Now before getting into the stats discussion of the Monster, let's have a sneak peek into his LORE
- It starts off with 1 Magic Attack, 1 Speed, 0 Armor and 3 Health, but most importantly it has the Triage ability right from the start, which allows it to heal the back-line of its team.
- At level 2 it gains the Dispel ability which allows it to dispel any buffs on the enemy targets hit by its attacks.
- At level 3 it gains yet another great Ability - Blind (All enemy Melee & Ranged attacks have an increased chance of missing their target).
- Finally maxed out at level 4 it has 2 Magic Attack, 1 Speed, 0 Armor and 3 Health. It does not gain any additional abilities but the ones it already has are more than adequate for its Mana Cost and overall power level.
Now that we know what the card does (or doesn't do) at the different levels of play, let us have a look at the battle I have chosen to showcase.
<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>BATTLE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>
- The line-up of the Battle and the Ruleset:
It is time for a quick round by round analysis:
- The Summoner I am going with for this battle (as you might have guessed) is my very own Immortalis. I actually maxed him out earlier today but the battle we are going to witness is from Gold league so that does not matter for the outcome of this battle in particular. Immortalis is specifically great for the Wands Out ruleset due to the Void ability (Reduced damage from Magic attacks) he provides to all friendly Monsters. I have my Mycelic Slipspawn at the back with Runemancer Florre right next to it so that they can be healed from any incoming damage by the Spirit Hoarder and Queen Mycelia. Moveover Florre has a very large health pool, so this should allow her to survive the incoming splash damage even for as long as the Slipspawn is also alive. By the looks of it my opponent has a fairly similar strategy. One thing I don't understand is why the Splispawn is placed in the 5th and not the 6th spot of the enemy back-line. This could be very crucial for the outcome of the battle.
- After 1 round both "tanks" are still standing, however, there are a few notable things here. First of all thanks to the Silence provided by my Goblin Psychic my Monster are taking basically 0 splash damage and that's just super. On the other hand you can see that the position of the enemy Splispawn is wrecking the enemy back line and Queen Mycelia can't keep up. Even Kron has some trouble keeping himself up. On the other hand my Slipspawn is at full health, unfortunately the enemy Dr. Blight has managed to cast Affliction on it so it will no longer be a legitimate target for the friendly healers.
- At the start of Round 3 the enemy has lost two Monsters while none of mine have perished yet, and the enemy Pelacor is also about to die to the first Monster with more than 1 Magic Attack that hits it. The enemy Dr. Blight has not managed to accumulate any additional health points at all.
- Round 4 - all that is left for me is to finish off Dr. Blight and Kron. This was a relatively easy victory not without the kind assistance of the enemy tactician who chose that awkward spot for their Slipspawn given the fact that the battle had the Explosive Weaponry ruleset active.
- While my victory seemed relatively easy, Splintertools.io actually shows that I had a.... 100% chance to win.. So definitely nothing surprising here. Defeat does not seem to have been an option.
The Spirit Hoarder is a great Neutral Support Monster, specifically adept at healing the back-line of your team. It could be useful at level 1 but, of course, if you want to use it with no potential RP penalty in the League you are competing in and take advantage of the additional abilities it gains, it is a good idea to get enough copies and level it to the respective level. At $5.30 per BCX it is one of the more accessible Legendaries of the Chaos Legion lot, especially compared to our Queen Mycelia, whose price is currently 2x.
