I have been playing non stop for the last couple of days! Yeah, getting beaten down by my opponent also, to beating the hell out of my opponent in my battle field has become a very important part of my everyday tasks! The feelings of both the scenarios have been exciting so far. Although, I have been finding reasons why did I loose this battle, after every loss? This have lead to many unknown facts getting revealed to me.
Talking about that, lets face it, it has been getting difficult to play against bots. Although, I am no where near to the top league but I am sense how difficult it gets when you are against a strong opponent and as if they have mastered the game perfectly. Yes, there are OG's available in the game and I can just relate how difficult the path has been for them to get where they are. Respect! Whatever the situation might be, bots are a real part of the game as of now.
Since I have been playing non stop, I have come across few battles which I found quite interesting. And needless to say, sharing them with you all gives me an additional benefit as well. Such as whenever, I describe the battles of mine there are some missing information which goes unnoticed while watching the game. Just because I am describing them via a blog, each and every details seems to struck me real hard. So that's an additional bonus for me to discover new information via writing these sort of contents.
Battle Against Death
The match which I enjoyed the most for the day was this one. I have been loosing continuously for the last few matches and suddenly this match pops up and the mana for the match was also high. Seemed perfect for me! I also noticed the opponent play was not random but selective deck in the last five matches. Which is why, I went out with Fire deck and added CONQUEROR JACEK as my summoner. Do not forget the rule set as well, Explosive Weaponry and Fog of war. Lets observe the match and find out my reasonings for the selective monsters in the game play.
Explosive Weaponry & Fog of War: As we know, monsters selected in this battle will have an additional advantage with all the attacks made from both the team's monsters. So I would rather prefer monsters with long range ability than of melee attack monsters. Since fog of war rule was implemented, I was assured no damage would be done to my last monsters. I needed something explosive and also resourceful as a summoner. Jacek seemed a lot better option for me under the circumstances than the death deck at hand!Jacek giving additional 2 speed , which would increase the effectivity of my monsters. Making them more faster and also take it as an advantage for me against low speed monsters from the opponent. SCATTERSHOT also opening up random target for my monsters. Piercing making an additional benefit for my monsters to get an upper hand in the battle field.
Overall, from the very beginning my monsters have gotten the benefit of striking to the opponent much faster, effective and lethal blows to my opponent.
GRUM FLAMEBLADE : I have been playing with him for some time. Selecting this guy is a must. Few reasons are its armor, health, Void, Void armor and summoner buffs gives it additional abilities to strike the opponent. Also do not forget the blood lust ability, once it gets activated it gets quite dangerous in the battle field.
FINEAS RAGE : Choosing him was because of his reach ability and health. Since I wanted to go all in with range attack monsters these two front line cards would act as a tank for me, until my back monsters take care of the opponent.
FIRECALLER : What else for, I would choose this card? Martyr, man! Although at this stage it does not seem that much effective in the line up but the 3 damage and the blast was perfect for this place.
COUNTESS SINASH : 3 damage, increases the speed of other monsters in the line up also camouflage (although not much beneficial here) pretty cool edition I would say.
SPARK PIXIES : Its speed goes far beyond all the other monsters. It would have been a nice edition if no magic rule sets was established. But quite a needful card to have in the deck.
MOLTEN ASH GOLEM : Even if my all the monsters gets killed this would act as a strong support till the end of the battle. And due to its abilities it can take some heavy hit and also attack even in the last position.
Speed, plays a very vital role in a match! Although, every possible advantages received from the summoner or monsters does comes in handy for us to win a battle in the battle field. Which is why knowing which monsters could bring additional support and can make the best use of the rule set is a necessary step in a match.
I would definitely say, that my monster selection and line up really worked well and the end result was very much appreciated as well.
I plan on upgrading my fire deck monsters in the coming days. Seems like I might end up spending money like all the other folks. Splinterlands just knows how to reach the pockets of investors! Can not blame them as they have made this game too much interesting and it does acts as a magnet lol. It knows how to attract players, gamers and investors towards itself.
I am exploring brawls now. Looking forward to the upcoming days as well. Lets see how things turns out for me in the coming days for me ;)
