Ability Analysis - Backfire [Earth, Death, Dragon & Neutral]

Hello, my fellow splinterlands lovers!
I hope you all are doing well in your life and also enjoying the Splinterlands game. As you guys know, I have been writing content on Splinterland's Ability Analysis. A few days ago I discussed about
fire &
water element monsters who have
backfire ability. Today in this post I will discuss about
earth,
death,
dragon &
neutral element monsters who have
backfire ability.
About
Backfire Ability: "If an enemy misses this Monster with an attack, the attacker takes 2 damage." A total of 9 monsters have
backfire ability; one is a summoner. Only chaos legion core, reward & riftwatchers edition monsters have this ability atm. It can be good by pairing with
dodge,
phase,
flying &
swiftness ability monsters. So let's check out those monsters and find out how good/bad they are on the battlefield.



VENARI KNIFER is a common rarity
earth element chaos legion core edition
melee attack monster. It's got a maximum of 4
melee attack, 9
health & 6
speed on max level. VENARI KNIFER got a total of 2 abilities, It's got
thorns ability from level 1 &
backfire ability from level 6. As it got a high number of speed, health and
thorns ability, so it will be powerful against
melee attack monster. It costs 6 mana, so it's not suitable for
little league ruleset battle.

PELACOR DECEIVER is a common rarity
death element chaos legion reward card edition
melee attack monster. It's got a maximum of 3
melee attack, 10
health & 5
speed on max level. It's got a total of 3 abilities, from level 1 it's got
flying ability (which gives +25% chance of evading
melee &
range atttack),
backfire ability from level 6 &
retaliate ability on level 10/max level. PELACOR DECEIVER can use
flying ability &
backfire ability from
gold league and on
diamond league it can also use
retaliate ability, so it can be great card if it pair with
blind ability monster (unless there is a
true strike ability monster in opponent team).
