Introduction

Another weekly challenge released (Splinterlands, 2022), this time about a Water Splinter card from the Chaos Legion Set, the Cruel Sethropod.

Cruel Sethropod Lvl 10

Among all the cards released from the Water Splinter, the Cruel Sethropod is one that doesn't have abilities at any level, just like the Kulu Swimhunter (Greengineer, 2022-a). In its favor it has its good HP + Shield ratio considering the MP spent, being a good card when the Little League and/or Back to Basics game rules are active, or when there is little MP for summoning.

The strategy before the battle

The match had the Back to Basics and Lost Magic rules active, 25 MP available, and only Life and Dragon Splinters were disabled. Looking at my opponent's history, I realized that there was an abusive use of Summoner Mylor Crowling, so as there would only be a possibility of doing physical damage in the game, I would have to avoid relying on melee damage.

That wouldn't be a difficult task with the presence of the Back to Basics rule, which meant there wouldn't be any monsters with abilities in the game. This way, the only monsters that could attack without being in first position would be the ones with ranged attack. With that in mind I selected the Summoner Lir Deepswimmer which would give the Return Fire ability to all my monsters, in addition to +02 Shield and the Debuff Blind. So in addition to being more protected against physical attacks, which would be all the damage in the match, they would return part of the damage to ranged attackers.

When using Lir, there are only 18 MP left to summon my monsters. In this way I looked for cards with a good HP + Shield ratio per MP spent to occupy the main tank and secondary tank positions. For this mission I chose the Spineback Turtle and the Cruel Sethropod. I used 02 tanks to make better use of Return Fire, seeking to eliminate the enemy's rear. As ranged attackers I selected the aforementioned Kulu Swimhunter in fourth position, Naga Windmaster in fifth position and Grenadier in last position. To occupy a free slot I used the Torrent Fiend in third position.

Once the team was assembled, I was hoping that my enemy didn't have the same idea of using Lir, and that happened.

The battle

My opponent came with Mylor Crowling as a Summoner, putting Pelacor Mercenary as a tank and Furious Chicken as a second tank. As ranged attackers he selected Venari Seedsmith in third position, Iza the Fanged in fourth position, Acid Shooter in fifth position and Centaur in last position.

His tank was stronger than mine and he had more ranged firepower. Both my strategy and his were taking damage to hit, but Return Fire had way more monsters to hurt than my opponent's Thorns.

In the first round I lost my Spineback Turtle, but most of my enemies lost health in the process.

In the second round, Naga Windmaster eliminated Pelacor Mercenary, then Grenadier eliminated Furious Chicken and then Cruel Sethropod eliminated Venari Seedsmith, leaving only 03 enemies on the battlefield.

In the third round Kulu Swimhunter eliminated Iza the Fanged and then my Cruel Sethropod was eliminated by Centaur. Then the Naga Windmaster eliminated the Acid Shooter and the Grenadier ended the match by delivering the final blow to the Centaur.

No monsters were defeated by the Return Fire skill, but they were so weakened by it that my ranged attackers were able to eliminate every single one of my enemies with a single blow, with the exception of the tank.

Introdução

Mais um desafio semanal lançado (Splinterlands, 2022), desta vez sobre uma carta do Splinter da Água do Set Chaos Legion, o Cruel Sethropod.

Cruel Sethropod Lvl 10

Dentre todas as cartas lançadas do Splinter da Água o Cruel Sethropod é uma das que não possui habilidades em qualquer nível, assim como ocorre com o Kulu Swimhunter (Greengineer, 2022-a). Ao seu favor ele conta com sua boa relação de HP + Shield levando em conta o MP gasto, sendo uma boa carta quando as regras de jogo Little League e/ou Back to Basics estão ativas, ou quando há pouco MP para invocação.

A estratégia antes da batalha

A partida em questão tinha as regras Back to Basics e Lost Magic ativas, 25 de MP disponíveis e apenas os Splinters da Vida e do Dragão estavam desabilitados. Observando o histórico de meu oponente percebi que havia um uso abusivo do Summoner Mylor Crowling, logo como só haveria possibilidade de realizar dano físico na partida eu teria que evitar me apoiar no dano melee.

Isso não seria uma tarefa difícil com a presença da regra Back to Basics, que significava que não haveria nenhum monstro com habilidades na partida. Desta forma, os únicos monstros que poderiam atacar sem estar na primeira posição seriam os com ataque à distância. Com isto em mente selecionei o Summoner Lir Deepswimmer que daria a habilidade Return Fire para todos os meus monstros, além de +02 de Shield e do Debuff Blind. Assim além de ficarem mais protegidos contra os ataques físicos, que seriam todo o dano da partida, eles retornariam parte do dano para os atacantes à distância.

Ao utilizar o Lir, sobrou apenas 18 de MP para invocar os meus monstros. Desta forma busquei cartas com uma boa relação de HP + Shield por MP gasto para ocupar as posições de tanque principal e tanque secundário. Para esta missão escolhi o Spineback Turtle e o Cruel Sethropod. Utilizei 02 tanques para fazer um melhor uso do Return Fire, buscando eliminar a retaguarda inimiga. Como atacantes à distância eu selecionei o já mencionado Kulu Swimhunter na quarta posição, o Naga Windmaster na quinta posição e o Grenadier na última posição. Para ocupar um slot livre utilizei o Torrent Fiend na terceira posição.

Uma vez montado o time era torcer que meu inimigo não tivesse a mesma idéia de utilizar o Lir, e isso aconteceu.

A batalha

Meu oponente veio com o Mylor Crowling como Summoner, colocando o Pelacor Mercenary como tanque e a Furious Chicken como segundo tanque. Como atacantes à distância ele selecionou o Venari Seedsmith na terceira posição, a Iza the Fanged na quarta posição, o Acid Shooter na quinta posição e o Centaur na última posição.

Seu tanque era mais forte que o meu e ele possuía mais poder de fogo à distância. A estratégia de ambos era apanhar para bater, mas o Return Fire tinha muito mais monstro para machucar do que o Thorns de meu oponente.

No primeiro round perdi meu Spineback Turtle, mas boa parte dos meus inimigos perderam vida no processo.

02 Round Cruel.png

No segundo round o Naga Windmaster eliminou o Pelacor Mercenary, na sequência o Grenadier eliminou a Furious Chicken e em seguida o Cruel Sethropod eliminou o Venari Seedsmith, restando apenas 03 inimigos no campo de batalha.

03 Round Cruel.png

No terceiro round o Kulu Swimhunter eliminou a Iza the Fanged e em seguida meu Cruel Sethropod foi eliminado pelo Centaur. Na sequência o Naga Windmaster eliminou o Acid Shooter e o Grenadier encerrou a partida dando o golpe final no Centaur.

03-2 Round Cruel.png

Nenhum monstro foi derrotado pela habilidade Return Fire, mas ficaram tão enfraquecidos devido à ela que meus atacantes a distância conseguiram eliminar cada um de meu inimigos com um só golpe, com exceção do tanque.

Espero que tenham gostado da batalha, para acompanhá-la em detalhes é só clicar em Greengineer (2022-b).
