Hello fellow gamers! It’s that time of the week again where I talk about my weekly battles. This weeks theme is DRAGONS. As usual I don’t have the card so I head over to peak monsters to rent one for myself. This was kind of a tough choice because I planned to rent a totally new card. One I hadn’t used before.
After much deliberation I made a choice. And the lucky card is...!!!!!
THE FIRE SPITTER
The Small but mighty, the Fire Spitters have of recent descended upon the Dragon Splinter of Draykh-Nahka, where they fit perfectly in. They come from a faraway exotic place only which is known as the Pocket Dimension. The Pocket Dimension has many key differences to the Splinterlands, but they lots of things in common as well. Most of the monsters there are smaller than those native to the Splinterlands, including the Fire Spitter. However, even the smallest Fire Spitters can produce the most magnificent blaze, large enough to easily incinerate a cottage in a few minutes.
STATS OF THR CARD

- This card maintains x4 speed throughout all levels
- It possesses the flying ability from level one to five. Getting to level six, an additional ability is added, the dodge ability

MY STRATEGY/ LINEUP
Battle Rules = Standard
Mana Cap = 29
I planned to select each of my cards with caution. There was no room for defeat.
| My Splint | Enemy’s Splint |
|---|---|
| Dragon | Life |
Summoner

| Name | Drake of Arnak |
|---|---|

This was the only summoner available under the dragon splint
Monster 1

| Edition | Chaos Legion |
| Splint | Water |
| Rarity | Legendary (Yellow) |
| Attack | x2 Magic Attack |

This card had great stats. The health points and speed was enough to hold my frontline for a considerable amount of time.
Monster 2

| Name | Fire Spitter |
|---|---|
| Mana cost | Four |
| Edition | Reward |
| Splint | Dragon |
| Rarity | Epic (Purple) |
| Attack | x2 Ranged Attack |
| Speed | x4 |
| Health | Four |
| Ability | Flying |
Apart from being my pick for this weeks theme, this card was perfect as the second in command because of its ranged attack and fast speed. It’s ability was like a bonus as well.
Monster 3

| Name | Deep Lurker |
|---|---|
| Mana Cost | Six |
| Edition | Chaos Legion |
| Splint | Water |
| Rarity | Common (Grey) |
| Attack | x3 Melee attack |
| Speed | x2 |
| Health | Six |
| Ability | Opportunity |
Now I would have three forms of attack; Melee, Ranged and Magic. This card would help get rid of my enemy’s weak cards with it’s ability.
Monster 4

| Name | Merdaali Guardian |
|---|---|
| Mana Cost | Three |
| Edition | Chaos Legion |
| Splint | Water |
| Rarity | Rare (Blue) |
| Speed | x2 |
| Health | Three |
| Ability | Tank Heal |
I picked this card because of it’s ability which would further preserve the cards in the first line.
Monster 5

| Name | Tower Griffin |
|---|---|
| Mana cost | Four |
| Edition | Untamed |
| Splint | Neutral |
| Rarity | Rare (Blue) |
| Speed | x3 |
| Attack | x1 Ranged attack |
| Health | Three |
| Ability | Flying |
With just four mana cap left, I picked Tower Griffin as my last monster. It’s flying ability would help it maneuver the attacks from my enemy.
