Splinterlands Weekly Battle Challenge - Centauri Mage

Hey folks 😁 Graham here.

Welcome to another Splinterlands Weekly Battle Challenge. Here is the original post if you want to enter a battle yourselves.

If you sign up with my Referral Link and purchase the Summoner's Spellbook i will delegate you 10 cards to help you get started. At least one of these will be rare or higher.

This week we have the Earth Splinter monster known as Centauri Mage.

CENTAURI MAGE - The magic of the Centauri people of northern Anumün is so secretive that it is a wonder their Mages make any demonstrations of their powers in the Mount Mox Arena at all. The audiences are always thrilled to see their magic attacks, especially at dusk and sunset, when they create a chillingly beautiful (and deadly) green light show. Not only does this magic rain green fire onto the enemy, but with proper concentration from the Mage, it also refortifies the defenses of the friendly team. Among the Centaurs, those who practice these ancient ways of magic are extremely rare. They spend most of their time close to Kron, protecting him from all the wild creatures outside his Citadel.

Battle Line Up

Summoner: Mylor Crowling

This is currently my favorite summoner as he grants the Thorns ability to all friendly monsters. This can really help to win battles especially in the melee mayhem ruleset.

---

First Place: Goblin Mech
In the front I have my all time favourite tank the Goblin Mech. This is usually the case in most of my battles as he is very reliable.

This is a really great melee attack monster with amazingly high stats.

---

Second Place: Wood Nymph

In second place we have the Wood Nymph as she has the Tank Heal ability which will be essential to keep Goblin Mech alive.

---

Third Place:Centauri Mage

Next up we have the featured monster Centauri Mage. This monster will provide magic attack support with the return fire ability

---

Fourth Place: Sandworm

At the rear we have the mighty Sandworm. This is a monster I use in many of my battles as it has some great stats and the sneak ability to attack the enemies rear.

---

Fith Place: Creeping Ooze
This monster is here to slow down the enemy with the Slow ability.

---

Sixth Place: Furious Chicken

Never forget your Chicken!!

The chicken will act as cannon fodder for any sneak attacks from the enemy.

Always willing to lay down her life for the team :)

Battle Walkthrough

The battle is about to begin and we get our first look at thee enemies line up. With their summoner granting +1 magic hit points they have a formidable band of warriors.

Luckily they have 2 melee attack monsters so my thorns ability will be very advantageous here.

Round 1 begins with my Furious Chicken being killed by Sabre Shark but the thorns ability means it gets a hit back before dying leaving the enemy with only 1 health point!

After the two tanks butt heads my Sandworm monster obliterates the enemies Medusa monster!

The round ends with a few of the enemy monsters getting hits in at my tank but I am not too worried as Wood Nymph will perform the Tank Heal ability at the start of round 2 😉

Round 2 begins with every monster being poisoned due to the Noxious Fumes ruleset. Sadly armour does not protect you from this and my tank the Goblin Mech is dead!! This is a bit worrying!! This also wiped out Creeping Ooze!

Luckily this has a similar effect on my opponents team is his tank the Frozen Soldier and Sabre Shark are both poisoned to death!

So Wood Nymph takes first position but is tragically destroyed immediately by Sea Genie!

It's all down to Centauri Mage and Sandworm now as his found comes to an end. As the mage takes first place Sandworm decimates Captain's Ghost!

In round 3 we see everyone poisoned again but the round really begins when Sandworm destroys Sea Genie ensuring victory.

Let's watch the slaughter..!

Victory is mine!!

I do really like this card and I am sure I will use it again in a similar line up.

Hope you enjoyed my post.
