Vonak: A Sneak to the Cards of Rebellion Part II

Edition	Rebellion
Mana Cost	4
Element	Neutral
Rarity	Rare
Card Type	Magic
Abilities	Lvl 1 - Weapons Training Lvl 4 - Phase Lvl 8 - Camouflage
RF Burn Value	20
GF Burn Value	500

For a Rare neutral monster, Moxian Rebel does not have much of an attack even when it reaches max level but what it has was the Weapons Training ability which gives adjacent monsters with no damage its magic attack which will not be removed even when it was defeated or even with Clense . It also got Phase which allows it to evade magic attacks and Camouflage which hides it from stealth attacks.

For some combinations, it can get a magic boost from Obsidian or give it the with Immortalis. Having an armor, it can also potentially make good combinations with Grandmaster Rathe. Most of all, there are a plethora of non- damage cards that it can give its magic damage specially since it was a neutral card.

Some Non-Damage Monsters to give Magic damage with Weapons Training

• Redwyrm Dragon

Edition	Rebellion
Mana Cost	9
Element	Dragon
Rarity	Epic
Card Type	Magic
Abilities	Lvl 1 - Flying Lvl 1 - Immunity Lvl 5 - Stun
RF Burn Value	100
GF Burn Value	2500

Redwyrm Dragon is a 9- mana Dragon card. It only has 2 magic damage but it has a lot of health and armor together with its amazing speed. At level 1, it already posses both Flying and Immunity which not only allow it to evade attacks but to also be immune on all negative status effect and an ideal choice during Earthquake and Noxious Fumes ruleset. As for its last ability, it got stun that can prevent the target to attack for a turn.

Earthquake	Non-flying Monsters take 2 Melee damage at the end of each round.
Noxious Fumes	All Monsters start the battle Poisoned.

• Runeseer Sevaya

Edition	Rebellion
Mana Cost	4
Element	Dragon
Rarity	Legendary
Card Type	Default
Abilities	Lvl 1 - Cleanse Lvl 1 - Protect Lvl 2 - Blind Lvl 3 - Repair Lvl 4 - Amplify
RF Burn Value	500
GF Burn Value	12500

Runeseer Sevaya was so far, my favorite card on this batch of revealed cards. Although it does not have damage, it got Cleanse that removes any negative status effects on the tank and Protect that can gives all allied monsters with 2 armor only at level 1. When it reaches level 2, it gains Blind Blind which increase evasion chance by 15% and at level 3 gains Repair to restore an ally armor. Finally, at level 4, it gains Amplify which increase damage of reflected damage

It was a very amazing support with a wide range of utility for a wide range of rulesets and since this was a dragon card, it can be use in combination of other elements and also can be use on Little League ruleset. Also, we have now lots of monsters with Weapon's Training ability, including the neutral card Moxian Rebel above so even if it does not have damage, it can be given an attack and at the same time, diversify the attack types that can be given depending on the situation.

Weapon's Trainer Cards

By placing Runeseer Sevaya anywhere close to any of this cards, it can gain damage depending on which card was next to it and perhaps even different attack types such as magic and range when it was between Skok Duskblight and Zyriel or melee and magic when it was between Kulu Mastermind and Moxian Rebel.

And that was my take on the second batch of the Rebellion Cards that was revealed by the Splinterlands team together with the initial combination and strategies that I could think for them at the moment. I'm still not sure whether this strategies would work when the rest of the Rebellion cards were revealed but thinking of such strategies just makes me more excited about this set.

Thank you and see you on my next post.
