Hello, my fellow splinterlands lovers!

I hope you all are doing well in your life and also enjoying the Splinterlands game. A few days ago, I published my first Ability Analysis post on Martyr ability, and today, in this post I am going to discuss about Affliction ability. All those who playing the Splinterlands game know about this ability; it's an anti-heal ability. When a Monster with Affliction hits a target, it has a 50% chance of applying Affliction on the target causing it to be unable to be healed. A total of 24 cards have this ability; one is a summoner. So let's check out those cards and how good/bad they are on the battlefield.

It's got a maximum of 4 (melee attack), 5 & 4 on max level. MAGMA TROLL only costs 4 mana so it's suitable for low mana battles and it also has a high damage-to-mana ratio, so it's a cost-effective option for dealing damage in the Back to Basics ruleset.
