BATTLE Weekly Challenge! ANIMATED CORPSE

Hi everyone,
In this post I will show how I completed the weekly challenge to use the animated corpse card, I will show the rules of the challenge, my **explanation **for choosing the monsters and the why of their respective positions.

The card cost 4, has 6 life and 2 damage meele, between death and neutral cards of the same cost is the one that has the greatest capacity to tank, I believe that isn't the best card cost 4 in deck death because there is the twisted jester. It would be the best option for a tanker with a cost of 4 or below, it is not used very much as it is commonly replaced by haunted spirit that has one more hp and the ability to heal. Maybe if you compare the animated corpse and cursed slimeball set (total cost 5) with the haunted spirit it has a better chance of being used, especially if the opponent starts attacking with a high attack creature, so cursed would tank this main and fast source of damage, while the animated corpse would come later and tank a lot better.

In this specific challenge with high manacap and no rule (standard), I followed the following thought, use the greatest amount of high cost cards, but being careful not to be all melee, and as many of the high cost cards are melee, I used the summoner zintar mortalis, to try to reduce the melee damage pressure, the last card in the composition would be a prismatic energy, as it would reflect magic damage, could attack freely and would protect a damage source in fifth position (Mantoid).

The Animated corpse's function as the first tank would be to tank the high damage that would come initially and to allow time for another monster that would come attacking later, in position two I put Goblin Mech, as it would help to take down the first tank and if it was a monster with 1 or 2 shield would still deal additional damage to its health.

In third position I put another tanker, but this one thinking to protect me from possible magical monsters, in case Bone Golem was chosen, and I closed fourth position with a Sand Worm as a damage source, to try to clean the opponent's backline, finishing so both with the frontline, attacking with the Goblin Mech + Prismatic Energy, as with the backline that normally doesn't have much health or armor, using the Sand Worm.

Rules: Standart
ManaCap: 99

So the final composition would look like shown in the image below:
