Happy Splinterlands weekend or new week, we are almost near of final season with 4 days so, legendary cards to everyone.

This is toad week, it means that one of my favorites cards is ready to battle, the amazing of it is that I have this little neutral monster at level 6 so is capable to poison enemy monster and is ready to fight in second position.

Since the new untamed era started some cards are really needed, that is the case of horny toad, this little creature is fascinating, is the only neutral monster with reach and poison ability, this is the new untamed era revolution.

Since I read about this card I wanted at higher level, then a golden one came out and all I know is that I bought the rest of them and I have this little golden toad.

This card is great because many things, one is a low mana cost, just 3 mana ( well is a tiny toad), can be useful company to no attack monsters (it is the pet of lord Arianthus) because reach ability, yeah has a low health but knowing when and how to use is very powerful, also has one of the strategies abilities of the game poison, is not the faster monsters but in not the lowest, so the chance of the effect of poison is like fifty percent.

In this opportunity I want to show how I use this card and why I love it.

The battlefield

Dargon vs Fire, this two summoners have something in common melee attack buff, so I selected Lord Arianthus at first row, then horny toad of course because reach ability and poison to first row enemy monster is necessary Lord Ariantus is unable to attack but is a great wall difficult to defeat, the other player decided to put at first, second even at third row melee attack monsters, Chain Golem,Cerberus and Pit Ogre maybe lost of magic rule be the reason without magic monster but range attack monster can be used in first line, so I put two of them in the third and fourth row, Octospider and Vampire, one to gain some health by attacking and the other reducing melee attack with demoralize.
In the last two rows skeleton assassin(I need to level up that one) and the amazing night cat Dark Ha`on.

Battle ID

This battle was not that easy because two ranged attack monsters were there and one of them has blast, the good thing about having monsters with taunt and fly is that can make it easy the attack of your monsters.

At the first round, the faster monsters that I have, in this case Skeleton assassin and Vampire go to the last and the first row, cool but the enemy has the great fire demon with blast so started to reduce health from my Dark Ha`on and Skeleton Assassin but at that moment the first great move of horny toad came, a nice melee attack with poison so be careful Cain Golem you are going to die.

Chain Golem attacks lord Arianthus but there is no more enemy monsters that can attack, Sand Worm and Ettin Espearman a hit for the one and a miss from the second the round is over.

Second Round started and poison made effect, also Vampire started to gain health by attacking and finally the first dead, goodbye fire demon followed by an attack made by Octospider that destroyed Chain Golem.

That was not enough just 4 monsters left, Cerberus cam to the first row but what a nice surprise,horny toad was waiting for it and attacks it with a nice dose of poison, then the only enemy monsters able to attacks, Sand Worm and Ettin Espearman once again try to attack my beautiful dark ha`on but at least one of those was unable to make it.

Finally, the third round started and what happened?, poison and the attacks of vampire in an easy move, goodbye Cerberus did not have time to use its heal ability.

The monsters that were alive Pit Ogre, Sand Worm and Ettin Espearman, Pit Ogre is a great card but noneone can defeat Lord Arianthus and with the help of Horny toad everything was easier.

An attack made by Octospider makes enrage Pit Ogre was able to use 5 melee attack againt Lord Arianthus and use Stun Ability but Lord Arianthus is a no attack card so torns to Pit ogre and them horny toad destroy Pit Ogre taking 3 and leave it with no health.

With just two monsters on the row all that I need was wait and the sound of victory came.

Horny toad is a great partner monster, I use it a lot and poison is a great ability that can change the battle.
