This is the weekly Challenge of SHARE YOUR BATTLE, and the Theme for the Week is DRAGONS
Welcome to my Gaming Space where I give detailed analysis of my Splinterlands Battle.
For this week we shall discuss the theme of DRAGONS.
Aside the DRAGON SUMMONER, Drake of Arnak, I do not have any dragon Monster in my collection. So I had to go to the market place to check out some dragon babies.
But, Mhen!! They are very expensive at the Market Place.
Well, amidst that, I had to rent a Dragon Monster from the Market Place for a day in order to participate in this Weekly Battle Challenge. While I was wondering on which of the Dragons to use, one Monster immediately captured my attention. It was not a dragon, but a DRAGON jumper (yea, but he has a dragon in his name) 😅😅😜😜 So I chose to rent this Monster because of his features.
Let's get into an in-depth analysis of this Monster and I will share a battle were I used it. This is really a great Monster.
DRAGON JUMPER 🐉
Edition: UNTAMED EDITION
Rarity: LEGENDARY
Element: DRAGON
Attack: MELEE
Abilities: Flying and Opportunity
LORE
Dragon jumpers are not Dragons themselves. That would be foolish for the Gloridax, with the high rate of failure and death in this particular profession. These soldiers are trained to literally jump off of Dragons’ backs and into battle zones. Thin, leather webbing worn between their limbs slows the fall of the Dragonjumper just enough for them to survive the landing (usually).

My battle was against ROXOA11581815 who chose Summoner and Monsters from the Primal Force of Death. On the other hand, I selected my Summoner from the Primal Force of Dragon and my Monsters from the Primal Force of Earth. However, my Dragon Jumper will be included in my team.

The rules of the game were:
- Standard Game: which means no changes, modification or addition to the normal playing techniques.
- Mana Cap of 29
- Elements that can be used include all: Water, fire, Earth, light, death and dragon.
MY STRATEGY 🎯 AND LINE-UP ♟
For my strategy, here are my Summoner and Monsters, and I'll tell you why I chose each Summoner and Monsters.
MY SUMMONER
Drake of Arnak
This was the only Dragon Summoner available for me. But, hey! It gives 1 shield. So I had to use this shield for my favour.
MY MONSTERS
MEET MY MONSTERS
| Monster Name | Image | Reason for Choosing |
|---|---|---|
| Venari Knifer | https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Venari%20Knifer_lv3_gold.png | Venari Knifer is always my number 1 choice because of her attack and defense strategy. Her Thorns makes her defensive and her attack effect of 3, also makes her a great offensive player. The Gold Plated Venari Knifer is always a great choice. PS: The card is mine 😉 |
| Dragon Jumper | https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/untamed/Dragon%20Jumper_lv1.png | This is the theme Monster for the week, the BABY BOY of the day 😅😅 The Dragon Jumper is a great Monster with its mighty stats. It's flying ability aids it to Dodge melee and range attacks, and its Opportunity ability is necessary to attack weak Monsters of my opponent. I placed it at this position to assist the Venari Knifer and take over the first position if the Venari Knifer loses its life. |
| Goblin Psychic | https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Goblin%20Psychic_lv1.png | I placed the Goblin Psychic lat this point to continously Strengthen my first attacker. So while my Venari Knifer has is both offensive and defensive, she is always Strengthened by Goblin Psychic. Isn't that crazy? 😀😀😀 |
| Spirit Hoarder | https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Spirit%20Hoarder_lv1.png | My wonderful Legendary card 😁😁😁 His ability of Triage is quite necessary as it strengthens and heals other Monsters. I placed this Monster at this position to continously strengthen my back line Monsters. |
| Scavo Hireling | https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Scavo%20Hireling_lv1.png | Since I used a Summoner with shied ability and my first position Monster has shield ability, I placed the Scavo hireling in my team in order to repair the broken shield of my first position Monster, making it undefeated, as well as other Monsters. |
COMMENTARY AND SUMMARY ON THE BATTLE
ENTRANCE
☆ I love this entrance 😁
RUMBLE
At the beginning of the Battle, the following events happened:
☆ My opponent's Summoner, Thaddius Brood, reduced 1 health and 1 maguc effect of my team members.
☆ My Monster, Drake of Arnak, gave my Monsters 1 shield each.
THE BATTLE LASTED FOR 4 ROUNDS
ROUND ONE
☆ The first round began with an opportunist attack from the Dragon Jumper.
☆ My Goblin Psychic kept on supplying the Venari Knifer more health, while it continues to remain strong at the battle ground.
ROUND TWO
☆ My Venari Knifer and my Opponent's Cursed Windeku lost their lives at the first half of the 2nd round after a fierce battle.
☆ My Dragon Jumper and my Opponent's Silent Sha-vi replaced both defeated Monsters.
☆ Although my Dragon Jumper received multiple attacks from my opponent's Melee and Ranged Monsters, it was continously Strengthened by the Goblin Psychic. The Scavo hireling also repaired its shield 🛡.
ROUND THREE
☆ The defeat of the Silent Sha-vi signalled my victory, since Ranged Monsters cannot attack at the first position.
ROUND FOUR
☆ Just like I said, my Opponent's Ranged Monsters were helpless at the first position.
☆ My healing Monsters continue to strengthen the Dragon Jumper and the weaker Monsters.
☆ The Scavo hireling also repaired the shield of the Dragon Jumper.
☆ My two Healers, the Legendary Spirit Hoarder and the Goblin Psychic threw the final blows concurrently, and....
....I WON THE BATTLE!!!
I am still maintaining my winning streak 😁😁
DID YOUR STRATEGY WORK?
Yes yes yes!
Just as I expected! And much more better!
DO YOU LIKE DRAGON JUMPER?
O yes, I really do!
Buy, unfortunately it is a rare card. I had the opportunity of enjoying the Dragon Jumper for just 24 hours. It costs about 7 Dark Energy Crystals.
Well, I hope I get a dragon Monster in one of my packs.

They told me if I killed myself now it would save the lives of countless others.
Saying the longer I wait to kill myself the more people will suffer.
They are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 years. I know there are many in prison that dont deserve to be there because of this. Your stay in prison will not be fun @battleaxe and friends. People are going to want you dead when they find out what you did. I hope you die a slow painful death. You sick mother fuckers.

Its a terrorist act on American soil while some say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic and foreign threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and tell them about the day you asked me why. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control with ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers from telling the truth?

I love the cursed windeku, I really wished it had a longer life span like the unicorn mustang. It would have been devastating.
Yeah
I think it's specialty is the Thorns Ability.
There is a Summoner that grants its Monsters Thorn Ability.... Mhen! That one is dangerous ooo
Thanks for sharing! - @alokkumar121
