WHY GRAMEL THE HUNGER A TOP TIER CARD

Hello Splintermates and fellow Hiveans,

Conclave Arcana presale has now long pass and now a general sale is ongoing.
Conclave Arcana set has now the newest modern ranked family and now conclave arcana sets already tried in the battlefield and some already had conquered some. In here i want to share why i rated gramel the hunger as one of my favorite and share some of its battle.

WHY GRAMEL THE HUNGER IS A TOP TIER CARD

Gramel the hunger is the legendary promo card awarded to those who participated in the conclave arcana presale. It is also given as the raffle rewards with the different foil types including the one and only black foil type.

REASON 01 : ONLY FEW PLAYERS OWNED IT

A. Only one player owned the black foil arcane gramel the hunger. It is owned by @hanv . He was become the sole owner of the legendary promo card the one and only black foil arcane gramel the hunger.

B. Only five players owned the gold foil arcane gramel the hunger. This are owned by @cryptomancer , @vugtis , @jmaan , @blockgaming and @m3ll0n .

C. Only ten players owned the black foil gramel the hunger. This are owned by @tdmdaddy, @nonnyel013 , @yggspl-pool , @navorn, @glzisk, @nynate, @lovingthemoo, @shermanator1974 , @dratek and @flowless .

REASON 02 : THE PRICE - "THE ONLY ONE CARDS "

As a collector and once a bored whale start accumulating those rare cards or the only one. You know the price will be most can not imagine. But let's look at what are the list price now. But before that let's take a look at the reaction of the only one . https://x.com/HanV/status/1922447313592602718

Now black foil gramel the hunger is listed at 3,999.00 USD. While the only one black foil arcane gramel the hunger was once listed @ 30,000.00 USD.
Imagine that when a bored whale come and start buying those. The price might be sold at higher price to the 3rd owner.

REASON 03 : HOW OTHER RATED GRAMEL THE HUNGER

The whale @bravetofu rated gramel the hunger as S the highest rated he give to the conclave arcana legendary cards. See details on his blog: https://peakd.com/hive-13323/@bravetofu/conclave-arcana-tier-list-legendary-cards

REASON 04 : MY REASONS

I rated the legendary promo card gramel the hunger as the top tier conclave arcana card because of many reasons. First it is neutral where you can use most of the games whatever element you favor unless it is a no neutral ruleset. Second is it has a triple attack 2 melee attack, 2 ranged attack and 2 magic attack at maxed level. The one that makes the melee works at any position is because of its abilities, charge - where it can use melee attack at any position, scattershot where ranged and magic can can attack any random unit, relentless strike - attacks deal true damage. +1 damage if the opponent has shiled, void or forcefield, shapeshift - treated as all bloodlines and camouflage - can not be directly targeted unless it is at the first position.

GRAMEL THE HUNGER ON THE MODERN RANKED BATTLES

In here i am going to share one specific battle plus some battle links:

THE BATTLE:

This battle is against a fully maxed opponent while my gramel the hunger is at level 2 but still managed to illuminate 3 monster.

POSITIONING:

My positioning is to put Drybone megalodon as the tank, Drybone hobdoblin as 2nd becaus of its reach, Lord thanalor as third to provide as 2nd tank , 4th is gramel the hunger and 5th is blackmoor nymph and thunderhoof nomad.

ARCHON (Previously called summoner) : Risqruel Drath

UNIT 1	UNIT 2	UNIT 3	UNIT 4	UNIT 5 & 6
Drybone megalodon	Drybone Hobgoblin	Lord Thanalor	Gramel the hunger	Blackmoor nymph & Thunderhoof nomad

STRATEGY:

With stampede, Noxious Fumes and Born again ruleset. My choice of archon is to used Risqruel Drath that is to take advantage of its redemption - to cause damage to opponent once it is deffeated specially with the reborn ruleset. Then use Drybone megalodon as tank for its thorns and retaliate. Then units or monster with immunity like drybone hobgoblin and blackmoor nypmh. Then i used lord thanalor as for 3rd position that will serve as 2nd tank specially for its scavenger ability . Then add thunderhoof nomad for its streghten and triage ability then the gramel the hunger in the middle as i will expect this to be the remaining monster after the final battle . Lord thanalor will help him to stay longer while thunderhoof nomad would restore some of its health.
