**Monsters with the Sneak Ability** target the last monster on the enemy team instead of the first Monster, so I include them in most of my strategies. They do a really great job in some battles and my favorite Sneak Monster is the **Dhampir Infiltrator** as he has **the Double Strike Ability**.

**Battle Ruleset**
https://images.hive.blog/DQmXdS4ZtxCL9goUjPEXyfwJW8zwT7kM3zL9ewqfYW5bR38/ruleset0906.png
- **Aim True**: Attacks always hit their target.
- **Equalizer**: The initial Health of all Monsters is equal to that of the Monster on either team with the highest base Health.
- **Counterspell**: All Monsters have the Magic Reflect ability.

Our strategy with the opposing player was similar, and I think it can be more advantageous to use Sneak Monsters in such battles. While the opposing team had 2 Monsters with the Sneak Ability, my team had 4. I recommend you to watch this great and challenging battle from the [Battle Link](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_050559ca2202317e4afd0a78efb6b378&ref=rtonline) and you can also see how effective **Dhampir Infiltrator** is in battles.
