As General Sale is almost open to everyone, let's first discuss the two upcoming airdrop cards.

BAAKJIRA

Few had borne witness to the mighty Baakjira before the Chaos Legion arrived. Some believe that the void gates disturbed the polarity of the land and oceans, skewing the gravitational fields; others say it was simply another native of the Splinterlands come to defend their home. One thing is for certain however, when Baakjira breached the surface of the sea and his enormous body crashed back into the water, every man, beast and invader stopped what they were doing, in complete awe of such a wondrous sight.

Hailing from the deepest ocean in all of the World, the Delortane Trench, Baakjira, is one of a few remaining Baleenvast left, a monstrous whale so big that it dwarves everything else native to the Splinterlands, even the largest of dragons. They rarely stray from the safe depths of the Delortane Trench but on rare occasions fishermen have seen them breach for the mouthful of air that will last them an entire year before they need to breath again. Ancient maritime folklore says that seeing one of these beasts is supposed to bring you good fortune and bless you for the remainder of your voyage.

ABILITIES AT MAX LEVEL: VOID SLOW STRENGTHEN HEAL

REACTION: This is a powerful tank indeed for the water element team that increases its health and ability after leveling it up. A great legendary monster to recon with especially when the healing ability is unleashed to this one.

URIEL THE PURIFIER

Uriel was amongst the many Pelacor that fled Solaki and its military regime when he was young. He found himself in Khymeria, like so many of his brothers and sisters, but even though they practised with life magic it just didn’t feel quite pure enough for him and so he travelled to different Worlds, seeking somewhere he could find that elusive clarity of virtue.

On the bright World of Régalien he won his armour in brutal combat, gold and silver plates forged together with the strongest metals known and lacquered in the translucent blood of a diamond giant. An armour that could not only heal him, but would smite his foes should he ever fall in battle. Still, it was not enough.

Then on the fiery World of Temisrok he fought and slayed the terrible drake, Cizilth, winning favour with the bladesmiths who wrought his sword with fiery runes, instilling an everlasting flame into the weapon. And still, the clean virtue wasn’t sufficient, so the hunt continued.

But always he returned to Khymeria and the Splinterlands, searching for that ever-elusive purity that continued to remain just beyond his reach. Eventually this quest became such an obsession that it ultimately ruled his existence, a life’s purpose transformed into something that would forever remain unattainable. And some say that was his downfall.

The Khymerian leaders banished him from their land, believing that his over-zealous and fanatical behavior was becoming a danger to their people. This sent Uriel into a wild rage and he left them with a promise, that when he finally found what he sought, the magic of life would eventually know the true purity of what was missing from its white light, and when that day came they would also feel the sharp edge of his sword.

ABILITIES AT MAX LEVEL: FLYING RECHARGE HEAL REDEMPTION

REACTION: Another very powerful legendary life monster that imposes a lot of armor plus health but starts at 11 mana cost. This tank might be useful in high mana cost battle and since it has a heal ability combining it with some healing monster in the life element team will definitely cause a major problem for any opponent.
