Wazzzaaaaaaap!!!!! Splinterlandians.... It's been a tiny little while you saw me, I know I know....I've missed ya'll too!Stupendously!Mistakili had to pay proper attention to his health and remind himself that he's human and not a computer and definitely needs a break sometimes. pfffft! Anyway, I'm super stoked to be back on this beat, lets jump right into what I have for this weeks Splinterlands challenge!
Ladies, Gentlemen, bots and what's not....I present to you the Phantasm!!!! The Phantasm is one of the most lethal monsters in the Death Splinter.
THEME: PHANTASM
Edition: REWARD
Rarity: COMMON
Element: DEATH
To be frank, I've overlooked it than not and I'm sure I'm not alone on this table, but thanks gracious to these challenges that pop up every other week, most of us get to try out cards that would have otherwise just been sitting down in our deck without really discovering their abilities.
As stated above, we can see that the Phantasm is a Common Death monster with an ability to fly at it's lowest levels, has 7 life points and gives a melee damage of 2. When I checked my deck for this card I realized that I had enough DEC to raise my card and step up its levels to the stage where it has some more action, just so you my readers can be as wowed and as excited as I was, seeing the card in action. Without any further ado, let's jump into the game play.
..................Hehehe Peep my line up.........
Remember I told you about leveling up my Phantasm to level 5, where it has an increased melee damage of 3 and 7 life points with an added ability known as return fire. When a monster with this ability is hit by a ranged attack, it returns a reduced attack of the same to that monster who ranged attacked it. This is quite different from ''Retaliate'' ability where the monster gives back the same amount of damage it receives from the opponent.
After dealing two or three blows with the Phantasm, it apparently died and left its back row to take care of the finishing, which they did with team work, style and finesse. I also ensured I used a buffer summoner which is Daria Dragonscale, giving all my melee monsters extra melee attack damage point, which was a wise decision seeing how it turned out to give me an upper hand against an opponent who started his line up with the revered Goblin Merch. Other than drastically and speedily reducing the Phantasm's exploits, the Goblin Merch itself could only do so much before it was taken out!
I look forward to maxing out my Phantasm card anyway...understanding that it'll take 400 combinations of it to get to level 10, phewwww, that's going to take a while, I was happy to pick up the cheap ones I saw hanging around the market today and powered them all up till level 5, and as
