I think that participating weekly in the site challenge is very important for all players, especially for beginners because this challenge always introduces us to new monsters and makes us use these monsters in battles and experience them, and perhaps we will use these monsters continuously in our battles after this challenge because of our admiration for the monster and its abilities as well It happens to me a lot of the time.

I talk in almost all of my blogs about my love to experience a lot of monsters in this game, I love adventure and also love to try everything with something new so I always look in my battles for the best plans even if it cost me a lot of losses, but I am sure that after some time of testing I will get Amazing plans in each team, I really believe in that and you can read my last blog, in which I talked about one of the best magician teams that I used after the last update of the game, and this team was super in many battles for me, so I shared it here with you and for more details About this team you can click on the link below to read the full blog:

I always love to experiment! Give me your opinion of the magicians team in the comments.

To all the investors who like to buy monsters and keep them as NFT cards, this monster is available to all players around the world because of its very cheap price, the price of the first level of this monster is $ 1.6 and I think this price is very cheap for all Splinterlands players and everyone can Buy it directly and in addition, he has two amazing abilities, Flying and Reach, and these two abilities make this monster help the main monster and also escape from monster attacks.

Those who like to invest with large sums can also buy level 10 of this card, and then another ability is added to this card, which is Trample, and this ability is also excellent, and the price of the max level of this card ranges between $ 700 and $ 1000, but then you will have a really super card.

Let's get back to this week's challenge

As I mentioned earlier, I do not like to miss the weekly challenge of Splinter Lands because I love the new monsters that they make us share with them and with all the novice players who are looking for the best plans to play with, so today I played a great battle using the GIANT ROC and I will share with you the complete battle strategy and why I used every monster.

I played a very cool battle using this great monster and this time I used a completely different strategy and it succeeded wonderfully, I will talk here about all the details in this battle and about all the monsters that I used in it, this is the link of the battle and also this is a screenshot of my monsters and opponent’s monsters:

This monster is a GIANT ROC from the fire team so I had to use a summoner from the fire team or from the dragon team and since I love speed in battles I preferred to use this great summoner "PYRE" because it gives extra speed to all the monsters in the team and also this helps me a lot and makes my monsters are faster and attack the opponent very quickly and that's exactly what I want, he's a great summoner for me.

The first monster I used in this battle was this "LIVING LAVA" monster because for me this is one of the best monsters in the fire team because he has a great heart and also a good armor and this gives it a greater chance of life and a longer life for sure, and also has a great hit and It's 3 which makes it a super monster but the bad thing about it is its speed, this monster is very slow and its speed is only 1, and most of all, this great monster has amazing apes for me and it's a "shield" This ability splits the blow of every monster that hits on This beast, everything about this monster is amazing and makes it a very difficult monster to beat.

The second monster, that I used was this "GIANT ROC" monster, it's really a very special monster because of the two great features it has, the first is flying and this feature makes this monster escape from the opponent's monsters' strikes and that definitely gives it a much greater chance of life and the second ability is "reach" and using this ability if this monster is in second place can help my first monster by hitting the first opponent's monster and thus we can get rid of the main opponent's monster much faster and also this monster has a good heart and is 4, all these reasons make me use this monster without hesitation.

The third beast that I used in this battle was this "FURIOUS CHICKEN" beast, I always love using victims in battles and this I will talk about below so I put this monster in this position as a victim in protecting all the monsters after it, and the perfect thing about this wonderful chicken is It doesn't cost any mana cap, it's really excellent.

The fourth monster that I put in this battle was also another victim of the fire team, this monster is "SCORCH FIEND", I also used this monster to protect the last monster after it, and using this monster was really amazing, especially since it doesn't cost any mana cap.

The last monster that I used in this battle was this beast "LAVA LAUNCHER" It is a very powerful beast and I can use it and rely on it a lot but only in big battles because it needs 9 mana caps and this is a little big number, this monster has a good heart and also Great armor and this makes it hard to die, also has a powerful hit and great speed and most important of all this monster has an amazing ability which is "Close Range" and this ability makes this defender an attacker when it gets first place and it's very useful it's a really perfect monster!

Now, after I finished explaining about the monsters that I used during the battle, I want to explain what happened during the battle and how I managed to achieve victory and eliminate the opponent using this amazing plan.

What happened during the rounds?

ROUND 1

In the first round and before the start of the battle this is how my team and the opponent's team was, the opponent was using a great death squad with this excellent summoner THADDIUS BROOD.

ROUND 2

With the start of the second round, the monster that I put in second place is close to death due to the amazing ability of the thorns of the opponent's monster.

ROUND 3

At the beginning of the third round and at the end of the second round, the opponent was able to kill my monster, which I placed in second place because of the ability of the thorns that I love so much and that the first opponent’s monster has, and I also managed to kill the first opponent’s monster.

ROUND 4

After the end of the third round and the beginning of the fourth round, a lot of changes occurred, I managed to kill the first opponent's monster, but the opponent killed the first monster, and the opponent also managed to kill a victim from my team.

ROUND 5

After the end of the fourth round and with the beginning of the fifth round, the opponent managed to kill the second victim in my team, and I was close to killing the last attacker in his team.

ROUND 6

With the beginning of the sixth round, there was only one monster left in each team, and the defender usually did not hit in the first place, as happened with the opponent’s monster, but because of the amazing ability that my monster had, it began hitting and I managed to win.

ROUND 7

And also in the seventh round, two hearts remain for the opponent's monster to die, and this was the last round and the final blow!

Battle Analysis

Did the battle go well and as I planned it?
Of course the battle went perfectly and I think that everything in this battle went exactly as I planned it, the victims that I placed had a big role in achieving victory for me in addition to the wonderful monsters that I used!

Was GIANT ROC good in battle?
Yes, this monster was great in this battle and helped me a lot in killing the first opponent’s monster quickly because of the amazing abilities it possesses, which is access and flight, they are wonderful abilities as I explained about them previously, but because of the thorns ability of the opponent’s monster, this monster died quickly unfortunately.

What strategy did I use in battle?
This battle required 24 mana caps, and this is considered an average number, so some powerful monsters were used in this battle, which needed a large number of mana caps, and I also tried to rely very heavily on the victims in distracting opponent's monsters and this helped me in protecting my last monster!
The opponent was relying on a summoner from the death squad, and this summoner is THADDIUS BROOD, This summoner reduces the heart of all opponent's monsters by 1 and also reduces the opponent's magic strike power by 1, but this ability was not useful to my opponent in this battle because I did not rely on witches.
In this battle I used an amazing monster in the front and also a very powerful monster in the back with a great ability, this played a big role in my victory as well!
