SHARE YOUR BATTLE Weekly Challenge! GARGOYA SCRAPPER
Now before getting into the stats discussion of the Monster, let's have a sneak peek into its LORE
- It starts off with no special ability at level 1. That is actually pretty common for Common cards, especially those which cost a low amount of mana. It starts off with 1 Attack, 2 Speed, 0 Shield and 2 Health.
- At level 3 it gains the Void ability (Reduced damage from Magic Attacks)
- At level 5 which is the max level for Silver league it gains an additional point in Speed.
- At level 7 it gains an additional attack point but loses the point in speed it previously gained.
- Finally maxxed out at level 10 the Monster has 2 Attack, 3 Speed, 0 Armor and 3 Health, which are pretty good stats for a 1-mana melee filler card.
Now that we know what the card does (or doesn't do) at the different levels of play, let us have a look at the two battles (because they are pretty quick) I have chosen to showcase.
<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>BATTLE 1<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>
- The line-up of the Battle and the Ruleset:
It is time for a quick round by round analysis:
- I want to preface this by saying that both battles I have chosen to showcase are from my Bronze I alt account as it had Life as its daily focus so it was easier for me to get decent battles which include the Gargoya Scrapper. The Summoner I have chosen to use this battle is a level 2 Lorna Shine, while my opponent has chose to use a level 2 Alric Stormbringer to boost their Magic line-up.
- After 1 round, there are no casualties. It is clear that since I have 2 healers and my opponent 1 healer on the tank spot and 1 healer for their last spot, it could be a long battle.
- At the start of Round 3 I have managed to take down their 2 cannon fodder Monsters but now it has come to Djinn Oshannus as their main tank which is also a Monster with the Void ability so my Divine Healer does 0 damage to it.
- Round 4 is here and the stalemate is obvious. No Monsters will die until we get into overtime.
- Fast forward to Round 21 and the first round of fatigue has hit the battle field. All Monsters remaining from Round 4 are still alive.
- Round 22 - after the 2nd round of fatigue our protagonist - the Gargoya Scrapper finally gives up and breaks into pieces. The enemy's healer has also lost the battle with fatigue.
- Round 23- after the 3rd round of fatigue has passed. The battle field is significantly emptier with just 4 Monsters barely hanging on.
- Round 24 - it is the Djinn Renova against the Lobstradamus in a final showdown. Unfortunately even though the Djinn Renova is faster than the overgrown lobster and kills it, the fatigue damage after that kills it.
- Eventually the battle ends with a well-deserved draw. My plan to boost the life of our hero - the Gargoya Scrapper actually worked but our team lacked just a bit more damage to be victorious eventually.
<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>BATTLE 2<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>
- Let us begin with the line-up and the Ruleset:
It is time for a quick round by round analysis:
- As we can see I have again opted for a level 2 Lorna Shine. My enemy is also using a Dragon Summoner I actually rarely see in battle - Selenia Sky
- After 1 round I have taken down the enemy's harpy while my Soul Fiend is down after taking those two hits we already discussed.
- At the start of Round 3 we can see that the enemy has also lost their Stich Leech while I have not lost any additional Monsters yet. The enemy still has its most dangerous Monster on the board though - Djinn Chwala due to its Thorns ability but its shield is already down.
- Round 4 - we can see that I have lost two more Monsters - the Silvershield Knight and Gargoya Scrapper but the Djinn Chwala is down to 1 health which is quite telling for what the outcome of the battle will be. After a somewhat lackluster Draw in the first battle, the Gargoya Scrapper finally contributed to a win for its team. A worthy sacrifice.
The Gargoya Scrapper is a very low-budget melee Monster from the Life Splinter, which will definitely rarely be your MVP, but is a very nice Monster to support your defensive efforts for sure. With its mana cost of 1, it can be fit in any line-up as long as you have 1 mana to spare and 1 free spot in your team.

They literally have attempted my murder and are trying to kill me with V2K and RNM. Five years this has been happening to me, it started here, around people that are still here. Homeland security has done nothing at all, they are not here to protect us. Dont we pay them to stop shit like this? The NSA, CIA, FBI, Police and our Government has done nothing. Just like they did with the Havana Syndrome, nothing. Patriot Act my ass. The American government is completely incompetent. The NSA should be taken over by the military and contained Immediately for investigation. I bet we can get to the sources of V2K and RNM then. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism ..... https://ecency.com/gangstalking/@acousticpulses/electronic-terrorism-and-gaslighting--if-you-downvote-this-post-you-are-part-of-the-problem if you run into one of them you may want to immediately shoot them in the face. 187, annihilate, asphyxiate, assassinate, behead, bleed, boil, bomb, bone, burn, bury, butcher, cap, casket, choke, club, crucify, crush, decapitate, decimate, deflesh, destroy, devein, dismember, drown, electrocute, eliminate, end, execute, explode, exterminate, extinguish, finish, grind, guillotine, gut, hang, hit, ice, implode, incinerate, kill, liquidate, lynch, massacre, neutralize, obliterate, off, pop, poison, punnish, quarter, ruin, shank, shock, shoot, skin, slay, slaughter, smoke, smother, snipe, snuff, squish, stab, stone, suffocate, suicide, swing, terminate, torture, terrorize, whack, waste, wreck
