%20Dragonscale_lv3.png)</center>
In questa partita ad alto mana cap posso usare Daria Dragonscale che dà un attacco corpo a corpo di +1 e mi permette di usare le carte drago in combinazione con quelle della morte

<center>
![Goblin Mech_lv5_gold.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmTrbfeXemuHxsZxasA97DCZM9q7CrENy8ub5d14pUU5t4/Goblin%20Mech_lv5_gold.png)
</center>
Il Goblin Mech con una buona armatura e un potente attacco corpo a corpo sarà un perfetto killer da "un solo colpo". 

<center>
![Gelatinous Cube_lv5_gold.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmVzpZjEvbyW4xsQhxTatw3rW3iDEF3VSJtDDfVEBgiPiJ/Gelatinous%20Cube_lv5_gold.png)
</center>
Il Cubo Gelatinoso con l'aiuto del terremoto e il Goblin Mech guadagnerà punti di vita uno dopo l'altro 

<center>
![Manticore_lv1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQrExnErsi3pqJuhZbbdmJmPZB6jY2gyV8uqzdMt9mCxi/Manticore_lv1.png)
</center>
La Manticora con la capacità di volare non si preoccupano affatto del terremoto, pronta a colpire il nemico quando il Gelatimous Cube sarà in prima linea

<center>
![Cocatrice_lv1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmR7ZfPDypsoqocjGyH12JHbBzUKwezFKrHTC1z3voUjCU/Cocatrice_lv1.png)
</center>
La Cocatrice in tranquilla attesa, per magari partecipare alla battaglia nel finale 

<center>
![Fire Spitter_lv1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQkYeCPLoqSAaKrpwNxhGFwdC3vVbr8CTS2TP9xJuwTX2/Fire%20Spitter_lv1.png)
</center>
Il Fire Spitter pronto a volare e colpire a lungo raggio per togliere punti vita pesanti al nemico 

<center>
![Octopider_lv3.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmcs34t2yXjcTCZi2Bvnj4T5kMu4b5mChZJ56fzekVHoXU/Octopider_lv3.png)
</center>
L'Octopider con una lunga durata di vita per resistere al terremoto e molte frecce nel suo arco farà una grande caccia

### La battaglia

Con molti più punti vita del mio avversario e con 3 carte contro 0 con l'abilità di volare sembra un facile inizio.

![1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeawnDeMLYvYPphiv4ZEww69ekmZowxtdrvxxT4TV4PCD/1.png)

La battaglia è solo all'inizio, un po' di riscaldamento per sbriciolare l'armatura avversaria e in attesa della prima scossa.

![2.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmaxem4L8QoGV3Gyvca6Gs1hYWrqYxyjhZQGvDwBX8EA2g/2.png)

La prima e la seconda linea già sepolte sotto le macerie, è il momento di spazzare la polvere sotto il tappeto.
