We'll be using one of my favorite Dragon tank monsters in the game. Hopefully it can give us a huge advantage in this battle using its Thorns ability.
Battle Ruleset

Lineup Strategy
We'll be using this Summoner to give our team +1 armor and also to get access to our tank monster. We'll be using a Dragon+Life Splinter lineup.
Our featured card will be our tank monster protecting our team from frontal attacks. Aside from its huge armor and health, it also has the Thorns ability that deals damage back to Melee attackers when hit.
This will be our backup tank. Its Reach ability will allow it to do Melee attacks on the 2nd position. It also has the Flying ability that gives it an increased chance of evading Melee or Ranged attacks from Monsters who do not have the Flying ability.
We're using this card to give our team additional 2 armor using its Protect ability. Increasing our team's armor can extend their presence on the battlefield and gives them a higher chance of surviving critical hits.
At the middle of our lineup is our Tank Healer. This card can extend our tank's life by healing it each round. Hopefully it can prevent our tank from dying in this battle.
We're going to utilize this card's Opportunity ability to eliminate low health monsters on any position. It also has the Flying ability that gives it a high chance of dodging Melee and Ranged attacks from non-flying monsters.
Last but not the least in our lineup is this card. We're placing it at the last position to protect our team from Sneak attacks. It also has the Flying ability that can dodge Melee and Ranged attacks.

Our opponent decided to use a Death Splinter lineup and a summoner that debuffs our team with -1 Magic and Health.
We lost Truthspeaker on Round 1 due to the Snipe ability of one of the enemy monsters using Magic attack. However, our opponent also lost one monster. Thanks to Celestial Harpy's Opportunity ability that targeted a low health monster at the middle of the enemy lineup.
Our team was able to eliminate 2 enemy monsters on Round 2. One of them died due to the Thorns ability of Djinn Chwala after hitting it with a Melee attack.
Luminous Eagle was able to eliminate an enemy monster sitting in the first position in Round 3. Things are not looking great for our opponent as there are only 2 monsters left on his side of the battlefield.
Another successful kill was done by Luminous Eagle in Round 4. We almost had this round wrapped up if only our last 2 attacks connected but both of them missed hitting the remaining enemy monster.
Luminous Eagle is on fire these last few rounds and has again eliminated the remaining enemy monster in Round 5 giving our team an almost flawless victory.
Conclusion
Djinn Chwala did a great job protecting our team on the frontlines, thanks to our Tank Healer Venari Crystalsmith who kept it alive till the very last round. Although some of our attacks missed to hit their target, Luminous Eagle was there to finish the job and swoop its way to carry our team to victory!!!
Did your strategy work? What will you try differently next time?
Teaming up Djinn Chwala with our Tank Healer Venari Crystalsmith was a superb idea assisting our tank up to the very last round while the rest of the team were slowly eliminating enemy monsters one after the other.
Do you like the DRAGONS? Why or why not?
I like using the Dragon card Djinn Chwala in particular on medium to high mana battles because of its sturdy armor and health along with its Thorns ability that does extra damage against Melee attackers.
I hope you had fun watching our featured battle today. Till the next Battle Challenge. Cheers!!!
What is Splinterlands?

It is similar in concept to games like Magic the Gathering and Heartstone where you build up a collection of cards, which all have various different stats and abilities, and use them to battle other players in skill-based matches. By using a blockchain technology, players can buy, sell and trade their digital assets freely just as if they were physical cards, and all transactions are recorded publicly and immutably.
