Splinterlands is a pretty complicated game with interesting battles with all the options available. This is a part of the weekly social media challenge for Splinterlands. This week is about a great fight where I won because of Captain Katie and the damage it can put out.

Featured cards

Captain Katie is a life splinter that costs 7 mana and it starts with snipe and bloodlust. It learns divine shield at level 6. I have this card at level 4 and I use it from time to time. I think it's a great card depending on the situation and the magic snipe damage can be deadly.

Rule set, Battle and Plan

Helios Matriarch increases my speed by 1 and gives access to a gladiator. My Tank is Imperial Knight due to the void armor and heal. When combined with rebirth, it gives it another chance at tanking a lot of hits. Void Dragon is my backup tank with void. I have Captain Katie in the 4th spot surrounded by martyr monsters. My last monster is Naga Assassin with backfire.

Round 1

At first glance, I think that I have the advantage in this match. My opponent's damage is all spread out and I think that I have more damage compared to my opponent. The only problem would be that Cursed Windeku because of the heal.

Round 3

My opponent lost two monster and that tank got 2 marytr buffs while I got two stacks of bloodlust on Captain Katie. I think my lineup is stronger due to Captain Katie.

Round 6

At this point, Captain Katie stacked another two bloodlust and it will attack that heal tank up front. So I don't think there is any suspense in this match as it is my win.

I won a few turns later like I expected with my Captain Katie destroying my opponent's monsters.

Conclusion

The battle this time around went as I expected. Captain Katie was a great damage dealer as it stacked bloodlust by killing monsters and it was also later buffed by some of my martyr monsters. I was worried a bit at the start due to Cursed Windeku but as Captain Katie got stronger, I became confident. Imperial Knight was also a good tank as that void armor gave it a lot of buffer even after being resurrected. I felt that my opponent's damage was too spread out and that gave me the chance to win this match.
