LAVA LAUNCHER - This new reward card has devastating fire power!

What’s up my fellow Splinterlands warriors!

I hope all of are having a fantastic day with your friend and family and also enjoying the game at it’s best in meantime. The time is passing by and we are already at the middle of this current season with only 8 days and 19 hours left for it to end. So , let us play, win and collect as many season chests as possible before the time runs out!

Most probably when this current month ends, the splinterlands will introduce the SPS token as rewards for winning ranked matches (both wild and modern format) and also in reward chests and to replace the DEC from the rewards, as they have announced in their last couple of town hall summery posts.

On the other hand, we also experienced a good pump in DEC price and a bad dip with the price of SPS. The DEC is currently being traded for 0.00069 $ per unit with a -1.55% price change within last day. Now, looking at SPS, thou the SPS airdrop ended weeks ago and supply got crunched with a stable increase in price since the airdrop ended and SPS went from 0.049$ per unit to 0.08$ per unit. But, with the latest dip, it’s price has again fell down to 0.0562$ per unit. Well, there is a dip with the 2 main dominators BTC and ETH which may have caused this downtrend, so let us see if SPS recovers it’s price from here or goes further down.

LAVA LAUNCHER

Now, let us move towards my main theme as today, I will showcase another awesome new Reward monster, Lava Launcher with you all. It is really a Giant epic edition Ranged attack type monster that got launched into splinterlands with the latest Reward edition. This monster needs 9 mana to join any battle and this monster is a fire unit. Although it is a Ranged monster but it can attack from the first position because of the Close Range ability which is provided to it from starting phase. Let us now find more about this monster tier wise at below.

BRONZE

This monster needs a total of 4 epic cards to reach into this stage. On bronze stage, this monster has 3 Ranged power at 3 speed with 6 shield and 6 health along with the Close Range ability.

SILVER

To reach in Silver stage, this monster needs a total of 20 Epic cards. On this stage, this monster equips another ability of Stunt that helps him to stun the targeted enemy monster therefore if applied, that enemy can't perform an attack on next round. This monster also has 4 ranged attack at 3 speed with 6 health and 6 shield.

IMPORTANT POINTS ABOUT LAVA LAUNCHER

1. It's a pretty big monster in both looks and mana cost. This Giant Ranged power Monster cots 9 mana to be used in any battle and hence you generally cant use it in low or even medium mana limit matches, but only in those high limit ones.

2. This monster have the Close Range ability from starting phase therefore this monster can behave like a melee attacker monster and can Attack enemy monster from first position easily.

3. This monster also has the Stunt ability that gives it a 50% chance o stun the enemy whenever attacking. When a monster with stun hits a target, it has a chance to stun the target causing it to skip it's next turn.

4. This monster has a Huge Shield along with a Great Health bcx. So it's a good choice against melee and range attacks.

MARKET STAT

It's a Fire element reward edition epic monster. This price is around $0.13/bcx and will cost you starting from 186.848 DEC onwards and if you pay around $5.90, you may buy the max level of this card as listed right now.

TUSK THE WIDE

On the first position, I placed this Mega Melee Defensive chaos monster mainly to save my front defence from magic attacks. This monster has 3 melee attack at 1 speed and 14 health along with Void And Inspire ability. The void will save me from magic attacks while the Inspire ability will give all my friendly monster +1 melee attack.

RADIATED BRUTE

I placed this monster on the second position as it's a Melee attacker with Reach ability and this monster needs 5 mana to join any battle. This monster has 4 melee attack with 4 speed and 6 health along with Reach and Enrage ability. It can attack from the second position because of reach and will get increased stat when damaged with the Enrage ability.

GOBLIN FIREBALLER

I placed this Ranged monster at the third position of my line-up mainly for it's Stun ability. This monster possesses 2 ranged attack at 4 speed and 4 health along with Snare and Stunt ability.

DJINN INFERNI

I placed this Magic blaster monster on the fourth position of my lineup mainly because of it's high powered magic attack. This monster has 5 magic power at 4 speed with 4 health along with both the Giant killer and Stunt ability. The Giant killer will deal 2x damage to enemy monsters with 10 or more mana cost so that's another good point of choosing this monster.

LAVA LAUNCHER

I placed my Main Ranged monster on the Fifth position of my line-up. This gigantic monster needs 9 mana to join any battle. I have already talked about this monster in detail above so let us move on.

SPARK PIXIES

On the last position, I placed this 'fast like a flash' Ranged monster which has 3 Ranged power at 7 speed with 3 health along with Flying, Stunt and Dodge ability. The Flying + Dodge combo has more chance to evade enemy melee and range attacks.

BATTLE BEGINS

On the very first round, after all the monsters got their abilities and disabilities or buffs and debuffs, my Pixies monster attacked first and destroyed enemy Tusk the Wide and Fineas Rage's Shield. After that, the enemy Fineas Rage destroyed my Tusk Monster's shield, followed by my Djinn Inferni which damaged enemy monster Tusk the Wide and Fineas Rage. Next, the opponent's Djinn Inferni damaged my Tusk monster and my Goblin damaged enemy Tusk Monster along with Fineas Rage. Then, My Radiated Brute also damaged both Enemy Monster Tusk the Wide and Fineas Rage, followed by My Main monster Lava Launcher which destroyed the enemy Tusk the Wide monster and also damaged the Fineas Rage as well. Next, the enemy Lava Launcher also Damaged and Stun my Tusk the Wide monster. Enemy Molten Ranged monster damaged my Tusk the Wide and the round ended here.

ROUND 2

as the second round begins, At first my Spark pixies damaged enemy Fineas Rage along with enemy Molten monster. After that, my Djinn Inferni destroyed enemy Fineas Rage monster and also damaged THE Molten Ash Golem, followed by the enemy monster Djinn Inferni which Damaged my Front Monster Tusk the Wide and My Goblin Fireballer Damaged enemy Molten Ash Golem along with Flame Monkey.

After that my Radiated Brute and Goblin Fireballer destroyed enemy Lava Launcher shield. At the end My main Monster Lava Launcher destroyed enemy last monster Lava Launcher.

As you can see from the match above, my Lava Launcher really performed well in this match! In the first round, he killed down the wounded enemy TUSK and also damaged the Rage with blast damage. Later on second round, he again did an amazing double kill with the enemy Molten Ash Golem and Flame Monkey with it’s devastating blast cannon ball. He really become the main firepower in my team which was soaking out all the health from enemy monsters while my Pixie was attacking the first and removing the armours from those enemy monsters and was helping my Lava to attack directly to their health..

I hope you really enjoyed the match that I described above. Do you also play splinterlands matches with this awesome monster? Or you choose other monsters over it? Let me know in the comments below and I will be seeing you all in my next post!
