Lava Spider (Level 1) 
| Splinter | Fire |
|---|---|
| Mana cost | 3 |
| Edition | Chaos Legion |
| Ranged Attack | 1 |
| Speed | 2 |
| Health | 4 |
| Ability | Sniper |
| Rarity | Common |
Before Chaos Legion I used and liked cards with Sniper. At the moment with the free cards I think Sinpers are less useful, so I use them rarely. But Lava Spider is a low cost relatively high health card and it can be useful in some situations.
It is a common chaos legion card therefore everyone has it because it is part of the basic cards. I personally do own a copy of it at level 2, but in the battle I used a gold foil one which I rented out. As you can see in the table below it is a cheap card as a regural foil and not expensive as a gold foil. There are a lot of available copies at the moment.
Here comes the battle:
I was in silver 3 at the time of the battle. In my opinion it was a nice and joyful ruleset.
Rules:
| Battle modifiers | Mana cap | Available splinters |
|---|---|---|
| Unprotected | 26 | Fire |
| Explosive Weaponry | - | Death |
| - | - | Water |
| - | - | Life |
| - | - | Dragon |
So what did I chose to do?
For Summoner: Tarsa it will increase the firendly monsters health by 1 and their melee damage by 1. Lava Spider gains only half of the benefits but still worth to bring a Sniper with Explosive Weaponry ruleset.
Monsters:
- Living Lava best (at least I think) widely available tank for Fire splinter thanks to it's Shield ability, and high health.
- Uraeus it's my own gold foil from daily quest rewards. I chose it for the gold bonus and the Sneak ability.
- Creeping Ooze I chose it to reduce the enemy team's speed thanks to Slow ability.
- Serpentine Spy it's a quite high speed card with nice damage, even nicer with Tarsa. It's Opportunity ability combined with Explosive Weaponry , Tarsa and Creeping Ooze is brutal. If it can act first it can decide the whole battle.
- Lava Spider this is a rented out gold foil I could not use it as a level 3, but the extra dec reward still worth it. I usually bring a Sniper to battles with Explosive Weaponry because backline monsters tend to have lower health.
- Tenyii Striker it cannot be left out of Fire teams in this era high damage, higher health, decent speed and Sneak ability.
Link to the battle
Did my strategy work?
Yes, I won the battle. It was a massacre thanks to Serpentine Spy.
What will I try differently next time?
Given this ruleset I would not change my lineup. I did not think that it will be this easy.
Thanks for the reading, I hope you enjoyed, see you on the battlefield!
