Hello readers!

Everyone in Crypto world is currently excited and enjoying because the Bitcoin has broken its $38,000 resistance and currently being traded for $43,870 with +15.4% change in last seven days. Ethereum is experiencing the pump even more with +19.9% change in last seven days and currently being traded for $3,132. As usual, the alts are also catching up the uptrend with quick speed and hive is also not behind As it also crossed from below $1 per unit and currently being traded for $1.24.

The splinterlands token market however is yet to catch the trend as I am not seeing any Major fluctuations. The Main in-game token DEC is currently being sold for $0.00332 per unit with a +2.11% change in last 24 hours while SPS aka splintershards Is being traded for $0.1279 per unit with a +0.41% change in last 24 hours. The vouchers also lost its 1.5$ value And currently placed at only $1.232 But I am hopeful that we may see a growth soon in Splinterlands tokens as well, Not a financial advice thou😅

Now, talking about Splinterlands, the chaos fever is literally on fire 🔥 and Splinterlands has already sold over 7.24 million chaos packs And almost near to sell half of the total chaos packs which is 15 million. Most of us didn’t expect this much amount to be sold in such a little time but team Splinterlands has made it possible with their dedication, commitment and relentless effort On this project. And one more thing that I thought in the beginning is that the card market will get flooded with cheap high-level cards but as you look now, many of them chaos cards don’t even have one Max card listed in market which proves that people are holding strong.

I have already made a handful of posts dedicated to these new chaos cards Grouping by similar abilities and in this post, I will showcase another ability giant killer and my top three chaos cards with giant killer ability in this post.

‘Giant Killer’

Monsters with giant killer ability does double damage against targets that cost 10 or more Mana.

The giant killer ability got introduced with this new chaos edition and we got several monsters with this ability. Monsters with Giant killer ability fits perfectly in 99 mana limit ruleset matches and you may already see them being used in that particular ruleset. But, you may also use them above 30 mana limit matches or even some medium mana limit ones if you are expecting your opponent to use monsters that cost over 10 mana. Giant killer monsters have already proven their worth against Magnor, Corneleous or Kron so I would suggest you to use these giant killers against them and all other monsters with 10 or more mana cost.

LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR

The first monster that I will be picking today is Legionnaire Alvar. They are the ruthless warriors of Chaos Legion elite fighting force. They dont mercy the prisoners of war unless they wish to serve. Think twice before going against them as their magic proof armour is almost impossible to break while their giant killer ability can beat down even the celestials of splinterlands.

This monster Is a legendary type card that belongs to the neutral unit. it costs nine Mana to use in the battlefield and its attack type is Melee. let us now take a look at its overall stats and abilities throughout its levels.

Bronze

  • At level 1, this monster possesses 2 Melee attack at two speed with eight armour and six health along with the void armour ability. because of this armour, magic attack wont hit directly to its health and instead will attack the armour first.

Silver

  • At level 2, this monster gets 3 melee attack at two speed with eight armour and six health and also gets another ability giant killer. because of the giant killer ability, it can now deal 2X damage against targets that costs 10 or more mana.

Gold

  • At level 3, this card gets 3 melee attack at two speed with nine armour and six health and also gets another ability demoralize. because of the demoralize ability, all the enemy M3elee monsters will Get -1 Melee attack.

Diamond/Champ

  • At level 4, this card gets 3 melee attack at two speed with nine armour and seven health and also gets another ability deathblow. monsters with death blow ability does 2X damage if their target is the only monster left on the enemy team.

Market Stat:

LEGIONNAIRE ALVAR is currently being sold in the Splinterlands card market starting from $6.95 per BCX and will cost you about 2,076.238 DEC onwards.

While the void shield + giant killer ability makes him super useful in Large Mana limit matches, The demoralize helps you further by reducing the Melee attack of all enemy monsters. On top of that, the deathblow ability will sometime helps you by attacking the last monster of opponent with 2x danage and thus can be very useful against llama combos Or matches with fewer monsters.

DESERT DRAGON

The second monster that I’ll be showcasing today is desert Dragon. This mighty creatures are ancient and savage. They are most commonly found in the sandy plains of east of Jade Thickett. Do they can’t fly well due to their torn wings but they can move very fast and attack suddenly with their sharp teeth and horns and also with their nails. Once they kill down their first target, they quickly target the next without giving any time to react.

Desert dragon is a legendary type card that belongs to the Dragon unit. it costs seven Mana to use in battlefield and its attack type is Melee. let us not take a further look into it below.

Bronze

  • At level 1, this card possesses four Melee attack at two speed with three armour and six health along with trample ability. when a monster with trample hits and kills its target, it will perform another attack on the next monster on the enemy team.

Silver

  • At level 2, this card gets five Melee attack at two speed with three armour and six health and also gets the piercing ability. If the attack of a piercing ability monster excess of the target’s armour, the reminder will damage the target’s health.

