🔥bring out the big hitters🔥

When the Venari dug their tunnels and burrows, creating the Realm of Silence, little did they know of the ancient creatures they disturbed hidden beneath the ground. Forgotten, from almost a millennia ago, these dragons were awakened and gripped by an everlasting hunger. Unfortunately for the Venari, they were the first poor souls to run into these feral beasts and were sent fleeing through their tunnels in horror at what they'd uncovered. The Desert Dragon is most commonly found east of the Jade Thickett, on the sandy plains of the Ixzoc. Its long neck is banded red and black, with savage horns that sprout from its head and vicious fangs more wicked than scimitars that line its jaws. Quite often assumed as a lumbering, flightless giant with wings that are tattered and torn, many make the mistake that it cannot move quickly and will sometimes stray too close. But any that have seen it hunt the plain grazers will know, not only can the beast move with considerable speed, the terrifying charge will often leave its target rooted to the spot with terror, unable to flee its impending doom. The Desert Dragon is so big that on rare occasions its attack has been mistaken for seismic activity and minor earthquakes.

How's it going fellow Splinterlands players? Are you still in the game? I've noticed a lot of people have dropped out of playing in my guild and the competition is pretty soft. I've also been able to MAX out some cards I've been wanting for a long time for super cheap.

While I'm happy to get these cards for a few dollars, I feel bad for anyone who MAXed them out for hundreds of dollars when they were new. I bet they are feeling pretty mad right now. I hope that things stay cheap for a while longer so I can get a fully MAX-level Chaos set, but things can't go on like this forever or the game will die. I remember Matt said in the last Town Hall that they have about a six-month runway left. Even if the game does die I think we'll still own our cards and if or when the economy gets better the game can relaunch.

My battle today allowed for melee monsters to attack from any position and was mana heavy so I got to use some niche cards for the first time like my newly MAXed Forgotten One and the Desert Dragon. It was also a no-neutrals-allowed fight so both my enemy and I went with Dragon and Fire to get the most options. It was also a blast battle so I chose a ranged attack card that was pretty fast so I'd get the first hit in and my summoner increased everyone's speed so that also gave me the edge. I thought I was going to lose this battle, but The Forgotten One was able to take out two monsters with one strike with his heavy attack that pierces through shields turning the battle in my favor for the win.

This new summoner looks pretty cool. Have you entered any of the conflicts so you can win this for free? I've been unlucky and haven't won anything yet, but I'm sure I'll get at least one of the airdropped cards eventually. Well, thanks for reading about my battle today. It looks like it's just us true gamers who are still left playing the game. Let's hope we're here for another six years...
