sourceHeyya spliner fam,
Welcome to my blog for my weekly dose of splingerlands engagement post. A few days ago i spoke about a battle and how I went about it. As I've always maintained, spl is not stagnant game and as things continue to change you have to follow the trend or be left out. If you tend to be away from the game for longer periods of time there are a lot of things that you are set to miss and it'll supposed you at how much information you have lost in a short people which can be a long period for the game.
Currently the buzz is around yaba's pickle which is less than a day away. This will happen for people who want to purchase with the sps snapshot option. A few weeks ago I explained in a post how one should by to be able to participate in the one that involves the sps requirement. After the sps requirement there are other ways one can get these pickle but they can only happen after the sps requirement one has been concluded. For me, I will be able get my hands on just one pickle if I do decide to purchase one. As at the time of snapshot of sps I had only 1600 sps staked. This 1600 helped me qualify for the chance to by one pickle. Incase you have forgotten, you only have 1 pickle per 1000 sps staked. I wished I had 2000 which would have helped me get more pickles but I couldn't manage that.
In this post today I will be talking about a rather need card. This card is called the Tasoshi Drakamoto. As the name implies its inspiration is definitely from Satoshi. If I didn't know any better I'd ague that it's what they wanted to name this card at first but then later on decided against it.
The tasoshi drakamoto is a card in the splinterlands exclusive shop which can be bought with vouchers. You'll need 250 vouchers to get your hand on this rather intriguing card I'd say.
The tasoshi drakamoto is a fire card magic card. It has a mana of 8 and 3 speed at max level. It has 6 health, 4 speed and 2 shield all at max level.
It has rather familiar abilities in sneak, stun, inspire and then spite which is a fairly new ability which I am sure most of us have come across in battle a couple of times. When defeated, 100% chance to counter attack.
Just like with all exclusive voucher cards you are guaranteed a gold foil when you purchase 50 of this cards at once. We all know how valuable a gold foil card is on splinterlands and a lot of people will love to have gold foil cards as well.
With gold foil cards you need lesser cards to get them to the next level and they seem to be generally stronger. There are several ways in which one can work with this card. With it been a magic card and having the inspire and spite ability I would generally advice getting this card into the first position so it can be attacked. In this way it has the chance to retaliate after it has been killed. But then a better way to go about it is to put it as your last card. When all your cards gets killed it can act as a double attacker for you. But this will mostly only help you get a draw if it's your last card.
With its stunner ability and sneak ability the best is to get it away from the first position and away from the last position as well. The sneak helps it target the last card which at times have proved to be a very good strategy.
Man, having this card alongside the rebirth ruleset will help do a lot of damage. I say this cause this will help you get the spite to work 2 times in the same game and can literally be a game changer. This is definitely a card to have.
