Greetings My Friends,

Welcome back to my blog, @kinashi100.

At the moment, I'm going to share to all of you my idea about Silvershield Assassin, including :

Her stats and skills
Her strengths and weaknesses
How Silvershield Assassin benefited in some rule sets
Where to put Silvershield Assassin in line up

Alright guys, let's get started!

Stats and Skills

Level 1 - 4

At this level, Silvershield Assassin has 2 skills already, Sneak and Double Strike. Sneak ability allows Silvershield Assassin to target the last monster on the enemy team instead of the first Monster. That's why I usually used her with some other sneak monsters like Elven Cutthroat, Uraeus, and Feral Spirit in order to create Super Sneak attack.

Sneak	Targets the last Monster on the enemy Team instead of the first Monster. Unless there is a monster with Taunt on the enemy's team, Sneaking Monsters will always attack the last position.

Another great skill is Double Strike, which double Silvershield Assassin's attack in one turn. I personally own Silvershield Assassin at Lv.4, her normal melee attack is 2. I always put Silvershield Knight to give Inspire effect (additional 1 melee attack) to Silvershield Assassin so her melee attack become 3 and Double Strike skill makes it 6. 7 mana cost, 6 melee attack. pretty awesome, isn't?

Double Strike	Monster attacks twice each round.

Level 5 - 6

This level of Silvershield Assassin can be played started from Gold league and above. At this rate, Silvershield Assassin got Poison ability which is so deadly for the opponent. whenever the Poison was activated, it will give 2 damage automatically to the opponent health until he ran out of health point and die. This is why Silvershield Assassin is become more powerful in Lv.5 and above.

Poison	Attacks have a chance to apply poison, which does automatic damage to the target at the beginning of each round after the poison is applied. The Poison ability is triggered 50% of the time. Poison does damage at the end of the turn and is not affected by shield or void.

Strengths and Weaknesses

Strengths	Weaknesses
Double Strike, She can beat up to 2 monsters in 1 turn which means that she could kill up to 2 monsters as well.	Reverse Speed, since she has 4 speed at Lv. 4, Most probably she will attack after slow enemy finished their turn.
High Speed in normal mode battle, So generally, She attacks first compared to other monsters due to her high speed in Lv.4 (4 speed).	Mid-Low health point. Compared to other monsters who have 7 mana cost, Silvershield Assassin's health point is low (5 only).
	Fog of War, This monster could not attack in this rule set unless in 1^st position since sneak ability is deactivated
	Little league, Silvershield Assassin can not be used in this rule set since only Monsters & Summoners that cost 4 Mana or less may be used in battles.

How Silvershield Assassin benefited in some Rule Sets

#1. Equalizer

The initial Health of all Monsters is equal to that of the Monster on either team with the highest base Health. This is due to Silvershield Assassin's Low health point. This rule sets makes her having the same initial health points as the other monsters but she has more damage I do believe since 6 melee attack in 1 turn is considered high compared to the average melee attack in one turn which is around 3-4 after receiving inspire ability.

#2. Explosive Weaponry

All Monsters have the Blast ability. The best strategy is to have fast monsters with Snipe, Sneak, and Opportunity. Since Silvershield Assassin is belong to fast monster in Lv.4 with her 4 speed and she has sneak ability also, she is one of the best choice for the Explosive Weaponry Rule Sets. Most people generally hide their strongest or key monster in the last position, so Having Silvershield Assassin will come in handy since she will attack them and give additional 2 damage (total) to the adjacent monster due to the blast ability.

#3. Aim True

Melee and Ranged attacks always hit their target. This is very important since Silvershield Assassin is not a flying monster and when she is attacking flying monster, there is a chance to miss. Aim True will make her attack always hit the target, no matter the type of the target is. Her high speed put her in advantage since she will attack first rather than other monsters.

Where to put Silvershield Assassin in line up

I usually put Silvershield Assassin in the last position since she is one of the key monster that should not die early. Her deadly attack with high speed will always needed in the battle. In some rarely circumstance, where the mana is a bit low like 15 - 16 and the rule set is "Odd Ones Out", where only Monsters with odd Mana costs may be used in battles, I used to put Silvershield Assassin as a tank since she has the highest health point compared to the other monsters i used like Feral Spirit, Uraeus or Elven Cutthroat.
