The Battle
The above battle took place in the novice league. Mana cap was 22 and the two game modes in play where Fog Of War and Up Close And Personal. For the battle shared above I decided to go with the line up of SILVERSHIELD ASSASSIN / SILVERSHIELD WARRIOR / COCATRICE / and SILVERSHIELD KNIGHT.
My opponent also picked the Life Splinter and their team line up was identical to mine with the expection of our team placement being different. In the end it was my opponent who came out victorious as their team placement was superior to mine. In fact even though I picked the same monsters as my opponent, I wasn't able to even defeat one of their monsters in battle. Their decision to put SILVERSHIELD ASSASSIN in first position was my undoing.

SILVERSHIELD ASSASSIN
The Assassins do not openly wear the insignia of the Order of the Silver Shield, for they take on the dirty work, the kind of work that is best forgotten after it is done. Armed with small jagged daggers and throwing knives, Silver Shield Assassins kill with the silence of a nightfall over the Khymeve Meadows. They never take prisoners.**Lore taken from official site.
Sneak: Targets the last Monster on the enemy team instead of the first Monster.
Posion: Attacks have a chance to apply poison, which does automatic damage to the target at the beginning of each round after the poision is applied.
Double Strike: Monster attacks twice each round.
