The Share your Battle Dragon Edition challenge is back. This time I'm going to try something different. In previous editions with the dragon deck I have analysed the basic cards of this deck. You know, Djinn Chwala, Twilight Basilisk, Naga Assassin or Drake of Arnak. Nothing original. So it's time for me to try new cards every time I play the Dragon Deck. In this edition I have decided to go for a legendary card like Scale Doctor, a card I didn't know and I have never used before so let's see how this legendary performs in this edition of the Share your Battle challenge. Let's get started.
Vuelve el reto Share your Battle edición Dragon. Para esta ocasión voy a probar algo diferente. En anteriores ediciones con el mazo dragón he analizado las cartas básicas de este mazo. Ya sabes, Djinn Chwala, Twilight Basilisk, Naga Assassin o Drake of Arnak. Nada original. Asi que ha llegado el momento de que cada vez que toque el mazo dragón pruebe cartas nuevas. En esta edición me he decidido por una carta legendaria como Scale Doctor. Carta que no conocía y que nunca antes he utilizado asi que vamos a ver que tal se desenvuelve esta legendaria en esta edición del reto Share your Battle. Comenzamos.
SCALE DOCTOR
THE CARD
This week we introduce and analyse Sclae Doctor. This card is part of the dragon deck and belongs to the Untamed edition. It has one ranged attack point and a summoning cost of five points. It also has two points of speed and seven points of vitality, plus some very interesting abilities that make Scale Doctor a card to consider.
Esta semana os presento y analizamos a Sclae Doctor. Esta carta se encuadra en el mazo dragón y pertenece a la edición Untamed.. Cuenta con un punto de ataque a distancia y tiene un coste de invocación de cinco puntos. Además tiene dos puntos de velocidad y siete puntos de vitalidad además algunas habilidades más que interesantes que hacen de Scale Doctor una carta a tener en cuenta.
As a legendary card, it evolves from level 1 to 4 and will gain a special ability with each upgrade. At the first level it already adds Strengthen, adding vitality to the entire line-up, then it will consecutively add Triage, Rust and, finally, Repair. He thus becomes a card that specialises in improving the health and shield of our line-up and reducing the shield of some of our opponents' cards. All of this, in addition to providing damage from a distance.
Como carta legendaria que es, su evolución va del nivel 1 al 4 e irá aumentando una habilidad especial en cada ascenso. En el primer nivel ya aporta Strengthen sumando vitalidad a toda la alineación. Posteriormente irá sumando, de manera consecutiva, Triage, Rust y, por último, Repair. Se convierte así en una carta especialista en mejorar la salud y escudo de nuestra alineación y en reducir el escudo de alguna de las cartas rivales. Todo ello, además, aportando daño a distancia.
SCALE DOCTOR'S STATS
Scale Doctor's level evolution is, as you can see in the image above, certainly very peculiar. At level 1 to level 4, he will not improve a single point of any skill He will always have one point of attack, two of speed and seven of vitality. The gods of the Splinterlands have decided that providing one skill per turn is more than enough. And it certainly is.
La evolución de niveles de Scale Doctor es, como puedes ver en la imagen superior, ciertamente muy peculiar. Y es que en el paso del nivel 1 al 4 no va a mejorar ni un solo punto de ninguna habilidad. Se va a quedar siempre con un punto de ataque, dos de velocidad y siete de vitalidad. Los Dioses de Splinterlands han decidido que con aportar una habilidad por turno es más que suficiente. Y ciertamente lo es.
In terms of distribution and price we have around 2000 Scale Doctor cards in circulation. And its price, being a legendary card and from a past edition like Untamed, is $11.49. It is not an exorbitant price considering its level and edition. For rental it is very affordable since at level one it costs only 1 dec per day. At level 2 I have been able to buy it for just 8.56 decs.

THE BATTLE
The example battle will pit me against 
member of the Suicide Squad alliance who will be playing a life deck led by the summoner Chanseus The Great at level 2. For my part, a base deck of death at level 1 but with two powerful legendary cards accompanying Cursed Windeku.

| Card | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Drake of Arnak | Base summoner in dragon's deck |
| Diemonshark | I could have gone with Djinn Chwala as a tank but I decided to go with Diemonshark because of its higher attack power. |
| Flying Squid | Another regular card in my water deck with attack from the second position in the line-up. |
| Djinn Oshannus | A battle with a water or water dragon deck just isn't the same without this legendary card. By far my most used card in my Splinterlands journey. |
| Deeplurker | Very high attack and speed for another must-have card in my strategies. |
| Nerissa Tridawan | Her presence will be decisive with his magic attack points to avoid the opponents' shield. She is the main protagonist of my victory. |
| Scale Doctor | The star. |
It was a very close match that was decided by three details. Firstly the extra vitality that Scale Doctor brought Then the amount of damage that Djinn Oshannus and, specifically, Nerissa Tridawn were able to do by dodging the shields of all the opponent's cards. And thirdly, the presence of two ranged cards in the opponent's line-up that stopped doing damage as soon as I removed the opponent's three main cards. It took a lot of work to get rid of these cards, but once I did, the victory fell of its own weight.
Partida muy igualada que se ha decantado por tres detalles. Primero la vitalidad extra que ha aportado Scale Doctor. Después la cantidad de daño que ha podido hacer Djinn Oshannus y, especiamente, Nerissa Tridawn esquivando el escudo de todas las cartas rivales. Y tercero la presencia de dos cartas con ataque a distancia en la alineación rival que dejaron de hacer daño en cuanto eliminé las tres cartas principales del rival. Costó eliminar estas cartas pero, una vez conseguido, la victoria cayó por su propio peso.
CONCLUSIONS
Scale Doctor is a card I was not familiar with until I chose it for analysis and study. I was pleasantly surprised because although it doesn't have much offensive power, its abilities give it an important plus when it comes to planning battles and strategies against all kinds of opponents. I liked it a lot and I give it a final rating of 7 points out of 10. In addition, it has a very low rental cost that allows you to include it in your roster at a ridiculous cost.
Scale Doctor es una carta que no conocía hasta que la he elegido para su análisis y estudio. Me ha sorprendido gratamente ya que aunque no tiene mucho poder ofensivo, sus habilidades le dan un plus importante a la hora de plantear las batallas y las estrategias ante rivales de todo tipo. Me ha gustado mucho y le doy una valoración final de 7 puntos sobre 10. Además, tiene un coste de alquiler ínfimo que te permite incluirla en tu roster a un coste ridículo.
