All units in the lineup gains the knock out ability giving each lineup monsters a certain ability that can boost their attacking strengths in this ruleset there are no limit to what monsters to be used in the arena as one could come up with magic, range, melee and so on such ruleset makes it difficult for players to second quess what their opponents will be likely coming up with.

Simple tip for this ruleset requires a summoners to come up with a stunning monster which can help trigger the knock out ability using high slashing attacking melee and range monsters can boost one chance of winning as well.

Heavy hitters ruleset is very straightforward but also need good battle strategy to win as these battle can require use of all abilities monsters but specifically using a stunning ability monsters can be a boost for a summoner.

When the knock out ability gets triggered an opponent can take more damage which means it can be best adviced to use stun monsters when taking out an opponent but for this ruleset both team focus on using magic attacking monsters for their strategy.

My lineup was a bit floored the moment I added range attacking monster at the backline since we can't predict what our opponents will be coming up with we need to be always ready for unforeseen obstacles.

My tanks was best suitable for this ruleset and my riverboat captain was also in good position my strategy was to land good attacks on my opponent tanks with my magic monsters which directly affect an opportunity monster health my tank and my second lineup and fourth lineup monsters were suppose to do this task while my healing monster kept supporting all my tanks.

The battle was heated up but in the end my opponent still managed to beat me by my strategy.
