Evening Splinterlands Fans

Time for the SHARE YOUR BATTLE Weekly Challenge.

For this week battle challenge we will be visiting ΛZMΛRÉ and swimming with sharks. God looking at those sharp teeth, makes my hair stand. Although ΛZMΛRÉ is know for magic laden battles, but now and than norms are changed and brute melee confrontations occur.

I own only level-4 gold foil beta SABRE SHARK and contented with it. I use SABRE SHARK time to time to upset enemy with surprise melee onslaught. The best thing about SABRE SHARK is the great speed.

Currently there are 7,909 normal foil and 489 gold foil Alpha SABRE SHARKs in circulation, costing 0.17$/BCX and 3.56$/BCX respectively. Also there are 17,975 normal and 1,234 gold foil Beta SABRE SHARKs circulating, pricing 0.048$/BCX and 0.90$/BCX respectively.

Here is the all time price trend of Normal and Gold Foil Alpha and Beta SABRE SHARK, courtesy SPLINTX. Surprising to see the recent surge due to this battle challenge.

Favored Battle Rules

SABRE SHARK can be used in all battle rules. It also works best in Little League ruleset.

Placement

SABRE SHARK being a low health melee sneak monster is best suited in middle ranks, from where it can continue sneaking.

How to Use

SABRE SHARK can be complemented in variety of ways using various summoners and monsters.

  • ARCHMAGE ARIUS and DARIA DRAGONSCALE can complement SABRE SHARK's melee attack. LIR DEEPSWIMMER and DRAKE OF ARNAK provide SABRE SHARK with shield.
  • SABRE SHARK's melee attack can also be enhanced by Inspire ability monsters.
  • Shield from protect ability monsters can provide extra protection to SABRE SHARK.
  • Triage ability monsters can also be used to heal SABRE SHARK in back ranks.
  • Swiftness, Slow and Blind abilities can make SABRE SHARK ever more difficult to target/handle.


Defense

The best way to defend against SABRE SHARK is by having a Thorns ability monster as a sneak protector.

MY BATTLE USING SABRE SHARK

This was a 24 mana battle with two battle rule, Armored Up and Odd Ones Out.

Battle Link

MY LINEUP

BORTUS

I used BORTUS summoner since I wanted surprise enemy with melee attack and cripple its magic attack.


LORD ARIANTHUS

Upfront I placed my favorite tank, LORD ARIANTHUS. Best tank with Shield, Magic Reflect, Void and Thorns abilities, costing just 5 mana.


WATER ELEMENTAL

On one down position, I placed, WATER ELEMENTAL to absorb any Snipe or Blast Damage. Heal ability makes WATER ELEMENTAL worth it.


CRUSTACEAN KING

Next I placed the healer for my tank, CRUSTACEAN KING. Protect ability is added perk of using CRUSTACEAN KING.


SABRE SHARK

Next I placed the star of our show, SABRE SHARK. I love the speed with which SABRE SHARK Sneaks. Very difficult to evade.


PIRATE CAPTAIN

After Shark came the PIRATE CAPTAIN. A low mana Snipe monster with Inspire ability. It is always good to have a bit inspiration in team.

CREEPING OOZE

On the very last, I placed CREEPING OOZE to slow things down a bit for the enemy.

BATTLE ANALYSIS

The battle went as planned. BORTUS and LORD ARIANTHUS totally screwed the enemy attack plans. WATER ELEMENTAL soaked up the Snipe damage pretty well. And SABRE SHARK continues Sneaking the enemy. It was an easy victory as every team member played their part perfectly, as they were supposed to.

That will be all for today. Take very good care of yourself and people close to you.. Until next time... 👋Adios👋
