Happy Sunday, warriors! With just a day and a few hours left until the current season ends, I finally got my breakthrough! Silver 1 unlocked 🤗.
Welcome to my blog, 
Splinterlands is no walk in the park, but that's what amps up the excitement.A winning strategy weighs stats, abilities, rulesets, mana caps, and beyond. That's why you must factor them all into your deck building. Toss in strong cards to boost your setups, and push hard to rack up as many victories as possible! 🔥
THE REWARDS: I am so happy with the merits award.
Without much ado and I would keep doing this, from the heart,I am dedicating these rewards to my inspirations; 
THE BATTLE THAT LED TO THIS BREAKTHROUGH.
Ruleset and lineup
The rules for this battle says;
- "all nonflying and snared units takes 2 physical damage at the beginning of each round starting from round 2".
In splinterlands it is very important you pay attention to the ruleset,it helps alot.And I love explaining ruleset,one or two persons might learn from it. This rule is straight forward and it is called Earthquake in the #splinterlands community.
Earthquake is 2 physical damage to every non-flying, non-snared unit at the start of Round 2 and every round after.In this battle,no flyers on either side, so both teams were bleeding 2 HP per monster every round.Pure attrition war. The team that could heal, revive, or kill supports faster won the long game.Pure survival mode.
The mana cost for this battle was 59,an opportunity to pick the very best to form your Deck and you are to pick from the water,death and dragon splinters.
My Lineup (Water Magic Synergy Build)
Summoner: Marlai Singariel gives +1 Magic Attack to every one of my monsters. Turning the whole squad into a glass cannons.
Tank (1): Thanalorian Scion, with Void Armor + Corrosive Ward. High-armor beast that shrugs magic and debuffs incoming attackers.
Abyssal Elemental with Resurgence (the MVP). Dies once,but comes back with full-health/armor revive with buffs back on and a -1 damage phys splash to everyone. In an EQ grind, this is basically two lives for the price of one.
Arachne Skinwalker, with Inspire (+1 Melee to all allies) + magic damage + shapeshift flexibility.
Captain Fellblade with Sneak.From anywhere except the front line she lasers the enemy’s last position. Backline assassin supreme.
Warborn Shaman,with Void Armor + magic damage. Extra magic tank that laughs at enemy casters.
My Opponent’s Lineup (Zeddica Ultra-Tanky Heal Fortress)
Summoner: Zeddica (Level 3),Water/Death hybrid for the super-tank build.
Position 1 (Tank): Ulindin Overseer – Massive armor + Flank.
Position 2 (Assist Tank): Commander Slade – Enfeeble, Dodge, Reflection Shield.
Position 3: Arachne Weaver – Corrupted Healing (the key sustain piece).
Position 4: Chaos Battle Mage – Piercing.
Position 5: Meriput – Impede + Slow.
Position 6: Razorhound – Strengthen + True Strike.
Round 1
Both teams clash hard. My Marlai +1 Magic makes every hit sting more than expected. His double-tank wall (Ulindin + Slade) looks unbreakable, and Arachne Weaver starts setting up heals.But nothing crazy yet. Earthquake hasn’t triggered.
My opponent's tank has really taken severe hit from my backliner, Captain Fellblade,you can see is health showing just +1.
Round 1 episode 19 & 20
You can clearly see Arachne weaver, activating is corrupted healing ability
Round 1 episode 23
Lost my tank after corrupted healing was activated
Round 2
The Earthquake Moment That Changed Everything.
Earthquake fires 2 physical damage to every ground unit.
Round 2 episode 4 & 14
My opponent lost a monster and his tank
Round 3
Another new round, Earthquake rule activated The Arachne Weaver dies right here to the Earthquake damage and my resurgence from abyssal elemental was the final nail.
This single rule kill was devastating .His entire sustain plan (continuous corrupted healing) got deleted before it could really ramp up.
Round 3
Resurgence by abyssal elemental
Arachne weaver and a monster dies.
Three against one
Game over
Thank you so much for reading and watching my post. Yours truly,
