Hi Splinterlands fans. This post is to show how Fatigue works in Splinterlands battles.

Fatigue was implemented into battles to help decide a winner that would otherwise end in a draw. At the beginning of round 21 and all following rounds the monsters will lose one point due to battle fatigue and one additional point for all future rounds. As you can see at the end of this battle at the end of round 24 four points damage were assigned to each remaining monster which was more than one could handle.

Here is what happens after SEVEN rounds of fatigue:

One of the reasons this happens is when monsters heal more than the damage received in attacks. There is an even greater chance of this happening when a player like me uses a non attacking monster like I did 😃.
So for this battle both teams chose healing monsters because of the Noxious Fumes rule set. Noxious Fumes means all monsters start the battle Poisoned, which then means all monsters take two points damage directly to their health at the beginning of each round.
What you will notice is my Gelatinous Cube is healing not only because of a Healing ability but also the Scavenger ability plus the healing my summoner gives each round. Even with all that healing power it's nothing short of a miracle I won that battle. My opponent chose the Flesh Golem which also self heals and is one of my favourite tanks for that reason. If I didn't use Byzantine Kitty to supply additional tank healing there's no way my monsters could have won this battle.

This is becoming a little collection of Fatigue battles:

This was another Fatigue with the Poisoned ruleset. Byzantine Kitty battles it out with Scarred Llama Mage.

A Fatigue battle with lots of healing:

Look at the incredible Health swings these Cubes are having. The winner got lucky (me) because of mechanics over my head on this.
