Hello Splinterlands summoners and welcome to my blog. Today's post covers the epic Water splinter card, Warwall Juggernaut. We'll do a deep dive into its lore, stats & abilities as well as possible combos and rulesets.
Lore
This guy's lore reminds me of the movie "Sisu". He doesn't give up and a real bad ass that enemies should beware of. Here's an excerpt of his lore from Splinterlands.
Makono Bahari lost his leg at the Battle of Mzizi Crossing.
Trapped beneath a collapsed trench wall, his leg shattered and his allies dead or scattered, he cut the ruined limb off with a broken shovel and crawled three kilometers through war-ravaged mud. When he encountered an enemy officer, Makono bested him in combat and used the man as a crutch until they reached an Ulundin outpost.
When he recovered, he forged himself a new leg of cold steel, ending in a wicked, bladed tip. He named it Second Chance.
Makono doesn’t carry a sword or a spear. He doesn’t need to. He has Second Chance. And in each hand, he carries a shield—one to protect, one to punish.
Stats and Abilities
Warwall Juggernaut deals four melee damage and has three speed. He's got great defense of five armor and twelve health making him a great secondary tank. He's got great offensive capabilities having Reach and Armored Strike abilities. He also has Painforge and Amplify abilities. For players with limited budget, a level two has good stats and abilities that will carry you to the Silver and lower Gold Leagues.
Role and Battle and Possible Combos
Warwall Juggernaut's role is to be a secondary tank placed in second position. His Reach ability coupled with his offensive and defensive stats make him perfect for this position and will be a capable tank to replace your main tank when it gets defeated. He will be a perfect partner to other great Water tanks like Commander Slade and Giant Alpine Skink. Alternatively, he can also be summoned by the Life archon since he's an Ulund. He can combo with the likes of Leolin Sifu or Saltwraith Bulkhead.
Featured Battle
Today's battle is between cryptoreaper who has the Warwall Juggernaut in his team against another top player in the higher Gold League. Cryptoreaper used tactics archon Prophet Rosa. He had Commander Slade in the tank position followed by Warwall Juggernaut. These two are a strong frontline combining strong offense with sturdy defense. In third, he had the Halfling Refugee for a third tank. In fourth position was another Ulund, Runik Skychonk. It has Repair among its many abilities. This is great since it further strengthens the tanks. In fifth and last positions were long range hitters Shock Trooper and Razorhound. Shock Trooper also combos with Warwall Juggernaut with its Electrified ability adding power to Warwall Juggernaut because of its Painforge ability.
His enemy had the legendary dragon archon Akane. The team had Halfling Refugee as a tank followed by long range hitters. The enemy's damage dealers were composed of magic, ranged and melee units with Charge and Opportunity abilities. The enemy's strategy was to depend on his long range hitters since his frontline is much weaker than cryptoreaper's.
Cryptoreaper's strong frontline proved to be the better strategy as it survived longer than his enemy's units. This allowed his backline units to do more damage and eliminate the enemy faster.
