Hi everyone,
Burnsurface here; I had a thought (or in this case a Brain burning) and wanted to share.
Often I hear that Speed is really great, but like many I felt that I could overcome speed with pure power - going all in on higher attacks. I would normally favor Attack modifiers with double strikers to take down the opponent quickly.
That was .... until this battle:
https://splinterlands.com/?p=battle&id=sl_99a59a961ee6e0e813b402e6bbd2c91d&ref=burnsurface
When the mana is under 15, and Earth is an option, I like to see who I can "double" using Llama.
This time I went with Regal Peryton without thinking about speed.
I saw my opponent chose Yodin... gulp here comes a loss...
That was... until Llama activated ...
And for those of you who caught this, they chose no archery to play to Yodins strength
anyways...
9 SPEED in gold league seems pretty good! (with only a level 2 Monster)
If you haven't watched the reply, do it now...
I'll wait...
...waiting...
...waiting...
...waiting...
Welcome back!
Miss after miss... We can thank the speed (+additional % chance of miss for flying) for that.
My recommendation is if you have the option to achieve a higher speed, go for it!
Thanks for reading!
