Splinterlands Battle Mage Secrets - Fifty Shades Of Gray And The Playroom's Mushroom

Greetings Splinterlands Summoners! The classic weekly battle challenge retired to make way for the Battle Mage Secrets series, making it more entertaining. This new set-up adds a focus on dynamic strategies, as players will be able to choose from a greater selection of more diverse units to bring into battle.

Let's enjoy the Shades Of Gray battle-rule, when only the neutral units may be used in battles. This is a though one! The summoners are unaffected by the rule, so ... what tactic to approach?

This would probably go a bit to hot! Take some clothes off and be ready to enter the secret playroom! You need to sign a contract and never ever tell others about what we are doing there!

While waiting for more shades of gray to turn up... let me tell you about my growing mushroom! It's get's bigger and bigger while we play! Let me tell you that this battle-rule is as rare as shady billionairs! ROCK SOLID!

This little fungi is so cool that it can please you instantly! The Madcap Magus is a game-changer, with his Scattershot and Life Leech skills. Kinky mode activated, and the pleasure tools are on!

Only 27 mana for team selection, and the Super-Sneak battle-rule added in the mix for extra drama. All melee units will attack the monster set on the last position, so let's adapt to this. I set the Venari Marksrat there, to bless Quora with Martyr!

Lobb Lowland: -1 Speed to enemies & +1 Gladiator card

Xenith Monk: Melee tank with Heal

Madcap Magus: Caster with Scattershot and Life Leech

Quora Towershead: Melee/Caster with Heal and Bloodlust

Venari Marksrat: Ranged with Martyr

Thaddius was a good choice, as he reduced Quora's magical damage by one and the health of all my units. The overall team selection was good, but not exceptional. All units were blessed with Sneak from the battle-rule but Uraues and the Silent Sha-Vi already had this ability.

The first round was full of random attacks and general focus on the units in the last positions. The Madcap Magus was shooting like crazy, and the Xenith Monk used his healing powers to delay his demise.

It got hotter when the Venari triggered the Martyr on Quora, as she prepared for the bloodlust feast that was yet to come. Massive heal to get back to full health and all eyes on the Dhampir archer.

Let it be carnage! No.. not the symbiote, just Quora becoming the Grim Reaper! She gracefully landed both attacks, and was time for bloodlust! Mr. Gray was in a good mode, and he fancy Quora!

The sudden stats boost was beneficial, as the enemies set the bullseye on her back. But never underestimate the power of heal... as she maintained her health at higher levels.

The Xenith Monk done the same thing as Quora, using his healing ability to stay alive! Quora's new target was more elusive, but the Silent Sha-vi fate was already decided by the gods of war.

Quora tired again at the start of the fifth round, and this time her effort granted one more dose of bloodlust! The Xenith Monk was handling well the Carrion Shade, keeping his health bar at maximal levels. Everyone was focusing to damage Quora and ignored the Madcap Magus, as the little guy kept bulking up.

Quora dodged the Arachne Thug attack and managed to heal in time, as she flexed her muscles for the endgame! Heal, spell, bloodlust... sounds simple! Quora added another name on her hitlist, as Uraeus was blasted, and bloodlust made her eyes glimmer!

No one thought that such a beautiful creature could be so deadly! Quora eliminated the Chaos Agent, dodged another attack and then healed herself to full health! Are we ignoring the 18-health mushroom or not?

It was fun to see how this battle was a one horse race! Or call it a walk in the park, through mushrooms that grow as big as horses! Quora with another deadly spell, and a final bloodlust that took her to 16 health and 15 cumulated damage.

Are we still ignoring Mr.Gray's mushroom even when it has with 19 inches? Sorry... I meant health points? Shades of gray everywhere! See the full battle here!

Let me tell you how hard I tried! I played since Thursday... all the way to Sunday evening! Played over 70 games and didn't seen "Shades of Gray" even once! Also, let's add another 34 games in tournaments without the battle rule, and three more in the brawl!

Approximatelly 110 battles played waiting for this specific battlerule to turn me on! I was finally satisfied Sunday night, when fifty shades of gray came with a good mix. Aren't you entertained? Protection is mandatory so I armored up! My girl Obsidian was ready for the Playroom, and Alvar was there to overwatch!

Obsidian: +1 Spell Power

Legionnaire Alvar: Melee tank with Void Armor

Venari Marksrat: Ranged with Martyr

Venari Spellsmith: Caster with Dispel

Scavo Hireling: Support with Repair

Moxian Rebel: Caster with Weponry Training

Chaos Agent: Support

Only 28 mana available for this playdate so the plan was to pump-up Alvar, and give spell power to the support cards! I got some shivers when I've seen Venator Kinjo and Tatiana Blayde! Those two are a crazy pair, and things gonna go extreme!

I calmed down a bit after the first round, when the Gargoya Devil was shattered and Tatiana was brought to her knees! I was expecting a long night, but I was wrong! There wasn't much resistance from the other side, and no struggle either!

The others were out one by one, as Alvar was dominating the playroom. The Chaos Agent was to only one that finished early from my team, while the rest enjoyed a solid performance! See the full battle here!
