It felt like yesterday when the almighty sea wreck water monster cards got revealed and released to all riftwatcher pack owners based on what they hold and I must say that card is really one of the best when max or at level 3 with the healing ability among others and also the first water bloodlust ability, I didn't have it so I decided to just rent it for a while to try how good the card is even when the mana cap is way high and it really performed well to the point I felt I should just grab some from the market and level it up to level 3 which is the gold league level but i guess i will be doing that later perhaps when the market price reduced a little bit, who don't want cheap price lol.
I was really surprised when they announced the next riftwatcher cards they will be airdropped soon, it always look like babies gender reveal which everyone is always curious to know and this time around, they are bringing this card back to the Fire element and they called it Immolation, seeing the name I thought it will be coming with immune ability but it was really a shocker, I don't really make use of fire element all the time except we have the only range monster card rule and that is if fire element is available and because I have some cards with the close range ability there. I can say having immolation as a fire based card is really good because we rarely have magic cards in that aspect and most magic card there have average health and attack. Checking out this card, even though it is a 12 mana capped card, it really make sense with the 4 magic attack that really stand out from level 1 to 4 without changing, since magic attack the health directly, having 4 attach at level 1 is really a huge one, also with the 3 speed, swiftness can be use to buff it, from level 1-4 none of the stat change except the abilities attached to it.
In level 1, we have the shield ability which reduce the damage received from melee and range cards, this ability is really useful is some ruleset, in level 2 we have the scavenger ability, just like the vulture that feed on the dead, this card receive +1 health anything a monster card die, at level 3 it get Inspire which give +1 stat to all friendly melee monster cards and lastly is the blast level at level 4 and this cards deal extra damage to cards adjacent to the prey. All this together, will really make magic lovers to look for this cards and it will really make sense when they buff it with the magic dragon summoner at times to take the attack to 5 which will make it more deadly, I even laugh the more if it is buffed with martyr ability adjacent to it which will make it more powerful. I will try this card out to see the suitable strategy.
I still wonder how people still be little quora towershead in some kind of battle as a gladiator, maybe because this card is a gladiator and really not common, this only make few people have and make use of it in some kind of battle, I really cant wait to have this card level up to some certain level so the stats can increase and with extra abilities, having 2 based attacks (magic & melee) really make me love the card because it represent 2 cards taking one position. Having this kind of rule set given in this battle really make me go all out to pick this particular strategy, first is the weak magic which make attacker to hit the armour first before any other thing, the born again which resurrect any card that is destroyed and give it just 1 health and lastly is the weaponary rule set that give all card the blast ability and with the 32 mana capped given, I had to bring in the gladiator summoner to boost the gameplay even though it is at level 3 and really low to the gold league I play in.
Based on the strategy and the formation I used, I had to use 2 extra martyr cards while putting Quora in between, so when the blast effect happened, it destroyed this cards and they got resurrected again which means quora got 4+ extra stats and at some point, it remain this card on my end with 16 attack in total, this really make it deadly with the speed. I was really happy how it perform in this battle and after I dealt all the damages I had 32 attacks in total, 17 speed and 25 health and I really won the battle flawlessly.
