Power of Yodin Zaku the Summoner

avatar

Hello fellow Hiveians and Splinterlands fans!

I wanted to share the recent epic battle that I had today with the incredible new legendary Fire summoner Yodin Zaku!

This summoner is bad-freaking-ass if you ask me. Hopefully I can enjoy it for at least a little while (I feel it will get nerfed because of how awesome it is, hopefully I’m wrong though!) but having a plus one bonus to range damage, health and splash damage via the Blast ability is wild!

Some people will certainly hate on the card, wanting it to get nerfed but I think it adds a fair element to the game since we have lots of high level people running around with maxed out Lord Arianthus cards that reflect everything except range attacks back. This is where someone like me, who doesn’t have an Arianthus at all, can be effective at fighting them. I’ve heard numerous people say ‘revise your strategy’ to fight the card, but it’s mostly impossible given that you’re getting slammed from the whole back line behind him! ...impossible until now.

Well, to those with that revise mindset, here’s my revision now! Enter Zaku, the latest Untamed legendary fire summoner! I shared a link to the battle I was in where I am able to fight back!

Now granted, my opponent, @korea.test didn’t play the rules to his best options, which was slow attacks first. I have done it many times, I know the pain! I was still looking forward to the battle, where I can give people who have maxed out cards a run for their money. My highest summoner myself is level 4 epic Daria, level 4 water Alric and level 6 common promo magic Elwin. Not too strong but I can get the job done in diamond 3 and 2 in many battles!

Incredibly enough, I only lost one card, my first one the Molten Ogre, which itself is a great card even at low levels.

His first line card was the only one that had return fire, which reflects ranged attacks back. Everything else had thorns or magic reflect. Goes to show how heavy the reflect game is for those elements! Makes it hard in many battles.

I was very pleased beating someone from Diamond 1 with my setup. I was even more pleased beating someone that had maxed out cards when I don’t have a single maxed card yet! It was a great battle where I knew the rules up front and I think played them well. Fire has a lot of slower attack cards which come in handy in battles like this! Below is a link to my battle if you’d like to watch it!

Yes!
So... ya know? I think people hate the cards they don't have... cause they face them in battle and it hurts. It hurts so much. 🤣 I find my own thoughts of hatred towards cards on occassion. 😉

Also... THANK YOU for pimping peakd.com. I much prefer this interface. Dudes over there are great at their coding. 🥰@carrieallen

I love PeakD, started with Steempeak and now they've made it better! Would love for that to be the official front end for the chain but thankfully lots of us already use it so we can spread the word to those that aren't as familiar with it.

Ah Arianthus, he's a real thorn (literally and figuratively) in my side! I'm just glad that I now finally have a way to take him down with a fighting chance of winning the battle!

Yeah man! I love the card. I can't wait to get it to level 2, if that ever happens lol I'll take level 1 though. One thing that's been a pain in the ass is now that I've gotten it, I haven't received fire quest ONCE. The past 3 damn days it's been no neutral lol I don't necessarily mind but when I want to get a quest, it doesn't happen! haha
