Hi gaming world!
Wishing you a very lovely Sunday..
This is my weekly battle share challenge for #splinterlands gaming platform with the theme **GRIM REAPER**

source

Splinterlands gaming season going to be end within one and half day. Before it I want to publish my battle share...
Feeling good that some change occurred in battle rule like poison, cripple and opportunity.. I learn it very quickly especially in poison situation. Definitely in this rule we have to go with high Mana monster. Previously few opportunity miss to participate with blast, stun, thorns, opportunity theme battle. Anyway this is the part of life. Sometimes we wish to do something good but circumstances feel opposite to us..
Once again going to share low Mana battle in which two condition applied.
First we cannot use heal tank ability, if we use then it will be ineffective..
Cripple ability that was applied in this battle..
I want to won this battle, so that I can make a post for weekly battle share challenge. That is why I decided to choose weak opponent because I do not want to lose my rating as it is one day to go to finish the season..In this battle, I focused more on card placement so that I could face the opposition team better.
Now have a look about today's theme card -#GRIM REAPER

source

This is one of the best range attack reward monster from #Death splinter having **affliction**ability with level one.
Splinter- Death
Edition-Reward
Rarity- Rare
Price- $0.043
This is most effective and affliction ability monster from level one with 6 mana.
At number 5 it be more effective. Before placing remember that this is not a close range card, so we should give enough chance to attack it. Openly I am using this card whenever I go for battle with Death splinter.
Now have a look on my team

TEAM SELECTION AND CARD PLACEMENT.

It was a low mana battle so I want to place is called according to their utility. Remember that in this battle heal tank ability was disable. I was also aware taking magic attacks from opponent team specially blast ability monsters.
So decided to choose at least 2 magic reflect card, one health reducing card,
One affliction ability card and one poison applying monster.
It means three magic attack, two range attack monster and one card without any attack that was Furious chicken.

LORD ARIANTHUS

This is my favourite one legendary nuetral monster from reward edition. I was using it's level 3 in this battle. This is my favourite one because of its 4 specification like
#shield, #void, #thorn and #magic reflect
I was thinking that it is low mana(27) battle, so opponent team is not going to use high Mana monster. In such situation it can be more effective. You can see that till the end of this battle it was alive with one health

PRISMATIC ENERGY

source

It has been my favourite monster for a long time due to its magic reflect and void ability. This is a neutral rare monster from reward edition. I am using lord ARIANTHUS and PRISMATIC energy together since very long time. Together both became more effective.

UNDEAD PRIEST

This is very useful Death monster with only 2Mana. it is a beta version card with rare rarity.
In low mana battle it becomes more effective due to it's good health. Beside it with level 1 it reduce the health of all opponent team. With level 5 it reduce the speed of all opponent team.
Whenever I get charged to adjust it in the team definitely I would like to have it.

GRIM REAPER-

This is today's theme card.
Its utility it is great in the team whenever we are going against heal tank team due to its affliction ability that's freeze the monster to heal. Range attack makes it more powerful. This is a reward edition card with rare rarity.. Definitely I would like to have this card in team at number 5.

HAUNTED SPIDER-

source
This is one of the most useful range attack common monster having just 3 Mana. With level 4 it starts apply poison to the opponent team with the attack that much helps to reduce the health of opponent monster. I want to save this card from the first attack of enemy Melee monster that is why I placed Furious chicken at last.. I think its role become more important when enemy team using lord ARIANTHUS. Overall this is effective card in low mana cost.

FURIOUS CHICKEN-

source
This is also very useful neutral monster without any Mana. At level 5 it has increased Melee attack and Speed.I use this card either in front or at last to cover the first attack of enemy monster.

◆ Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?

Aap course my strategy works well because first I try to read the better rule after that I choose card according to their utility, after that I try to place them according to their use in the team. I placed lord ARIANTHUS and PRISMATIC energy first and second position so that GRIM REAPER can get enough chance to attack opponent team.

◆Do you like the GRIM REAPER? Why or why not?

Yes of course! I like to use grim reaper whenever I go with Death splinter especially in sneake and spine battle rule. Due to rare monster it always be useful with affliction. I have level III GRIM REAPER. I am also thinking to take it on level 5..
