VENARI WAVESMITH

Banished from Below 3 of 5 - A massive race of rat-like people called venari have lived in the Strite for thousands of years. They are skilled technicians and mechanics who can make advanced devices and tools the likes of which Splinterlanders have never seen. The venari control powerful forms of magic that they have synthesized from the minerals and mana flows of the Strite. Through their complex field of science called smithing, they have been able to create and recreate many types of natural and magical phenomena from any magical element.

OVERVIEW AND STATS

Venari Wavesmith is a rare card from the new Chaos Legion reward collection. In my point of view, it is a great card to have especially for bronze player. Once this card cost around 4-5 USD, but since the change of meta, the price deflated to around 0.20 USD. Which is a great thing for newer player but it is not a good news for people who bought it at the highest price. Nevertheless, it still a very useful card to have because it give a great advantage when it comes to certain rule set.

LEVEL 1 - PROTECT
All friendly Monsters gain +2 Armor
LEVEL 5 - DISPEL
When this monster hit an enemy, it clears all positive status effects on that enemy

RULES AND STRATEGIES

1. The rule set of the match is Explosive Weaponry (All Monsters have the Blast ability). The best strategy are to have fast monsters with Snipe, Sneak or Opportunity. For defense, Shield and Void will come in handy.

2. The match is set at 30 mana which is quite good since I have a few strategy that I could use and a lot more room to breath in term of strategy.

3. I could not use fire splinter and dragon splinter. Left me only 4 splinter, I use a full team of mage or a team of range monster. I went to choose water splinter because I have Djinn Oshannus which is a great tank and I also have Venari Wavesmith which have Protect ability which put me in advantage position for Explosive Weaponary ruleset.

LINE UP

My team at the top

BORTUS

I pick Bortus because it give -1 magic debuff to opponent and cost 3 mana. The reasons for that because it is harder to deal with magic team compare to range team and also I don not have Alric Stormbringer to be my summoner.

DJINN OSHANNUS

At level 1, its have 2 magic damage, 5 speed, 10 HP, cost 8 mana and have Void ability which make it more durable when against magic monster. I pick it as my tanks because it is one of the best tanks for the water team other Baakjira for the Chaos Legion card in my opinion.

MERDAALI GUARDIAN

Merdaali Guardian have 2 speed, 3 HP , cost 3 mana and have Tank heal ability at level one. I choose it because it could help increase Oshannus durability on the battlefield and also help shield Venari from blasts damage.

VENARI WAVESMITH

Venari Wavesmith stats are 1 magic damage, have 2 speed, 3 HP, cost 5 mana and have protect ability. I put it at the 3rd position so that my Magi Of Chaos will be more protected since it deal 2 damages which is vital for victory.

MAGI OF CHAOS

It have 2 magic damage, 2 speed, 5 HP and cost 6 mana. I pick it due to I ran out of powerful mage with decent magic damage and also have respectable HP with 6. I am liking this card since it is a natural card that I could utilize most of the time.

ICE PIXIE

Ice Pixie dealt 1 magic damage, have 3 speed, 1 HP and only cost 2 mana. I put it at fifth position because it have Flying ability and pair up with decent speed it sometimes could be annoying to killed.

ANGELIC MANDARIN

It have 1 range attack, 2 speed, 5 HP and cost onlt 3 mana. I choose it because it have high HP to mana ratio to absorb any sneak attack and at the same time it deal damage. I put it at the back position because range monster does not attack if it in tank position if it does not have Close Range ability.
