🐲DRAGONS,🐲 a splinter that, in my opinion, is the most powerful in the Splinterlands. While not all Dragons are to be employed as front-liners, a fair number of them deliver massive brute force in battle. They are useful in battle and are designed to cancel and neutralize enemy monsters.

This splinter is without a doubt the most diverse of all; there is a wide range of cards and attack types, and their amazing abilities will make every player desire to have them on deck.

You're probably asking why, if they're the strongest and i mentioned again that they're also the least popular?. First let's establish that it was a Click-bait😂. Secondly, because of the image dragons conjure up, you'll picture a massive fire-breathing monster. But, the dragons I'm about to introduce to you are humans with dragon talents and abilities. From Stats, these warriors are rarely employed in battle, but if properly engaged in favourable positions, they will ensure victory.

Without further ado, let's get started and present our Team line up.

This was a high mana cap battle with an interesting but unfavorable for my ruleset taste; ✔️WEAK MAGIC: Magic attack hits armor before reducing health on the battlefield.

PAGE DIVIDER TO EDIT PART 2-5.png

The enemy came at me with Enemy-DARIA DRAGONSCALE as Summoner, Enemy-DJINN CHWALA in front line, Enemy-CARNAGE TITAN in third, Enemy-CHAOS DRAGON in fourth, Enemy-DRAGON JUMPER in fifth and Enemy-SILVERSHIELD ASSASSIN in backline. The enemy also used the Dragon splinter and deadly ones for sure, pure BRUTE FORCE. Let us see who's dragons stronger⚔️🐉.

ezgif.com-gif-maker (40).gif

  • STHISPA grants all team monsters the Phase ability.

  • The CABALIST used a strong magic spell to demoralize the enemy monsters, neutralizing the enemy summoner ENEMY-DARIA DRAGONSCALE's deadly melee.

  • QUEEN OF CORNS utilized her powers to headwind all of the enemy monsters, lowering their ranged attack accuracy. She also slowed them down, deducting -1 from their speed points.

  • LIRA THE DARK swooped in and bestowed the Swift ability on all team monsters, giving them an additional speed point advantage.

  • LIRA THE DARK quickly targeted and killed ENEMY-CREEPING OOZE, with a single strike.

  • RUNIC SKYCLAW attacks ENEMY-CHAOS DRAGON and destroys his shield. The CABALIST and QUEEN OF CROWS target and take turns striking at ENEMY-DJINN CHWALA.

  • ENEMY-SILVERSHIELD ASSASIN is targeted by DHAMPIR INFILTRATOR and suffers double damage. LIRA THE DARK does not spend time identifying the weak link in the opposing lineup; she strikes and effortlessly removes ENEMY-SILVERSHIELD ASSASSIN.

  • The CABALIST and QUEEN OF CROWS take turns attacking ENEMY-DJINN CHWALA, killing her instantaneously.

  • ENEMY-DRAGON JUMPER flies over and promptly kills DHAMPIR INFILTRATOR😥.

  • LIRA THE DARK and RUNIC SKYCLAW strike and slay the ENEMY-CHAOS DRAGON quickly.

  • ENEMY-DRAGON JUMPER flies over and hits LORD OF DARKNESS, instantly killing him😥.

  • CABALIST unleashes a lethal spell that instantly kills the enemy stronghold's frontline TITAN OF ENEMY-CARNAGE

  • LIRA THE DARK aims and unleashes the final strike of triumph on the last standing ENEMY-DRAGON JUMPER.

🎉FLAWLESS VICTORY!!!🎉

DO I LIKE THE 🐲DRAGON🐲 SPLINTER CARDS?

As already mentioned, 🐲DRAGON🐲 are my favorite cards to play with because they are so flexible and adaptable to almost any type of rule set. Left to me, we should always have atleast 2 or 3 of these amazing splinter warriors on deck to combine their great power with the rest of our cards and increase our chances of winning😆.

I definitely like the 🐲DRAGON🐲 cards I picked for this battle, because even at Gold league this monsters have useful abilities. It'll be idle to not use magic monsters with a WEAK MAGIC ruleset. Furthermore, engaging a large number of melee attack monsters, like my opponent did, is very common in order to gain an advantage.

The 🐲DRAGONS🐲 served their purpose well. The battle was exciting to watch and I will keep seeking more ways to engage this splinter in battle.

PAGE DIVIDER TO EDIT PART 2-5.png

DID MY STRATEGIES WORK AND WHAT I WOULD'VE DONE DIFFERENTLY?

Yes, my strategy was very effective to an extent. The battle's lineup was simple. Although I admit it was a bit risky, after seeing the battle's rule set and my enemy's most used units, I was 75% certain what the enemy would go for and surely so.

I felt sad when DHAMPIR INFILTRATOR died [Really fancy that card alot], but she sure served her purpose in the position she was in. If there's anything I would've done different was prolly placing her in second position to make use of her Sneak and Double strike ability.

In this battle, I focused on 2 melee tanker as LORD OF DARKNESS and DHAMPIR INFILTRATOR, then 3 Range attackers as LIRE THE DARK , QUEEN OF CROWS and RUNIC SKYCLAW at the back line to target and eliminate enemies from a distance. Infact, all ranged attack monsters survived while melee attackers perished. So, when confronted with this ruleset, I would recommend using melees as sacrifice units, a magic monster for some spell casting, and the rest as ranged attackers. All in all, if we think strategically and properly manage the mana available for each battle, the victory rate will undoubtedly exceed 85%.

🐲DRAGONS🐲 are no doubt an incredible splinter and this battle challenge has surely exposed their usefulness in battle.
