Hello everyone and welcome again!
Pelacor Arbalest is my favorite card of the Chaos Legion edition because of its design, I love it and besides that it is a real danger when you have it against you and you are not prepared to face it, it has an incredible damage and also a summoner made to boost it, and many more qualities that make it a wonder for all splinter life teams, let's talk about it in this post and see its performance in battle, so let's begin.

An as the lore says:
Pelacor Arbalests are armed with powerful crossbows enchanted to fire bolts at extremely long distances. They are trained to wield a crossbow in each hand and can fire both simultaneously with deadly accuracy. Compounded with the Pelacor's excellent eyesight and nimble dexterity, these sharpshooters are extremely useful as snipers on the battlefield.
The Silver Shield Knight backpedaled, parrying blow after blow as the two Venari snarled and swung their swords at him in a savage and ruthless onslaught. He stumbled. Another blow sent him reeling. He fell onto his back.
The Venari leaped upon him, swords raised. He struggled to lift his own sword, but he couldn't fight them both. He was going to die.
The feathered shaft of a bolt slammed into center of each Venaris' chest simultaneously. The pair crumpled in a heap, unseeing eyes staring at the sky.
The Silver Shield Knight squinted into the sun. Above him, a Pelacor Arbalest hovered, his large white wings beating at the air. In each hand, he held an empty crossbow, still aimed at the fallen Venari.
How to use Pelacor Arbalest?
Pelacor Arbalest has Ranged attack so you can not use it as a tank and it does not have stats for that, in Bronze and Silver it is best to play it in the penultimate position to protect it from the enemy Sneak, because it does not have much life. From Gold rank it learns Fly which gives it an advantage against the cards with Melee and Ranged that are almost all those with Sneak so it can be played in last position to take advantage of that Fly making the opponents fail, in any case the idea with this card is to attack the opponent with everything because it has a lot of damage, from level 1 can do 6 points of damage per turn if combined with General Sloan and at maximum level can do 8 points of damage with this summoner.
And for last, my battle!
Round 1.
Equal Opportunity + Taking Sides. 38 Mana cap.
Shieldbearer as a tank for the Taunt, so you cancel the first ruleset for the enemy and make all cards attack your tank, which has a lot of armor and a lot of life.
Chaos Knight as a secondary tank for when Shieldbearer drops and takes over the battle.
Time Mage slows down opponents, and that is essential especially in the first round and also has magic damage and that gives advantage against the opponent's tank.
Portal Spinner with its Scattershot and increased damage will be a danger to any card and also ignores the enemy taunt, from round 1 you can go randomly damaging the opponent.
Pelacor Arbalest in penultimate position, to protect it from a possible Sneak and take advantage of its increased double damage.
Lone Boatman at the end for that point of armor, if there was a card with Sneak you were assured at least one more turn of canceled damage thanks to the armor.
Round 2.
Thanks to the random damage of Portal Spinner my team started to reduce the biggest threat to my Pelacor Arbalest, since both Shieldbearer were about to fall, the extra speed of my Time Mage was going to be essential here. Thanks precisely to that speed my Pelacor Arbalest finished in a single turn with his two most dangerous cards, the enemy Pelacor itself and also with the Cave Slug.
Round 3.
2 card advantage thanks to my Pelacor Arbalest started to give me the advantage in the battle. In this turn my Pelacor would take care of sweeping away what was left of the opponent, giving me the victory:
What was my experience with this card?
This as I said, is my favorite card of the edition along with Time Mage, I think both combine very well and the tremendous damage that this card has is incredible for your battles, General Sloan works very well against Obsidian despite not being anti magic or have many cards with Void and that's thanks to this card, it only needs a turn of well-delivered blows to put you in front of the game and has an excellent price right now, so I think it is an option that can not be missed.
Thank you very much for reading my post, I hope to see you in the next one, see you soon!
