Hello

I hope you're having a great day!

Welcome back to my blog where I'll try to review splinterlands card in every detailed way possible with a gameplay of the card.

This time... I'm going to review CENTAURI MAGE.

CENTAURI MAGE (RARE Earth Monster)

The magic of the Centauri people of northern Anumün is so secretive that it is a wonder their Mages make any demonstrations of their powers in the Mount Mox Arena at all. The audiences are always thrilled to see their magic attacks, especially at dusk and sunset, when they create a chillingly beautiful (and deadly) green light show. Not only does this magic rain green fire onto the enemy, but with proper concentration from the Mage, it also refortifies the defenses of the friendly team. Among the Centaurs, those who practice these ancient ways of magic are extremely rare. They spend most of their time close to Kron, protecting him from all the wild creatures outside his Citadel - Source.

In level 1, this card contains 1 magic attack, 3 speed & 9 health with "Return Fire" ability.
And it needs 7 mana for battling.

Go on check out this card from Splinterlands Market if you wish to.

Return Fire Ability: When hit with a ranged attack, monsters with returned fire will return reduced damage back to their attacker.
That means... if your ranged attack monster hit this card then it will get his hit back.

This card can be combined till max level 8 with 115 cards.
Each level gives different stats such as...

  • LVL 1 with 1 card gives 1 magic attack, 3 speed, 0 shield & 9 health includes "Return Fire" ability.
  • LVL 2 with 5 cards gives 1 magic attack, 3 speed, 0 shield & 10 health includes "Return Fire" ability.
  • LVL 3 with 14 cards gives 2 magic attack, 3 speed, 0 shield & 9 health includes "Return Fire" ability.
  • LVL 4 with 25 cards gives 2 magic attack, 3 speed, 0 shield & 10 health includes "Return Fire" ability.
  • LVL 5 with 40 cards gives 2 magic attack, 3 speed, 0 shield & 9 health includes "Return Fire & Repair" ability.
  • LVL 6 with 60 cards gives 2 magic attack, 3 speed, 0 shield & 10 health includes "Return Fire & Repair" ability.
  • LVL 7 with 85 cards gives 2 magic attack, 4 speed, 0 shield & 10 health includes "Return Fire & Repair" ability.
  • LVL 8with 115 cards gives 3 magic attack, 4 speed, 0 shield & 910 health includes "Return Fire & Repair" ability.

I've seen this card just today in the market and I thought it can be a nice asset.
So I didn't wait any longer and I bought 14 cards while one worth around 0.11$ and combined em into level 3.
I think level 3 is enough for me right now and if I need then I'll level it up again in the near future.

I liked the graphic of this monster.
It did remind me of my childhood cause there were some creatures like this in the Hercules game that I used to play as a kid.

It has magic attack, big life and nice abilities.
I can say it's a total package.


I did some battle with this card already although I didn't win in any but I think it was worth trying.

Let me show one of my battle using this card.

Link to the battle.

A Brief Info About The Match

The battles mana cap was 50 with "Weak Magic & Healed Out" Rules.
Both of us used earth splinter in this battle.

My lineup

image.png

I had my Nectar Queen in level 6, Minotaur Warrior in level 6, Prismatic Energy in level 5, Centauri Mage in level 3, Javelin Thrower in level 4 & Barking Spider in level 5.
It was my setup.

And my opponent had his cards as Queen in level 1, Unicorn Mustang in level 1, Goblin Mech in level 5, Prismatic Energy in level 4, Mushroom Seer in level 4 & Javelin Thrower in level 4.

That means... I had better cards than my opponent.
But it's sad to say that still I was the loser.


Let me talk about cards that I used in this battle.

Summoner: Lyanna Natura (Rare Earth Summoner)

After the Magi of the Forest, Lyanna is the greatest summoner from Anumün. She has many powers in addition to summoning, including her ability to communicate clearly with animals. She is married to Aggrodius Lightbringer, and they live together in Draykh-Nahka with their two daughters, Kiara and Talia. Lyanna lives a busy and high-profile life, very different from her simple past on the Lyverian countrysidem - Source.

My Lyanna Natura is in level 5 and she offers +1 health to mosnters.
It needs 3 mana.

No 01: Nectar Queen (Common Earth Monster)

Unlike most queen bees, Nectar Queens like to get out of the nest and get their Proboscis dirty. Fortunately, you can hear one coming long before it reaches you. Unfortunately, they have a real taste for blood. Source.

My Nectar Queen is in level 6 with 4 melee attack, 4 speed, 12 health with "Flying & Retaliate" ability.
It needs 9 mana.

No 02: Minotaur Warrior (Common Earth Monster)

The Minotaurs are the only people in Anumün rugged enough to inhabit the Giant Grasslands of Primordia, where the Dinosaurs roam. They live in wandering tribes, sleeping in hide tents and hunting Rexxies for their meat, clothing and weapons. Minotaur spears are longer than they seem - Source.

My Minotaur Warrior is in level 6 with 2 melee attack, 4 speed, 1 shield & 4 health with "Reach & Piercing" ability.
It needs 4 mana.

Go on check out this card from Splinterlands Market if you wish to.

No 03: Prismatic Energy (Rare Neutral Monster)

A Gloridax experiment gone awry has resulted in a blinding Prismatic Energy loose in the Splinterlands. The Gloridax news briefs have assured the public that there is only one Prism on the loose, but the mysterious Energy moves fast, leaving a wake of magical destruction wherever it goes. Source

My Prismatic Energy is in level 6 with 2 magic attack, 5 speed, 10 health with "Magic Reflect & Void" ability.
It needs 8 mana.

No 05: Javelin Thrower (Rare Earth Monster)

The Javelin Throwers are an especially savage small tribe of female warriors who live in the Giant Grasslands of Primordia. Well known for wearing suits made from the skins of reptiles they kill, these wild women are rarely seen in any settlement or city. Source.

My Javelin Thrower is in level with 3 ranged attack, 5 speed, 5 health with "Piercing" ability.
It needs 5 mana.

Go on check out this card from Splinterlands Market if you wish to.

No 06: Barking Spider (Common Earth Monster)

These terrifying Spiders are typically found in the darker parts of the Splintral forests. Not only do they sometimes grow to the size of a whole chicken, but they emit a horrible barking sound all night long, as well as an unpleasant odor - Source.

My is in level 5 with 2 ranged attack, 3 speed & 6 health.
It needs 4 mana.
