Social Media Challenge - Fire and smoldering ashes.

Excellent week for all the people belonging to this great community and society of Hive, I feel happy to come again to present you a new content about the incredible game of Splinterlands. In this new occasion I will be playing with a Fire Splinter summoner and with some very interesting monsters, I was very surprised by the results and I can't wait to tell you how was the battle, with nothing more to add to this text, let's start with the analysis of the best game, Splinterlands!

To start this game I prepared myself from the initial conditions of the game:

1. Standard: rules are not modified.
2. Mana: 22 points of mana available to spend on cards.

The amount of mana is just enough to create a good strategy that can defeat the enemy. Later in the text I will comment on how I made my strategy based on the games played by my opponent.

When analyzing my enemy I realized that his previous games had combined melee attack with ranged attack, the latter using it as support to wear down the enemy cards, so I decided to use a strategy like his but taking into account the abilities of my cards to counteract the damage of their attacks, therefore, my deck of cards would be composed mostly of monsters with melee attack, monster with ranged attack and a support monster.

The game development would take about 5 rounds of attacks, I did not have a good start because I lost my first card almost instantly and also my opponent had in first position a very good card that with the help of other cards was restoring some life points and some armor points, however with the help of my monsters I was able to neutralize his advance due to my constant attacks that were gradually wearing down the life points of the enemy, and for the last rounds of attack my opponent had been left with only 2 monsters against 4 monsters and thus ending their hopes of winning.

1. Our summoner is the beautiful Tarsa, this great warrior is one of the summoners that I do not usually use much in the game even though it is a very good card for the attributes it can offer to the monsters that Tarsa wants to summon, in this game I felt I had to use it and get its maximum potential on the battlefield. What Tarsa can offer to his greatest servants is to increase 1 point of life and 1 point of melee attack which generates that they hold more in battle and do a little more damage to enemies.

2. Who is at the forefront of the attack are the giant ants called Antoid Platoon, these monsters always attack in groups to achieve greater damage to the enemy, it is certainly one of the monsters that I have used the most in the Splinter Fire for its versatility, performance and durability on the battlefield, the statistics that gives them Tarsa considerably increases their potential and effectiveness. The stats of this great monster are: 2 points of armor, 3 points of life, 1 point of melee attack and 1 point of speed. It possesses an ability that allows it to reduce the damage of ranged and melee attacks.

3. The one behind Antoid Platoon is the great samurai Tenyii Striker. This great warrior is one of those who can resist for long periods of attack and that every summoner will want to have in their ranks. It is a card that specializes in wearing down the enemies as the attack rounds go by and it is not easy to defeat due to its great stats: 6 health points, 2 melee attack points and 2 speed points, it complements perfectly with its summoner Tarsa and it also has an ability that allows it to target the last enemy instead of the one in the first position.

4. Serpentine Spy is one of the most agile and determined monsters in the formation of this battle, he specializes in killing his enemies in a fast way without leaving traces of his actions, he has an ability that allows him to attack from any position to his enemies, choosing or targeting the one with the least amount of life points available. His stats are as follows: 1 life point, 2 melee attack points and 3 speed points, and thanks to his summoner Tarsa is able to become a more complete monster.

5. Lava Spider is in the penultimate attack position in this epic battle, it is able to position itself in any corner of the battlefield thanks to its web. This monster is an excellent option to combine with the cards that go with melee damage, its great attribute is that although it is a monster that attacks from a distance it has very good health points, here its stats: 4 health points, 1 ranged attack point and 2 speed points, its ability allows it to target enemies with ranged attack, magic or that do not have attack points that are not in the first position.

6. Scavo Hireling is a support monster and is in the last position in the attack, despite seeming harmless and not possessing any physical or magical damage he manages to support his own from a comfortable position. His stats are: 1 health point and 2 speed points, but his ability allows him to restore part of the armor of the allied monster whose armor has taken the most damage.

Although my opponent had a powerful card that I used in the first position and also had support monsters that supported that card, the ability that all attacks went directly to him (first card) was very risky, my opponent did not know that my summoner increases my damage by +1 point and this helped me a lot to take down the cards with "ease", one of the things that helped me a lot was the ability of my first monster that reduced the damage of the attacks of my opponent, he was practically untouchable in the game.
