Let's talk about the new rulesets: Aimless [ESP-ENG]
Splinterlands esta renovandose cada cierto tiempo y agregando elementos que le dan variedad al juego, eso ademas de ser positivo para el juego, nos ayuda a no caer en rutina pero tambien a mantenernos pendientes de los cambios para no quedarnos atras, y uno de los mas visibles son los nuevos rulesets, hoy hablare especificamente de uno de ellos, el ruleset Aimless.
Splinterlands most often is renewing itself all the elements of the game from time to time and adding elements that give variety to the game, that besides being positive for the game, helps us not to fall into a routine but also to keep us aware of the changes to not fall behind, and one of the most visible are the new rulesets, today I will talk specifically about one of them, the Aimless ruleset.
¿Que hace el ruleset?
Este ruleset si que es bastante imponente cuando aparece y es que le otorga la habilidad Scattershot a todas las cartas en la batalla.
El efecto de la habilidad Scattershot es que todas las cartas de ataque a distancia y mágico cambian su objetivo a uno aleatorio en cada turno, asi que de entrada ya sabemos que este ruleset va a ser muy determinante, ya que durante la batalla puede pasar cualquier cosa que cambie el curso de la misma y creo que eso la hace muy divertida de mirar.
Aqui arriba tienes una imagen donde puedes ver todas las cartas que hasta ahora tienen la habilidad Scattershot, son solo 9 cartas y la razon es que esta habilidad es muy nueva, llego con la edicion Chaos Legion y es por eso que tenemos tan pocas cartas que la usan. Creo que es justo por esa razon que aparecio este ruleset, para darle mas protagonismo al uso de esta habilidad. Hasta ahora solo 1 invocador la posee, que es Conqueror jacek, uno de los invocadores legendarios de Chaos Legion.
What does the ruleset do?
This ruleset is quite impressive when it appears on the battles and it gives the Scattershot ability to all cards in the battle.
The effect that produces the the Scattershot ability is that all the ranged and magic attack cards change their target to a random one every turn, so we already know that this ruleset is going to be very decisive, because during the battle anything can happen that changes the course of the battle and I think that makes it very fun to watch.
Here above this text you have an image of Splintercards where you can see all the cards that so far have the Scattershot ability, there are only 9 cards and the reason is that this ability is very new, it came with the Chaos Legion edition and that's why we have so few cards that use it. I think it is just for that reason that this ruleset appeared, to give more prominence to the use of this ability. So far only 1 summoner has it, that is Conqueror Jacek, one of the legendary Chaos Legion summoners.
Como mencione en el post del ruleset Tis but Scratches, en este ruleset es una perdida de tiempo utilizar a Conqueror Jacek salvo que necesites si o si sus otros dos buffs en tu alineación, pero yo no te lo recomendaría.
Hay muchísimas cartas que se pueden beneficiar de este ruleset, sobre todo las que tienen mucha velocidad porque ya sabemos que atacan primero y eso es muy importante, un ataque potente puede hacer la diferencia. Lo que me llama mucho la atencion de este ruleset es es que puede atacar a aquellas cartas que se suelen esconder porque no tienen mucha vida, y con eso dañar una estrategia entera en un par de turnos, no hay nada seguro en estas batallas porque los ataques son aleatorios lo que hace que sea muy dificil contrarrestarlo.
As I mentioned in the previous post, about the Tis but Scratches ruleset post, in this ruleset it's a waste of time to use Conqueror Jacek unless you need his other two buffs in your lineup, but I wouldn't recommend it.
There are many cards on the game right now that can benefit from this ruleset, especially those with a lot of speed because we already know that they attack first and that is very important, a powerful attack can make the difference. What strikes me a lot about this ruleset is that it can attack those cards that usually hide because they do not have much life, and with that damage an entire strategy in a couple of turns, there is nothing safe in these battles because the attacks are random which makes it very difficult to counter it.
¿Como hacerle counter?
La verdad es que no hay forma de hacerle counter a este ruleset. Lo que si puedes hacer es ignorarlo tu para asegurar al menos tus ataques y es que tienes que decidir si ir con todo aleatorio o lanzar tus ataques seguros. ¿Como se hace? simple, enviando una alineación entera de cartas Melee, ya que la habilidad Scattershot no se aplica a las cartas que tienen este tipo de ataque.
La desventaja de esto es que estarías controlando tus propios ataques pero tu oponente puede que si utilice los aleatorios y dejarte fuera de combate en un turno con mala suerte donde mas de una de sus cartas con Scattershot ataque a la misma carta en tu alineación.
