Splinterlands Weekly Challenge! DRAGONS!

[from-mars]

Hey guys.. Mingalar par မင်္ဂလာပါ..
This week weekly challenge is Dragon splinter.
Battle mana cap was 56 with Keep your distance* rule, which meant melee units were not allowed. Only Dragon and Life splinters are available.
As there was not much choice, I believed my opponent would choose Life splinter. Life range units are relatively slow that I decided to use Dragon with flying ability boost hoping to avoid some attacks.
56 mana is very high and you could use all high mana cost cards, but limited by the rule that we both have to place weak range or magic cards.

CHALLENGE RULES

* THEME: DRAGON * Edition: ANY * Rarity: ANY * Element: DRAGON+ANY(LIFE) * ATTACK: ANY * ABILITIES: ANY ...........................................

Summoner : BRIGHTON BLOOM

---

Brighton Bloom gives flying ability to all friendly monsters. *Flying* ability make it difficult get hit. A level 2 monster allow to have some high level cards in the line up.

First Position : PELACOR CONJURER

---

Pelacor Conjurer a fast flying card with no attack. At level 3, you'd get 4 speed and 5 health card with 2 mana.

Second Position : DJINN RENOVA

---

Djinn Renova is an epic card that boost 1 health point to each units in the line up. At the cost of 7, you get 2 magic attack, 6 health point and 2 speed.

Third Position : GARGOYA DEVIL

---

This flying card has closed range ability as a range unit, it can attack even at the first place.

Forth Position : VENARI CRYSTALSMITH

---

A healing card would make some difference if the flying tank can avoid some attacks.

Fifth Position : TIME MAGE

---

A much needed one to slow down enemies. At least it will cancel out if enemy use one.

Sixth(Last) Position : Pelacor Arbalest

---

Main attacking card. Although it didn't have range attack boost, it should be fine.

Alright, let's get started!

_{As non-melee cards usually have low health, both team lost the cards easily. Pelacor Conjurere did the job and manage to avoid 2 attacks.A combination of 6 hit points. As a result, my team lost one card compare to 2 on the other side.}

_{By loosing 2 cards and another range card came to the 1st place meant, 6 attacks were lost on the enemy side, while my team still have full attack.}

_{Another 2 card lost on the enemy side.}

_{Djinn Renova was recovered as it was healed by the healer. This is the last round and it was fast because my team didn't loose any attack.}

Did my strategy work?

The Life splinter was only choice whether you use pure Life splinter or in combination with Dragon. I can imagine the my opponent would use Life summoner with range attack boost. So I decided to use Dragon with flying boost hoping to avoid some attacks. It worked and Pelacor Conjurer did avoid 2 attacks as it was fast and now flying. The avoidance of flying ability is calculated by chance, so if it is fast and flying, you have higher chance of avoiding attacks, but you never know.

Do I like DRAGON?

Dragon is a special splinter that can be used with any other splinter. Every splinter has own strength and weakness. Dragon splinter is no exception. You just have to figure out what splinter your enemy would use and plan your team.
