Hello, to all my fellow Splinterlands players I am a little late this week due to starting up work again. For now, I am going to keep breaking the battle down with screenshots. A video is easier but not a lot to watch them. Not sure why maybe you just don't have time to watch and listen and want to look and read. Let me know if I am wrong. If enough of you do I will switch it up. I will break down another fight so you can see how I win or lose? Once again I am looking for some feedback to be entered to win the DEC. It can be about one of the battles I show or just the overall look and idea of this post. You can win 1000 DEC for doing that. Also, let me know how you did in the airdrop. I got 3 so not that bad.
I am going to break down a fight in a tournament this week. If you prefer to just watch it go here. I want to say thanks to the 
His line up was good for 3 cards but one didn't belong for sure and that was.
Cornealus is a great card but with a 20 mana cap, he just costs too much. He also put all my guys at 12 life. So when you play that card in this mode and can't stack little guys with him you are helping the other player. You will see this as the battle goes on.
It is easy to see that I have an advantage right away. His ranged monsters have a lower attack and with the shield ability in the first position and a heal he has no way to kill my tank. He does have a healer but over time you will see that it isn't enough.
Round 3 and his chicken is gone and my team hasn't taken much damage at all. I am feeling good for sure but there is still one more issue that you will see soon.
Round 4 looks almost like round 2 as I am slowing killing his next monster. There isn't much worry for me. I just have to make sure I kill his team before that sniper starts to kill my monsters.
Round 5 comes and it looks like it is over for sure. But there is a little danger here for that first time. He has a self-heal and a back row heal and thorns. If I can't do enough damage to kill the tank I will lose. It would take a while but my healer would die to the thorns then the tank then his sniper would very slowly kill my guys till the vampire. That card would save me with the life leach but still, this would take a lot more rounds to end.
Round 6 and you see some of my back row guys hurt at last. Return fire slows down my life gain and thorns hurts my healer and he is still at 9. The key is to not miss my two attacks that are 3 damage.
Round 7 comes and I didn't miss so I am looking good. I did get hit a little but really as it turns out thorns not a good play when you are giving my guys 12 life. My healer isn't going to kill himself fast enough.
Round 8 comes and the fight is over. I am sure you saw that coming as I was in control of this whole fight. It was nice to get a win in this battle.
Did you read it all? I am guessing some of you might have skipped in. Not a big deal as it was a fight I wasn't going to lose. The reason for sharing it was to show you that when to pick the right team for the right rules you can easily win. When you don't level some strong legendary can't win. That is a great part of this game. It isn't always about the most expensive cards. Sometimes a few rewards cards with one legendary card can dominate the fight.
