Splinterlands - Social media Challenge - A Battle of Lily Shieldpaws
Hello Friends,
We are at the mid of another great week and also almost into the last week of January!!!
Time has flown so fast and it's as if yesterday we celebrated the new year.
But, it's definitely a good start to the new year and I have been blogging almost every day and doing my bit to keep myself active on this wonderful Blockchain and has been active on X too.
This week's Social Media Challenge is with something new as it is with some new rules being incorporated while curating the blogs by Splinterlands community as they want to ensure the rewards earned are utilized for the growth of the game and Hive blockchain in general.
I totally agree with this and happy that I have been using the Hive and HBD earned to invest in Hive Power and other Second layer coins on Hive Engine and I have also used large part of my Hive into buying SPS as well as the staked SPS has grown to 85K for me.
Let's hope we all continue growing this wonderful community and also Hive Blockchain by contributing in whatever way we can.
For this week's Social Media Challenge, I would like to share a battle of Lilly Shieldpaw, the summoner from dragon splinter which provides camouflage to all the monsters and also gives an option to heal one of the backend monsters in each round.
So, I just wanted to make use of the triage ability and also since the battle I am sharing is with reverse speed ruleset, I wanted to make use of camouflage ability by placing a taunt monster in Agor Longtail at the backend and win this battle.
Here I go with the details.
Battle and Lineup:
https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_55debf693313b07da22afbc4eef5eaa0?ref=coolguy123
The battle had 50 MANA cap and the only splinters active for this battle were Fire and Dragon.
The 50 MANA cap along with rule sets of reverse speed, close ranged and thorns made me to use a combination of ranged attack monsters.
Considering this, I thought of using Dragon splinter's amazing monster of Agor Longtail along with monsters combination as below.
Lineup:
1. Forgotten One:
Since the battle had the reverse speed ruleset and this monster with 2 speed and retaliate, pierce abilities, it made me to use at the front position as it will give 5 melee attack and has good health of 10 with armors of 5.
Since I had planned to use Agor Longtail in the last position, this monster will be under less pressure as the attack will be flowing towards Agor Longtail.
2. Lava Launcher:
The close range ruleset doesn't affect this as is already a close range attacker but the armors. good attack and stun ability it has, made me to use it in Second position and It wasn't required much since Forgotten One managed to stay for most part of the battle.
3. Sanctus Vicar:
Sanctus Vicar is a good monster for many reasons, when we plan to clear the debuffs this monster is a good one as it can cleanse the last monster and then subsequent ones in each round and it can also cleanse the front monster.
4. Spirit Hoarder:
As I had made my mind to use Agor Longtail in the last position to divert the attack, I thought of using this monster with triage ability to keep Agor active in the battle and this monster was never removed throughout the battle.
Besides triage, it also had blindfold ability and dispel to remove the additional buffs the monsters might have got.
5. Xenith Archer:
I just used this to accommodate the 2 remaining MANA cost as it can give 2 ranged attack for 2 cost.
6. Agor Longtail:
Used this specifically for diverting the attack from opponent and it has flying, healing and void magic abilities besides taunt and it is a dual attack monster as well.
The triage from summoner and also from Spirit Hoarder with cleanse from Sanctus Vicar means, this will stay for longer in the battle to keep attracting all the attack.
Here I am sharing few screenshots from the battle just to give a view of how this battle go.
That was a quick battle and opponent's monsters lacked more attack as he used a non attacking monster but his intention was to protect the front monster by building armors, but that didn't work out well.
Thanks for going thru this.
Thanks and Have a good day :)

Since I've been on hive, I've not taking adequate time to understand the splinterland gaming system. Though i'm familiar with splinterland on the hive engine. Hive gaming is really getting more interesting from your post, and I'm giving it a try this year. Wishing you a wonderful moment @coolguy123
It's a nice game and you will be kinda addicted to that once start playing because of the different cards, abilities and the strategy we can build.
If you are starting newly, I mean not yet logged into Splinterlands game yet, you can use my referral link and I will guide and provide intitial handholding with cards delegation.

Yes I'm very interested, and I'm signing up instantly sir. Thank you for the link
Yw buddy, let me know once you signup, will delegate few cards for you to start and will guide you as well on playing those battles.
Oh thank you 😀 @coolguy123. I've signed up, and i just watched the youtube video on the splinterland page, though I'm yet to understand the game. My signup username is "daniky001".
Let me give you few quick steps:
The game is, as you might have understood by now, is a cards game, where, we need to select a summoner First (from different splinters like fire, water, earth, life, death and dragon).
Then, that will enable you to select up to 6 monsters.
Summoners will have abilities to induce to the monsters they summon (you can check on these by clicking on a summoner card from items tab and then selecting cards and filter out for summoners on left side filter options)
Monsters will have their own abilities similar to summoners. Will continue in next one....
You could have used the same id as in daniky, otherwise, it will be like a new account for you when you purchase spell book and you will have separate set of posting, active and other keys
omg, i never knew it'll be creating a new give account. When i chose "daniky" it said "username already existed," but i cannot remember the last time i created an account on splinterland. I used the "forgot password" to check if i truly have an account but no code was sent to my gmail, that was what made me to use daniky001 to register.
Let me try again if "daniky" will still work sir.
Sure buddy
Thanks for sharing! - @mango-juice
