Conclave Arcana Splinterland's: New abilities review and strategy to use them(Part 2).
In my last post, I reviewed the some of the amazing abilities that are available in the Conclave Arcana Presale. In that review some of the fellow palyers really got interested by the abilities and especially with the "Bloodline tribute" where not only the ability is looking solid in itself but look like when the stats of the cards get revealed, player might innovate further around this ability to make the game more exciting and unpredictable.
So let's review the rest of the abilities to see how they can fit in the current game scenarios ,or to be precise, how they can change the current game scenarios.
So let us review the rest of the abilities in this post that were not discussed earlier.
1.Shapeshift
Shapeshift is a dynamic ability, where a card itself become a bloodline and get all the bloodline bonuses. My understanding is that this card can be used with any "Bloodline Dominion". Instead of getting fixed for a specific bloodline, it will change it shape to fit in any bloodline. This makes it very versatile card/ability.
2. Reveal
With Reveal, each round applies Revealed to a Camouflaged enemy unit. Once the enemy units are revealed, they can be attacked directly. To me, a few things are not clearly mentioned like whether this ability is "stackable" or whether it's effect remains or not if this monster with the ability gets defeated in the battle.
3. Relentless Strike
In Relentless Strike attacking monster deals true damage. so look like a gameset rule of true strike is now converted into the ability. Apart from true strike , attacker will deal +1 damage if the target has Void, Shield, or Forcefield. I am just wondering if I am going to use these abilities further? This is going to be a really interesting discovery in Conclave Arcane, how the player behavior will be going forward due to this new ability.
4. Bloodline Dominion
Bloodline Dominion will allow player to summon any unit of the same bloodline as this archon, regardless of element. Overall "Bloodline" is a new concept and it will be interesting to see how strong or weak "bloodline" teams will prove against "Elemental" teams.
5. Empower
Empower ability description state that while not revealed, this unit and adjacent units gain +1 Power. So it implicitly means that "empower" cards will have "Camouflage" ability by default. This really makes "Reveal" as necessary counterbalance to "Empower".
6. Last Word
Last Word ability will provide immunity to Final Rest (allied and enemy abilities that trigger on defeat cannot activate). So it is just counter to the "Final Rest" in this scenario. I discussed "Final Rest" in my previous post and below are my excepts from previous post.
In Final Rest, Allied and enemy abilities that trigger on defeat cannot activate. I guess this is very crucial ability in the small mana matches. Do you remember the "Redemption" battle where the player, who did able to attack once , won the the battle due to trigger of "Redemption" when it card defeated. Clever use of multiple ""Waeken" and "Redemption in low mana battle performed this trick. With "Final Rest" ability, it will be RIP to the "Waeken" + "Redemption" combination trick, or we can say at least we have protection against this trick now.
If you have not played Splinterlands or will be returning player, then I will say let give Splinterlands a try.
