2	Berendain	If you don't have Shrieker, you can try substituting in your choice of magic pet with strong damage against flying pets. Shrieker is the most reliable, but pets like Servant of Demidos and Eldritch Manafiend can work too. It should have more than 266 speed in order to be faster than Runehoof (when he is affected by Eyeblast). Servant of Demidos is an exception, because of Siphon Anima. The TD script will work up until you bring in your third pet, if you are attempting the strategy without Shrieker. If you have multiple breeds of Sanctum Cub, use the one with the most power.

1 / 3

Low XP

Breed

RNG

Not every strategy can be bullet proof. This is one of them. You might have to restart it, since there are some random elements that increase the risk of your pets failing. Don't blame them, please!

TCG

This strategy is using pets obtainable from the Wow Trading Card Game (TCG) or the auction house for potentially high sums of gold.

Shop

Level 25+

You can use this strategy to carry a low level pet to give it experience.

Tricky

Some instructions are more difficult to follow than others. That's exactly what you might find in this strategy!

Script

The strategy offers a Script that can be used with the Pet Battle Script addon. You can copy the script by clicking on the button to the left of the pets.

Unobtainable

At least one pet in the strategy cannot be obtained anymore. If you have it, congrats!

I'd recommend swapping Hawk Eye for Adrenaline Rush, that way you gain a speed boost to make better use of Thrash and be more likely to kill Slugger.

1. Adrenaline Rush
2. Thrash
3-4. Lift-Off
5. Adrenaline Rush
6. Thrash (Slugger usually dies here for me)

Runehoof comes in

7+ Thrash until dead, usually only get 1.

The rest proceeds as normal.
