Hello, everyone. KonAqua-desu! This is my first attempt on joining Splinterland's Social Media Challenge, where, as the title suggests, share your experiences and insights in one of your battles to other social medias like Facebook or Twitter. I hope you support this journey of mine as well. Enjoy!


Introduction


Tarsa is probably my most favorite card in the game. The artwork is really cute and the you can somewhat relate to the lore. People misunderstands her but Tarsa is an achiever. The only issue she has is she's one of the people that does not care whoever she steps on to stand at the top.

The village folk always say that Tarsa was born with fire in her blood, and that is true in many ways. Her burning rage and quick temper are amplified by her powers to summon and control fire. While her parents and teachers tried to instill patience for such dangerous magic, Tarsa had little time for that. She used her abilities to bully and threaten those that got in her way.
Her young and innocent-looking appearance only helped her to further manipulate people around her. “Tarsa always gets what Tarsa wants” is what she says to herself every time something or someone challenges her.
When the Chaos Legion arrived, Tarsa saw this as an opportunity to have free reign of her fire power without interference from anyone else. So long as the Chaos Legion opens the path for her, she can burn everything else to the ground.
Tarsa's laugh echoed into the night. She stood in the middle of the wide-open plains, a blanket of stars above. Her arms moved in circles around her as she controlled a raging torrent of fire. It spun about her, embers drifting up into the night.
She was surrounded by a tribe of barbarians. Barbarians that were angry she was on their land, using their resources, and hunting their animals. They tried to talk to her, but Tarsa cared little for conversation. She was stronger than all of them combined.

She flicked her wrist and bolts of fire shot from her spinning torrent, impacting the warriors around her. They screamed. She laughed.
“Well, come on!” she shouted. “Let's see if any of you are strong enough for Tarsa!”

Card lore can be found on the Splinterlands Website.



Monster Stats and Skills





Tarsa provides +1 Health and +1 Melee Damage. Both are really useful and probably the best ones in the game as it increases the chance your team survives while also decreases the opponent's team's chance to survive,

Author's Notes

Tarsa is quite strong to be honest. She's an improvement of her predecessor, Malric Inferno. Both increases the team's melee damage but Tarsa provides an additional health to the team at the cost of 1 mana cost. She has a lot of compatibility with the Fire cards because most of them (or the good ones, at least) have melee damage, which is affected by her abilities.

Overall, she's an amazing summoner and her artwork is cute. The color palette is amazing and the design on her overalls are amazing as well. The only disappointment is that the artwork was intentionally cut unlike the previous ones that have full art from head to toe.
