Peaceful Giant- Refugee Giants of splinterlands

avatar
I've always wondered why its name is peaceful giant then thanks to the splinterlands weekly challenge that made me read its Lore. After reading Lore of the peaceful giant I got to know they used to live far across the water. Then due to some unwanted terrible threat, they fled and crossed all waters by swimming. They are so peaceful that they decided to leave threat instead of facing :P XD. I know we all have giants stories in our childhood and who would have thought one day I will be playing with a giant and that giant would be peaceful. In our childhood tales, I have heard giants have always been furious, dangerous. But wait our splinterlands giant is so peaceful that you don't have to worry at all.

When I joined splinterlands and I had a peaceful giant in my collection I used to think what a useless card it is. It has no use case and why would I even have this in my collection. I placed it on the market and I still remember clove bought my card. I thought she loves buying useless cards but since she was a top player of splinterlands she knew its worth pretty well. Now I know how useful it is and I have purchased maxed peaceful giant. I don't buy cards when they are dirt cheap I always buy when they are damn expensive :/ Such is life :( anyways it is what it is.

Stats

It is stats less :P I mean it doesn't have any ability nor attack. You need 505 BCX in order to max it up and it gives you 17 HP at a maxed level.

Then what is a use case?

Peaceful giant is a very useful card in back to basics ruleset where all monsters lose their abilities. Also, I have seen people use it in normal ruleset because of its High Hp. It takes a lot of damage from your opponent and gives you enough time to kill your opponent. I have also seen people place it in the second position when they sense the Yodin Zaku attack. It takes a lot of blast attack and helps your rest of the monsters to attack your enemy.

Ruleset

I was given one and only rule Back to basics. And honestly, I use peaceful giant in only back to basics rulest. I never try to experience it in other rulesets.

My Line-up



  • Yodin Zaku
  • Finease Rage
  • Peaceful giant
  • Prismatic energy
  • Pyromaniac
  • Mantoid
  • Elemental Phoenix

When I get a high mana cap with back to basics ruleset I always go with a Fire splinter because of Yodin Zaku. I went with Yodin Zaku and I placed Finease Rage in the first position. It has super fast speed along with a super cool melee attack. Next, I placed peaceful giant, the theme of the week. As expected my opponent came up with Yodin Zaku as well. My finease Rage and other high-speed monsters didn't allow magnor to attack so it was a wastage of mana cap by my opponent. Next, I used Prismatic energy it also has decent Hp along with three magic attack and 5 speed. I placed Pyromaniac in the 4th position. It does have a strong ranged attack Hp is just ok. My next placement was Mantoid and it has 7 hp along with 5 speed. It gives you a 5 ranged attack so a strong ranged attack gives more damage to your opponent. Lastly, I used Elemental Phoenix it also has 5 speed but it gives 5 magic attack. There should be one monster with the magic attack in the last position that could hold battle until the last moment. I won this battle and I was sure I will because I used peaceful giant :P XD

LOL! I love reading your opening paragraphs. It's like I get to know you a little more each time.
So... for me, my childhood memory of giants are positive. One of my favorite books growing up was The BFG (Big Friendly Giant). I think I read a hundred times. 🥰

And yes! I'm the same! I was always like, "Why do I need this 'peaceful giant' with no attack?" Come to find out, he is pretty useful, especially now with Yodin Zaku stalking the Splinterlands.😎

P.S. Thank you for curating SL contest. You rock!
