Hello Friends,
Source
Splinterlands has been on the increasing curve with regards to improvements with regards to strategies, monsters and even the graphics and those monsters i mean the cards we have now in rebellion edition are with multiple abilities and those summoners provide more than 2 or 3 abilities to the monsters they call.
It's definitely on the improving side and it's all good for the players as we see those better things.
The rewards are good with glint token introduction and those reward cards are nice with new abilities and different types of cards.
Having said about new rewards cards, there are many which are with some new ability which are like must have cards.
I feel there is one card which is definitely must have and that is the arachne weaver monster from death splinter which is with a new ability called as corrupted healing.
Yes, it is a new ability i mean an ability we already have i.e. healing like tank healing, triage, but this new ability of corrupted healing is bit different to those we have.
Different in the sense, it heals not the monster, but monsters, yes, it heals monsters randomly and that too in a corrupted way, sometimes it might just heal 2 monsters and sometimes it might heal all the monsters including itself!!
Wow, this is something which will help the monsters stay alive for longer as there is healing on each of those and if we can have a good front monster with tank healing or healing itself, then i think we can win most of the battles.
So, this monster is a must have based on this new ability it has and as for as i know, this is the only monster with that ability, may be in future, we might get some more monsters with this ability, especially in the new edition they are talking about.
Look at the stats for this, it is with magic attack with 2 attack from level 1 itself but health is less and from level 3, it will have scavenger ability which will help it gain health and it will get one more ability of poison when it is in level 6.
The ability of corrupted healing is from level 1 itself and that is a good thing for the battlers who just have a level 1 monster like me.
So. here i will use this monster in a battle and share it to show how it performs.
Battle and Lineup:
https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_968a73d339a2a86f4447a9b1ca497c10?ref=coolmonsters
The battle i am sharing is with 3 different rules like stampede, corrosive action and fury as we can see from above screenshot and the 38 mana cap was there with fire, death and dragon as the splinters active for the battle.
As you can see in the screenshot, even my opponent used this monster, so, it is already a popular one and below is the lineup i used.
Lineup:
Cursed windeku:
As i was explaining above, a good healing monster at the front will set this battle as there is that corrupted healing from arachne weaver and so, i justify using this monster in the front position as it is with healing ability and is also with slow ability to reduce the speed of the monsters used by other person.
Riftwing:
There are those monsters which are with other ability such as weapon training and skok duskblight is particularly useful and this monster riftwing which is a no attack monster, but it will benefit by using skok duskblight besides it and we can make use of the abilities the riftwing has, such as headwind, scavenger, return attack and it is also a flying monster.
Skok duskblight:
Besides the weapon training, it provides 2 magic attack and it does have the resurrect ability i think from level 3, but all i have is a level 1, so, not thinking of resurrect with this.
Will-o-wisp:
The other no attack monster, but will be getting magic attack from skok duskblight is this will-o-wisp which is like riftwing, has good abilities and one of those is silence to reduce the magic attack on the other side.
It is also a flying monster and is with weaken ability to reduce health of all the monsters used by opponent.
Arachne weaver:
I think nothing more explanation is required on this monster as i told about it already, this is a must have to be among the competition.
Silent sha-vi:
Last one used by me is the silent sha-vi which was used for it's sneak attack and it was helpful in removing the opponent's arachne weaver before it could get into action.
Battle:
So, that is all about the lineup and arachne weaver and if you would like to know about the battle, then the link is readily available as shared above and i am sure you will agree with me on what i wrote about the arachne weaver monster and it's usefulness.
Thanks, have a nice time.
