Hi beautiful gaming world!
This is my weekly submission for splinterlands with the theme card - CENTAUR

SOURCE

It is just 8 hours before splinterlands season ended, nothing get special that I can count. Before it move forward I want to submit my weekly battle share challenge.. From previous two month I has been away from making any post related weekly battle share because of burden of work. From 31st December there will be 15 days winter vacation here, so there will be plenty of time to enjoy this gaming platform more.
We are ready to celebrate new year. There is some ups and down can be seen in cryptocurrency market, mostly countries are ready to launch their digital currencies, some bad news from my side taken cryptocurrency ban. I want to clear indication towards crypto regulation in my country. There is a slight fear inside the mind that never let us be free.
What were the decision of Indian government no need to panic about that, just I want to enjoy this gaming platform and ready with my weekly battle share submission.

MY SUMMONER

PLADO EMBERSTORM

SOURCE

I wanted to be best alternative of YODIN ZAKU that is using my opponent, so I decided to go with PLADO EMBERSTORM , a wonderful Legendary summoner 3 special ability.
Adding one Melee attack, increasing speed and reducing opponent health.
If you are playing against Yodin then really needed such Summoner that can help you to reduce the impact of YODIN ZAKU. I was using monster high speed that helped me to win this battle. It was a tough battle. I was fortunate that opponent missed attack three time. That was blessing and I won this battle.

MY CARD LINEUP
I was here with combination of 3 MELEE attack and 3 RANGE attack Monsters. My priority was speed and chosen three range attack. My opponent was adverse because he was using range Summoner yet he was using only two range attack monster. That was blessing for me. Despite opponent's blast my card fight them bravely and won the battle.
◆ MAGNOR
◆ CERBERUS
◆ CENTAUR
◆ SPARK PIXIE
◆ PYROMANIAC
◆SERPENTINE SPY

BATTLE STRATEGY WITH ROUND WISE

First Round

SOURCE

As it was expected that first attack will be completed from my side and happened same.
First attack was from my side by SPARK PIXIE that stunned opponent's MAGNOR. Second attack also from my side by PYROMANIAC, third attack was also from my side by CENTAUR. It means 3 quick attack from my side.. two attack from opponent after that again two attack from my side by serpentine spy and MAGNOR that destroyed opponent's MAGNOR as first damage from opponent side. After that again two attack from opponent side. With it first round ended, no damage from my side. It is because there was Heal tank at second position as CERBERUS..

SECOND ROUND

SOURCE

Second round started from my side by spark pixie . After that too quick attack from PYROMANIAC and Centaur from my side. No more damages from any side. After that again MAGNOR taken the charge and destroyed opponent's FINEAS RAGE . Next was TRAMPLE ability that provide opportunity to Magnor for second attack. But this time only armour reduced no more damage. After that quick attack from opponent by serpentine spy and I lost my first position and second position card in the form of Magnore and Cerberus. After that one miss attack from my side. Opponent's Kobald Miner that reduced the armour of Centaur. Again one miss attack from Ferexia GENERAL that survive my team. Second round ended with the attack of General. Equally 3 card remaining from both side. Let's see what happens in next round.

ROUND THIRD

SOURCE

3rd round started with the attack of Spark Pixie from my side that stunned opponent's Kobald Miner. One more quick attack from my side by PYROMANIAC that damaged to opponent's IMP BOWMAN. Once again one attack from opponent by Serpentine Spy that damaged the only armour of my side. Again one miss attack from opponent's General and two quick attack from my side. Opponent lost Kobald Miner. With the end of 3rd round two cards from opponent alive and 4 card from my side. It means result was very clear that was in my favour. It was just a formality that will take in round 4.

ROUND FOUR

SOURCE

SOURCE

Beginning of round for starts with the attack of Spark Pixie that reduces the number of serpentine Spy and after that again quick attack from PYROMANIAC with blast ability and opponent lost his all card. It was a fantastic battle that played between two Legendary summoner with same splinter. There was only one difference between these two that my opponent was with Yodin ZAKU that has blast ability as additional benefit. One thing I noticed that speed dominated in this battle. it was only one different that changed the result of this battle. I was happy to win the battle against YODIN ZAKU..

DID MY STRATEGY WORKED WELL? WILL YOU TRY DIFFERENTLY IN NEXT TIME?
Mostly I have noticed if someone has YODIN ZAKU as a legendary summoner and he gets enough Mana for battle then surely he comes with that.. My guess was perfect when I checked about opponent's recently played team. I was ready to face Legendary summoner. To take the opposition team into the trap, I laid a trap and I also caught in the best way. You can see how successive attacks were going on from my side, with the result that half of the opposition team was quickly destroyed. While my side only lost two cards till the end. Its main credit goes to to Spark Pixie that stunned opponent's MAGNOR with very first attack and it was possible because of speed. Rest of the team seemed helpless. Beside it one more fact worked well that was speed. The easiest way to defend is attack, which my team has used properly.

DO YOU USE CENTAUR OFTEN? WHY OR WHY NOT?
To be honest, I hardly used CENTAUR. I have other best alternative of it but sometimes I use it during little League battle rule. When I have to play with it definitely I rent it with appropriate level I can use with summoner. With high level it be more effective due to speed. Although I do not use CENTAUR very much but I can say definitely that it is very useful monster with pretty good range attack and speed. Initial time when there was no alternative, then I mostly use it but this time occasionally use it.
