Acredito que muitos de vocês tenham vivido essa experiência ao jogar Dark Souls, observando aqueles amaldiçoados a nunca morrerem, os Chosen Undeads. O estranho é quando encontramos um Chosen Undead dentro do **[Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com?ref=underlock)**, e é exatamente essa experiência que eu quero compartilhar hoje com vocês!

# <center><strong>UM DIA COMUM...</strong></center>

https://i.imgur.com/Gsi4SDu.gif

Lá estava eu caminhando em direção a mais uma partida de Splinterlands. Meus primeiros dias na liga Ouro estão sendo promissores e estou conseguindo manter uma média de vitórias aceitável para as cartas que tenho acesso. Ao iniciar uma nova partida me deparei com as seguintes regras:

https://i.imgur.com/sRXFXPt.png

Elas me levaram a montar uma composição de Fogo, elemento em que possuo as unidades de maiores leveis. O **Super Sneak** permitiu que eu escolhesse unidades com ótimas habilidades mas que não conseguiriam bater da linha de trás, formando um time extremamente resistente e com alto dano.

https://i.imgur.com/KhaLufs.png

Essa composição visava unidades tanks com vida muito elevada para lidar bem com unidades mágicas, um alto dano com o buff da invocadora Tarsa, além de algumas habilidades para lidar contra unidades físicas: https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_retaliate.png + https://i.imgur.com/2rX9Vms.png + https://i.imgur.com/qgoXFmp.png + https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_shield.png

Apesar de estar preparado para enfrentar inimigos físicos e mágicos, algo completamente inesperado aconteceu. Ao mostrar a composição do meu oponente, eu percebi que ele havia criado um **Chosen Undead**. O cavaleiro destinado a renascer de novo e de novo e de novo...

https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://i.imgur.com/a2pphso.png

# <center><strong>CHOSEN UNDEAD</strong></center>

https://i.imgur.com/D1yAaCz.png

O **[Shieldbearer](https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/untamed/Shieldbearer_lv4.png)** do oponente estava destinado a nunca morrer. Além do invocador existiam outras 4 unidades focadas totalmente em oferecer suporte ao Chosen Undead.

O cavaleiro possuía um total de 7 habilidades focadas em deixá-lo vivo, e isso é assustador!

## https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/ability_resurrect.png 3 Resurrect https://i.imgur.com/cF07UBv.png 2 Repair https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/ability_heal.png 2 Heal

https://i.imgur.com/JWKltZ1.png

Algumas observações são importantes de se fazer:

- Como o Shieldbearer possui a habilidade **Taunt** https://i.imgur.com/a7FyfRN.png não existia outra maneira de eliminar os suportes para evitar os seus efeitos, pois todas as unidades atacariam unicamente o cavaleiro.
- Ao ser revivido, a unidade retorna com apenas 1 de vida, porém a sua armadura ressurge totalmente preenchida, ou seja, Após cada ressurreição o Shieldbearer tinha uma sobrevida de 1 + 5 de armadura.
1. Ao considerarmos as curas e os reparos, ele conseguia sobreviver a uma quantidade enorme de golpes físicos antes de ser morto novamente.
2. **O maior counter dessa composição seriam unidades mágicas https://i.imgur.com/RNldeLa.png**, pois ao ignorarem a armadura do Shieldbearer, tanto o resurrect quanto o repair seriam extremamente menos efetivos.

Infelizmente eu não possuia nenhum mago no meu time, ficando fadado a ter que enfrentar o cavaleiro e derrubá-lo várias e várias vezes. E assim se sucedeu a batalha.

https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://i.imgur.com/a2pphso.png

# <center><strong>O CONFRONTO</strong></center>

Mesmo com as inúmeras curas e reparações, o meu dano era alto o suficiente para eliminar o Shieldbearer uma vez por round. Ou seja, eu precisaria de 4 rounds para terminar com ele por completo. Entretanto, o oponente possuía três unidades mágicas atacando, tornando a maioria das minhas resistências inúteis.

### <center><strong>Primeira morte!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/LycjWFU.gif

No primeiro round eu consegui matá-lo sem perder nenhuma unidade, mas a partir do segundo o alto dano dos magos começou a fazer estrago na minha composição.

### <center><strong>Segunda morte!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/Xtvd26h.gif

O segundo Resurrect foi gasto, mas nesse momento o meu Magnor já havia sido derrubado e o Forgotten One seria o próximo. Enquanto isso as minhas unidades ainda teriam que lidar com mais uma ressureição e as curas e reparações constantes.

### <center><strong>Terceira morte!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/fn7PgN5.gif

No Round 3 milagrosamente o meu Forgotten conseguiu permanecer de pé e nós tiramos a última ressureição do Bearer, agora só restava matá-lo de vez e depois cuidar de toda a sua linha de trás.

### <center><strong>Quarta e última morte!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/DvqZ6Xr.gif

Finalmente o Shieldbearer foi derrubado, mas agora duas das minhas unidades já haviam sido eliminadas, restando apenas uma linha de frente para tentar segurar os danos mágicos.

### <center><strong>Um a um, todos cairam...</strong></center>

Para assistir essa batalha completa e ver a forma como essas inúmeras habilidades foram utilizadas para tornar o Shieldbearer em um Chosen Undead, basta **[CLICAR AQUI](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_530208b658ffdd3021c1c1064dcc0b67&ref=underlock)**!

