Hello Splinterlands Community!
It's me again posting the 2nd part of my post last week. Indeed those common reward card are now out of print.
It was confirmed as well recently in the townhall that once the soul-bound reward card is release, all current reward card will be obsolete no matter if the print rate is not yet 100%. This means that not only the batch 1 reward card will be gone but as well as the batch 2 reward card which still have a pretty lower print rate.
Based from the Splinterlands roadmap, Soulbound reward cards will be introduce by end of this week.
Based on Kiokizz website, the 1st batch of rare reward card are now 88% printed, this cards may be printed out ahead before the release of the soul-bound reward cards.
For those who are new to my post, I usually post information which is related in the Silver League Modern Format.
Exploding Rat is a high speed high damage monsters but with 1 health only.
This card is pretty good when equalizer ruleset kicks in so that this card can survive further.
In terms of abilities, in bronze and silver league this card does can deal blast damage while starting from gold league the redemption ability which synergize to its low health. The redemption ability provides additional damage to all opponents. Lastly in MAX level, the true strike ability gives this card the advantage to hit all monsters with its high melee damage with blast.
Venari Wavesmith is one of the important rare cards simply because of the armor buffs.
In terms of stats, Venari Wavesmith does have a decent health for a support type card, a pretty nice speed and a normal magic damage.
The key component Venari Wavesmith is the armor buffs which provides additional protection to the powerful water monsters.
Starting from gold league, additional support coming from Venari Wavesmith is the dispel ability which removes positive buffs to the target.
Venari Seedsmith is another important rare card in this batch which I usually use when using earth splinter.
Looking at the stats, Venari Seedsmith range damage is high with a decent speed. The starting health is low but it should be no problem because of the scavenger ability which adds additional health everytime a monster from the battlefield is defeated.
The poison ability gives extra damage but it is only avaialble starting from Gold league.
With the addition of Fernheart as a summoner, Venari Seedsmith becomes pretty important as Fernheart gives Venari Seedsmith the ability to attack in the first position especially when the close range ruleset is not in play.
The most important card in this batch which main function is support.
Venari Crystalsmith tank heal is a very useful card especially in low mana battle. On example of low mana match is that when Pelacor Conjurer is use in defending the frontline, Venari Crystalsmith can deal a range damage while healing Pelacor Conjurer. In addition, Pelacor Conjurer can deal magic reflect damage.
Venari Crystalsmith is very compatible as well with General Sloan which boost Venari Crystalsmith range damage.
In terms of stats, Crystalsmith is a balance card for a mana cost having a 1 to 3 range damage, a 2 to 4 speed and a 4 to 6 health.
Just like Venari Wavesmith, Crystalsmith second ability gives additional support which removes positive buffs from the target.
Venari Bonesmith is a pretty good card from the death splinter because of its ability.
Looking at the stats, Venari Bonesmith magic attack won't deal any damage to monsters with void but then the abilities opposed this. Venari Bonesmith does have a low health and a decent speed.
In terms of ability, the life leech is pretty useful as well as poison. As mentioned, even a monster have void ability, it can still be affected by the poison ability which deals damage every round.
In MAX level Venari Bonesmith also have the dispel ability. A pretty common ability for the Venaris.
Gargoya Devil is a heavy damage monster that can attack in the first position.
Looking at the stats, Gargoya Devil deals a massive range damage from 2 to 4, a decent speed, an armor but with a low health. This card also consumes 7 mana.
The abilities that Gargoya Devil have defined this reward card usage. WIth flying ability this card can avoid earthquake damage. The close range ability and the deathblow is the most important abilities that this card have.
Naga Assassin is a low mana cost monster from the Dragon splinter.
Looking at the stats, this card won't deal any damage to monsters with shield abilities due to very low attack but with a very high speed.
Starting from Silver League, positioning this card in the rear against sneak attack which can miss due to Naga Assassin high speed giving a backfire damage.
Another ability is the Swiftness which gives much speed to all its allies.
Twilight Basilisk is a good suport card in the frontline because of its reach ability.
This card is a 4 mana cost which is a good option for little league.
By looking at the stats, this card have a decent melee damage, a high speed and a decent health.
Having a stunner monster towards the frontline is a great advantage in the battle which disable the opponent defense.
The Venari's are the powerful rare cards in this batch due to their different abilities and benefits in each of the splinter they belong. Crystalsmith and Wavesmith are the most in demand among the four due to their big contribution in the battlefield with the tank heal and additional armor.
Then Seedsmith and Bonesmith focus on the offensive part.
All of this reward cards might be out of print or replace on Jan 31 upon shifting to Soul Bound reward cards.
