New Battle Abilities & Modifiers in Splinterlands

Hello Splinterlands Friends!

This season I mostly played frontier battle format and tried to complete my daily 15 battle tasks and in reward I got 1 pack and 3 entries. In pack, I hoped to get some high tier cards and tried to upgrade my Frontier monster cards. I upgraded my frontier summoners to level 2 & 3 and my next target is to upgrade them to max level. My monster unit cards have also upgraded to max level few higher tier cards still on lower level but I will upgrade them to max soon. I am lucky that from weekly frontier draw I won a black foil Kicking Roc Epic earth Unit mint 7. I checked the market only one card was on sale so I put this card on sale on 73$. If this card is sold then I have a plan to upgrade my other cards in frontier, rebellion and conclave Archana battle formats.

Now I am also trying to participate into guild brawl regularly. My guild's name is Scorpions, I have 8 members but no one participated in guild brawl in this season. So, I need some active splinterlands players to join my guild and participate regularly in brawl. This season my record is still looking great 9 win 0 loss. As reward I got 3 crown, 131 merit and 3.855 sps. My total points were 27 and my guild was at bottom 9th place.

So now moving forward to our today's topic. While playing my guild brawl I noticed some new Abilities & Modifiers in Splinterlands game. Like this "Collateral Damage" is a new Modifier for me, in this Modifier all units have Reckless ability. In this ability each successful attack deals 1 damage to adjacent allied units. Other two modifiers were old like "Equalizer" the initial health of all units is equal to that of the unit on either team with the highest base health. The 3rd modifier was "Shades of Gray" players only summon neutral units.

In this battle I only have 22 mana so I chose team wisely and also try to fill maximum spots. Because of my monster cards high mana I just fill 2 spots and in this I tried to pick one taunt ability card and one opportunity ability card. My plan was simple that my enemy monster card attack on my taunt card so my opportunity ability card could clear the enemy's weaker cards. In this battle I also tried to reduce my enemy health to -1 as I used "Thalgrimore" death summoner.

In this battle my strategy worked, thanks to high health of all cards. Although on every attack my cards' health reduced to -1 because of "Reckless" ability. This was a close fight but still I won in 4th round.

I just checked new Abilities & Modifiers list on Splinterlands game page. These are massive and need a lot of time to understand them. Players also need new set of cards to counter and use these Abilities & Modifiers wisely in battle.
