The 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 is an amazing card with RANGE attack from the Dragon unit and it costs 9-mana to use in battle.

Let us now delve deep into this rare card to discover what makes her so unique. I am using a level 6 regular foil and she has 4-Range, 6-speed, 4-defense, and 6-health.

🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲, is excitingly one of the newly released RIFTWATCHERS EDITION card and I was super doped to engage in battle. Luckily got her to rent, sweet!

🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 is an engineering Marvel, her suit allows her to take flight and soar through the sky with dragon-like wings. She can shoot precise beams of fire from the palms of her hands. Her suit's sophisticated sensors are extremely responsive to her body's natural movement, providing exceptional agility in flight.

She is very difficult to defeat in battle. This is made feasible by her exceptional abilities.

FLYING ability- When in battle, she has increased chance of causing great damage to Melee & Range attack monsters who do not have the flying ability.

SNIPE ability- She accurate targets ranged, magic and monsters with no attack type who aren't in the front position.

REFLECTION SHIELD ability- She doesn't take damage from blast, magic reflect, thorns and return fire.

At level 1 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 has 3-Ranged attacks at 6-speeds, 3-defense, 5-health, and the 'Flying + Snipe ability'. Even at level one, she has super impressive abilities, so will be very useful even in higher league.

level 2 Every other stats remains the same but then she gains an extra health point +1❤️.

level 5 She gains an extra Range point and another new ability 'Reflection shield'.

At Max level 8-MAX, however, she gains another extra Range, Shield and Health point while possessing the stats of a level 5. She then gains another impressive ability, the Giant killer. 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 is particularly effective against non-flyers, so you will see her being used in earthquake battles.

🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 becomes extremely powerful when it's 9-mana cost is considered and well worth it. At this maximum Level, 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 Ranged attack can be increased further with summoners like SELENA SKY for extra '+1 Range' ability.

⚔️ TEAM LINE-UP ⚔️

BUFF	SUMMONER	ELEMENT	LEVEL	RARITY
+1 MELEE		DRAGON	⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️	EPIC

DARIA DRAGONSCALE STRATEGY:

DARIA DRAGONSCALE is one of my favorite Dragon summoners because of her extra Melee attack points she offers all Melee attack monsters, something that can quickly deplete their life points so that the battle lasts a few rounds but not too long. Of course, I know when to use her, but for this battle, I needed her and her inherent ability to grant me a +1 Melee attack point, as my front attacker is a Melee attacker LORD OF DARKNESS. I reasoned that the ruleset will make my enemy pick loads of ranged attacker, so I decided to come with melee which imho can prove resistant, giving room for 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 to rain damage on my enemies who aren't Melee attackers and not in the front line.

POSITION	CARD	ABILITY	LEVEL	RARITY	STATS
Front-Position		ENRAGE, STUN, SHIELD	⭐️⭐️⭐️	LEGENDARY	4-MELEE 3-SPEED 2-DEFENSE9-HEALTH

LORD OF DARKNESS STRATEGY:

LORD OF DARKNESS is the Lord of battle, and he leads the team to victory with his amazing abilities. When he is injured, his Enrage ability is activated which gives increase Melee and speed attack . He Stuns his assailant, leading them to lose control of the situation, losing a turn to strike. A 3 star⭐️⭐️⭐️ warrior with the Shield ability, which shields him from melee attacks. I have employed him solely for this purpose, to absorb hits.

POSITION	CARD	ABILITY	LEVEL	RARITY	STATS
second-Position		FLYING, SNIPE, REFLECTION SHIELD	⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️	RARE	4-RANGE 6-SPEED 4-DEFENSE6-HEALTH

RUNIC SKYCLAW STRATEGY:

In second and final position is the theme card. Because of it's high 10-shield, 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 can deal considerable Range damage to the enemy. The ruleset clearly supports it's entry into battle, perfect timing. She is mainly a Range attacker that can attack from any position. It's Flying ability will destroy non-flying melee and ranged attack enemies. Her Snipe ability targets monsters with range, magic or no attack type at all, causing great damage to them and her Reflection shield will not take damage from Blast, Magic reflect, Thorns or Return fire.

🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 and LORD OF DARKNESS are ready to engage in battle. Without further ado, let us now enter the battleground.

⚔️ROUND 1⚔️

• My Enemy also used the Dragon Unit, ENEMY-DARIA DRAGONSCALE as Summoner. ENEMY-HAUNTED SPIRIT in first position, ENEMY-UNDEAD PRIEST in second, ENEMY-FALLEN SPECTER in third, ENEMY-UNDEAD ARCHER in fourth, ENEMY-WEIRDING WARRIOR in fifth and ENEMY-MAGGOTS in last position. Came at me with double Melee, double magic and double ranged attack monsters, which I expected and well, nice team line-up. I was abit concerned but then, I sorta believe my two lineup will do the job. So let's see how that went🤞.

• Round 1 started, SUMMONER DARIA DRAGONSCALE grants my melee attacker LORD OF DARKNESS the +1 Melee point. ENEMY SUMMONER-DARIA DRAGONSCALE give his team of monsters same extra Melee points.

• The Enemy monsters use their abilities to Weakens, Slow, Headwind and Demoralize my two monsters on deck. Tide not looking good at all now😪

• ENEMY-UNDEAD ARCHER attacks and weakens LORD OF DARKNESS health.

• Then steps in 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 as she strikes and immediately kills ENEMY-UNDEAD PRIEST 💔-3 That was impressive👏

DO I LIKE THE 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 UNIT AND WHAT I WOULD'VE DONE DIFFERENTLY?

Dragons are my favorite cards after Earth and Water because they are so flexible and adaptable to almost any type of rule set. We should always have a DRAGONS deck to combine their great power with the rest of our cards and increase our chances of winning.

I do like 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲, because even at just level 1 this monster has two awesome abilities, decent health and protective shield to survive enemy attack. In Battle she is able to cause great damage and last longer as we saw.

She has pretty awesome Ranged, Shield and health, that's already a slam dunk. This only demonstrates that if you play the Dragon splinter and at medium mana cap of 30+, then this is definitely a card to have on deck.

If there's anything I would've done different was prolly placing her in front line and alone, see how far i push her strength in battle, i will have that in mind when the ruleset favors such again. The battle was exciting to watch and I will keep seeking more ways to engage, and hopefully afford to buy 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 at Level 1.

DID MY STRATEGIES WORK?

Yes, my strategy was very effective. This battle's lineup and strategy was simple and excellent. Although I admit it was a bit risky, after seeing the battle's rule set and my enemy's most used units, I was 95% certain what the enemy would go for and surely so.

This is why I focused on 1 melee tanker and 1 Range attacker. Also, as previously stated, this demonstrates that the strength and power of dragons are not solely based on brute force; therefore, if we think strategically and properly manage the mana available for each battle, the victory rate will undoubtedly exceed 85%.

🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 is no doubt a decent card, and this battle challenge has surely exposed it's usefulness in battle.

😊That will be all about my weekly battle with 🐲RUNIC SKYCLAW🐲 as the themed card.
