Hello Guys!
It's not too long ago I just posted Waka Spiritblade, Summoner with RNG God! to take part in the Splinterlands Social Media Challenge, and I've been back again with my Splinterlands post, and the purpose of this post is to follow Splinterlands Share Your Battle Weekly Challenge.
The theme for this week is Epic Death Monster, Magi Nacrosi which is a Snipe monster. I will share the battle strategy using this monster, still with the summoner Waka Spiritblade which in the previous post I discussed. I hope you'll like what I share.
Well, I'm neither a proplayer nor a tournament hero. I just enjoys sharing strategy and battles that I find interesting in my own view. I played on modern battles on Diamond leagues, and maybe the battle strategies I'd share weren't suitable to apply in other leagues because the differences in ability that open up are different from each league.
MAGI NECROSI
LORE
Four hundred years before the first rift opened, the first whispers of chaos brought dark beasts under a blood moon to the Tower of Azdurj. Creatures of nightmare began hunting by night, lurking the valleys and crawling on the wind.
In desperation, the acolytes of Azdurj sought forbidden tomes, long sealed beneath their tower. By the candlelight of hidden recesses within their tower's crypt, the first Necrosi were born. Forged to battle the spawn of Chaos, these bounty hunters are eager to take up the fight.
STATS
Magi Necrosi is an Epic monster from the Chaos Legion edition with a capacity of 6 and at level 1 already has 2 abilities, namely Snipe and Camouflage and also has 2 magic damage and 4 HP and have speed 4. I think this is one of the best Epic monsters of the Chaos Legion.
The addition of abilities occurs at level 4 or in the Gold league, namely the Oppres ability will be active and at the max level will be active Stun ability. I think the milestone of every level increase that is owned is very good. And indeed this monster is one of the mainstay monsters of many players from the Death element. If you look at the amount of mana you have, Magi Necrosi is more suitable for Middle and Hight battles. But not infrequently there are also those who use low mana battles.
BATTLE PREPARATION
The rulesets
- Forecity (All monsters have Fury ability)
- Weak Magic (Magic attack hit Armor before reducing health
- Bria Patch (All monster have Thorn ability)
- Mana Capacity 52
- Element Actives Water, Life and Death
Line-Up and Strategy
In accordance with the rules above, I will minimize the use of melee monsters. Magic monsters I will still use but Range monsters will be the most Attackers. And because of this there is a high mana battle, so I don't have to worry about using large mana monsters in my formation. The line-up and strategy of each monster that I chose in my deck formation this time I will explain in the table below:
| Monster | Position | Abilities | Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Waka Spiritblade | Summoner | Poison | There is no particular reason I use this Summoner, but because it is the only Diamond level Death Summoner I have because of the low rent. |
| Harklaw | First Tank | Shield, Immunity, Demoralize | Although in these rulesets, all monsters have Thorn abilities, Harklaw has Shield ability which means counterattack because Thorn will be reduced. So I think its ok to use Harklaw as a tank. Moreover, other abilities that are possessed also strongly support this monster to become a powerful tank. |
| Djinn Muirat | Second Tank, Attacker | Void Armor, Knock Out, Giant Killer, Reflect Magic, Forcefield | I think Djinn Muirat is one of the best Death monsters because of his baility. This monster can double as a Tank or attacker. As an attacker, he has 3 magic damages with Giant Killer and Knock Out abilities, and as a tank, he has hp that is compatible with armor. Having the Void Armor ability which in this battle is useless because of the Weak Magic rulesets, and other abilities Reflect Magic will reverse magic attacks on attackers, as well as Forcefield which is very useful for dispelling Melee attacks. |
| Queen of Crows | Attacker, Support | Close Range, Headwind, Slow | One of the favorite monsters in the Riftwatchers edition, Range monsters that have Close Range abilities that are very suitable to be the third tank or attacker. This monster also has a Headwind ability that reduces the attack range of all opposing monsters, and a Slow that provides debuffs that reduce the speed of all opposing monsters. |
| Lira The Dark | Attacker, Support | Opportunity, Snare, Swiftness | One of the best opportunity monsters because it has a very high speed and considerable damage is 4 Range attacks. In addition, Lira The Dark also has the abilities Snare and Swiftnes which will give buffs to increase the speed of all monster friends. Duet with Queen Of Crows who has the ability Slow will mess up the speed of all the opposing monsters. |
| Dhampir Stalker | Main Attacker | True Strike, Deathblow | Dhampir Stalker has 5 Range of attack damage which is a Deal Damager in this battle. Moreover, according to the rulesets, Range attack is an effective bpaling attack in this battle. Having a True Trike ability that requires attacks from this monster will never be missed, and also a Deathblow ability that deals 2x damage if the target is only left by itself. |
| Magi Necrosi | Attacker | Snipe, Camouflage, Oppress | This is not a max level monster because the rental price of this max-level card is very expensive, but the abilities possessed are enough to compete in the Diamond league. |
You can see the complete line-up of the team in the picture below. The opponent uses Summoner Grandmaster Rathe. The Void Armor Ability is useless in this battle, but maybe the opponent takes advantage of the +1 Armor ability and utilizes the Amplify ability because in this batle all monsters have Thorn abilities.
