Hello everyone, have a nice day and good battles. This time, I'm going to analyze the units with the undead bloodline from the new reward cards (conclave arcana); there are four of them. But first, let's learn about the lore of the undead creatures in the amazing world of Splinterlands.
The undead bloodline is probably the one with the largest number of creatures of the death element.
In the modern format, there are 8 more undead units (7 from the rebellion edition and 1 from the conclave arcana edition).
And in the wild format there are many more units with the undead bloodline, as I already mentioned, most of them being from the death element. 13 undead units from the chaos legion edition.
10 undeads from the untamed edition.
9 undead units from the alpha edition. And one of them is the first undead archon, Zintar Mortalis, what beautiful memories I have using this card.
And finally, there are 12 more undead units from the beta edition. Here are 2 more undead archons: Jarlax the Undead and Crypt Mancer, beautiful and spooky cards.
Now it's the turn of the new undead units. Will they be useful in battles? Will any of them become meta? Let's find out:
Wailsworn specter
Wailsworn Specter at level 1 has the Bloodline Tribute ability, so when defeated it will grant her undead allies +1 magic attack power and +1 to all stats. At level 2, she gains the Amplify ability, which increases the damage of retaliate, corrosive ward, magic reflect, return fire and thorns for all friendly units by 1. At level 3, she gains the Weaken ability, which reduces the health of all enemies by 1. And at max level, she gains the Invigorate ability, which prevents her allies from becoming exahusted.
She has an excellent magic attack power of 3, but her health is low, as befits a true undead, so she performs best in the backline, since her last 3 abilitites work while she is alive. Only the blodline tribute is activated upon death, but in the modern format it is not so good since there is only one undead unit that can benefit from the magic attack power, which is the Demise Archon Faust. But in the wild mode, there are many magic undead that can take full advantage of it.
Cullborn Revenant
Cullborn Revenant at level 1 has the Snipe ability, so while in the backline, she will attack the first non-melee enemy unit behind the first position. At level 8, she gains +1 magic attack power, and at max level gets another ability, Spite, which allows her to attack the enemy that defeats her.
She costs 5 mana and has a magic attack power of 3, and her stats are pretty good for a common unit. Definitely, she performs best in battles where only magic units are allowed and when only units with odd mana can be summoned.
HUSK OF THE HUNTER
Husk of the hunter starts at level 1 with the Sneak ability, which allows her, while in the backline, to attack the enemy unit in the last position. At level 3, she obtains the Headwinds ability, which reduces the ranged attack power of all enemy units by 1. At level 8, she gains the Reveal ability, which allows her to reveal a camouflaged enemy unit each round. And at max level, she gains the Deflection Shroud ability, so at the start of the battle, her adjacent allies will gain the Deflect ability, therefore they won't receive damage from return fire, magic reflect, thorns, corrosive ward or blast effects.
She is the only undead ranged unit in the reward set; she has 4 ranged attack power, that's pretty good. She performs best in battles where only ranged units are available and thanks to her Deflection Shroud ability, when the blast modifier is active.
MINDLESS THRALL
Mindless Thrall starts at level 1 with the Phase ability, which allows it to evade magic attacks as they were physical attacks. At level 4, it gains the Oppress ability, which allows it to inflict double damage when attacking enemy units that have no attack power. And at max level, it gains the Relentless Strike, so its attacks will deal true damage, and when attacking units with shield, void or forcefield, it will deal +1 damage.
This is my favorite undead, as it has a magic attack power of 4, which is amazing for a rare neutral unit, and can be summoned in almost every battle. And since I like using Lorkus, it will definitely be my lineup, and I know that I will get some wins thanks to this undead card.
