Hello Splinterfans!

Welcome to my entry for the Share your Battle Weekly Challenge! More details about the challenge can be found here.

This week's battle challenge is with Djinn Inferni who has the the giant killer ability! This ability allows him to do double damage to targets that cost 10 or more mana. I still haven't mastered the use of the magic attack with the fire splinter, so I am very happy to do this battle challenge.

Djinn Inferni is an epic monster that has the powerful giant killer ability. I have the gold foil level 2 which gives a 3 attack that can be doubled to 6 if it is a giant. As it is a magic attack, that can be pretty deadly. There aren't too many monsters with the giant killer attack ability.

Very desirable is the stun ability at level 5 though, this could really disable your enemy's tank and give you a really good edge.

ROUND 1 - Grum Flameblade vs. Agor Longtail

alt

My enemy has gone for the dragon summoner Quix the Devious, this has allowed him to bolster the death splinter with some powerful dragons. It seems as though he was expecting a ranged attack and I have managed to fool him by going for the fire splinter.

The enemy has a very powerful attack with Agor Longtail, who has flying, taunt and void armor. It will take a lot to take him down.

First Djinn Inferni with the giant killer ability removes his armor, Ureaus delivers some poison and then Grum Flameblade delivers the knock-out punch with his giant killer ability too.

ROUND 2 & 3

In round 2, with his low health, our man of the moment Djinn Inferni falls, followed by Tenyii Stryker in round 3.

Without their tank, the enemy has completely collapsed and has just one monster left standing.

ROUND 4

Magi Necrosi even with his strong magic attack, doesn't stand a chance against the onslaught. The battle is over far quicker than I had expected, but that is the power of the giant killer ability.

alt

Summary:

The impact of monsters with the giant killer ability cannot be underestimated. Djinn Inferni was able to take out the complete shield of their tank in one go. Grum Flameblade then had an amazing knockout 10 attack!!! Who can survive that?!?

Something to bear in mind with Djinn Inferni is how to protect him with his low health score. This is always then a hesitation for me to use magic attack with the fire splinter.

Thanks for reading.
