Hello Splinterlands and Hive Community!

It's been some time since I didn't take part in the share your battle weekly challenge. But this time, the theme Dragons came at the perfect time since I've been grinding my way using the Dragons cards. For this challenge, Carnage Titan will take the spotlights for this week's participation!

Carnage Titan

Carnage Titan is a Legendary Dragon monster of the Chaos Legion Edition and costs 11 Mana to use in battles

  • 8 Health and 7 Armor makes it a great tank that can sustain a total of 15 hit points!
  • 3 Speed is okayish, not too fast nor too slow, attacks at a decent time and can make some enemy miss
  • 2 Melee Attack is decent but even better when coupled with his abilities:
  • Double Strike: Titan will be extremely dangerous and hits like a truck for a total of 4 damage:
    • For his battle we'll be using Daria Dragonscale for the +1 Melee Buff: Carnage Titan will be dealing 6 damageper round!
  • Reach: Don't underestimate this ability, this monster can be placed at the second position making it less prone to direct damage while dealing damage!

The Market

You see that the regular foil of Carnage Titan is priced at $7.86 at the current level 1 while the gold foil version is priced at $43. The current price is higher than the legendary Chaos Legion reward cards but not too expensive compared to other legendaries.

As for the rent, I've rented it at 0.49 DEC/day for 1020 CP / DEC ratio which is super profitable to rent it and gain some extra CP points!

The Battle

Ruleset: Explosive Weaponery BLAAAAST Mana Cap: 24 Mana Active: Fire, Water, Death, Dragon Battle Link

With Earth inactive on this battle, enemy will less likely go for a magic composition on this ruleset so I've opted for a couple of heavy mana beefy monsters!

The Lineup

CardAbilityComment
+1 Melee DamageYou can never go wrong with Daria, especially when going Full Melee Damage! and in a BLAST ruleset!
Thorns One of my favourite dragons! It got heavy armor, high Health and especially Thorns knowing that enemy will most likely go for a melee attack comp
Double Strike + ReachAs we said earlier and adding to that a +1 melee buff: Carnage Titan will be dealing 6 damage per turn + Blast damage!
Almost forgot about it, it'll make enemy waste their sneak/opportunity attack on it.

Round 1

  • As I expected, enemy went for fire element and the battle seems close at first sight, Glad I've put Chaos Agent to absorb Serpentine Spy attack on this round! Loving that +1 Melee from DARIA on my monsters!
  • Do not underestimate the Armor on both Djinn Chwaya and Carnage Titan absorbing both direct and blast damage from the entire enemy team!
  • Look at Living Lava getting melted by both my dragons! and that heavy blast damage on Tenyl Striker!

Round 2-3

  • Carnage Titan is on Rampage! Taking down Living Lava, Striker and Serpentine spy on a SINGLE round by itself without giving them the chance to retaliate! Tell me this is not OP
  • Carnage Titan Dealt 8 damageon this round!
  • Djinn Chwala doesn't fall off as it managed to deal 5 damage to both Lava Spider and Radiated Scorcher!

Battle Result

A Flawless Victory

Did my strategy work? What should I try differently next time?

My strategy worked better than I expected as I expected a very close battle with Carnage Titan surviving with a tiny health. The explosive weaponary went extremely in favor of the Double Strike of Carnage Titan and the Damage output was crazy to watch (that Triple Kill). If we had a higher mana cap, I'll be adding VENATOR KINJO with the Reflection Shield between Djinn Chwala and Carnage Titan to nullify enemy Blast damage.

That's it for today's battle and if you didn't joined splinterlands yet, feel free to use this Link
