Greetings, brave warriors of Splinterlands! The adventure continues and I can't stop being excited about the new Rebellion reward cards.
Quite often such monster as GIANT ALPINE SKINK falls out of chests and it seems that I will soon pump mine up to level 4, and last night it helped me a lot in the battle against a rather strong opponent.
With a rather high summoning cost of 8 mana, he has pretty good attack parameters, shield and 7 life, but most importantly he has the SHIELD ability, which reduces damage from melee and ranged attacks, so you can safely use him as a “tank” in the first position.
Taking into account the MANEUVERSE rule, I put COASTAL SENTRY with double attack on the second position, followed by MUSA SALINE, which replenishes its vitality at the expense of the fallen :)
I finished the combo with HALFLING ALCHEMIST and I was hoping that his HALVING ability would weaken the enemy tank.
And I got a serious opponent! Level 7 summoner. Powerful gladiator ISGALD VORST, thoroughly pumped RIVERBOAT CAPTAIN and, in addition, VENARY MARKSRAT, which at his death will strengthen the parameters of allies ...
I was glad that my bet on GIANT ALPINE SKINK had worked. It didn't do much damage, but it kept the enemy's attacks at bay while COASTAL SENTRY was crushing enemies and MUSA SALINE was building up life.
Round 4 was especially hot and I was able to gain an advantage in the fight.
I'm very excited about these battles and look forward to meeting you on the battlefield!
