Hello Friends,

A happy Friday too all the Splinterlands players!!! It's almost a weekend and I am sure everyone will have something planned already.
Sadly, it will be a working day for me this Saturday and I am gonna lose much of my Saturday working on my office works.
Ok, let's keep that aside and enjoy the recent updates on Splinterlands. Survival Mode, Leaderboard rewards, Land 1.75 update expected soon, Conclave Arcana is shaping up well and we have our beloved @davemccoy as our COO.
Oh, so exciting!! and I am always looking forward to weekend so that, I could play more battles manually.
I am sharing a 12 MANA cost battle for this week's Social Media Challenge as share the lineup and battle details below.
It was some good battle with born again rule set and all the monsters getting resurrect was something good and helped Doctor Blight have those extra health to win the battle for me.

Battle and Lineup:

As I said, it was a 12 MANA cost battle and 4 MANA was spent of Obsidian summoner and in the remaining 8 MANA, Doctor Blight and Djinn Biljka covered 7 with Halfling Refuge taking that remaining 1 MANA cost with Fungus Fiend as a Zero MANA cost monster covering one more of those slots.
The lineup is as below.

Lineup:

1. Halfling Refugee:

Used this in the front position as it is a healing monster for me now with upgrade to level 3 and for 1 MANA cost, it gives 3 melee attack and health is decent too with 6 health.
As resurrect on, I knew that it will hold the front position for some time and that was helpful in winning the battle.

2. Fungus Fiend:

Just to delay exposing the Doctor Blight and Djinn Biljka, I used this monster in Second position as it is also with slow ability to reduce the speed of monsters used by my opponent.
The resurrect was good with this monster too as it helped to remove one of those monsters use by opponent.

3. Doctor Blight:

I think out of all the monsters used by me and by my opponent, this is the more powerful one considering it's scavenger ability as each resurrect is going to give this monster an additional health.
This monster with it's magic attack and also poisoning and scavenger abilities, was the pick of the monsters for this battle.
It's affliction ability is another added bonus as it stops a monster from healing.
Anytime I used this monsters, I am almost certain I will win that!!!!

4. Djinn Biljka:

Lastly, used this 3 MANA 3 magic attack monster which is with weaken and magic void abilities.
This is always a nice monster for low MANA cost or normal MANA cost battles as it is a camouflage ability monsters, it can always escape the sneak and snipe attacks!!

The 12 MANA battle such as this one isn't gonna be fun as it will be a tense one and this battle wasn't different, there were tensions all thru the battle, but resurrect abilities for all monsters means, I was on safer side with Doctor Blight keep on piling it's health.
As soon as I saw that there are no healing monsters used by opponent, I always felt I have the advantage in this battle and that was true.
Here I a sharing few screenshots from the battle!!!!

That was obviously One of the nice battles I would say considering just 12 MANA for the battle.
I think my opponent not using Doctor Blight was a plus for me as the health is always gonna be a deciding factor in such low MANA cost battles and Doctor Blight staying alive means I was always gonna win this battle.
The survival mode is encouraging One, I could win back to back matches for almost like 6 or 7, but then I lost a bunch of those to lose some of those best monsters and summoners I have. So, I didn't play anymore survival mode battles today, but I am definitely gonna set some do's and don'ts and then start playing it again!!!
Planning to complete so many things over this coming weekend and one of those activities will be to explore on DEC and SPS like which will gonna be more effective in buying Conclave Arcana packs as many are already saying it going to be DEC.
I will be back soon with another one.
Until that, keep playing, keep blogging, see you soon friends :)

Thanks and Have a good day :)
