On the battlefield.

In the beginning of this battle most of my monsters were targeting my opponent's WARRIOR OF PEACE. My SAND WORM was attacking LONE BOATMAN. And my SHADOWY PRESENCE protected SAND WORM from behind. My opponent's monsters were mostly targeting my LORD OF DARKNESS and SAND WORM was attacking my SHADOWY PRESENCE.

In round 2 enemy snipers were harming my CTHULHU. And opponent's SAND WORM killed my SAND WORM. How is that fair? I wanted it to be one of my main weapons in this battle but it died so soon... Well at least my team destroyed WARRIOR OF PEACE and made SAND WARM less dangerous by pushing it into first position...But still at this time things were not looking good.

In round 3 I destroyed opponent's SAND WORM. But my CTHULHU took a lot of damage so I was still worried about the outcome of this battle.

This round was weird. My CTHULHU started dodging bullets arrows. And my team killed opponent's healer. Maybe this battle is winnable after all?

In round 5 my CTHULHU was STILL DODGING ranged attacks. Stubborn bastard simply refused to die. Also my monsters beat TEMPLE PRIEST. This meant that I won this battle after all because at this point ANCIENT LICH had gained a lot of health and my opponent only had ranged monsters remaining.

At this time my CTHULHU FINALLY FELL. If it would have survived entire battle I would think that it was immortal.

In round 7 at last my remaining team destroyed 2 snipers that my opponent still had. Victory is mine.

                                   Battle Results   

In this battle I won 6.374 Dec and 20 League Rating. My strategy worked well- I protected my ANCIENT LICH long enough to claim victory against opponent who was much higher level than I am. But I also was very lucky because my opponent missed multiple ranged attacks on my CTHULHU.

On the battlefield.

In the beginning of this battle most of my monsters were targeting my opponent's NECTAR QUEEN and doing some damage to UNICORN MUSTANG with Blast. My SAND WORM was attacking CENTAURI MAGE and also damaging SAND WORM. My opponent's team was mostly targeting my FLESH GOLEM. Opponent's SAND WORM was attacking my OAKEN BEHEMOTH. My NECTAR QUEEN also took some damage due to Blast.

In the beginning of round 2 my OAKEN BEHEMOTH killed opponent's NECTAR QUEEN. In this round my SAND WORM also destroyed CENTAURI MAGE and SAND WORM. At this point I already knew that I won this battle. My opponent's team now only had 3 monsters while my team was barely damaged.

In round 3 my team continued to destroy my opponent's monsters. Both FLESH GOLEM and UNICORN MUSTANG fell in this round. My team remained strong.

At this point the only thing standing between me and victory was half dead ELVEN DEFENDER. Beating this monster was just a formality. In the end my entire team survived this battle.

                                  Battle Results

In this battle I won 7.259 Dec and 3 League Rating. This time everything worked in my favor. I was higher level than my opponent and Blast ability worked well together with my high damage dealing team. Especially with Sand Worm and its 5 attack power. This battle was much easier than the other battle I shared in this post. But I think that those domination victories can be fun as well.

I hope that you enjoyed my battles. If you would also like to start playing splinterlands and earning by making posts about your battles or by making art inspired by splinterlands please consider using my referral link:
