Today I'm going to talk about the summoner Yodin Zaku in Splinterlands, so join me on this brief journey of learning about the game.
Yodin Zaku is a summoner from the Fire deck, and he's one of my favorite choices for battles with this deck because my cards deal a lot of damage with him, especially cards with ranged attacks.
To use Yodin Zaku in battles, you need to spend 7 mana, and he will grant you the following benefits:
Yodin Zaku will increase the ranged attack of your monsters with ranged attacks by +1.
Yodin Zaku will increase the life of your monsters in battle by +1.
Yodin Zaku will grant the Blast ability to all your monsters in battle.
I'm not a fan of monsters with ranged attacks, but whenever I use Yodin Zaku in my battles, I give them more preference. The great advantage of Yodin Zaku, in my opinion, is the Blast ability.
Blast: Deals an additional 50% damage (rounded up) to units adjacent to the target.
The Blast ability is one of my favorites in Splinterlands, and if you're wondering how powerful this ability is, then come and experience it on the battlefield.
Watch The Battle
This is a good example of a battle where choosing Yodin Zaku is a great choice.
In the battle I have 41 mana available, which is good news because using Yodin Zaku costs a considerable amount of mana, so I recommend you only use it in battles with a good amount of mana available.
There are 2 battle rules: Dragon Breath and Arcane Dampening.
Dragon Breath: Units hit directly by a Magic or Ranged attack receive the Burning effect. At the beginning of each round, Burning has a 33% chance to spread to adjacent units. All Burning units lose 2 Health each round.
Arcane Dampening: All units have the Void ability.
This is a good battle type because using monsters with magic attacks will be a disadvantage, so the preference for monsters with ranged attacks is greater.
The Dragon Breath battle rule is an additional incentive for you to finish the battle as quickly as possible, so having strong firepower is a great idea.
My strategy in the battle was to increase the attack speed of my monsters, and this is a great strategy when you use the summoner Yodin Zaku because you will have more chances to attack first and quickly eliminate your opponent's monsters.
Another important detail was my use of Spirit Miner in the battle. I've already mentioned how amazing this card is, and in this battle it was very useful because it has the Swiftness ability to increase the attack speed of my monsters and also the Blind ability to decrease the chances of the opponent's monsters hitting their attacks. This is a powerful combination when your focus is on increasing the attack speed of your monsters.
The battle only lasted 2 rounds, which shows how Yodin Zaku has destructive power in battles, but my opponent also had a good strategy, and I also really like the summoner Conqueror Jacek.
