My last share your battle challenge post: https://peakd.com/hive-13323/@idmr500/splinterlands-weekly-battle-challenge-quix-and-chaos-synergy In my last post I made a team with chaos knight and quix that was actually really smart and well thought out..........

.......but it didnt get curated.

So today I share a very different battle. It was a melee can attack from anywhere ruleset. Naturally, I use Sloan because he is the only leveled up life summoner I have. His buff does literally nothing for me in this game.

Next I put down my level 3 Uriel and lvl 7 Chaos Knights as beefy meatshields, and fill out some supports to boot.

Even though this strategy is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE (unlike my last post) I win because I have higher leveled monsters.

I hope this much simpler content is something that can appease the curation gods. I will still include my thoughts about the card below for those who may want a more intellectual read.

Let's talk about this card

I absolutely love this card and for 6 mana with shield it is amazing against most teams. Life is also favorite splinter so I choose it quite often, but I typically do not play this card.

Why?

Two major factors contribute to me seldom using this card.

  1. There are so many great tanks and off tanks in the life deck
  2. I am always weary of magic teams and Chaos Knight is weak against magic

For low mana matches: 5 mana I can put up a Binding Reflector and Pelacor Conjurer that are an amazing tank between the two of them, that is significantly better than Chaos Knight against magic

For high mana matches: I will probably just put up Uriel the Purifier because I can.

So that puts Chaos Knight in a little bit of a niche field that is best used used when you highly suspect that the opposing team will be using melee or ranged.
