Hello splinter nerds
It is the weekend, seems the Xrp case that was won triggered some pump in the crypto market, most coins had a nice pump, and even sps had a pump but I guess that is due to the sps stake needed for ranked battle reward.
The Drybone Raider is one of my favorite new splinter lands reward cards and that is because of his amazing abilities. I was able to max the gold card first as it requires just 4 gold cards to have it maxed. It is a legendary card and being a neutral card gives the player a chance to use it with any splinter.
It has 3 abilities.
DOUBLE STRIKE: This ability allows the monster to attack twice per round, dry bone has 3 melee power and 2 range attack making it all five in total unless it reacts to the stats of other monsters on his team and get an increase in attack, the double strike makes it total attack 10!
SHATTER: This helps to destroy the opponent's armor and I love this ability as it has helped me to win some difficult battles due to the armor the opponent came with.
CRIPPLE: It permanently reduces the life of monsters it hit by -1 anytime it attack, which means tank heal can't recover that loss of -1 health nor can the opponent self-heal the -1.
I got paired with Infinityx22 in a three rules combo.
Equal Opportunity: Monsters attack the opponent monsters' with the lowest health unless he used a
tauntmonster.Ferocity: Double damage will be done to
tauntmonsters so it is not advisable to use them as I mentioned in the first rule.Holy Protection: All monsters have the divine shield ability which makes it impossible to reduce their health on the first attack.
It was 57 mana battle cap so we were able to use monsters with high mana.
The opponent came with a taunt monster and which did not last long, my dry bone eliminated it twice.
The opponent also used drybone but still at level 3, i guess he doesn't have enough to max it yet.
Another monster that did great on my team was The Vigilator, it also terminate one of the opponent's monsters and its double strike ability helps to weaken the opponent.
I guess this is why I love double strike monsters. they are always violent with their attacks.
