Hello everyone! This is my second entry for this week's Splinterlands Social Media Challenge. Today I'm sharing a battle of mine in Modern Diamond Ranked.
I fought an interesting battle in the Reverse Speed rule set. Reverse Speed is one of my favorite rule sets. It doesn't restrict anything but it allows some of the slower cards to shine, which is great for some of those that don't get much play outside of it. I have fond memories of playing a level 1 Sand Worm in this rule set. That's the card that represents Reverse Speed to me.
This game has the following rule sets: I picked Eternal Tofu with Grimbardun Smith in front. I put Fungus Fiend and Halfling Refugee next. Goblin Psychic was my next one and I finished with 2 ranged units: Blackmoor Jinx and Acid Shooter. They used Tarsa as their summoner, one that I don't see too often outside this rule set. Xenith Monk was their tank, followed by the dangerous Kha'zi Conjurer. Scorch Fiend and Elanor Bravefoot are their middle units and they finished with the heavy hitters: Runi and Mordeus.
I gave Scavenger and Triage to Grimbardun Smith. Mordeus and Runi took out my Fiend and Jinx. Goblin Psychic Afflicted their Monk and Acid Shooter Poisoned the Runi. In round 2, Mordeus finished Acid Shooter. In the next one, Mordeus finished my Halfling but it also died to Thorns. At the start of round 4, Kha'zi Conjurer's ability took out the Monk and the Fiend. Runi also lost its first life to the Poison. Goblin Psychic killed the Conjurer. The burn killed Elanor, at the start of round 5, which left them with only Runi. It died to my Goblin.
My team wasn't very good. The Fiend was there just to take attacks, but its ability is bad in Reverse Speed. Halfling also couldn't do anything. Jinx did nothing. Only Goblin, Acid Shooter, and Grimbardun Smith were useful. Eternal Tofu won the game for me, mostly thanks to Thorns.
What do you all think about this game? Would you have done anything different? Let me know in the comments! Thank you for reading!!
