Another epic battle in the world of Splinterlands. This time for the weekly battle challenge (You can find out more about it here: Battle Mage Secrets Weekly Challenge!, the rules were a bit different - Fire & Regret.

ℹ️ Return Fire

• All units receive the Return Fire ability at the start of the battle. > Enemy units that attack with ranged attacks receive damage back.

• Damage returned is equal to damage of the attacker divided by 2, rounded up.

• Ranged attack units with the Reflection Shield ability do not take damage from reflected magic attacks.

• The Amplify ability increases damage.

The Fire & Regret rule granted all units the Return Fire ability from the start of the battle, meaning any enemy unit attacking me with ranged attacks would suffer damage in return. And the most intriguing part was that the damage returned was equal to half the attacker's damage, always rounded up as written in its Splintercards description.

ℹ️ Monster Composition

My strategy relied on creating a balance between defense and attack, focusing on sustaining my frontline. In this case, Flesh Golem was my best choice, along with its healing ability, I added a few more monsters capable of providing extra support. My composition for this battle looked like this below.

Maybe I'm talking nonsense, but considering my win rate with Flesh Golem, it seems to be one of the best frontlines in Bronze/Silver leagues. Great attack, speed, and 9 points of health, which can be increased by involving other monsters with specific abilities.

Remember, I'm using Mylor Crowling, the nightmare of any physical attacker, he adds the Thorns ability to all my monsters.

Another detail was that I also needed to defend against magical attacks, but Flesh Golem doesn't have abilities like Void or Void Armor, which made me think of using an interesting monster that I don't see many people talking about. That's Mushroom Seer.

Although its low speed and health are somewhat concerning, it compensates with its ability to decrease enemy magical attack. Since I was sure that, due to the rule, they wouldn't try to use many monsters with ranged attacks, this choice was essential to complete my composition.

Rarely, when I'm paying close attention to battles, I end up watching until the third round. I can already try to predict the outcome after these rounds, seems silly, but it's almost a 50% accuracy on that.

Check this out, while my tank manages to maintain its initial health points through itself and other supports, the enemy might already lose their tank on this turn since my full team will cause exactly (8) total attack, taking advantage of their support's low speed, preventing them from healing it in time.

ℹ️ How Dumb Can I Be?

I don't understand how I did this, I just left this post as a draft and forgot to save the battle link. I ended up playing some tournaments and guild battles, and look at this: I couldn't find the link anywhere, which made me angry at my stupidity.

I tried to get it in every way, but it seems like some sites like PeakMonsters weren't showing my battle history, strange.

What did I do? I went straight to the API.

Hey, look at this, just looking at it made me a little dizzy, and I'm not a programmer to understand what's being executed there. However, for this, we have a vast community, ready to share the knowledge that God gave them. After some research, I understood what I had to do, find the battle ID. But that was almost impossible in this amount of text, so I looked for the battle rules, and believe me, there were only three of those.

Thank you for this rule being quite difficult to be selected. Thank you Splinterlands...

Versão em Português

Mais uma batalha épica no mundo de Splinterlands. Desta vez para o desafio semanal de batalha (Você pode encontrar mais sobre isso aqui: Battle Mage Secrets Weekly Challenge!, as regras eram um pouco diferentes - Fire & Regret.

ℹ️ Return Fire

• All units receive the Return Fire ability at the start of the battle. > Enemy units that attack with ranged attacks receive damage back.

• Damage returned is equal to damage of the attacker divided by 2, rounded up.

• Ranged attack units with the Reflection Shield ability do not take damage from reflected magic attacks.

• The Amplify ability increases damage.

A regra Fire & Regret concedia a todas as unidades a habilidade Return Fire desde o início da batalha, isso significava que qualquer unidade inimiga que me atacasse com ataques à distância sofreria danos em troca. E o mais intrigante era que o dano devolvido era igual ao dano do atacante dividido por dois, arredondado para cima sempre como está escrito na sua descrição em Splintercards.

ℹ️ Composição de monstros

Minha estratégia se baseava em criar um equilíbrio entre defesa e ataque focando no sustento da minha linha de frente, no caso Flesh Golem foi minha melhor escolha, juntamente com sua habilidade de se curar, eu adicionei mais alguns monstros capazes de lhe conceder um suporte a mais. Minha composição para essa batalha ficou da seguinte maneira logo abaixo.

Talvez eu possa estar falando besteira, mas considerando minha taxa de vitória com Flesh Golem, ele me parece uns dos melhores linhas de frentes em ligas Bronze / Prata para se ter. Um ótimo ataque, velocidade e uma saúde de 9 pontos, que pode ser aumentada envolvendo outros monstros com as habilidades especificas.

Lembrando que estou utilzando Mylor Crowling, o pesadelo de qualquer atacante físico, ele adiciona a habilidade Thorns em todos meus monstros.

Outra detalhe foi que, eu também precisaria me defender para ataques mágicos, mas Flesh Golem não contém habilidades como Void ou Void Armor, isso me fez pensar em utilizar um monstro interessante, não vejo muitas pessoas falando sobre ele. Trata-se de Mushroom Seer.

Embora sua baixa velocidade e saúde sejam algo preocupante, ele compensa com sua habilidade de diminuir o ataque mágico inimigo. Como eu tinha certeza que, devido a regra, ele não tentaria utilizar muitos monstros com ataque a distância, essa escolha foi essencial para completar minha composição.

Raramente quando estou prestando bastante atenção nas batalhas, eu acabo assistindo até o terceiro round. Eu já posso tentar definir o resultado após esse rounds, parece besteira mas é quase que 50% de acerto sobre isso.

Veja isso, enquanto meu tanque consegue se manter com seus pontos de vida iniciais através de si mesmo e dos demais suportes, o inimigo já pode perder seu tanque nesse turno, já que meu time completo irá causar exatamente (8) de ataque total, aproveitando a baixa velocidade do suporte dele, impedindo que ele consiga curar o mesmo a tempo.

ℹ️ Como eu sou burro

Eu não entendo como eu fiz isso, apenas deixei essa postagem como rascunho e esqueci de salvar o link de batalha. Acabei jogando alguns torneios e batalhas de guilda e veja isso: Não encontrava o link de maneira alguma, isso me fez ficar irritado com minha burrice.

Eu tentava adquirir isso de toda forma, mas parece que alguns sites como PeakMonsters não estavam mostrando meu histórico de batalhas, estranho.

Oque eu fiz? Fui diretamente no API.

Ei veja isso, só de olhar já me deixou um pouco tonto, e eu não sou nenhum programador para entender oque está sendo executado ali. No entanto, para isso temos uma vasta comunidade, pronta para compartilhar o conhecimento que Deus lhe deu. Após algum tempo de pesquisa, entendi oque teria que fazer, encontrar o ID da batalha. Mas isso era quase impossível nessa quantidade de texto, então procurei pelas regras de batalhas, e acredite só, havia apenas três dessas.

Obrigado por essa regra ser bastante difícil de ser selecionada. Obrigado Splinterlands...

Aqui está oque eu consegui:
