A Splinterlands battle with 5 Dragons

By Wazza84 | games-and-stuff | 27 Jun 2022


For this weeks battle share, let's see how a full deck (well, kinda) of Dragons holds up against a death team.

For this week's challenge i used the following scaled friends in my Silver league battle...

These are the battle rules for this battle:

  • 56 Mana cap
  • Reverse Speed: With an average speed of 3 and their high stats, dragons can be used here. If it where a lower capped mana game, i should've used some "slower" cards.
  • Melee Mayhem: Because melee monsters can attack from any position, this is a great rule-set to unleash all of their power.

So, after these rules, here are my contenders:

Drake of Arnak

The well known summoner which is in the basic deck. Granting an additional 1 defense to all monsters.

Carnage Titan

carnage titan

This great 2nd place titan deserves a spot on your team playing in high mana battles. With it's high defense and health, and reach in combination with double strike it can really deal a blow to your opponents team.

Robo-Dragon Knight

robo-dragon knight
This card is a great tank due to it's stats even against magic teams. But because of this battle's rule-set Melee Mayhem and 56 mana to spend, i used it behind the Carnage Titan to due some damage.

  • Level Used: 1
  • CP: 1000
  • Rent: 4.018 DEC
  • Buy: $25.43 (level 1)

Another great tank which can stand up against waters Diemonshark. With it's high attack and trample, it can really take out several opponents at once

  • Rarity: Legendary
  • Level Used: 1
  • CP: 500
  • Rent: 1.6 DEC
  • Buy: $2.712 (level 1)

  • Level Used: 1
  • CP: 500
  • Rent: 1.985 DEC
  • Buy: $6.078 (level 1)

Did my line-up work?


As you can see in the replay, that despite my attacks got lowered by the Disintegrators Demoralize and Deaths lowering of magic, the dragons managed to wipe out the team in 3 rounds.

So for this particular rule-set i think the setup was great. But if it were just normal rules, i would changed the position of the carnage titan to second place, replace the robo-dragon knight and the desert dragon for something like the void dragon and the dragon jumper.

Would you these cards it again?


Yes, despite that they all have there own use-case, for this rule-set and mana cap they work perfectly together.

I hope you enjoyed my entry for this weeks battle, and if you do, don't forget to like and follow!

Hope to see you on the battlefield or in the next share your battle by splinterlands!
