Hello there my Splinterlands fam,
How are you all? I hope you all enjoyed yourselves enough on your weekend.
So, the third Chaos Legion Legendary Summoner Possibilus The Wise was concluded and as usual, I didn't get any of the airdrop cards with my tiny 9 packs purchased.
I congratulate those who got this fantastic airdrop card.
Moving forward, this week's Share Your Battle Challenge is about the RIVER NYMPH.
Like the previous challenges, I'll share my thoughts about the River Nymph and describe my strategy, and team combination of the best battle of the week using the River Nymph in my team.
So, read on...
THE LORE
The young mage slung spell after spell at the five eldritch creatures advancing toward him out of the forest. However, his magics had no effect. The beasts stalked toward him.
He staggered backward until his sandals splashed into the shallows of the river flowing behind him. They had him surrounded. The things crouched, ready to leap and tear him to pieces.
Energy surged through the young mage. His fatigue vanished, and his eyes widened in surprise. He moved with an unnatural swiftness as he whirled his arms and cast his spells, and this time, they tore into the eldritch creatures, leaving bloody gashes.
Two of the creatures fell dead. A third charged him, and he blasted it fully in the face. It collapsed. But the young mage was unbalanced, and the last two leaped at him. No time to react.
A burst of water magic exploded from somewhere behind him and slammed into the two creatures in succession. They let out a shriek, nightmarish skin-smoking. Then they, too, fell and died.
The young mage whirled. Behind him, a slender woman with flawless blue-green skin, pointed ears, and luxurious dark-blue hair stood in the river. The water flowed around her slim waist, and her fingertips traced circles in the current. Her features were elegant and graceful. A magical fae, born of the river, he thought in awe. She was the most beautiful creature he'd ever seen.
She shot him a crooked grin, winked, and vanished beneath the water's surface.
BATTLE STATS AND ABILITIES OF THE RIVER NYMPH
The River Nymph is a rare water unit card from the Chaos Legion edition.
This magic attack card costs 4 mana to use in the battle which makes this card a low-mana-cost card.
Talking about the abilities, this monster has the 'cleanse' ability from level 1. Using this ability, it removes all negative effects on the monster in the first position on the friendly team.
On level 4, this monster gains the 'amplify' ability. With this ability, this monster increase magic reflect, return fire, and thorns damage to all enemy monsters by 1.
On level 8, the 'swiftness' ability gets activated. With this ability, this monster increases the speed of all the friendly monsters.
The stats of this card also increases through levels, from 1 magic attack, 2 speeds, and, 3 health in level 1, to 1 magic attack, 3 speeds, and 3 health in level 4.
At the highest level 8, the stats of this card are 2 magic attacks, 3 speeds, and, 4 health.
BEST SCENERIOS TO USE RIVER NYMPH EFFECTIVELY
River Nymph is a weak card in terms of attack and health points and at the same time, it also costs less mana to use. So, you can safely use it in low mana-cap battles and battles with the 'little league' ruleset.
Apart from that, its unique ability 'cleanse' makes it the most useful card in the 'noxious fumes' ruleset.
Below, I shared such a battle where I used the River Nymph in the 'noxious fumes' ruleset.
THE BATTLE
Now, it's time to share my strategy and the lineup for the best battle I won using the River Nymph in my team.
RULESET
Mana Cap: 54
Rulesets :-
Noxious Fumes: All monsters start the battle poisoned.
Explosive Weaponry: All monsters have the blast ability.
Active Splinter: Fire, Water, Life, Dragon.
My Strategy and Team Setup
'Noxious fumes' and 'blast', no doubt this is the deadliest combo of all Splinterlands rulesets.
But whenever this ruleset combo arises, I prefer the water splinter the most because of these two useful monsters, River Nymph for 'noxious fumes' and Tide Biter for 'blast' ruleset.
Other than these two monsters, the Ruler Of The Seas increases the speed of all the friendly monsters. And increased speed certainly helps in the 'blast' ruleset.
So, this was my team -
Team Submission
Round 01
Round 02
Round 03

Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?
My strategy worked perfectly in this battle.
Though my opponent was lower in summoner and monster level, he played a clever strategy. If his team was at the highest level, it would be uncertain of my winning.
Anyway, all my monsters worked perfectly as intended.
The River Nymph 'cleanse' the tank Djinn Oshannus, thus he was unaffected by the poison effect. And the Tide Biter protected the backline monsters from the 'blast' effect with his 'reflection shield'.
The Ruler Of The Seas increased the speed of the friendly monsters so that they can attack first.
The rest of the magic attack monsters dealt good damage and destroyed the enemy team to secure my winning.
And that's all for today, guys.
