My scribble art for this week contest.
The Shock Trooper is a powerful fighter card in Splinterlands, especially good for battles where you need a strong and fearless warrior in the front line. This card looks like a super soldier, ready for war, covered in heavy armor and carrying big weapons. When you see it on the battlefield, you know it means business.
Shock Trooper is a melee attacker, which means it fights enemies up close using physical attacks. It doesn’t use magic or ranged attacks. It belongs to the Neutral splinter, which makes it super useful because you can use it in battles with almost any team. That makes it very flexible and easy to include in many different battle plans.
It’s also a high mana card. That means it costs more to use in a battle, but that’s because it brings a lot of power with it. So, you’ll most likely use it in battles that allow you to use a lot of mana points like 30 or more.

Shock Trooper deals strong melee damage. It hits hard and can take down enemy monsters quickly if not stopped. This is one of its biggest strengths. If you’re trying to get rid of the enemy’s front line tank fast, Shock Trooper can help with that.
The coolest thing about Shock Trooper: it has the Double Strike ability. That means it attacks two times in one round instead of just once. So if Shock Trooper normally does 3 melee damage.
Double Strike is also useful because if the first hit misses or gets blocked, there’s a second chance to hit. And if both hit, the damage stacks up quickly. This makes Shock Trooper a threat to almost any monster it faces.
PROOF OF OWNERSHIP
Shock Trooper has moderate to high health depending on its level, so it can survive for a few rounds. While it’s not the tankiest card in the game, it’s still pretty tough. If you put it behind a real tank like a monster with Shield or Void, Shock Trooper can stay safe and do a lot of damage over time.
At higher levels, it has reasonable speed, meaning it can often hit before slower enemies. This is important because going first can sometimes decide who wins the battle especially when both sides are strong.
Even though Shock Trooper is strong, it has a few weaknesses:
Since it’s a melee attacker, it can only fight from the first position unless there’s a special rule or ability in play like Melee Mayhem or Sneak. So you’ll often need to place it either at the front or wait for it to move forward after other cards are defeated.
Most versions of Shock Trooper don’t have armor. That means every hit it takes goes straight to its health. You can help protect it by using other cards that give armor or heal.
Shock Trooper focuses only on attacking. It doesn’t heal itself or block attacks. So it works best with support cards that can heal, protect, or buff it.
Best Ways to Use Shock Trooper
• Use it in Melee Mayhem or Super Sneak battles where melee attackers can fight from any position.
• Pair it with a tank that can take the damage while Shock Trooper deals the hits.
• Combine it with cards that boost melee damage or speed that makes the double strike even more dangerous.
Shock Trooper is a simple but powerful card. It’s all about damage and pressure. If you need a card that can hit fast and hard, this is a great choice especially in battles where big melee monsters shine. Just make sure to protect it, and it will do its job.
