Lore
In time immemorial, the realm was beset by innumerable calamities: a thick cloud of poison that choked the air, the swelling of the sun, drowning floods, terrible storms, earthquakes that shook the land and brought great mountains to ruin, and the fading of ley lines.
Subsequently, the boundaries between this realm and other realms and planes grew frail and, eventually, broke down. Creatures never before seen spilled forth, and great tides of elemental mana filled the ether.

Card Stats

Card Effects
![]() Resurrect |
Resurrect is a really good combo with someone who has a lot of armor since reborned units gain their max armor.
![]() Reflection Shield |
Reflection Shield is a good counter for a lot of rule sets such as Counterspell and Explosive Weaponry. The ability not only negates the damage but also makes him playable in those rule sets where it would be a big disadvantage otherwise.
![]() Tank Heal |
Since he is from Dragon Splinter, it's like having a neutral unit with Tank Heal which allows you to have this support ability in Splinters where it lacks that ability such as Fire and Death Splinter.

Strengths & Weaknesses
Oshuur Constantia's damage and abilities are the clear strength. It gives you a lot of flexibility while dishing damage while supporting your team as well. |
There's two weakness about him though, his mana cost and his rarity. Legendary monsters are bad to focus on in Splinterlands due to some rule sets that makes them unusable. The mana cost is also the same reason not to mention using him in battles with low mana cap are bad and the quantity versus quality is preferred. |

When To Use
![]() Explosive Weaponry |
Reflection Shield reduces the damage to 0. Have one unit with Taunt ability to redirect all the damage to it and place that unit in either the front or back while this unit goes next to it to disable any Blast damage.
![]() Armored Up |
As I mentioned, resurrected units are resurrected with max armor, including the ones it gain from other units, summoners and rule set. So, the more armor you have, the more value the Resurrect has.
![]() Wands Out |
Oshuur Constantia is a unit with magic attack and Tank Heal. This combination is realy strong in Wands Out rule set because your enemy might not have them giving you the advantage on that battle.

When Not To Use
![]() Healed Out |
Since Tank Heal is one of this unit's selling points, no heal means a big hit on Oshuur Constantia's value.
![]() Tis But Scratches |
This has something to do with the heal amount as well. Reducing the max health of the units reduces the heal as well.
![]() Earthquake |
The damage from the Earthquake cannot be reduced by Oshuur Constantia's Reflection Shield. His Tank Heal also won't heal himself unless he's in the front and Oshuur Constantia is no tank and has no reason to be in the front.

This is a very easy battle. Any damage that Chain Golem received is healed by Oshuur Constantia making him basically unkillable for this battle.

Final Thoughts
Oshuur Constantia is a really strong unit and this is reflected by his buying and renting cost. The value he gives per combat is really high and the flexibility for being a dragon summoner is also huge.
Even after all these praises, no unit in Splinterlands is perfect (except for The Kraken but that is my own bias). This unit still has strengths and weaknesses but if you tread carefully, this wouldn't matter.
All in all, Oshuur Constantia is a good unit to add to your team if you have the budget for it. He can be a game changer depending on which rule set you will play him at and that is reason enough to put him on your radar.
