Splinterlands Guide: Lost Legendaries Ruleset!

This Splinterlands Guide deals with Lost Legendaries Ruleset. This is very easy ruleset to explain, you can use any card in your deck except Legendary. As a result, the only choice are Epic, Rare and Common monsters. Which splinter offer the best cards from these rariteis? Check it out below.

Lost Legendaries Ruleset - how does it work?

Legendary Monsters may not be used in battles. This rule is as simple as this. How to overcome your opponents? Mainly you need to use splinter that have the best common, rare and epic cards. You may also consider to take your favorite splinter and use line up that works the best for you. I love to play Water Splinter from Chaos Legion edition. My the best tank is Keyla Frendul. This summoner gives +1 Speed and Armor. It has the best win rate in all leagues from Bronze to Champion.

Cards that I like to use in Lost Legendaries Ruleset

Diemonshark

Strenght: This is my the best tank in the Water Splinter. It has huge amount of HP and Armor. In addition, Diemonsharkhas three abilities:

• Trample - When a Monster with Trample hits and kills its target, it will perform another attack on the next Monster on the enemy Team,
• Enrage - Has increased Melee attack and Speed when damaged by x1.5, and
• Retaliate - When hit with a Melee attack, Monsters with Retaliate have a 50 % chance of attacking their attacker. Most of the tank has melee attack, so he can attack double/triple in one round if Trample and Retaliate will be activated. As a result, Diemonshark can kill couple monsters.

Weakness: Diemonshark can be easily damaged by magic. You can avoid that, when you use Wave Brood with Taunt ability.

Wave Brood

Strenght: This card has many protective abilities against magic and range attacks. In addition huge amount of HP. As a result can survive many attacks. This is the best card to pair with Diemonshark. If you place these two cards together then, you don't need to worry about any type of attacks. Wave Brood abilities are presented below:

• Taunt - All enemy Monsters target this Monster except Scattershot (if they are able to)
• Close Range - Can perform ranged attacks from the first position.
• Void - Reduced damage from Magic attacks. Attack damage gets halved (rounded up), except attack 1 which deals 0 damage.
• Return Fire - When hit with a Ranged attack, Monsters with Return Fire will return reduced damage back to their attacker. Damage returned is equal to damage of attacker divided by 2, rounded up.

Weakness: This card needs lots of support cards with Triage to survive longer. If you don't have Triage monsters, then this card can be easily killed.

Angelic Mandarin

Strenght: This is the best support card from Water Splinter. It has two powerful abilities that can help your Wave Brood:

• Traige - Heals the friendly back-line Monster that has taken the most damage. Heal is max health divided by 3, rounded down. Minimum is 2.
• Silence - Reduces the Magic Attack by 1 of all enemy Monsters.

Weakness: I don't see any weakness of these card. For 3 mana cost It has asome abilities, huge amount of health point and 2 range attack at max level.

Tips and Tricks

• In this Ruleset you can choose the best team you have.
• In Lost Legendaries Ruleset choose Summoners at higher level. As a result you can play monsters at higher level too.
• Your opponent also faces the same obstacles and challenges as you do.
• If some legendaries are good as a tank, in this case you and your opponent cannot use them.

Battle explained - round 1

I am going to use my Keyla Frendul as a Summoner for this battle. In addition three of my the best monster needs to be in my deck. This is 58 mana cost battle, so I can use high mana monster to fill rest of my team. I used Flying Squid with Reach ability to make melee attacks from second row. In adition, he has Blind ability that increase chance to dodge attacks. Two other monsters are magic attackers to make different types of attacks. My the best trio are melee and rangers.

Round 2

As you can see my opponent has strong magic monster. As a result my Wave Brood can takes these attacks. After first round he still have 12 HP. This means Wave Brood can survive about 6 rounds of damage. Rest of my team still have full HP because no one can attack them. Diemonshark can take damage but only from opponent tank. Usually tank has melee damage, so first need to destroy armor to make direct damage to HP. In round 2 my opponent tank is defeated. He still have two support tank to use.

Round 3

Another tank of my opponent side is dead. I still have Wave Brood with 6 HP and my tank with full 10 HP and 5 Armor. As long as my Wave Brood is alive, I don't need to worry about my tank Diemonshark. In addition, Angelic Mandarin use Traige each round and heals my back line monster.

Round 4

It should be easy now. My opponent don't have any strong tank on the battlefield. As you can see my trio monsters (Diemonshark, Wave Brood and Angelic Mandarin) work perfectly. Mainly due to abilities that work very good together.

Final round 5

One more monster left on the battlefield. Thank you for the nice match. Last two hits and the battle is over. My opponent used strong summoner that buffs magic. My tank can be easily defeted by magic but Wave Brood saved his life. If I would use different card from "trio", I would probably loose this match.
