Let's Breakdown this Beautiful Battle
The Prediction: The only splinter available here was life and dragon so the probability of him picking Sloan was very high. I could have also picked Sloan but by picking Quix I end up getting the speed advantage
From there I doubled down on speed with time mage to ensure all my units were going first. The rest is just support and damage to fill in the team.
Chaos Knight worked particularly well here because of the debuffed archery, his entire team of archers were only hitting for 1 or 0, making it nearly impossible to finish me off.
End result was a flawless match with a very healthy Chaos knight.
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.
- There are so many great tanks and off tanks in the life deck
- 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.
Anyways, that is my breakdown for this card, I hope you are having a wonderful day and if for some reason you are not playing Splinterlands already, use the referral link below to signup
