DRAGONS

Dragons are the most insidious splinter of the Splinterlands. And the most expensive. But it's worth it! When I first started playing, and I had dragons as opponents, I was perplexed at all: "How can you play against them? Now that there's a daily focus, it's easier to read my opponent. About 80% of opponents play one splinter. So those who have a thick deck of cards with different shards have found it easier to be unpredictable. As a result, you can earn more season rewards for less effort. An ideal option to expand your deck, are dragons. After all, with a few good cards in each splinter, all you need is a dragon summoner to be unpredictable in those battles when you need it.

My Team

SplinterMana CostPositionReason
Daria_lv34Summoner+1 to melee attack, and the ability to use another splinter's monsters.

Total Mana:34I used up all my mana, filling all positions thanks to two monsters for 0 mana.

RULESETS

image

HEALED OUT does not allow monsters to heal during battle. This means that you have to bet on a maximum and fast attack and, if possible, shield defense. I use a fat tank with the TAUNT ability to attack the enemy as long as possible without worrying about defense. LOST MAGIC does not allow the use of mages in this battle. This means that monsters with shield, high speed and FLYING, will look perfect in this battle. Also, the fact that you can use any shard in this battle, except Water, means that it's unlikely we'll see an opponent with a lot of shields.

Strategy for Battle

The strategy for the battle was as follows:

Raging Impaler on the first position and Dhampir Stalker on the 5th position are able to take out any tank in the first two rounds, but they need protection. Therefore, the first 2-3 rounds they are protected by Dark Ha'on on the second position, diverting all attacks to themselves.

In the third and sixth positions are monsters for 0 mana in case Dark Ha'on fails. Then, after Raging Impaler dies, I'll have an extra turn for my opponent. He'll have to spend it on a Corpse Fiend attack. Or if Raging Impaler is still alive, Corpse Fiend will protect my monsters from monsters with the OPPORTUNITY ability. For the same reason, Furious Chiсken is in last position, only it protects against monsters with SNEAK ability.

Dragon Jumper in seventh position takes out the monsters that survive Raging Impaler and Dhampir Stalker. He is in the seventh position to stay alive as long as possible and protects Dhampir Stalker in case they are left alone in this battle. His FLYING ability and speed 5 will allow him to get many misses if necessary.

Let's see how my round-by-round strategy worked out.

ROUND 1

Start

End

image

My opponent's bet was also on the monster Shieldbearer with the ability TAUNT, which will distract my monsters to themselves. And also Armorsmith, who would restore the shield every round. But my tank was fatter, and my monsters were faster and with more attack. So at the end of the first round my tank was with 8 health, my opponent had 3 health and 2 shields.

ROUND 2

image

I finish the second round without losses, but I take out the opponent's tank.

ROUND 3

image

In the third round I lose a tank, I leave alive only three enemy monsters, two of them ranged. Victory remained a matter of time.

ROUND 4-5

image

image

In the end, I didn't lose any more monsters except Dark Ha'on. And that's a win this time.

Conclusion

The team played exactly as I had hoped. Some of the monsters I put up for defense weren't even needed. The opponent didn't choose the best shard for this battle. I knew he would play it that way, because I had watched his previous 5 battles. So I roughly understood that my tank should last a little longer, and then I will draw his ranged monsters to the first position, from which they can not attack. That's basically how it worked out.

If I had to replay this game, I wouldn't change anything about it. The whole team is so well placed that it is impossible to change anything. But based on the opposing team, it would be better to put Furious Chiсken in fourth position, pushing Raging Impaler and Dhampir Stalker to the end.

That's all for now, hope this was as useful for you as it was for me!

Yes, they catch me all the time. Especially when I don't see them in my opponent's last five battles.)

I wonder what you are referring to with 250 PIZZA tips (which in total will give you 25 PIZZAs), when you just need 20 PIZZAs (based on https://ecency.com/@thebeardflex/hivepizza-or-witness-updates-reward-and-bot-changes-and-more) to start tipping 0.1 PIZZAs 5 times a day. 🤔🤯😅

Ok, it seems that it was "only" 20 !PIZZA, my mistake. I might have been confusing it with Beer or Wine...
The next problem I'm having is that already for the second day I'm out of Resources Credits before I'm ready with answering and commenting and giving tokens.... :-(
I thought it was connected with Vote Power, but it isn't! Meanwhile I'm at 92% Vote power and still I haven't got enough resource credits to post. Any idea how I can follow up on this and where / how do I see if I'm almost out of these resource Credits and can't post / comment any more?

You must have 24 staked BEER to tip 0.1 BEER once a day, and 25 staked WINEX to tip (as well as receive) 0.1 WINEX once a day. 🤓

It is recommended to keep your Voting Mana as high as possible, but not let it reach exactly 100%. 🤓

By looking at your #HiveBlocks profile at https://hiveblocks.com/@svanbo, you will see your Voting Mana and Resource Credits. 😏 The next time you run out of Resource Credits to post or comment, you may use #GiftGiver (https://giftgiver.site/) to request delegation of at least 10 Hive Power from @giftgiver (provided that it has enough HP to delegate and you don't have an existing delegation from @giftgiver). 🤓

Thanks for the !CTP! 😀 Have a !PIZZA in return! 😁

Now that I see the name Hiveblocks I remembered the name and looked it up in my (long) excel sheet, and yes, htere it is, I've been writing it down already, but forgot about it :-( It looks like I can do only 11 more comments :-( so it isn't related with my vote power which is at 100% now. This I don't understand because I'm on automated vote for quite some people. I've been checking and it is turned on, as is the curation trail I'm following... I've changed it now from 10% to 20% for all, let's see what it brings.... Now that I've got !PIZZA (thanks for your Pizzagift by the way), my next objective will be WINEX. I'm now at 10.7 so the 25 should be reachable as well in a matter of time...
giftgiver must have been reading your comment (or did you trigger it?) cause now I've got 10 HP delegated :-)
I've been using this giftgiver site in the beginning that I was on Hive, and than they gifted a small amount when one did the capture. After a while it wasn't working anymore. I returned several times and gave up on it.

Your comment has many topics, so I'm confused about which one to respond to first. 🤯😅

  1. Your #HiveBlocks profile
  2. The amount of comments you can still publish (based on your Resource Credits)
  3. Your automated voting by following a Curation Trail (on #HiveVote)
  4. Your next Hive tip token goal (which is WINEX)
  5. The HP delegation of #GiftGiver to you

Well actually point nr 3 !LOL: I don't get why my automated voting isn't working. The only thing I can think of is that it takes a day or so before it's in place and working...

You should check your Curation Trail, Voting Mana, and Minimum Voting Threshold on #HiveVote to help determine why your automated voting isn't working. 🤓 Take note that posts in certain communities (such as #DBuzz) don't get automatically voted. 🤓🤓

Thanks for the !LOL and the !CTP! 😀

Yes, I'll have to look into it in more detail, because I see some posts are getting an automated vote and others that are also supposed to get, don't. Thanks for the LOL and !CTP. Here's some !PIZZA for you
