HELLO, SPLITERLANDS COMMUNITY !
For this week's featured card, it will be a little different. Because today, we are going to feature the one of the Earth Summoner: The Obsidian. This card is one of the most famous summoner because it can be use on the game, as part of the starter cards. But, do you know on how to use it properly at the battle? If not, let me help through this blog.
So, without further ado, lets start the battle !
🗞 LORE 🗞
The fearsome woman now known as Obsidian grew up in the remote village of Stonebluff as the last remaining Earth mage. Each year, Earth elementalists went off to compete in the contest, leaving Obsidian to train the next generation of warriors. She wished to join the contest of champions, but the village elders advised her against it, saying she needed to stay behind and focus on training others to use Earth magic.
She grew resentful of the way she was treated, knowing she was better than previous mages before her. So, she planned her revenge. In a mine near the village, she taught classes on Earth magic and gained the trust of her students. Her teachings were strenuous and those who could not follow techniques were punished, forced to magically hold obsidian above their heads until it fell on them. She eventually learned to use obsidian to enhance the powers of others. And there was one apprentice she took under her wing. Someone who carried equal anger in his heart. She amplified his abilities in combat practice against other students, making him stronger and more ferocious than his opponents.
The village sat at the bottom of a cliff in the Tower Mountains where frequent rock slides occurred. Not a problem for mages gifted in Earth magic, but Obsidian and her apprentice no longer cared for the village. She saw it as an opportunity to leave behind her old life and find a challenge worthy of her power.
She sent her apprentice to cause a massive rock avalanche. Standing at a distance, she used her power to amplify his own. Her other students rushed to stop it, but they were not up to the task. Not against such raw power. The rocks and debris fell, covering her home, leaving it a ruined field of boulders and dust. She and her apprentice were the only survivors. Word spread of the disaster in the mountains and only whispers remained of Stonebluff.
Obsidian walked away with her head held high knowing she had proven them all wrong. She and her apprentice vanished across the sea and made their way from town to town. They heard of the terror of the Chaos Legion and followed their wake of destruction until they caught the attention of Silus of the Rift. To show off their power, she amplified her apprentice's magic to control and torture Silus' enemies. Silus made Obsidian a close advisor, a tool used to gain information through cruelty.
Obsidian stood calmly several yards back, watching her young apprentice. His robes rustled in the wind as he held his hands up high, struggling to bring down the rocks on the village below.
Obsidian's hands weaved through the air, and she stretched out with her mind. As her energy and her apprentice's connected, she amplified his powers.
He shouted out at the surge of energy coursing through him. The mountains shook, the very ground rumbling beneath their feet. And then the rocks began to fall.
⚔️ THE POWER OF OBSIDIAN ⚔️
Obsidian is an Earth Summoner that has the ability to increase the magic attacks of all friendly monsters. This is a very great advantage because having a higher stats of magic attacks creates huge advantage in the game. Magic attacks cannot be resist by shield. It can only be resisted by an ability called VOID. A short information about void ability, monsters with void ability can reduce the magic ability of your monster into half. That could be a problem if you only have 1 magic attack. But due to Obsidian, the lowest possible attacks of your monsters will be 2 magic attacks, unless another summoner negated that effect.
On using Obsidian, it is better to use it with Earth monsters that has high magic attacks already so that the possibility of eliminating a card on just one turn is high. Also, this summoner is perfect to use against the water unit. Water unit are the masters of speed. It will be difficult to us to defeat the water unit if we use melee or range attacks. Magic attacks never miss. With that, it will be easy for the magic attackers to make a hit for water unit. So if ever you are planning to buy summoners, I highly recommend this card because it has ability that is very important on the game.
⚔️ THE MARKET STATUS OF OBSIDIAN ⚔️
As of today, the current market price of OBSIDIAN is $1.75 at level 1.
This is an expensive price if we compare it to other cards but I do believe that it is still cheap if we consider the ability of this card. Magic attacks are the most powerful attack on the game. It can directly reduce the life of monsters of your opponent. Increasing the magic attack stats of your monsters will be a great advantage in the game. And that is the reason why I think this card is somehow underrated in terms of market price.
On the other hand, as a buyer, that low price is a great opportunity for us to buy this card and sell it later on higher price. I am sure that this card will definitely get its deserve market price due to its ability.
THANK YOU FOR READING EVERYONE!