Otra cosa que debes saber es que este ruleset hace que la habilidad Taunt se anule, ya que tus cartas con Scattershot atacaran de forma aleatoria, aunque eso si, las cartas con ataque Melee que puedan atacar en la linea secundaria si van a atacar a la carta con Taunt. Toma eso en cuenta.
How to counter it?
The truth about this is that there on the game right now is no way to counter this ruleset. What you can do is to ignore it yourself to ensure at least your attacks and you have to decide whether to go with all random or launch your safe attacks. How is it done? Simple, by sending an entire lineup of Melee cards, since the Scattershot ability does not apply to cards that have this type of attack.
The disadvantage about all this is that you would be controlling your own attacks with your cards but your opponent cards may use the random ones and leave you out of combat in a single turn with bad luck where more than one of his cards with Scattershot attacks the same card in your lineup.
Another thing you should consider to the fullestis that this ruleset cancels the Taunt ability, since your cards with Scattershot will attack randomly, although the cards with Melee attack that can attack in the secondary line will attack the card with Taunt. Take that into account.
Habilidades recomendadas para este ruleset.
Blast.
Con ataques aleatorios corres el riesgo de que ataques a una de las dos cartas de los extremos y el daño por salpicadura se reduzca, pero igual es buenisimo por esas veces en la que si atacaras a las cartas en medio.
Double Strike.
Las cartas con esta habilidad atacaran dos veces, tambien de forma aleatoria. Ahora que se pueden usar cartas Gladius en batalla, Larissa Kerato combina estas dos habilidades en diamante, bestial.
Halving.
con el ataque aleatorio puedes ir aplicando la reducción de ataque a múltiples cartas del oponente en cada turno, no tengo que explicar por que eso es bueno.
Hay muchas mas que tambien son mucho mas peligrosas con este ruleset, como el veneno o Shatter.
Recommended skills for this ruleset.
- Blast.
With the random attacks activate you may run the risk of attacking one of the two end cards and the splash damage is reduced, but it's still great for those times when you will attack the cards in the middle.
- Double Strike.
Those cards with this ability will attack twice per turn, and also randomly. Now that the Gladius cards can be used in battle with new summoners, Larissa Kerato combines these two abilities in diamond, beastly.
- Halving.
with the random attack active you can apply the Halving attack reduction to multiple cards each turn and make damage, I don't have to explain why that's good.
There are many others that are also much more dangerous with this ruleset, such as poison or Shatter.
Esta batalla es una muestra de como funciona la habilidad Scattershot, esos ataques aleatorios son muy peligrosos para cartas como Gargoya Devil, Djinn Inferni puede eliminar de un solo ataque a dos de mis cartas, por ejemplo. El Recharge también es muy peligroso porque todas mis cartas caeran de un solo golpe ante ese ataque, ese daño aleatorio combinado me dejó fuera de combate en esta batalla.
This battle is a perfect example of how the Scattershot ruleset works on the battles, those random attacks are very dangerous for the weak cards like Gargoya Devil, Djinn Inferni can eliminate two of my cards with a single attack, for example. The Recharge is also very dangerous because all my cards will fall in one hit with that attack, that combined random damage knocked me out in this battle.
Esta batalla resume todo lo que yo he hablado en este post asi que es una gran forma de llevar a la practica todo lo que escribi aqui. Esta batalla me hizo dar cuenta que la habilidad Triage es buenisima para hacerle frente al Scattershot ya que ese daño aleatorio se reparte entre varias cartas normalmente, asi que tener cartas que curen a tu segunda linea es una gran forma de hacerle frente al ruleset.
This battle sums up very very good everything I've talked about in this post so it's a great way to put into practice everything I've written here above. This battle made me realize that the Triage ability is a great way to deal with Scattershot since that random damage is usually spread out among several cards, so having cards that heal your second line is a great way to deal with the ruleset.
Conclusiones.
Me gustan mucho las batallas que tienen este ruleset porque como ya he dicho, el azar juega mucho en ellas, y quizas si eso te hace perder vas a molestarte pero tambien van a haber ocasiones en la que justamente ese azar te hara ganar, tu solo debes saber disfrutar cada victoria y aprender de cada derrota, como sea, este ruleset es uno mas que impulsa a los jugadores a pensar bien las cartas que estan enviando a la batalla y eso siempre es un buen añadido.
Conclusions.
I really like those battles that have this Aimless ruleset because as I said on this post, the chance plays a lot in them, and maybe if that makes you lose you will be upset but there will also be times when just that chance will make you win, you just have to know how to enjoy every victory and learn from every defeat, however, this ruleset is one more that encourages players to think well the cards they are sending to battle and that is always a good addition to the game.
