Hello friends in this new installment of BATTLE MAGE SECRETS Weekly Challenge! I bring you a cool battle with the battle condition Close Range where we will describe in detail the following.

In the page Splintercards they recommend to be able to use cards with ranged attack, there are some like in the Splinter Earth that have high speed, another way to take advantage of this battle condition, is to use a Summoner that gives advantage to ranged attacks.
As I am an average player I could not provide much information about this battle condition, so I went to look for the experts, so here I bring you the strategy of the current top 1 of the Silver League Splintermagus.

For this case we will focus on the main card that gives the victory in this battle, as is THE VIGILATOR a legendary card of the Splinter Dragon that personally is not to my taste but when you see how to use it correctly is extremely brutal and very decisive to win a battle.
First let's start by analyzing the price of the card in the last 180 days, a somewhat high cost and with good reason because a legendary card Untamed version is one of the most sought after and strongest in the game, currently at $ 22.40.

The gold version I certainly believe is out of reach for many as it has gone for $1000 in the last 180 days and can currently be found for $570.

ESTRATEGY BATTLE

The Super Sneak Battle condition influences a lot here and here clearly using cards that can attack from any position is the key to win, the problem can be that the opponent uses ranged cards and takes advantage of the speed, and for example in this battle uses a summoner that increases the speed, however to counteract this the BYZANTINE KITTY summoner is used.

Battle

SUMMONER

As I said at the beginning of the post, this summoner is ideal for 13,14,17,18, and 24 mana battles, granting +2 life, Last Stand and Cleanse.

LORD ARIANTHUS


LORD ARIANTHUS one of the best cards for defense and more if the Shield and Void abilities are in first position. Despite having little life is a good tank and combined with the right summoner is an excellent strategy.

SILVERSHIELD KNIGHT


This is a card that is normally used with another type of strategy, but using it when there is the battle condition of SUPER SNEAK gives a plus to the whole team and be more lethal.

JARED SCAR

A card to be afraid of because of its incredible attack power and above all its BLOODLUST ability.

DESERT DRAGON
As you can already see, the strategy used here is undoubtedly very well thought out, with cards that use perforation or Trample, abilities that do a lot of damage when attacking and how they can attack from any position, which is why it is the best strategy.

DESERT DRAGON
This card is undoubtedly amazing as it attacks 4 times, it is undoubtedly a magnificent card that can cause a lot of damage.

CHAOS KNIGHT
Undoubtedly to close with a flourish a common card but placed in the perfect position to withstand enemy attacks, since due to the condition of SUPER SNEAK all attacks will be directed towards the last position.

Did my strategy work?

Learning from the best players is the best option to improve little by little, cards that I have never found a use for now I see it more clearly for future battles.

What would you try differently next time?

I think it is the best strategy to be very aggressive for this type of battle, cards that attack twice, that grant attack abilities is the best option.

Do you like THE VIGILATOR, why or why not?

A card that can attack 4 times is undoubtedly a very powerful card, and more if this card gets buff and being able to do so in each of the turns is the best there can be. With respect to the card model, I don't like the way it looks, it's a strange figure that I almost don't understand, I know it's an arthropod but it's confusing to understand the image, I think it's the best strategy to be very aggressive for this type of battle, cards that attack twice, that grant attack abilities is the best option.
