  • Hello everyone thanks for checking out my corner of the hive universe! Today I am going to share my experiences in the Play2Earn game Splinterlands. I have truly enjoyed playing this game since starting last summer at the height of a boom in the assets of the game. Since then the new set Chaos Legion has been released, I'm very fond of these cards in terms of their stats and abilities. Todays featured fight includes many of the new cards from Chaos Legion including the star of the spotlight: Deeplurker.

Strategic Overview/Plan

  • Before we go into the team synergy, let me preface this section with a disclaimer: the brighton bloom was not chosen for any specific reason other than I needed to complete the last of 5 wins with a Dragon Summoner, So I threw this team together. I consider this build the next evolution from my turtle formation builds with earth splinter where I use healing to keep the main tank alive and triage to keep the backline alive. In this build, we have triage, tank heal, and self heal on the tank. In addition, at level 5, Merdaali Guardian gains the Repair ability. This is a huge addition if you choose monsters with armor, or add armor to your team with Chaos Legion water summoner Kelya Frendul, or like I did in this case, the old trusty reliable venari wavesmith who adds 2 armor to everyone on your team.
  • This setup is superior to my old setup with just heal because the triage timing can lead to back line losses if luck is not in your favor, but with the repair added to the mix, you will negate an attack from a sneak or opporunity monster that would otherwise crush you slowly over time and the repair will affect any monster at any position. My main offence was from the Deeplurker and Axemaster. Luckily I had triage and repair to help reduce the impact of reflect damage, especially for axemaster, or this battle would surely be different.
    This battle is truly a grind fest, my opponent also used a similar build relying on reflect damage and heal monsters, with the addition of scavenger in the form of gelatinous cube.

  • Please let me know if you have any feedback! Comments are always appreciated, and I strongly believe the hive blockchain focuses so much on only upvoting new content posts and we see weak engagement all over the platform, I think its correct to upvote and tip eachother we are all adding value through interaction in building the blockchain. More Blessings to you!!

Thanks for the blog, this is an interesting strategy! What if they have rust like your scale doctor or a taunt with shield? will this still work?

I love you!

If they have rust also it would negate my repair armor trick. well played my love. Also a taunt with shield would also hold me for a bit, if you throw in triage for that taunt with shield, even better to mess me up.

Did you hear about the guy who threw his alarm clock while hosting a party?
He wanted to see if time flys while having fun.

That's a pretty sweet team! Are you still playing in diamond? I've been doing silver still but I think it's time to move up to gold, but means investing in some more leveled up cards. Deeplurker is one of my favorites out of the chaos, it's a great card especially with the Axemaster.

Today I just got back into Gold I, been mostly in Gold II since beginning of season, likely 1-2 more days and ill be back in diamond, tomm if i grind. Dec rewards seem pretty low but im saving them up and periodically buying cheap chaos legion cards even tho I maxxed the ones I use already, just so many obvious cards cheap, even gold foils, you can get many below $1.00 usd right now.
