Hello my viewers and all Hivians, Welcome to my Gaming Space where I give detailed analysis of my Splinterlands Battle.
For this week we shall discuss the theme of VENARI SPELLSMITH.
This isn't my first time of using the Venari Spellsmith in battles. I make use of it sometimes in battles, although it isn't always my best choice.
Well, to be honest, I still dont understand the Dispel ability this Monster possess. I'll appreciate if someone explains it better for me.
Well, let's do a bit of analysis and overview of this Monster, then I'll show a battle where it was used.
So let's get to it!
Edition: CHAOS LEGION
Rarity: RARE
Element: NEUTRAL
Attack: MAGIC
Abilities: DISPEL, AMPLIFY, REDEMPTION
There are those who may think the Realm of Silence is a place of deep dark caverns. That could not be further from the truth. It is a region like any other in the Splinterlands that is full of homes, cities, and cultures. There are even universities that specialize in the study of magic, music, and geography. One such underground species that excels in academia are the Venari.
They created the Institute of Application that acts as a center of study for spells and tinkering. Those who wish to become fluent in spellcasting train to become Spellsmiths: masters of creating and using spells. It is through this knowledge they research and experiment with magic in order to unlock new ways to harness mana and the elemental forces.
A Venari Spellsmith is so dedicated to the art of spellcasting that magic itself became a part of them. While they themselves can manipulate magic to damage foes, magic burns through their veins. Upon death the radiating Mana explodes from their bodies, harming everyone around the Venari.

| Name | Image | Description | Levels |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dispel | When this monster hits an enemy, it clears all positive status effects on that enemy | 1 - 8 | |
| Amplify | Increases Magic Reflect, Return Fire, and Thorns damage to all enemy monsters by 1.s. | 4 - 8 | |
| Redemption | When this Monster dies, it does 1 damage to all enemy monsters. | 8 |
The VENARI SPELLSMITH is a Rare and a fairly affordable Monster.
It has about 90,826 cards in circulation right now.
You can rent the card for as low as 8.34 DEC (Dark Energy Crystals) per day for a level 1 card to as high as 102.77 for a level 8 card from the In-game Marketplace.
You can also buy the Monster from the in-game Marketplace. It is auctioned at the Market place for as low as $0.65 for a level 1 card to as high as $3,550. That's a really huge cash.
I believe the Venari Spellsmith is a Monster that is worth its price. While it has a relatively low STATS and low increasing rate in the 8 levels, this low stats is compensated by the 3 Abilities that it possess.
Thus, it is one that you will not regret to own, stack up and increase in levels.

My battle was against FIERYDEATH4 who chose Summoner and Monsters from the Primal Force of Fire, and I chose my Summoner and Monsters from the Primal Force of Earth.
The rules of the game were:
I chose the Summoner Obsidian because I intended to have Magicians in my team. By so doing, Obsidian will give all my Magic Monsters an additional magic attack effect.
| Monster Name | Image | Reason for Choosing |
|---|---|---|
| Regal Peryton | In a battle with low mana cap, the Regal Peryton can serve as a great first line Monster, if you don't mind having a Magic Monster as your first Monster. This is because she has a great speed with the ability of dodge, hence she can easily dodge attacks from Melee and Ranged attack Monsters. | |
| Venari Spellsmith | this is the Monster of the week, I placed it at this position to attack from there. | |
| Goblin Psychic | The healer in the team. I placed it at this position to heal the first position Monsters, so that they become strengthened and fire on. | |
| Mycelic Morphoid | I placed this Monster as a sacrificial Lamb. Since it has 1 Mana Cap, I placed it at the last position so that my enemies sneak Monster will attack it first, if my enemy has one. Or the Opportunist Monster may attack it first before other Monsters. |
☆ My enemy's Opportunist Monster actually scattered my team. He was responsible for the death of 3 out of 4 of my team members.
☆ The Dodge ability of my Regal Peryton actually helped her to evade some of these attacks and that was what led to my victory.
Yes, my strategy worked. However, I would have lost a great deal if not for the dodge ability of the Regal Peryton.
I have no regret since I didn't lose the battle.
Hehehe
If I had lost the battle, then there'll surely be Regrets.
It isn't a bad Monster, yes I like it.
