@chopiliartThis splinterlands season will be a long one in terms of battle, it was even more than the normal 15days duration, users are battling their hearts out as usual and this season I decided to stay and battle in the sliver league since it is way easier and affordable for me in terms of renting cards which are more cheap based on their level and also renting sps. This time around I rented 10k staked sps which cost around 700 dec for 7days and that put me in the 10x modifier since I have 12k total staked and if my rating don't drop below 1600, I still get up to 1sps per victory which is really cool and that might give me up to 100+sps at the end of the season if I play it really well. Recently there is now a new announcement during the weekly maintenance update, the team now add GLX and GLUSD tokens as a means of purchasing in-game credit token on splinterlands.
I still remember when genesis league sport came to live and the glx token was airdropped to splinterlands users based on some requirements, many staked their tokens and some sold it when the price was high, now we have an extra utility attached to the token, users are already purchasing credit with glx and glusd which using the credits to get their desire in-game assets or boost their cards levels, the amount of credits you get depend on the market price of the GLX and GLUSD and you have to first of all withdraw your glx token from the genesisleaguesport site to your hive engine wallet before perform the credit transaction. This week I had an amazing battle I will love to share and it also showcase this two out of the powerful cards in the whole sliver league that happens to have their healing ability intact and also what most users make use of based on the rules or element given to them.
I happened to have the battle with ericdnoble1 in a 47 mana capped single ruleset as the requirement and this ruleset is the super sneak rule which give all melee monster cards the sneak ability which means, they can always attack the backline cards first and we could selected between fire, water and earth elements. Most times in this kind of rule, it is very easy to predict your opponent might be coming up with most of their melee cards so people tend to make use of the summoner with the thorns ability just to counter their opponent attack or use thorn ability cards, but I decided to use something since I noticed we have a few healing cards in sliver league and healing cards always last longer in battles. Following the requirement, I decided to go with earth element and choose Obsidian the magic summoner to boost my magic cards.
I really want to play out of the normal strategy and not really using too much melee cards which is always common among players so I decided to rent some few cards and I picked Arkemis The Bear for a reason as my frontline, it is a strong card with protect which give 2 extra amour and the rare halving ability which cut down the attack of his victim into half, then I decide to pick 3 magic cards which include Regal Peryton, Kron the undying mainly because of the healing power because that is way i really need in this battle, Goblin Psychic with the tank heal and affliction and lastly Cornealus the almighty healing range cards with the thorn ability and this make it perfect as a backline in this kind of rule set
I wasn't really surprised when I saw my opponent setups, he came with 4 melee cards and 2 range cards, but I wasn't expecting him to use Conqueror Jacek with the speed and piercing ability, based on his attacked, cornealus was able enough damage back to his cards before getting destroyed, his cards might have stay stronger in battle if they have a way to heal up but at the end I won flawlessly.
