The battle between blue-skin Slaad and Mia was at a stalemate.
On one end, Mia had superior agility to her opponent, which allowed her to dodge or divert most of his attacks. On the other hand, she lacked the heavy-damage attack at close range to inflict serious damage to the monster.
The blue-skin Slaad's instant regeneration was even faster than his peer. That's because he could focus and control the effects of his inherent healing spell, enhancing its effects at the cost of higher mana consumption.
This Slaad didn't have versatile spells anyway. All his attacks and defensive moves were predictable. But that didn't mean Mia would have an easier time battling with him.
The blue-skinned Slaad used his exoskeleton claws to launch attacks on Mia. She used her movement spell to get away from the claws in the nick of time, preventing a serious injury.
