A life-support strategy with a sliver of life, elegant and efficient | "Splinterlands"
Once again we begin with another installment of the incredible Social Media Challenge that is part of the great dynamics of Splinterlands, this time I bring you an extremely interesting battle which I liked in excess and I consider it is one which is very worthwhile to present this time because my strategy was extremely interesting and I would very much like to show them.
This time I use the sliver of life to stand out in this battle which I enjoyed a lot and I hope you do too, very grateful for the constant support of the community and I hope to continue growing this content week by week as I have been doing throughout the year, with nothing more to say I hope you find my presentation rewarding.
Highlights of this battle.
From what I had been studying about my rival, he was forming strange strategies and his inexperience was noticeable, which he made clear in the battle by placing a monster with a great role of an assassin in the last position. In this battle, you can notice a lot of things, among them the differences between forming coherent strategies that are effective against the opponent.
The sliver of life is one of the most underrated of the game in my opinion but with great potential, if you know how to find and make good use of them, with incredible cards and a tank that had a very important role in this environment and I could carry out.
My Battle
As I mentioned before my opponent was using quite abstract combinations which would be difficult to anticipate and did not have a clear vision of the game, this is when I enter the issue of organizing my formation in such a way that it could be used against all types of offensives made by my opponent ... My choice is clear, the sliver of life with which I could put together a combination based on the ability of my tank as my main card and the support of two other cards.
My attack strength in the battle would be quite reduced thanks to the fact that I was using support cards, therefore I used a summoner to increase my damage and be able to perform a much more powerful attack than it was initially, something I was going to need for this battle so tight in terms of visualization and mana cost.
The battle as such was not even at all since my strategy worked wonderfully using the abilities of my two support cards for my front line tank which was the crucial piece of my strategy since his ability made a defense for the other cards in the line of play, after a fairly easy battle at the end I got the victory with this great formation.
I highly recommend you to try it if you have the chance because it is quite dynamic and there are few of this style in the confrontations that we commonly see in the world of Splinterlands, the general ideology is to encourage a penetrating and powerful attack and we tend to forget about all the amazing skills we can use.
My Battle Rules
Mana:
25
Standard:
This battle rule is the simplest and most basic of the whole game, where all kinds of abilities and cards can be used.
Alignment
General Sloan
Starting the combat and looking for a summoner to lead the troops to victory my choice was more than clear, the incredible and powerful General Sloan coming from the sliver of life and an attack-oriented splinter with an ability that would help me to exert a greater amount of damage with the cards that I would deploy in the offensive which were extremely few and wishing a more aggressive boost in the ranged attack I would use the ability of this great general, which increases by +1 point the damage of the cards with the ranged attack in my formation, which for this type of strategy is extremely excellent.
Shield Bearer
Arriving at the first position and as the main card in the structure of my strategy, ready to receive everything and any kind of blows that are provided, with a great shield and a radiant light from the sky itself this is Shield Bearer a first-class protective monster in my opinion, with its ability "Taunt " which forces all enemy monsters to focus their attack on this one, my tank receives all the damage while protecting the other cards and leaves them a free path to attack, with its incredible 9 health and 4 shield points this is a very difficult card to defeat, plus while this is attacked two cards in the following positions increased their shield and health points, making this a much more difficult element to eliminate. While its defensive characteristics are impressive, the offensive ones are not far behind, being this one of 2 attack points and speed.
Furious Chicken
We arrived at one of the fundamental cards in terms of attack as this monster is indispensable in my offensive line, being the owner of two incredible crossbows and an ability called "" this makes two consecutive attacks with the amount of damage available at the time of the attack, therefore it is like having two attack cards in one. Although its attack capacity of 2 points in the distance and the same in speed are not impressive, thanks to the summoning effect that I added this attacks with 3 points per turn, it would be a total of 6 damage per round, a very damaging thing for my opponent, the only detail is its limited 2 points of life, that's why I protect it in my formation by throwing it to the third position.
Pelacor Arbalest
Get ready for one of the fundamental cards in terms of attack as this monster is indispensable in my offensive line, being the owner of two incredible crossbows and an ability called "Double Strike " this makes two consecutive attacks with the amount of damage available at the time of the attack, so it's like having two attack cards in one. Although its attack capacity at a distance of 2 points and the same speed are not impressive, thanks to the summoning effect that I added this attacks with 3 points per turn, it would be a total of 6 damage per round, a very damaging thing for my opponent, the only detail is its limited 2 points of life, that's why I protect it in my formation by throwing it to the third position.
Scavo Hireling
Starting the support and ready to defend the monster in the first position as one of the supports of this strategy we have this monster with the appearance of a small mole, possessing the ability "Repair " the utility of this is as its name says to repair or restore shield points of the card in first position each time per round so that it can stay in its role of tank as long as possible defending the other cards thanks to its ability and power.
Venari Crystalsmith
Small dog with the appearance of Anubis (Egyptian God) I present the last card in my strategy, with his ability "Tank Heal " this per round at the end of his attack heals a certain amount of life points of the monster that is in the first position. However this is not all because it also has 1 point of ranged attack increased to 2 thanks to the summoner effect, its speed is like most previous monsters being this 2 points, why place it at the end is that due to its 4 points of life this is more resistant than any other.
Strategy
My strategy is quite simple to understand, resistance and attack using support cards that could maintain the life and shield of my tank and in turn, optimize the little attack of the other cards to do damage as amplified as possible to the opponent and eliminate it from the map and the battle.
As you could see this battle was extremely decanted in my favor because this strategy is too effective for this type of battle where you do not know what to expect from the enemy, I invite you to use it if you like when you like.

Ok thank you very much @acidyo for clarifying the doubt, I really did not know exactly how to generate poshtoken through the interactions in my tweets, but now I have it clearer.

great blog!
Thanks my friend
Love your pictures. Great battle. Did you put Scavo Hireling in 4th instead of 3rd to protect Pelacor Arbalest and act as a buffer against enemy Sneak monsters if Venari Crystalsmith was taken out by one?
Exactly right, the pelacor was the fundamental piece thanks to its double attack, for that reason I did not want to risk it so much in the battle in case my tank was defeated, because thanks to its ability all the attacks went straight to it and the rest of my free cards, but if my tank were to die and the opponent had a sneak attack, the pelacor would still be protected.
Quite interesting
Thank you very much, I hope the community can see this excellent strategy in very low leagues and that it helps them to win some games.
