Hi guys. This is another SPL weekly battle challenge, and this time it's for one of my favorite neutral monsters in the game, MAGI OF CHAOS.
First, we have to know the story of MAGI OF CHAOS, and according to the splinterlands lore; The Magi of the Chaosium are the heralds of the Legion itself. For hundreds of years, they met and studied in secret, gathering ancient artifacts and scraps of forbidden knowledge, much that was once thought lost. As the convergence grew close they plied the void for its treasures and listened furtively to the voices in the dark to make way for the coming of the Lord of Chaos. Once the way was opened and doom poured from the sky they rose from their hidden places to claim the promise of power from their dark masters.
The only ability of MAGI OF CHAOS is OPPRESS 
, which is unlocked at level 5.
 | MANA | 6 |
 | ARMOR | 0 |
 | HEALTH | 5 |
 | SPEED | 2 |
 | DAMAGE | 2 |
CARD PRICE
This is an EPIC neutral card from the CHAOS LEGION deck that gives 100 CP per bcx in regular foil and 2500 CP in gold foil.
At the time of writing, a level 1 regular foil of this card costs $1.699, and upgrading to level 2 requires 4 bcx, which costs $6.796.
The gold foil version costs $9.801 per bcx and will level 2 automatically.
Because this card is not cheap, it can be played without owning it by renting it, and a level 1 regular foil version would cost 5.043 DEC/Day, while the gold foil version would cost 15.900 DEC/Day.
WEAKNESS AND STRENGTHS
STRENGTHS, because of his above-average stats, this card is one of the best in the lower league; he can be the main damage dealer while also tanking some damage.
WEAKNESS, for a 6 mana cost, this monster lacks the ability to shine in higher leagues; instead, this monster excels in certain rule sets and lower leagues.
RULESET
The match has a mana cap of 26 and two rulesets: TARGET PRACTICE (
) and REVERSE SPEED (
). My strategy was to choose two tanks that could handle both frontline damage and SNIPE damage from range and magic monsters, while my damage would be a double SNEAK combo that would buy time for my MAGI OF CHAOS to finish off the enemy's magic and range monsters.
SUMMONER
TYRUS PALADIUM is the best summoner for MAGI OF CHAOS because MAGI OF CHAOS has no physical damage protection and TYRUS PALADIUM +1 armor buff will increase MAGI OF CHAOS defense.
TANKS
GARGOYA LION is the primary tank in my lineup; his FLYING ability causes physical damage to miss while also countering the enemy's magic damage dealer.
PELACOR CONJURER is the secondary tank in my lineup; because he has no damage, he will tank the range and magic damage from the enemy monsters that will protect MAGI OF CHAOS.
SNEAK COMBO
URAEUS is one of my SNEAK monsters combo; this monster will be the first to deal damage, removing the enemy's armor and dealing damage.
STITCH LEECH is the finisher of my SNEAK combo, removing the enemy backline monsters while my URAEUS deals the initial damage.
UTILITY MONSTERS
BABY UNICORN is my lone utility monster in my lineup; he will increase all of my monsters' HP, allowing them to live longer and give my MAGI OF CHAOS more time to eliminate the enemies.
The main character in this lineup will be MAGI OF CHAOS, who will be the lone magic damage dealer and will gradually finish off the enemy range and magic damage dealer monsters.
A match between a classic old card vs a new card. TYRUS PALLADIUM vs TARSA, offense vs defense.
At the starting round, we traded damage and my monster's armors were destroyed while I was able to deal damage with the enemy HP monsters directly.
We traded kills; I lost my main tank GARGOYA LION, while he lost his main damage dealer SNEAK.
The game turned in the third round when I eliminated one of his damage dealers while keeping all of my monsters. I now have an HP and monsters advantage over my opponent.
I was able to finish off two of his monsters and his main tank in the fourth round, and without his tank, I was able to easily finish off his last remaining monster and win the game.
AFTERTHOUGHTS
I like using MAGI OF CHAOS because this monster can easily fit into any lineup, making him versatile. However, because he lacked any useful abilities, his main purpose was to deal magic damage.
I will not change anything in my lineup because I won the game easily and these are the only monsters in my deck, but if I had more options, I would probably replace BABY UNICORN with a damage-dealing monster.
