Rusty Android... Not so useless after all.

in #steemmonsters6 years ago (edited)

With all of this talk about burning "useless" cards, I have made it my personal mission to try to figure out how to use rusty android.

Above is a screenshot of my very first attempt at using rusty android in a match, and to my great surprise, I actually won!

Here is the match if you want to watch it.

Rusty Android may not be as useless as thought... Now to be fair, in this particular match, I probably could have used a Pieceful Giant instead, and would have cost 1 less mana.

But this does not change that fact that he acted as a perfectly suitable tank against this lvl 3 white team. And I think that against another team, the 2 melee and reflect could have outweighed the extra 2 health I could have gotten from using a lvl 1 Peaceful Giant.

Either way I am going to continue to mess around with these so called "useless" cards to see if I can make useful combinations.

What do you think?

I think you forgot one thing: The Rusty Android will be filled up with 2 live every round, but the peachfull giant with 3 live, because he have 8 live and get one from summoner and if monster have 9 live filling up increase to 3.

Yeah. This is a good point. But I still think that I may find a situation where rusty android is a superior choice. The problem is that I may not ever be able to predict when that situation will arise even if I am able to Identify it. Thanks for the input.

Yes Situation is clear: If you expect magic attack the point is that Rusty Android has magic reflect, also at level 1. So this is usefull ability if opponent really use magic attack.
