Splinterlands Weekly Battle Challenge - Chaos Knight - The Giant Killer!
Hey folks 😁 Graham here.
Welcome to another Splinterlands Weekly Battle Challenge. Here is the original post if you want to enter a battle yourselves.
This week we are featuring a melee attack monster from Chaos legion called Chaos Knight!
Splinterlore
Chaos Knights are most often found at the front line of the Chaos Legion's invading forces, although they are sometimes enlisted to defend garrisons, leadership, and other high-value assets. They are heavily armored and wield massive battle axes that are able to cut down even the mightiest of foes.
This is a card i had not used before as it didn't look anything special at level 1 but when you take a closer look at the stats you can see it gains some nice abilities at higher levels and the extra hit point at level 3 makes all the difference.
Rarity: Common
Element: Life
Attack: Melee
Abilities: Shield at Level 1, Giant Killer at Level 4 and Inspire at Level 10.
Attack damage gets halved (rounded up), except attack 1 which deals 0 damage.
Reduces the Thorns damage to 1.
Cancel Redemption damage.
This is a great new ability and definitely one to watch out for as it could be used as a defence against all the new high mana cards that have been released recently such as Chaos Dragon, Grum Flameblade and Uriel The Purifier.
Did you know: If you can use the Inspire ability twice in one battle, your Melee attacks will be catastrophic for the enemy
This is a 25 mana level battle with only the Life + Death Splinters allowed.
I have 5 cards in this battle against 5!
Life vs Death
Ruleset = Equalizer + Holy Protection
Equalizer = The initial Health of all Monsters is equal to that of the Monster on either team with the highest base Health.
Holy Protection = All Monsters have the Divine Shield ability.
This is a great summoner with amazing abilities that can help keep your tank alive such as Armour Repair, Triage and Resurrect!
Resurrect is also a great ability to use in the Holy Protection Ruleset!
I am using Chaos Knight for my tank as he will gain extra health from the Equaliser Ruleset and my summoner should be able to keep him alive!
This monster is in second place to provide healing to my tank.
This creepy monster is here to slow down the enemy!
This great monster is here to provide magic attack support from the rear!
Never forget your Chicken!!
The chicken will act as cannon fodder for any sneak attacks from the enemy.
Always willing to lay down her life for the team :)
As the warriors enter the arena we get our first look at the enemy. It seems like we are quite evenly matched and with the Equalizer ruleset this battle is set to be a long one!
Round one kicks off and we see a lot if action before any fatalities.
We finally have our first death in round 4 when my Divine Healer destroys the enemies tank Crypt Beetle.
As you can see my tank is very hard to kill with Chanseus constantly repairing his armour and health and also Divine Healer with Tank Heal.
At the start of round 7 we see Prismatic Energy obliterating the Silent Sha-Vi monster.
We see no fatalities here. The enemies monster Venari Bonesmith has the Life Leech ability making it hard to destroy!
At the end of round 13 the Spellsmith is finally defeated with Chaos Knight delivering the killing blow!
In round 16 we also see Chaos Knight wiping out Soul Strangler with ease.
Its carnage on the battlefield!
Victory is assured at this point. Watch as my team pick off the last enemy!
This was a great battle i really enjoyed writing about and i would use the same line up again.
Check out this Great Battle to see him in action!
If you sign up with my Referral Link and purchase the Summoner's Spellbook i will delegate you 5 cards to help you get started. At least one of these will be rare or higher.