Gold

  • At level 3, this card gets 5 melee attack at two speed with three armour and seven health and also gets another ability retaliate. monsters with retaliate ability when attacked by a melee monster has a chance of attacking their attacker back.

Diamond/Champ

  • At level 4, this card possesses 6 Melee attack at two speed with three armour and seven health and also gets another ability giant killer.

Market Stat:

DESERT DRAGON is currently being sold in the Splinterlands card market starting from $6.91 per BCX and will cost you about 2,064.289 DEC onwards.

The piercing ability will help active its trample ability more often because it will pierce down the armour and also affect the health and killing even a shielded beast can possible with one blow. The retaliate ability will further boost this up. the giant killer ability on top of that will be very beneficial in certain matches where the opponent will most probably use one or two monsters which will be equal or more than ten mana cost. The only thing that it’s lacking is speed but if you can protect this monster well, this can beat down several high stat monsters with it’s high attack and ability combos.

GRUM FLAMEBLADE

As you already have guest from the thumbnail, the last monster that I will showcase you today is none other than Grum Flameblade. This mighty beast got airdropped recently and already making hype in the battlefield due to his exceptionally high stat and ability combos. Mark my words as this monster will become more and more precious over time. So better acquire this first ever non brawl card with bloodlust ability before it goes to moon.

Grum Is a legendary type card that belongs to the fire unit. it costs a whooping 11 Mana to use in battlefield and its attack type is Melee. now take a deep dive and find more about this card below.

Bronze

  • At level 1, this card possesses four Melee attack at one speed with five armor and 10 health Along with two abilities - bloodlust and void armour. Even in initial level, it’s high shield plus health combo will help him stay alive for a long time, even against magic monsters while it’s bloodlust ability will increase its stats each time it kills down an enemy monster.

Silver

  • At Level 2, this card possesses four melee attack at one speed with five armour and 12 health and also gets another ability Void. because of the Void ability, this monster becomes more immune against magic attacks. so, you can use this monster as your front defence without a second thought against magic monsters.

Gold

  • At level 3, this monster gets four Millie attack at one speed with five armour and 14 health and also gets another ability giant killer. now this monster becomes more fierce against Those High mana cost Giants and will do 2X damage to the monsters that costs 10 or more Mana.

Diamond/Champ

  • At level 4, This monster gets five Melee attack at one speed with five armour and 15 health while having all those for abilities that I mentioned above.

Market Stat:

Grum is currently being sold in the Splinterlands card market starting from $16.15 per BCX and will cost you about 4,824.640 DEC onwards.

Though this monster only has one speed even in its max level, if you can use this monster in a right way and activate its bloodlust ability multiple times, this monster will become unbeatable in battles. On the other hand, thou this monster costs more than teen mana, even enemy monsters with giant killer ability will find hard to kill him down because of its high armour plus health combo. not to mention that the void armour + void combo will make him a solid wall against those magic monsters And hence can be used against them as a strong defence.

If your prediction are right and the price drops, how much do you think common gf will be costing at it lowest and how much do you think the chaos legion cards will sell for after the next edition is released?

!1UP100

The best approach would be seeing how those old untamaed or beta card prices got increased over time. While the lowest ever unamed cards now selling for 0.25-0.37$, the lowest chaos cards are only 0.03-0.04$ per BCX. Same applied for gold foil too. SL returns a fortune to the long term holders and I am very bulish on this.
Thanks for visiting by :)

I'm also bullish, but I don't think we're going to see the same price increase simply because there are way more Chaos Legion cards released right now than there have ever been Untamed cards released and we're not even halfway there yet. So there will be less scarcity, so lower prices, although they will increase once Chaos Legion is sold out.
But if you wait long enough, buy the right cards and if only enough new players come into Splinterlands, anything is possible!

Great collection! I think that this ability is really going to be a big counter against many great cards and therefore will be amazing to use.

Cheers,

Interesting write up on it, the legendary monsters will change things up, but the Chaos Knight from Light gets the ability in silver since it is a common card and level 5, I think that is a useful thing as well.

Grum is really nice for being tanky and hits hard, but it's kinda slow....so it is still not overpowered. Like the way how SPL team balance the cards. Hope they can keep up the good work!

Excellent post my friend! I am very bullyish on every single asset that I get from Splinterlands! One question... Where do you get those spectacular images from the characters from? Ty very much in advance!

These are all great cards. I am working on getting all of mine to max level ASAP. I got Grum Flameblade there already. I saw the writing on the wall and figured that this card would be much more expensive in the future. I wish I could've afford more packs so I would've gotten more in the airdrop, but I did get two, which is better than a lot of people. Now when I get that card in a pack, I am hanging onto it.

I've learned some lessons over the years. One is that I'm better off not cominbing all of my cards all the time. I've got some at max and higher levels that are good to rent out or play, but then I'm going to keep a lot of single cards on hand in case I want to sell some of them in the future. When I do feel like selling cards, I have a tough time because they're all combined. The only way to sell them quickly when they're combined is to undercut the per BCX price considerably.
