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 and here is one more ability analysis. This time I am going to discuss about backfire ability. Today in this post I will discuss about fire & water 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.

TENYII STRIKER is a rare rarity fire element chaos legion core edition melee attack monster. It's got a maximum of 5 melee attack, 7 health & 4 speed on max level. TENYII STRIKER got a total of 3 abilities, sneak ability from level 1, dodge ability from level 4 and backfire ability from level 7. TENYII STRIKER has both dodge ability & backfire ability, so it will be powerful against melee/range attack monsters. It costs 5 mana, so it's not suitable for little league ruleset battle.
