Marty Ability
So, what is martyr ability ?
Martyr ability with the above icon is an ability that cause the monsters who have marty give +1 to all stats on the monster on the adjacent. This could help 2 team mates to become stronger if we put them beside those monsters.
Opportunity is the ruleset where martyr can effectively works cause enemies will aim the weaker monsters. Meanwhile, on the normal battle, martyr is hardly can help 2 monsters cause they are often attacked when located on the very front or very last. Except when there is monsters with the snipe or opportunity ability.
The fact that we have to depend on enemies monsters with those ability has causing the martyr is not very often seen on the battlefield. But, what if I told you we can still get 2 martyr benefit without depending on the snipe and opportunity from the enemies ?
It's the camouflage ability
The ability to hide a monsters can be helpfull to makes the monster with the martyr is looks like placed on the very last position. So, they can be easilty eliminated by the sneak monsters, yeah we still depend on enemies ability, but sneaks are surely comes more often than the snipe and opportunity (at least where I play right now). The martyr then will activated to boost the monster in front of it and those camouflaged monster
Battle Example
You can watch the battle on this link https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_c80c0fc240b4615fa8973bef3d839bf0
I will also give the preview about it on this section.
Ruleset :
There is neutral only ruleset, with the gladiators and heavy hitters ruleset. Only light splinters that are banned and there is 21 mana cap which is quite low.
Here is the formation of both team. Since there is shades of grey, only neutral element monsters are playable, which cause there is much less option available, that's why I'm sure uraeus will comes out from enemies and try to use it for the martyr purpose.
How the Battle Goes
At the end of 1st round, no one yet eliminated, but my martyr monster will die soon with the poison.
At the 2nd round, my enemy lose 2 monsters, with my team lost only the martyr and give a great support for uraeus and doctor blight.
Finally, It's a great win for my team, thanks for the effective martyr there !
Conclussion
Martyr ability is very usefull to makes ally monster become stronger, but the challenge is how to get them eliminated soon and give most impact by having 2 monster affected by the martyr effect. Camouflage monster can taking advantage by put them on the last position and make the martyr monsters getting hit by sneaker monster instead. Get the benefit of martyr for the monster in front of it and for the camouflaged monster as well.
