One of my best Twitter accounts is Splinterlands. It keeps me informed about all the important news in the ecosystem and #Hive posting events like a weekly challenge. In my opinion, those challenges are an incredible way of increasing the pride of being part of this community, as every player shares his/her game experience with others, allowing others to learn about everyone's successes and mistakes. For this one, I will review the impact of the three new rulesets on my favorite summoner! Death! I hope you enjoy it!
Death taking profit of new battle conditions
Just when I saw new battle conditions revealed, I thought that a new toolkit for my debuffer boy was delivered. In my opinion, analyzing the opponent's strategy and preferences is the most important part of the game, and even more with death summoner. You have to guess what your opponent will prefer to play attending to mana cap & battle conditions. Creating reverse damage makes this job easy. I know that Life has a legendary summoner with Amplify, but in my opinion, Death can not complain about her chances in these rulesets. There are four main points as the picture will show:
Debuff control plan:
Every time you face one of these three rules, you will know that the source of damage affected will be returned, so these types of creatures a less expected to be played. On the other hand, the ones that are not, have greater chances (everybody hates his/her damage turned back). This assumption eases which kind of creatures to choose. I will explain myself better with the following picture:
So if the battle ruleset is return fire, you've got plenty of silences and demoralizes like Death Elemental or Harklaw. For the other 2 ones, Riftwing has increased its value, decreasing ranged attacks.
Most efficient Epic creature in Chaos Legion edition
Imagine that you ask for a debuffer that helps you with those annoying armors of beefy tanks in front. Imagine that you ask this creature to erase the whole enemy's armor. May this creature support with some ranged damage? And can increase the damage of Windeku's and Muirat's reflections? And now to follow for this imagination game, put a mana value for him. Minimum 3?, Maybe 4? He costs ONLY 2 mana! This creature exists and his name is Weirding Warrior.
With the new rulesets, Amplify is an ability that has experienced an incredible boost. As long as Weirding Warrior is in your team, every reflection of any kind will be buffed with a +1. This factor increases hugely this creature's value. This guy was at 0,6$ regular foil copy before new battle conditions and now is around 1$. Bear market does not exist for him.
Great synergy with Dragon summoners
Related to boosting all previous attributes, Death synergizes with Dragon greatly. Need extra debuff and safe 1 Mana for low mana battles! Take Camilla! Or Maybe Quix for this extra speed and ranged decrease! Wanna weirding buff beefier tank's thorns: take Chwala to the battlefield! There are lots of situations where taking a Dragon for your Death summoner surprises your enemy. It's kinda a second army with little less than half a budget.
Bread n Butter boyz
Finally but not less importantly, you'll love Cursed Windeku and his mate of adventure Weirding Warrior. I can't imagine any better way of spending 8 mana much better than these two bros. In the example, an Opportunity Noxious battle, I use Windeku to cover my back line, while he supports noxious damage with auto heal, Weirding amplifies Windeku damage if needed and destroys Harklaw army. There are multiple situations solved by these two guys - the Bread 'n Butter bros:
And now with the new battle conditions, imagine Windeku reflecting Magic or ranged added to his incredible survivability, and imagine weirding boosting all magic reflection.
These are great times for Death summoner! And you guyz? What do you think about it? Have a nice weekend everyone and thanks for reading!
