Splinterlands | GRIMBARDUN FIGHTER works great against Thorns
What’s up my fellow Splinterlands players!
I hope all of you are having an awesome day with your loved ones and enjoying this game in your free time. For those like me who play this game on a regular basis, I guess you noticed that we have already passed halfway through this current ranked season and only 6 days left for this current season to meet its end. So I hope all of you guys are playing with your best effort right now in order to reach your goal for this season, be it either to reach a certain league tier or to secure a spot in the champion leaderboard. Now for me, as usual, my goal is to reach Champion III tier and gladly, last night I already reached there and this time, I touched my goal a bit earlier than usual. But today when I started playing again, I lost some matches and am currently sitting at Diamond I tier with a current trophy count of 3,680. Though I need only 1 win from here to reclaim my spot in Champ, I have to play cautiously from now on because as the season ends is getting near, more and more OG players will get super active. So let’s see how it goes for me in this season.
Now moving forward, let me now come to the main topic of this post as today, I will be talking about another amazing Rebellion monster with you all and as you have already seen it in the thumbnail above, today I will be talking about GRIMBARDUN FIGHTER. So, if you are interested, let us take a deep dive without any further ado.
Grimbardun Fighter
GRIMBARDUN FIGHTER is a monster type card that got launched into the game with the latest Rebellion edition card set and this card is from the core set. This monster belongs to the Neutral element and it is a common type card, so you will need a total of 400 BCXs of cards to upgrade it to max level. This card’s attack type is melee and it costs 9 mana to be used in battles, so you can select this card while playing medium to large mana matches. Apart from a good melee attack, decent speed and a good combo of health and armour, it also possesses 3 cool abilities which I am about to talk about later on. Let us now take a look at its league wise stays and abilities below.
BRONZE
At level 3, this card possesses 3 melee attack at 2 speed with 1 armour and 7 health along with 2 new abilities called Shield that it gets from its initial level and Corrosive Ward that it gets from level 3 onwards. With the help of the Shield ability, this monster will receive 50% less damage from melee and ranged attacks while on the other hand, with the help of Corrosive Ward, this monster when hit with a melee attack, the unit does 2 armour damage to the attacker, and max armour of the attacker is reduced by 2.
SILVER
As you upgrade this card to level 5, this monster gets 3 melee attack at 3 speed with 2 armour and 7 health, but it does not get any new ability at this level. However, with the increased speed and armour, this monster is now more powerful in the silver league.
GOLD
When this card reaches level 8, it receives 3 melee attack at 3 speed with 3 armour and 8 health and also gets one new ability called Reflection Shield. With this new ability, this unit will not take any more damage from Blast, Magic Reflect, Thorns or Return Fire.
DIAMOND / CHAMPION
Finally, when you upgrade this card to its max level of 10, it gets 4 melee attack at 3 speed with 3 armour and 9 health along with those 3 abilities that I talked about above. However, though it does not get any new ability at max level, it gets an increased 4 melee attack which will help you kill down enemy cards faster.
Battle Link
BATTLE STAT
This time I got a large 47 mana match where only 3 elements were allowed - Water, Life and Death and also, there were a total of 3 rulesets applied in this match - Equal Opportunity (all monsters will have the Opportunity ability), Rise of the Commons (only common and rare cards are allowed) and Briar Patch (all monsters have Thorns ability). For this match, after thinking about my strategy I decided to choose magic monsters and started building my lineup accordingly. For this match, I chose the Death summoner Thaddius Brood and at my frost position, I chose the Grimbardun Fighter followed by Queen of Crows, Venari Bonesmith, Cabalist, Dhampir Stalker and Supply Runner at the last position of my lineup.
When both the lineups were revealed, I saw that my opponent had used the legendary death summoner Astral Entity and at his first position, he chose Grimbardun Smith followed by Moxian Rebel, Riftwing, Queen of Crows, Cabalist and Chaos Adjutant at the end position. As the battle started, I decreased all his ranged and magic monster's attack power by 1, thanks to my summoner Brood and Queen of Crows. Now I used the Grimbardun Fighter in front place because its Reflection shield will protect it from Thorns damage.
As the battle started, I killed his Cabalist in the first round but it got resurrected again, followed by my bonesmith’s attack which finally killed it down. At round 2, I killed down Chaos Adjutant with my Cabalist and then, all my monsters started targeting the Smith. Sadly, my Cabalist died at this round and then at round 4, my Fighter also died. As the battle continued, I lost all my monsters except Queen of Crows and Bonesmith while the opponent still had 4 monsters left. Finally, at round 8, my bonesmith killed down the Smith and then I killed down the rest 3 monsters easily and won the match.
I hope you loved watching the match which I shared above and also liked reading my post. Do you also love to use this monster in battles? Let me know in the comment section below and I will be seeing you all in my next post.
