This has been without any doubt the WORST season I've had in YEARS, and yes, in capital letters, THE WORST, not only at the ranking level, as I could not reach the Diamond league, although that is not really something that affects me as I will play from now on in the GOLD league while I improve my deck, but at the level of rewards it was all and completely a SHIT, the whole season and all the end of season rewards were totally that. Nothing made up for the effort you have to put in now to earn chests, really a SHIT. But anyway, I needed to vent a little about something to which I have dedicated a lot of time and money. But changing the subject: Another week and another Splinterlands challenge, this time using the card: Angelic Mandarin, a card from the WATER deck, pretty good, although I just have it at LVL 3, I understand that at higher LVL it is an even better card than it already is. These were the battles of the day using Angelic Mandarin:
In this first battle I chose to use in first position a classic card from the WATER deck and that card is: Sea Monster, a fairly old card and that some time ago I had it at LVL 4, but by fate I had to sell it, so I only kept it at LVL 2, but I should improve it because it is a pretty good card. In second position and to serve as an attacker with Sea Monster, thanks to its ability "Reach", I placed: Wave Runner, a card that I have been substituting with others of have the same ability, but having Wave Runner little mana cost, I preferred to use it to others of higher cost and it was a wise decision. In the third position and as dictated by this week's challenge, I placed: Angelic Mandarin, a pretty good ranged attack card, which was very useful in this battle. In 4th position and to serve as support with its ability "Tank Heal", which helps Sea Monster much more, because this card has the ability "Heal", it has double healing, therefore, double to eliminate and that card is: Merdaali Guardian. In the last two positions I placed really card to raise, I know I wanted to place one that had range attack, therefore I used: Naga Windmaster and in last position and since I had no more mana points, I placed: Torrent Fiend.
In this second battle I completely changed all the battle strategy and cards, except for Angelic Mandarin, logically, since having a greater amount of mana points to use, I could opt for a strategy with more powerful cards and this was my formation: In first position I placed a card from the WATER deck that I like a lot, it has a pretty good attack level, life points and speed, it is a pretty complete card and it is excellent to place it in first position, is card is: Diemonshark. In second position, there is a card with the ability "Reach", which in my strategies has almost completely replaced Wave Runner, although it is a card which needs some mana points to use it, that card is: Flying Squid. In third position, I placed: Angelic Mandarin Why, I don't know, but there it is. In the next two positions are two of the legendaries that I like the most in the WATER deck: Djinn Oshannus and Poseidon, they are two excellent cards and very powerful. And in the last position, I didn't know what to put and in the end I used: Venari Wavesmith.
