Not feeling so creative? But you've been battling your heart out?!

This challenge is for you!

Each week we'll have a new THEME for the challenge, but always required: BATTLES.

CHALLENGE RULES

THEME: RETALIATE

Ability: When hit with a Melee attack, Monsters with Retaliate have a chance (50%) of attacking their attacker.

Note from Carrie: Why hello there Splinterlanders! First, sorry for the slow post, we got behind on curating (don't worry, I'm bringing on some new blood soon) and I didn't want to post another challenge until we were caught up. Okay! Since it seemed like ya'll had fun last week with an ability I decided to keep it rolling. And since we've recently been suspended on Twitter, why not highlight RETALIATE this week? 😎 There are 15 monsters with this power. I still remember a time in the way back when this was first introduced. I fell in love. I always feel like I'd retaliate if someone hit me so it only makes sense. 😂 What is your strategy around this ability? Only in the front? Always with Melee Mayhem? What about those low health monsters? You know who I'm talking about... Still worth it? Tell us! Share your knowledge! And have fun crushing your opponent!💪 😘@carrieallen

REMINDER: If you do not own the themed card/monster you are welcome to create a battle post and talk about ANY card/monster. Have fun!

• Create a post sharing a video (link) of one of your battles with RETALIATE.
  • Remember to link to your battle even if you also upload it to a video hosting platform (like youtube).
  • Make it look good. Need help formatting? Check out this ULTIMATE MARKDOWN TUTORIAL
  • NOTE: Your posts will NOT be re-Tweeted from the Official Splinterlands Twitter unless you take time to create an actual THUMBNAIL. Sticking the image of the character at the top of your post looks horrible when shared on social media. You are welcome to use the same THUMBNAIL/COVER that is in this post or check out THIS POST for how to create your own.

Manual Curation

That's right! Splinterlands/steemmonsters is manually curating (upvoting) your posts! We currently are working with 7 amazing community curators, plus official team members also have the 'powers' to upvote! We (the curation team) work together to try to upvote in order of entry. Sometimes we get a couple of days behind, just so we can let the VP heal in order to give larger upvote values. Make sure you drop your links within a day or two of posting so we can get to it. If you ever have any quesitons or concerns DO reach out. And as always, thank you for creating amazing content and sharing Splinterlands with the world! 😍@carrieallen
