Good morning, everyone. Those who play Splinterlands regularly know very well that to survive in this game and move forward on the leaderboard, you have to constantly update your card collection or deck. I have been thinking deeply about buying a new and different powerful summoner for my deck for quite some time. I was especially feeling the lack of a good-quality dragon summoner in my gameplay.

As you know, the biggest and most attractive advantage of dragon cards is that they can be easily combined with any other element in the game. It is possible to create a great combination with any team, fire, water, or earth. So, dragon summoner is always on my first choice list in terms of flexibility and tactical advantages. Finally, after much thought, I decided to buy a new dragon summoner from the marketplace.


While browsing the marketplace, I suddenly came across an amazing legendary card. This dragon summoner is named Akane. I was really impressed by the card's beautiful artwork, design, and the stats behind it. However, I needed enough credits in my account to purchase this valuable card. Those of you who are familiar with the game know that in-game credits can be purchased very safely and easily in Splinterlands via PayPal or various cryptocurrencies. I decided to top up some credits according to my needs and convenience.

When I had enough credits in my dashboard balance, I made my final decision to purchase the Akane card. This card has a mana cost of 5, which is a reasonable amount in the current meta for a powerful Legendary Summoner. For just 5 mana, I was getting an incredible card that could turn the tide of the battle in my favor in an instant. The card costs 7608 credits, which is about $7.61 according to the game's economy and current market price. Without a moment's hesitation, I immediately clicked the buy button.


I always feel most comfortable and secure using Hive Keychain for any kind of small or large transaction in the Splinterlands game. As usual, after clicking the buy button, the Hive Keychain pop-up window appeared on my mobile screen. I quickly signed in to confirm the transaction from my Splinterlands account, not Mirzaiki. Thanks to blockchain technology, the entire process is so fast, hassle-free, and secure that my desired purchase was successfully completed within just a few seconds.

After the whole purchase process was completed, I went straight to my card collection page with great enthusiasm. I wanted to see how Akane fit into my deck with the other cards in my deck. Even though it is a level 1 card, it has added a total of 500 power to my collection, which will help me upgrade my league in the future. Now, let's analyze the most interesting and main power of this card in detail. Unlike normal summoners, Akane does not give a specific buff or advantage to everyone on the team. Rather, it gives you the great opportunity to choose between two completely different strategies or tactics according to the situation right before the battle starts. After analyzing this dual power, you will clearly understand why I spent so many credits to buy it.

Its first special ability is Lookout. If you understand or think at the beginning of the battle that the opponent will play very aggressively and will attack by targeting the relatively weak cards in your back row, then you can safely use this ability. You can give this lookout ability to any specific card in your team. The units immediately surrounding the one you give this ability to, that is, on both sides, will absorb 1 less damage from the enemy's deadly sneak, snipe, or opportunity attack. Its benefits are not limited to this; it will also reduce the damage of any ambush attack by the enemy and reduce it directly by up to 50 percent. From my long-term gameplay experience, I can say that there is no better and more effective defensive strategy in the game at the moment to protect the weak backline.

Now, let's come to a slightly different context and discuss its second ability, which is called Ambush. If you want to play very aggressively or offensively from the beginning of the battle, then this second option will definitely be a game-changer for you. Through this, you can give this ambush ability to any two cards on your team. This simply means that before the first round of the main battle begins, these two selected cards of yours will get an extra turn and will attack the opponent unexpectedly. Think about it a little deeper. If your two strong attackers can defeat the opponent's main damage dealers before the main game starts, then the full control and victory of the battle will be in your hands from the beginning.

Friends, Akane is such an amazing summoner who gives me complete freedom of excellent defense and deadly offense at the same time. By carefully observing the opponent's past battle history and their style of play, I can decide every time whether I should protect the backline or attack with a strong attack at the beginning. I'm really excited to test new combinations on the battlefield of Splinterlands with this summoner. I hope my analysis today will help you a little in your Splinterlands gameplay.
