Greetings to all my fellow players around the world and to Splinterlands. How are you all doing Splinters? Hope you are all doing great.
We are back again at our weekly Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge and all about Hidden Gems.
For those who follow me I been playing with bronze level deck and has been very active in tournament. My hidden gem that I will sharing will be Musa Saline. A Legendary Soulbound Rewards Card in Chaos Legion Set. Lets have a look at his lore and stats.
LORE
Musa Saline is the head of the army of Tsuna, a merfolk kingdom off the eastern coast of Praetoria, near Tanglethorn Peninsula. He and those under his command are responsible for protecting the royal family and the people of Tsuna from pirates, raiders, beasts of the deep, and rebels.-Splinterlands
The stats of Musa Saline is not that impressive when it comes to damage with only 1 magic and 3 health at level 1, thats why its not that heavily use. But, it is compensated by his scavenger ability and of course he is just 3 mana. Not to mention it is a beautiful work of art design card😊. I will not go into detail of his different stats as he levels up since I will just be using him at level 1.
THE BATTLE
Battle modifiers:
- ARMORED UP
- MANEUVER
- LITTLE LEAGUE
- 59 MANA CAP
We can only 4 mana Archons and Units at this battle, this is kinda hard since most of the cards at 4 mana have low health and low damage with the exception of a few cards. Armored up rule is best when a unit have a void armor or the Archons have that ability, and to counter this you can use the shatter or piercing ability, but I don't have those. I didn't pay much attention at Manuever rule. The mana gives us no problem we can only use maximum of 28 mana in total for this little league rule.
VS
It clearly shows the dept of enemys deck, an all out magic attack except for his tank Xenith Monk and with a boost from Alric. But I am not sure why he chose fk use only 5 unit, just my guess, he runs out of time. And that mistake will make him pay in this battle.
My tank Thraga has void ability but the magic damage of my enemy is just too much for him. My demoralise and protect is somehow becomes useless as well, wailing wrait is the only one that will benefits for his armored strike. But I have a trump card, the head of the army of Tsuna, MUSA SALINE.
By taking a look of both teams line up we can immidiately guess that the enemy will come out victor.
Here is the play by play breakdown of the battle.
ROUND 1
The enemeys magic power is heavy that in one hit my Revenhood Warden will be killed. My tank, Thraga will also die here in the first round. While the enemy will keep his line up intack.
ROUND 2
At the beggining of round 2, Shock Trooper's Electrified ability will take effect, it will deals 1 health damage to his whole team. Using this unit gives the team huge magic damage in exchange for 1 health to all allied unit in every round, could be beneficial but could also brought tragedy. Xenith Monk of my enemy will die in this round, a big change in the game since it has healing ability. My Wailing Wrait as well will be killed. Enemy teams health is declining while Musa Saline starts to pick up his game. Slowly building his health from the dead unit of both sides due to his Scavenger ability.
ROUND 3
Beggining of round 3 another zap from Shock trooper, none of his unit will die in this round, while Musa Saline is the my only card left with 3 health. Lets move to round 4 the final round.
ROUND 4
Instantly 2 cards will die from my enemy due to zap again.
MUSA SALINE may have lost the spotlight, an underated Legendary, was able to provide me with a clutch win, my old favorite and my hidden gem.
