Splinterlands | ARCANE SKINWALKER’s ability combo is just insane

---

Hello Splinterlands fam!

I hope all of you are doing well in life and enjoying the day with your loved ones. If you are a splinterlands enthusiast, then I guess you are preparing for the upcoming sale event of both the Voucher card and the Yaba’s Pickle. On the other hand, another ranked season has ended just recently and by now, most probably you have already claimed your EOS rewards and started playing for this current ranked season. The current season has a long 12 days and 18 hours left to meet its end, so there's plenty of time for all of us to reach our goals, whether it is to reach a particular league tier or to compete against the finest warriors in splinterlands to secure a place on the leaderboard. Since the launch of the newest conclave Arcana edition into the game, the traffic has increased significantly in the game and not to mention that all the players are pretty busy right now discovering new strategies and combos using these powerful cards. So, if you are one of them and working hard to come up with undefeated strategies, all the best to you and may you be victorious.

Now moving forward, let me come to the main topic of this post as today, I will be talking about a special Conclave Arcana card and as you have already seen it in the thumbnail above, yes, it is the mighty Arcane Skinwalker. So, if you are interested in knowing more about it and why it is important to be in your collection, let’s take a dive without any further ado.

Arcane Skinwalker

Arcane Skinwalker is a special and promo card that came into existence with the introduction of the conclave Arcana edition cards in the game. This one is rare and you can’t find this monster in any of the Conclave Arcana booster packs, because just like Gramel the Hunger, this card was distributed only among the players who bought packs in the presale. Now, I was lucky to get 120 BCXs of standard foil and 5 BCXs of Gold Foil of this card for my contribution in the Presale, where I bought 417 Alchemy Conclave Arcana booster packs. The price of this card, as expected, is higher than other normal Rare type CA cards, where the regular foils are selling for almost 1$ per BCX and the Gold Foils are selling for almost 9$ per BCX.

Now, taking a look at this card's stats, by rarity, it is a Rare type card, so you will need a total of 115 BCXs of cards to upgrade this monster to max level. This monster belongs to the neutral element, so you can easily use this card while selecting any element if allowed by the rulesets of that match. Talking about mana cost, it takes a whopping 8 mana to be used in your battle lineup, so this card is suitable to be placed in your lineup when playing medium to large mana limit matches. The attack type of this card is magic and it comes with a strong combo of Armour and Health with decent speed, along with 4 amazing abilities that I will be talking about later in the post. But first, let’s take a look at the league wise stats and abilities of this card.

Bronze

At level 2, this monster gets 2 magic attack power at 2 speed with 4 armour and 5 health and it also gets the Shapeshift ability from this level onwards. The large armour + health combo will help this card endure multiple attacks before going down and thus, you can use this card as defence before your weaker cards to buy them more time.

Painforge - This monster is now treated as all bloodlines.

Silver

When this card gets upgraded to level 4, it receives the same 2 magic attack at 2 speed with 4 armour and an increased 6 health. Not only that, but it also gets a new ability called Inspire from level 3 onwards.

Inspire - This monster gives +1 melee attack power to all friendly monsters.

Gold

When you upgrade this card to level 6, its stats get upgraded further to 2 magic attack at 3 speed with 4 armour and 6 health and upon reaching this level, this monster gets another ability called Camouflage.

Camouflage - This monster can no longer be targeted directly unless it is in the first position. However, it does not affect indirect attacks (e.g. - Scattershot, Blast Splash damage or Trample) or wingbreak.

Diamond / Champion

Finally when you upgrade this monster to max level 8, it possesses an increased 3 magic attack power at 3 speed with 4 armour and 6 health and not to mention, it also gets another new ability called Silence upon reaching max level. By now, this monster does look powerful enough to justify its big 8 mana cost, doesn't it?

Silence - This monster gives -1 magic power to all enemy monsters.

As you can clearly see, this monster is suitable to be used along with multiple melee attacking monsters, while you can also select it to weaken enemy magic monsters. And do not forget to utilise its painforge ability while keeping it at a rear position to make it invisible to those enemy monsters. Overall, it is quite a good card to hold, I think and let me know if you are already using this card in the battlefield and getting good results.
