Splinterlands Social Media Challenge testing ANESTH SOOTHSAYER in real combat
When the advance of the first cards came to light, one of the ones I was most interested in having and in gold was ANASTH SOOTHSAYER and before the official sale of the envelopes I speculated how this monster would improve my strategy of magical attacks on me blue alignment
Now it's time to analyze how this card works in real combat.
MY BATTLE
https://splinterlands.com/?p=battle&id=sl_c7da6076dea33ce877884d8bca6f7e22
BATTLE CONDITIONS
In this battle we can only use cards with magical attack and also only cards with an even mana cost, which does not allow us to summon some cards but those that interest us to make a winning alignment.
Additionally, we can summon all colors except green and 33 mana available, which would limit the number of cards to summon and the size of the mana cost of those cards.
My Team
ALRIC STORMBRINGER
In the battle rule that we have this time where we can only use magic, this summoner is ideal, since it increases the magical power by +4, in addition to being level 3 it allows me to summon the cards at a higher level, it also allows me to It allows me to improve my alignment.
DJINN OSHANNUS
This is the main card of my strategy since in this battle rule it is ideal because it has VOID that reduces by half the damage from the magical attack that this monster receives, plus at level 2 it already learns the ability of PHASE that allows him, in addition to having high speed, to have a great chance of dodging a magical attack.
In addition, this monster also has a great magic attack of 2 that, added to the +1 magic attack that the summoner gives, would give 3 magic attack, which will also help eliminate our opponent faster.
RIVER NYMPH
This card has a low mana cost which allowed us to summon it after placing the rest of the monsters to use, we only had 4 mana available. It also has the CLEANSE ability, which eliminates any negative effect of our first potion card.
RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN
This monster has a great attack of 2 that, added to the +1 attack that the summoner gives it, we have the BLAST ability that will allow me to do 2 damage to the card in second position.
SEA GENIE
In this case I place it because it has a moderate amount of life of 5 and a great magical attack of 2 which, added to the +1 magical attack that the summoner used gives it, would give it 3 magical attack.
ANASTH SOOTHSAYER
This is the revelation card that I most wanted to have in my hands and the time has come to test the theory. This will give my DJINN OSHANNUS tank a greater chance of surviving since it regenerates it and also has the CLEANSE ability.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE BATTLE
RONDA 1
In this round neither my enemy nor I managed to eliminate any monsters.
My monsters all attack his DJINN OSHANNUS and leave him at 2 life ready to die in the next round.
My enemy also attacks with all his monsters but since I am using a level 3 summoner the phase ability of my DJINN OSHANNUS is activated and I manage to dodge 2 of my opponent's 5 attacks in addition to my ANASTH SOOTHSAYER regenerates my DJINN OSHANNUS so it only leaves him at 10 life, that is, he only manages to take -7 life from him.
RONDA 2 y 3
In this round my opponent only manages to deal my DJINN OSHANNUS 1 damage but I manage to eliminate all of his monsters except for RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN who is eliminated in the next turn without him being able to attack.
LAST CONCLUSIONS
Here the key to my victory was my tank's vacuum ability that reduced my opponent's attacks, which unfortunately several of his monsters attack with 1 magic which prevents them from doing damage, in addition to the PHASE ability caused Dodge 2 attacks.
Here we saw the power of my ANASTH SOOTHSAYER that regenerates the life of my tank so the result was the elimination of all his monsters without my opponent barely managing to damage my tank.
To see another example of how ANASTH SOOTHSAYER improves my alignment we have it in this battle.
Here we see that with the VOID and PHASE ability the damage received from my DJINN OSHANNUS is reduced and added to the fact that my ANASTH SOOTHSAYER regenerates it, this did not give any chance to my opponent who only manages to eliminate a single card of mine .
As we see, ANASTH SOOTHSAYER boosts my lineup, making it even more difficult to take down my tank.
Since I wanted to have this card, I couldn't wait for it to appear in the packages and buy it at the market so I could have it and be able to use it.
I hope this post stimulates you to continue exploring the potential of Revelion cards.
Good day
