Hello, everyone, and welcome to my second Splinterlands weekly battle.

You can find my notes and thoughts under the video.

(Edit: had to reupload video: Brave browser in fullscreen + NVIDIA recording + Splinterlands = bugged videos for me.)

The direct link to the battle is below:

My line-up:

SLlineup110421.png

-Tell us about your line-up. Explain why you put each card in that position and why they are a good fit with Dragon Spirit.

I use Kelp Initiate level 3 here to Cleanse the Poison off of my position one. Because it has 5 health, it can potentially Cleanse two or even three monsters under the right conditions. I use the Robo-Dragon Knight as the target for the Cleanse, but in this battle, my position 2 gets Cleansed as well.

Level 6 Gelatinous Cube is very powerful in both Earthquake and Noxious Fumes. Heal + Scavenger gives it amazing sustain.

I then throw on a couple of high-DPS magic monsters on the tail end to do a bit of damage before they die.

-Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?

It worked perfectly. As you can see, the Dragon Spirit just sits in the mid-section of my line-up, taking no damage and just outlasting. There is a Splinterbites tip about simply 'outlasting' your opponent, and it is very often accurate.

-Do you like Dragon Spirit? Why or why not?

Once it has both Flying and Immunity at level 3, Dragon Spirit is a perfect middle-position card for both Earthquake and Noxious Fumes rulesets. And if you ever happen to get both Earthquake AND Noxious Fumes, a well placed Dragon Spirit can assure a win by taking no damage from either.

Getting it to level 5 or above would also add Redemption, which gives you a bit of damage on the card as a last resort.


That's it! I'm enjoying making these. I think you can expect at least a third next week so stay tuned.

Keep battling!
