Regular cards sometimes are the best option (EN-ES)
Hello Splinterlands friends, these last weeks I am dedicating to play Splinterlands tournaments.
In them we can get good rewards in addition to learning to play against opponents of all kinds.
In today's post I'm going to tell you about one of those battles in which everything was against me but I ended up winning in a masterful way.
Hola amigos de Splinterlands, estas últimas semanas las estoy dedicando a jugar torneos de Splinterlands.
En ellos podemos conseguir buenas recompensas además de aprender a jugar contra oponentes de todo tipo.
En el post de hoy voy a hablaros de una de esas batallas en las que todo estaba en mi contra pero que terminé ganando de forma magistral.
Regular cards are sometimes the best option
In many occasions we go crazy looking for legendary cards in our collection to select them in a combat without stopping to think that there are common or rare cards that can be of more help and give us better results.
That's what happened to me in this match in which I decided to use rare and common cards after thinking a lot about the strategy.
Due to the conditions of the combat, I was sure that my opponent would play with the Splinter Earth and all my strategy was focused on trying to avoid his magic attacks.
En muchas ocasiones nos volvemos locos por buscar entre nuestra colección cartas legendarias para seleccionarlas en un combate sin pararnos a pensar que hay cartas comunes o raras que pueden sernos de más ayuda y darnos mejores resultados.
Eso es lo que me sucedió en este combate en el que me decanté por usar cartas raras y comunes después de mucho pensar en la estrategia.
Debido a las condiciones del combate, tenía claro que mi oponente jugaría con el Splinter Tierra y toda mi estrategia estaba enfocada en intentar evitar sus ataques mágicos.
The Combat
Just by looking at my opponent's cards I could already imagine that the fight was not going to be easy. In addition, the Splintertools tool gave me only a 14% chance of winning the match. I think everything was against me. So without hope I started to watch the fight. And the following happened:
Solo al ver las cartas de mi oponente ya me imaginaba que el combate no iba a resultar sencillo. Además la herramienta Splintertools me daba únicamente un 14% de probabilidad de ganar el combate. Creo que todo estaba en mi contra. Así que sin esperanza me puse a ver el combate. Y sucedió lo siguiente:
 | vs. Death | Briar Patch |
 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
|---|
My strategy was going to be simple, as a summoner I selected Grandmaster Rathe since I sensed that my opponent would play with magic attack creatures. Also thanks to the combat condition Briar Patch if I used melee attack creatures I would suffer double damage from the Thorns thanks to the summoner's Amplify.
Next were to come low mana cost creatures Vulguine, Soul Fiend, Pelacor Conjurer, Celestial Harpy, Pelacor Arbalest and Time Mage.
My enemy played with very powerful cards, as a summoner he chose Obsidian. Then Fungus Fiend, Lord Arianthus, Swamp Thing, Queen Mycelia, Doctor Blight, Djinn Biljka. All legendary cards and one epic.
And as it turned out, the match was really easy. The Target Practice condition made all his creatures attack Pelacor Conjurer and thanks to his Magic Reflect he returned the attacks doing double damage thanks to Amplify from the summoner. So little by little his creatures were eliminated by his own attacks while Pelacor Arbalest mercilessly hit the opponent's creatures.
Finally in a few turns I was able to achieve a victory that at first glance seemed impossible to reach.
Mi estrategia iba a ser sencilla, de invocador seleccioné a Grandmaster Rathe ya que intuía que mi oponente jugaría con criaturas de ataque mágico. Además gracias a la condición de combate Briar Patch si usaba criaturas de ataque cuerpo a cuerpo sufriría el doble de daño de las Thorns gracias al Amplify del invocador.
Después iban a venir criaturas de bajo coste de maná Vulguine, Soul Fiend, Pelacor Conjurer, Celestial Harpy, Pelacor Arbalest y Time Mage.
Mi enemigo jugó con cartas muy poderosas, de invocadora eligió a Obsidian. Después Fungus Fiend, Lord Arianthus, Swamp Thing, Queen Mycelia, Doctor Blight, Djinn Biljka. Todo cartas legendarias y una épica.
Y resulto que el combate fue realmente sencillo. La condición Target Practice hacía que todas sus criaturas atacaran a Pelacor Conjurer y gracias a su Magic Reflect devolvía los ataques haciendo el doble de daño gracias a Amplify del invocador. Así que poco a poco sus criaturas fueron eliminadas por sus propios ataques mientras Pelacor Arbalest golpeaba sin piedad las criaturas del rival.
Finalmente en pocos turnos pude conseguir una victoria que a simple vista parecía imposible de alcanzar.
Conclusion
Many times we complicate our lives looking for the best and rarest cards we have in our collection without stopping to think and select the most useful ones.
It often happens to me that I take for granted that the legendary card is the one that will solve the combat when in reality a common or rare card can improve my strategy. That is why it is very important in Splinterlands not to get carried away by the desire to use our legendary cards and use our common sense to select those cards that we really believe are ideal for use in combat.
Muchas veces nos complicamos la vida buscando las mejores y más raras que tenemos en nuestra colección sin pararnos a pensar y seleccionar las más útiles.
A mi suele pasar que doy por sentado que la carta legendaria es la que me va a resolver el combate cuando en realidad una carta común o rara puede mejorar mi estrategia. Por eso es muy importante en Splinterlands no dejarnos llevar por las ganas de usar nuestras cartas legendarias y utilizar nuestro sentido común para seleccionar aquellas cartas que en realidad creamos son ideales para usar en el combate.

This is a great composition against magic attacks, it is hard for me to see Pelacor Conjurer at this level using his Reflect ability, the composition would be unbeatable if he got some monster with the Silence ability to diminish all the enemy's magic attack.
