Helliiaawww
what's up Splinter Player around the world how are you doing?
I am sharing my battle out of theme from River Nymph for the battle challenge but i want to share about another battle that awesome for my opinion
sorry if my write is not good but hoping you can enjoy some of my content.

In this content i want to share about Epic monster in earth splinter Grund with its ability Double Strike. It is Effective or not using in the battlefield??
because it will be useless if double strike did not use properly right?
So lets break down in the battle field

So before we reach out the battlefield lets look what Grund ability and so you can consider to rent or buy it or not

In this picture we can see that ability double strike unlock even Grund level 1. With 3 melee damage 3 speed and 10 HP which is usually i placed as first line up or tank in the battlefield.
In Bronze and Silver League which is Bronze level can use max level 2 that cannot helped to much as tanker but double damage maybe a badass one you know. In silver League also the same the ability unlock just double strike because the maximum Epic can be used just level 3. But,what makes different in Bronze and Silver league is melee damage and HP that increase a little bit.
Starting Gold league Grund ability growing that can be used Trample Ability and the Diamond League adding Cripple Ability.

In this content i want to discuss when using in Silver Gold League which is the summoner just level 4 so Grund can be used max in level 3.

Ruleset & Manacap

In this battle the ruleset is just Fire & Regret which is all monster have return fire ability with manacap 60 so big enough to arrange big mana monster in this battle. The element that cannot be used just light elemen so i think that the opponent have big chance using Water or Death element. Therefore i am using Earth Splinter because i proficient with Earth Splinter.
So here the Line up arrangement :

MonsterPositionAbilityReason
ObsidianSummoner+1 Magic DamageMy best level summoner right now with level 4 summoner that can bring max level 5 common level 4 rare level 3 epic and level 2 legendary
GrundTanker HitterDouble StrikeTanker with big HP but can damage twice and have pretty much damage for tanker with total 8 melee damage
Regal PerytonHitterFlyingBigger chance missing the hit except magic damage because not only have flying ability but the speed itself is 6 and not just for defence mechanism the attack combination with obsidian summoner have 3 magic damage
Magi of ChaosHitterNoneGreat magic damage combined with Obsidian summoner which is have 3 magic damage
Goblin PsychicSupport healerTank Heal & AfflictionUsed for tank healer so Grund can long lasting until the end of the battle at least can survive in 2-3 round with the healer and the affliction can cancel opponent heal
Queen MyceliaSupportProtect & AmplifyUsed for the protect ability that can adding 2 more shield for all monster
Mycelic SlipspawnTaunt TankerForce Field & TauntCan hold as much as possible to help Grund share the damage taken and the Force field ability can very helpfull because whatever damage taken bigger than 5 damage counted as 1 damage

So after looking my line up lets go to the battlefield and take a look at the synopsis of the battle

Round 1

Screenshot (1103).png

In round one first of all the monster get buff debuff from all the monster and summoner. Mine got adding 1 magic damage and the opponent adding 1 speed and 1 armor also make mine minus 1 melee damage from disinterigator.
The hard part of this battle is Djinn Oshannus because the phase ability that can dodge any magic damage depends on the speed different which is my monster speed are very bad.
In round 1 my monster can just give 4 damage to Djinn Oshanus which is to low for first round but because i have taunt monster the damage divided into 2 so the opponent have the same problem with me give a little damage in first round.

Round 2

Move on to the next round, Round 2 which is more intense than round 1. in this round i can kill Djinn Oshannus thanks to our hero Grund with double strike ability. If not miss by any chance the damage is very big because it can cause 6 damage after debuff from Disinterigator. But My Mycelic Slipspawn cannot holding on in round 3 because it is remain 3 HP in the end of Round 2. and the damage from magic damage can make Flying Squid Struggling with its life, in the end of this round my damage cause 8 damage so it is remain just 1 HP for round 3.

Round 3

Screenshot (1107).png

In round 3 after my monster killed Flying Squid the next monster that fainted is Disinterigator because of the magic damage. The Grund just only crack the shield of Disinterigator. The weakness of Double Strike is Shield that can make Grund so useless for the battle but it's okay the Grund can survive long enough that can still alive until the end of round 3.
So in round 3 the opponent just have 3 monster left which is Merdaali Guardian, DeepLurker and Venari Crystalsmith.

Round 4

Screenshot (1109).png

Move out the next Round. In this round as you can see pict above Grund can kill another monster. its ability can make some beautifull move by cracking the shield and kill Merdaali Guardian because yeah as you can see 4 melee damage is so painfull and give great damage if hit. For the finishing in round 4 Magic damage are very helpfull and can killed Deeplurker in instant
So the remaining Monster in the opponent board is just Venari Crystalsmith. In this moment you know that i am the winner right but lets go to the next round and guess who the MVP that give the finishing touch for the battle

Round 5

Screenshot (1111).png

So guys..who you guess as the final touch in this battle that can kill the last monster??
Yep you right!! Grund finishing the battle with double strike that crack the shield and still give the finishing touch because Regal Peryton just give 3 magic damage and Venari Crystalsmith have 4 HP.Because the finishing touch from Grund i can win the battle in Gold League Mondern Ranked.

Conclution

So what do you think guys about double strike from Grund?
is that effective or not?
is that Grund effective enough in battle or not?
in my opinion i am very love with Grund despite the manacap very big for the Hitter Tanker but besides of that Grund is very very badass. I am using so much Grund in many battle in Silver or Gold Leagues Modern Ranked. The Double Strikes of Grund save me from many battle out there.
So i think that Grund is worth to buy and using in the same time
