Feeling desperate when you lose battles constantly??
Want to increase your Win rate while doing daily quest??
This is the right post for you
Hello Everyone
Feeling the same way with the above quote? Don't worry, I am here to share some of my thoughts and techniques to help you win with your battles. And here comes the first post for me ever since I joined the family of Splinterlands last November. Talking about myself, I am not a whale player with lots of fancy cards, instead, I enjoy the feeling of winning battles to overplay the other players through strategic psywar.
The Battle Rules
32 Mana Cost
Target Practice: All Ranged and Magic attack Monsters have the Snipe ability.
Stampede: The Trample ability can trigger multiple times per attack if the trampled Monster is killed.
My Team
In this battle, there was a restriction of only Water,Earth and Life, which indicates that my opponent could possibly use his/her high level Life/Earth team that he/she rented (by checking the last 5 battle history). So that I decide to use the Bortus summoner and Naga Windmaster to counter my opponent.
Please refer to the Battle Link here.
The Lineup
Summoner
The Bortus summoner is definitely one of my favorite cards to counter the opponents with magic damage during battles, especially Earth team and some magic monster in Life team. By considering the battle rules, I made a prediction that my opponent will use Magic/Ranger Lineup. Therefore, I decide to use the combo of Bortus and Naga Windmaster lineup.
Front Row
Diemonshark is one of the best tank for Water Team in the Chaos Legion Meta, with high speed and shield against the melee monsters. Also, the Stampede Rule enabled the Diemonshark to trigger the Trample for multiple times.
Second
Djinn Oshannus is the best card to counter magic opponents with the Void ability. Besides that, the reason I put it on the second place was Target Practice Rule, which means that the range/magic monsters will attack my range/magic monsters at the back. As a result, I put my Oshannus at second place to tank the damage.
Third
The Igor Darkspear is a card with good value to use when you are almost running out of Mana. It has 4 health and 1 damage with only 2 Mana Cost. As a result, I put it on the third place to tank the damage after Oshannus.
Fourth
The Headwinds ability of Naga Windmaster was definitely the MVP of my battle to outplay my enemy. The reason I put it a latter place was that I want to keep this ability as much as I could to reduce the range damage of opponent monsters.
Fifth
The Axemaster is my DPS monster that could possibly deals 4 damages per round with the Double Strike ability. As a result, I put it at fifth place to protect it.
Last
The Furious Chicken plays a role of
shieldto protect my Axemaster, in case the enemies had sneak ability to hit my monsters at the back so that my Axemaster could survive for one more round.
Battle Result
As you can see, I survived after the battle with all LV.1 cards towards the opponent renting the cards above Lv.3 mostly. The reflection behind this battle is that, sometimes your level of card doesn't matter but the calculation to win the strategic psywar (like picking the right cards/ positioning).