In the first position there is Uriel The purifier that have Flying, Recharage, and Heal abilities, the second position is Shinkai Harvester, in the third position there is Djinn Renova that have Strengthen and Triage abilities, in fourth place there is Adelade Brightwing that have Flying, Repair and Resurrect abilities, fifth place is Venari Crystalsmith taht have Thank Heal and Dispell abilities, and in the last position there is Gargoya Devil with Flying, Close Range and Deathblow abilities..
BATTLEFIELD ARENA
I have uploaded the video of this battle to my channel, so to see the course of this battle you can also directly click the youtube video below.
In this battle, there is a fairly far difference in speed, on average, my monster has a higher speed than the speed of the opponent's monster. Even so, in the early days of the round, the opposing team's defense was quite difficult to break through. Luckily I only used 1 melee monster, because because the counterattack due to Thorn's ability will be very pronounced because the opponent has Amplify from Summoner.
The first round begins with a feast of buffs and debuffs from all the Monsters and Summoners. The opponent's defense looked very strong in this first round. Because the targets of my monsters are fragmentary because I use Opportunity and Snipe monsters, so no monsters died in the first round, but some monsters were exposed to poison.
The second round begins with Poison dripping about the monsters that in the first round are poisoned. Shinkai Harverter became the first monster to die from being hit by poison and attacks from Lira The Dark but was Resurrected by Adelade Brightwing. The attack from the Queen of Crows missed the mark on Uriel The Purifier, and in this round also my main tank Harklaw died from an attack from. Luckily, Uriel The Purifier's attack after recharging hit Djinn Muirat who has Forcefield ability, so only 1 damage was received.
Early in the third round Uriel The Purifier and Djinn Renova received drops of poison, and not long after thatDjinn Renova died from an attack from Magi Necrosi. My second tank, DjinnMuirat died near the end of the third round due to an attack from the Gargoya Devil.Now there are only 4 monsters left on my side and 5 monsters on the opponent's side
The fourth round begins with Shinkai Harverter dying from poison, and also not long after that Uriel The Purifier dies from an attack from Dhampir Stalker. Now the opponent is no longer a strong Tanker.
The fifth round began with Adelade Brightwing dying of poison. On the opponent's side, there are only 2 monsters left, both of which have been exposed to poison.
Finally I won the sixth pad around with 4 monsters left namely Queen of Crows, Lira The Dark, Dhampir Stalker and Magi Necrosi. You can see the final result of this battle in the picture below.
STRATEGY DISCUSSION
The strategy I used was quite effective in this battle. The poison of the Waka Spiritblade buff is also very helpful. It's just that the defense I have is still not strong because the 2 Tanks I have died quickly. I also misplaced Magi Necrosi in the last position, behind a mosnter range that lacks Close Range ability. It should be more effective if Magi Necrosi is behind the Queen of Crows, because Range monsters without cLose Range ability can only attack if not how much in the first position. Luckily the battle ended after Queen of Crows died.
Magi Necrosi has Camouflage ability since level 1, which means that this monster will not get attacks from Sneak, Snipe, and Opportunity if it is not in the first position. This means that we are free to place these monsters anywhere.
