Hello Splinters, I'm Lagnarok, Welcome to my Weekly Social Media Battle Challenge. Each Faction has grown tired of this situation and cannot make a breakthrough since every Faction is wary of each other and cannot fully attack the other Faction because of it. Some have decided to use "Black Pearls" A.K.A "Gun Powders" for their every monster. Gun Powder is very dangerous and could cause an explosion with every attack.

Tale of Queen Mycelia

A fearsome noble woman oversaw a dark and dank estate. She craved ever more and more and had her slaves dig deep into the mountains that bordered her home. Seeking riches within the depths. But when no riches emerged, she became fierce and violent. Demanding harder and harder work. And the slaves dug more. And within the depths of the mountains, they unearthed a horror beyond their comprehension. The first happening was the growth turning on the manor. Food became poisoned. Vines blocked doors and obscured windows. And spores sprouted everywhere. Then the slaves became corrupted. Their bodies turned into hosts for parasitic fungi. Long after they died, their bodies shambled around the grounds. It was a menace that could not be controlled. Read More.

The Black Pearls Technology

The Battle happened within Silver League, Wild Format, in a Ranked Battle match. The Splinterlands God has decided the Mana allocation is 29. Fire Faction didn't want to get caught in this muddy water and avoided the Faction Weekly War while the others agreed to participate.

I had a specific reason for choosing Obsidian as my Summoner; with Explosive Weaponary Ruleset and 29 Mana caps, I got an Idea of how I should do it.

Battle Preparation & Strategies

Card	Ability	Plans
	+1 Magic	Obsidian is a Rare Summoner from the Chaos Legion expansion pack. I chose Obsidian as My summoner because the easiest way under Explosive Weaponary Ruleset is using Magic Mete since its attack can bypass any armor. As for my reason for choosing the Earth Splinter instead of the Water Splinter, which also has a very Powerful is... I will describe it in another paragraph.
	Shield, Void, Magic Reflect	Lord Arianthus is a Legendary Monster from the Reward Series. As you see Lord Ariantus's abilities, this is the Best tank you can find with a meager mana allocation. It only took 5 mana to use, and this is a very solid tank that can defend against almost any attack.
	Heal, Divine Shield	Kron The Undying is a Legendary Monster from the Untamed expansion pack, With an Explosive Weaponry ruleset; At the same time, my tank attacked, and my second line monster got caught by an explosion blast, but with Kron the Undying self-healing, I don't care anymore about the Blast.
	Slow	Creeping Ooze is a Common Monster from the Reward Series, I decided to use Creeping Ooze not like I have a special reason, but with 1 More mana allocation, I decided to use it while giving debuff for the enemy instead other 1 mana monster with no buff or debuff.
	Sneak	Goblin Sorcerer is a Common Monster from the Alpha expansion pack; with Goblin Sorcerer Sneak ability, it will easily attack the enemy backline just in case to avoid the Enemy's Tank.
	Tank Heal	Khmer Princess is a Rare Monster from the Untamed expansion pack. Since I chose Obsidian as my Summoner, I decided to use Khmer Princess, who could cast Magic attacks and heal my tank too, and it only took 2 mana to use Khmer Princess.
	Protect, Amplify	Queen Mycelia is a Legendary Monster from the Chaos Legion expansion pack. I decided to use this because of its abilities, Protect to put buff all my monsters with +2 armor, and Amplify just in case my Enemy uses Magic to attack my Tank; it would be reflected and amplified, so it will gonna hurt them a lot.

Battle Detail

A single piece of Video is more than a thousand words.

Did my Strategy Work?

Yes, My strategy works perfectly since my enemy is using Magic Meta since most of their magic is reflected and amplified, so enemy monsters die very fast. As I decided to use Earth Splinter instead Water Splinter and played with Magic Meta because Kron The Undying and Queen Mycelia, The enemy making his strategy obviously so I decided to us Kron The Undying in Second Position to deal with Blast and Queen Mycelia Amplified Lord Arianthus abilities.
