Splinterlands | Return Fire Ability | Ranged Attacker Becomes the Attacked! Splinterlands | Return Fire The return fire ability is one of the rules in the new iteration of the game. The rule simply means that all ranged attackers will be attacked back half of their attack value. This is similar to the reflection rule for magic attacks. Whether it is the reflection or the return fire rule, I find it amusing that it is so easy to circumvent the rule. I mean, if the return fire…

Splinterlands | Divine Shield, Earthquake and Health Equalizer Rule in Play | Did I Win? Splinterlands | Concoction of Rules! Every now and then, we encounter an exciting battle that gets our attention. Here is one such battle that came up in the Gold League and for once I went against a human rather than a bot. Nothing against bots as they still allow game-making but they sometimes seem a bit dumb. So, a human opponent is always welcome. This battle was particularly…
Splinterlands | Only 5 Rule | Don’t Even Think of the Sixth Splinterlands | New Rule One of the rules that has been forever on Splinterlands is the mini-monster rule. The rule allows only monsters with four mana or lesser to be taken into the battle. So, even if we have a 100-mana cap for the battle, all we can take in is four mana monsters for each slot. Imagine how funny the mana cap contrasting the mini-monster rule would have been. While the mini-monster rule was funny,…

It took me some time, and here is how I went about it. Let’s see how. Starting Up The original picture, as I had. Then, I added the…
Splinterlands | Fog of War | | Reach Works | Ambush Doesn't Splinterlands | Fog of War Fog of War is one of my favorite rules and is also one that has changed. When this rule was first introduced, only sneak and snipe wouldn’t work and opportunity ability continued to work. However, now all three abilities become non-functional under the fog-of-war rule. This is the change. The fun of the rule is not in the knowledge of what happens but in players forgetting how to load…
