Through the API request of the test server of Splinterlands there is now the possibility to get the info about the newly added Focus. Furthermore, there is the possibility to see on the testnet already info about the graphics of each focus. This information is from the testnet and can therefore change. But this info should already give a small clue, what we get involved with the Focus in the future, besides the normal Focus with the Splinter colors. With all those shown below Focus u need to Win the Match to Reach the Goal.
The 14 new Focus for Splinterlands in Detail
1. Stealth
It is often best to attack your opponent where they are unprepared and least expect it. Practice using Sneak, Snipe, or Opportunity to take your enemy by surprise and decimate their back row while winning as many arena battles as possible.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 100
Abilities: Sneak, Snipe, Opportunity
2. Defend
When facing melee and ranged attacks, the best defense isn’t necessarily a good offense. Sometimes it involves a sturdy shield, a tough hide, or a trusty armorer. Use Shield or Repair to weather the storm and see you through to victory.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 100
Abilities: Shield, Repair
3. Healing
A battle mage will rarely benefit from a prolonged fight against an opponent who uses spells of healing to sustain their forces. Practice using Tank Heal, Heal, Cleanse, or Triage to outlast your opponent in the arena.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 100
Abilities: Heal, Tank Heal, Cleanse, Triage
4. Flying
The battle mage who occupies the high ground fights at an advantage. The battle mages who own the skies, however, hold the greatest advantage of all. Use units with Flying to rain destruction upon your opponent.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 1000
Abilities: Flying
5. Anti Melee
Securing yourself against defeat lies in your own hands. Any opponent who employs melee attacks, though, provides the opportunity of defeating themself. Use Thorns or Retaliate to turn your opponent's attacks against them.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 1000
Abilities: Thorns, Retaliate
6. Anti Magic
Magic attacks are lethal from anywhere. They can cut through armor and find their mark against even the swiftest of targets. But Void, Phase, and Void Armor will dampen their effectiveness. Use any of these abilities to counter your opponent's magic attacks and win.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 1900
Abilities: Void, Void Armor, Phase
7. Exploits
Anticipate your opponent's strategy and turn it against them. Practice using Oppress, Giant Killer, Deathblow, or Knock Out to multiply your damage and secure as many victories as possible.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 1900
Abilities: Oppress, Giant Killer, Deathblow, Knock Out
8. Disable
Supreme excellence consists of breaking your opponent's resistance with minimal cost. Practice using Piercing or Stun to penetrate their armor and disable their attacks while winning as many arena battles as possible.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 1900
Abilities: Stun, Piercing
9. Impair
Some opponents will attempt to overwhelm you with damage. Use Demoralize, Silence, Headwinds, or Blind to impair their attacks and turn defeat into victory.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 2800
Abilities: Demoralize, Silence, Headwinds, Blind
10. Buffs
Move like the wind. Attack like fire. Be impenetrable like a mountain. Endure like the Elder Tree. Basic tenets taught to aspiring battle mages, but still relevant at the highest leagues. Use Swiftness, Inspire, Protect, or Strengthen to hone your understanding of them.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 2800
Abilities: Strengthen, Swiftness, Inspire, Protect
11. Ailments
To overwhelm one's opponent with tremendous force is not the pinnacle of skill. To subdue them without effort is the pinnacle of skill. Practice using Poison, Affliction, or Weaken to make each win appear effortless.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 2800
Abilities: Poison, Affliction, Weaken
12. Reflect
Sometimes the opportunity to defeat your opponent is provided by the opponent themself. Use Backfire, Return Fire, or Magic Reflect to turn their strength against them.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 3700
Abilities: Backfire, Return Fire, Magic Reflect
13. Fatalities
Practice leveraging spilled blood to strengthen your offense or whittle at your opponent's defense, building an insurmountable momentum. Use Bloodlust, Life Leech, Redemption, or Scavenger to capitalize on the carnage of battle.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 3700
Abilities: Life Leech, Scavenger, Redemption, Bloodlust
14. Nullify
Don't labor against your opponent's strengths. If they are secure at all points, seek to nullify their advantage. Use Shatter, Cripple, or Dispel to level the battlefield and obliterate them.
Type: Ability
Min-Rating: 3700
Abilities: Cripple, Shatter, Dispel
