@saydie here, playing Splinterlands everyday!As of the writing of this post, there are still two weeks remaining before the end of the Conflict for the fifth legendary Archon, Brave the Bull, to be concluded. Yet, the team has surprised us with the reveal of the final Conclave Aracana airdrop Archon, when they drop the stats of the Archon three days. And wow! Looking into it, it seems that the final Archon is too powerful to the point that it is Broken. The archon's name was Dragonlord Mancer, which will be the Dragon Archon.
In this post, I want to take a look at this Archon, check for its potential card synergies, as well as its Conflicts requirements that could help players prepare their Wagons and Wagon Kits.
| Card Name | Dragonlord Mancer |
|---|---|
| Card Type | Archon |
| Edition | |
| Mana Cost | 7 |
| Element | |
| Bloodline | Human |
| Rarity | Legendary |
| Bloodline Dominion | Saurian, Bruteborn gets |
| Tactics Abilities | 2 unit gets |
Just like the previous legendary Archons, Dragonlord Mancer also has a 7 mana cost. It just follows the same cost as the previous Conclave Arcana Archons, which is different from the last Rebellion Archon, which has a 13 mana cost. This is even though this card seems to be quite broken, as it can give 2 units the Bloodlust ability that will increase all the stats of the card every time they defeat an opponent, along with Corrupted Healing that will restore 70% of the max health of all allied units, but reduce their health by 1 each time. Giving these two abilities to a single unit can reverse the outcome of the battle, and even more so with two. But aside from that, its Bloodline Dominion skill will give Saurians and Bruteborn to get the Scavenger ability, so each time that a unit was defeated, they will gain 1 health.
As the name suggests, this Archon design was made with the input from Cryptomancer, one of the top 6 players who bought the most packs during the presale period.
As of the moment, there are 18 Saurian and 4 Bruteborn units that are available for use along with Dragonlord Mancer in modern.
Among the Djinn units, the ones that I can see to benefit the most, if given the tactics, was Mad Ogre Anarchist, since it has Immunity that makes it immune to most negative status effects and it has Opportunity that will allow it to attack the opponent card with the least health, making it easier to activate Bloodlust.
Meanwhile, for the Saurian, it may be good to give the tactics to Ironcoil Bulwark, since it already has good stats and damage, not to mention, it has Enrage that will further increase its damage, so imagine adding Bloodlust into it.
And if we include the 6 units from Conclave Arcana that have the Shapeshift ability, then we have a total of 28 units that can be played using this Archon across all elements. And among these cards, I think that Calamity would benefit the most if you gave him the Tactics. The combination of Bloodlust and Last Stand is just insane.
To get a guaranteed copy of Dragonlord Mancer, a player will need to have a minimum of 1,450 entries, with each entry worth 100,000 Points. It's 50 entries higher than Brave The Bull, and makes acquiring it more difficult. The chance to receive the airdrop card from each entry has also dropped to 0.069% (rounded off) from the last Airdrop.
For every 25 cards they get, a player will get a guaranteed Gold Foil version of the card, and by using 50 alchemy potions per card, it can be reduced so that the guaranteed comes for every 13 copies. Players can also use 50 Midnight potions per entry to increase the chance of getting a Black Foil version of the card to 0.20% from its base chance of 0.10%.
| Potion Type | Boost | Cost Per Card |
|---|---|---|
| Alchemy | Gold Foil chance 4% → 8% | 50 potions |
| Midnight | Black Foil chance 0.1% → 0.2% | 50 potions |
At the end of the conflict, there will be 1 Black Foil Arcane and 5 Gold Foil Arcane versions of Dragonlord Mancer that will be added in the Conclave Arcana Jackpot Prices and can only be acquired through any of the Conclave Arcana packs except for the starter pack.
And that was all for now for Dragonlord Mancer. Looking at its Bloodline ability and its tactics, I can say that it will be a very powerful Archon, to the point that it was almost broken. Just imagine that you can have two units that can heal your entire team and can grow stronger as they defeat the opponent, almost makes it difficult to defeat any team with this Archon.
Thank you, and see you on the next post!
