(Part 1 of 2)
Recently I've been thinking of super fast monsters to pair with Byzantine Kitty to boost their speeds further. One of the most fun things to see in Splinterlands is when your enemies cannot hit you (and one of the frustrating ones if you're the one who cannot hit, lol).
Anyway, so here's what I found, the fastest monsters in the Silver league:
Lightning Dragon
From the Dragon Splinter, we have the Lightning Dragon with 6 speed. Since it is a Dragon, we can use it directly with Kitty (of course, depending on the ruleset). It is a ranged attacker and an excellent backline monster: it will have 8 speed after the Kitty buff, plus its flying ability. Good luck trying to hit it.
Snipeback wolf
The first of the three Death splinters in this list, we have Snipeback wolf. It has 6 speed with Reach and Thorns, so it's a fast secondary tank. You can build a super-fast line-up with Kitty + Death: Snipeback in your second position and the next one in this list as your tank.
Nightmare
Nightmare is a weak but fast Death tank. At Level 5, it has only 2 melee damage, but has Blast, and is very fast at 6 speed.
Fallen Specter
Another one from the Death Splinter, we have Fallen Specter with 6 speed and flying. This is an excellent card costing only 2 Mana with Demoralize. It gets better in Gold as it gets Headwinds at Level 3. This monster is a must in equalizer games.
Air Elemental
Moving now to my favorite splinter: Life! The first of two on the list is Air Elemental. At Level 3, it has 6 speed and Dodge. Excellent backline monster, and great attacker as well with 3 ranged attack for 5 mana.
Feral Spirit
Feral Spirit is one of my go-to cards whenever I have a Sneak quest. Very fast with 6 speed at Level 5, with 2 melee attack for only 3 mana. I usually partner it with Silvershield Knight with Inspire and Silvershiled Assassin with Double strike - and have tons of fun watching their backline disintegrate, lol.
I'll follow up with part 2 tomorrow for Earth, Water, and Fire!
