Hello Splinterlands summoners and welcome back to my blog!
The Outsider ruleset allows us to use one Wild Mode card in our battles. For players who have a lot of Chaos Legion cards, it's our chance to use those cards again in our battles. One of my favorite tanks from the Chaos Legion set was the Cursed Windeku. It's a low mana tank that has stats and abilities to win battles.
Lore
From the Splinterlands lore:
Cursed Windeku are nightmarish creatures that live in the deepest and darkest woods. They hunt at night, stalking their prey before attacking with their claws, while their thorn-like horns and natural healing ability provide an excellent defense,. They exude a pungent pheromone that reduces the reaction time of their victims, often allowing the Windeku to begin devouring them before they are dead. While these lifeless creatures may appear animalistic, they are highly intelligent. They have heeded the call put forth by the Lord of Darkness. Their thirst for blood is now focused on the Chaos Legion.
Stats and Abilities
The Cursed Windeku is a six mana tank of the Death splinter. At max levels, it deals four melee damage, has eleven health and three speed. His stats are great compared to his mana. He has Thorns that is a powerful ability for a tank as it returns damage to melee attackers. He can also self heal and slows down the enemy team.
I once had a level five Cursed Windeku and at that level is powerful at Gold League. It already has two useful abilities Thorns and Healing along with high melee damage and health stats.
Featured Battle
The featured battle occurred at the high levels of Gold League. It's a low mana battle that's ideal for the Cursed Windeku. Player Ultimatechoice has a maxed level Cursed Windeku in his team. He's got Lucky Longshot in between two no attack units where her Weapons Training ability grants them range and magic attacks. He also had a couple of strong magic units but with Electrified debilitation.
His enemy also had maxed level archons and units. Dragonlord Mancer is a powerful dragon archon that grants Bloodlust and Corrupted Healing abilities to two units. He also gives Saurians and Bruteborns the Scavenger ability. The battle showcased Cursed Windeku's self sustainability. He was only defeated when the enemy team had only one unit left. At that point, it was already too late. Cursed Windeku's self healing was the crucial advantage that the team had and led the way to victory.
