In the Splinterlands Modern League (Chaos cards), the Noxious Fumes rule set presents a challenging battlefield condition where all monsters suffer 2 poison damage at the start of each round unless they possess Immunity Cleanse Heal or Resurrect. Surviving this relentless health drain requires strategic team composition, prioritizing monsters that can resist or mitigate poison effects.
This guide focuses on Water & Neutral cards best suited for this rule set, helping you build a resilient lineup for low, mid, and high mana battles. By leveraging key abilities like Immunity to ignore poison, Cleanse to remove poison from allies, Heal to sustain health, and Resurrect for a second chance, you can outlast your opponents and secure victory.
