SHARE YOUR BATTLE Weekly Challenge! GRUMPY DWARF

Hello guys,

Today I am going to share with you another battle in @splinterlands.

Battle details:
I played with earth splinter. And my opponent used a dragon splinter against me.

It was a battle of total 28 mana cap with two rules:

On the battlefield.

My opponent had a scary team. Good thing that I was not relying solely on melee attacks.

I lost my pawns but my opponent was about to lose his tank.

Now I lost my tank and situation seemed to be very bad.

My team were still fighting back but at this point victory seemed unlikely.

Now both teams were barely alive.

Losing my mage would have meant losing a battle.

But he stood his ground...

And somehow carried my team to victory.

In this battle I won 26.462 Dec and 22 League Rating. My strategy worked well- my team had enough monsters with stun ability so I won.

I don't use GRUMPY DWARF often. But it is a decent monster.

I would like having more mages in my team.

I hope that you enjoyed my battle. If you would also like to start playing splinterlands and earning by making posts about your battles or by making art inspired by splinterlands please consider using my referral link:
