The idea for this week's Splinterlands Social Media Challenge is to talk about the new abilities and strategies that will be added to Splinterlands with the arrival of the new Conclave Arcana collection. We will present some of the new abilities that will be added to the web3 card game, Splinterlands, and along with them talk a little about which strategies can be used with these new abilities, and cards that can end up making a good combo with them.
You - Splinterlands player - who are curious to know about the new abilities and the possible combinations, come find out all about it now!
I'll be much appreaciated if you Upvote, Reblogs or give any Tips ( PIZZA 🍕, PGM 🎮, LOLZ 😆, ALIVE ❤️, etc ). Thanks and have good reading! 🍀
[ENGLISH VERSION]
New Abilities - Arcane Conclave
The new Arcane Conclave set will bring nine new revolutionary abilities to the game with never-before-seen effects. Two of them caught our attention for their combo potential, the first is Painforge used with the epic cards from the Rebellion Reward set. The second are the bloodline abilities that are related to the new classification of cards in Archons.
So, whether you are a casual player or a Splinterlands proplayer, knowing these new skills will prepare you for future battles that you will encounter in Ranked, Brawls and tournaments. It will also allow you to prepare some strategies with existing cards and also with the new cards.
Painforge + Rebellion Epic Reward Cards

Among the new abilities that will be added, the first one that stands out due to its potential to combo with cards from past sets is Painforge. As the name suggests, painforge is an ability that forges the card, giving it +1 power when the card suffers some kind of pain, such as receiving poison damage, burning damage or receiving a hit from an allied card. One question about the effect of the card is that we don't have a clear definition of what power would be, but it certainly must be related to the increase in status.
As for its possible combos, the most straightforward is its use against opponents or combat rules that cause poison, such as Noxious Fumes or Burn. The second possible combo is related to the last part of its effect, which is when an ally causes damage. This part fits perfectly with some epic cards from the Rebellion Rewards collection, which have the negative effect of causing damage to allies, but together with arcane conclave cards that have Painforge it will be possible to activate their +1 Power bonus.
These epic cards from the Rebellion Rewards collection can be obtained today in the Glint Shop, with greater chances in the Epic Draw that costs 7500 Glint or relying more on luck to come across an Epic card in the Loot Chests that range from Minor costing 200, Major Chest 1000 Glint, to the Ultimate Chest that is almost an Epic Draw, costing 4500. If your goal is to is to get this combo for your matches, maybe Epic Draws are a better option.
Bloodline Abilities

For the next set, Splinterlands decided to rebrand the Summoners to Archons and add a bloodline system to the game, which manages to bypass element limitations with the new ability called Bloodline Dominion, which allows it to summon any unit of the same bloodline as the Archon. This ability alone will open up a wide range of opportunities to use cards of another element together without needing them to be neutral, dragon or dual. The possibilities for using bloodlines will be great.

In addition, to make this issue of bloodlines even stronger in the next set, two other abilities have been added that are also related to archons. The first is called Shapeshift which allows the card to be treated as if it were from any bloodline, much like a shapeshift in fantasy worlds.

The other is Bloodline Tribute, which is like the Martyr ability, but focused on bloodlines. That is, when a unit is defeated, all allies of the same bloodline gain bonus status, +1 HP, Speed, Armor and Power. This is perhaps the strongest ability of all because it will give a martyr bonus to all cards.