# <center><strong>CONSIDERAÇÕES FINAIS</strong></center>
Infelizmente o Molten Ogre não foi capaz de resistir aos danos mágicos, e assim todas as minhas unidades foram sendo eliminadas uma a uma. Com certeza foi um golpe de azar enorme essa batalha, pois se eu possuísse algumas unidades mágicas, as ressureições do oponente não teriam sido tão efetivas.

Além disso, as inúmeras habilidades de resistência física foram inúteis. Se tivesse optado por utilizar o **[Grum Flameblade](https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Grum%20Flameblade_lv2.png)** na linha de frente, é provável que ele tivesse ficado vivo por muito mais tempo, sem falar na possibilidade de eliminar o Shieldbearer e receber os benefícios da **Bloodlust** https://i.imgur.com/NkdHb8h.png sempre que o fizesse.

![Essa carta teria sido a linha de frente perfeita para enfrentar a composição inimiga!](https://i.imgur.com/PC7A7I9.png)

Mas apesar de ter perdido essa batalha, com certeza foi uma sensação muito prazerosa reviver os sentimentos de enfrentar um morto-vivo que nunca morre! *(a frase soa estranha, mas quem joga ou jogou Dark Souls vai entender)*

I believe many of you have had this experience playing Dark Souls, watching those cursed never to die, the Chosen Undeads. The strange thing is when we find a Chosen Undead inside **[Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com?ref=underlock)**, and that's exactly the experience I want to share with you today!

https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://i.imgur.com/a2pphso.png

# <center><strong>AN ORDINARY DAY...</strong></center>

https://i.imgur.com/Gsi4SDu.gif

There I was walking towards another game of Splinterlands. My first days in the Gold league are promising and I'm managing to maintain an acceptable win rate for the cards I have access to. When starting a new game I came across the following rules:

https://i.imgur.com/sRXFXPt.png

They led me to assemble a composition of Fire, element in which I have the highest level units. The **Super Sneak** allowed me to pick units with great abilities but that couldn't hit from the back line, forming an extremely tough team with high damage.

https://i.imgur.com/KhaLufs.png

This composition targeted tank units with very high health to deal well with magic units, a high damage with the Tarsa summoner buff, plus some abilities to deal with physical units: https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_retaliate.png + https://i.imgur.com/2rX9Vms.png + https://i.imgur.com/qgoXFmp.png + https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_shield.png

Despite being prepared to face physical and magical enemies, something completely unexpected happened. When showing my opponent's composition, I realized that he had created a **Chosen Undead**. The knight destined to be reborn again and again and again...

https://i.imgur.com/R2rIt8K.gif

https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://i.imgur.com/a2pphso.png

# <center><strong>CHOSEN UNDEAD</strong></center>

https://i.imgur.com/D1yAaCz.png

The opponent's **[Shieldbearer](https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/untamed/Shieldbearer_lv4.png)** was destined to never die. In addition to the summoner, there were 4 other units focused entirely on supporting the Chosen Undead.

The knight had a total of 7 skills focused on keeping him alive, and that's scary!

## https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/ability_resurrect.png 3 Resurrect https://i.imgur.com/cF07UBv.png 2 Repair https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/ability_heal.png 2 Heal

https://i.imgur.com/JWKltZ1.png

Some observations are important to make:

- As the Shieldbearer has the ability **Taunt** https://i.imgur.com/a7FyfRN.png there was no other way to eliminate supports to avoid their effects, as all units would only attack the knight.
- When revived, the unit returns with only 1 health, but its armor resurfaces fully filled, that is, after each resurrection the Shieldbearer had a survival of 1 + 5 armor.
1. When considering the cures and repairs, he was able to survive a huge amount of physical blows before he was killed again.
2. **The biggest counter of this composition would be magic units https://i.imgur.com/RNldeLa.png**, because by ignoring the Shieldbearer's armor, both resurrect and repair would be extremely less effective.

Unfortunately I didn't have any mage on my team, so I was doomed to have to face the knight and take him down over and over again. And so the battle took place.

https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://i.imgur.com/a2pphso.png

# <center><strong>THE BATTLE</strong></center>

Even with the numerous heals and repairs, my damage was high enough to take out the Shieldbearer once per round. That is, I would need 4 rounds to finish him completely. However, the opponent had three magic units attacking, making most of my resistances useless.

### <center><strong>First death!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/LycjWFU.gif

In the first round I managed to kill him without losing any units, but from the second the high damage from the mages started to damage my composition.

### <center><strong>Second death!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/Xtvd26h.gif

The second Resurrect was spent, but by then my Magnor had already been dropped and the Forgotten One would be next. In the meantime, my units would still have to deal with one more resurrection and the constant healing and repairs.

### <center><strong>Third death!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/fn7PgN5.gif

In Round 3 miraculously my Forgotten managed to remain standing and we took the last resurrection from the Bearer, now it only remained to kill him for good and then take care of his entire back line.

### <center><strong>Fourth and final death!</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/DvqZ6Xr.gif

Finally the Shieldbearer was taken down, but now two of my units had already been eliminated, leaving only a front line to try to hold back the magic damage.

### <center><strong>One by one, they all fell...</strong></center>
https://i.imgur.com/sG2qPCV.gif

To watch this full battle and see how these countless abilities were used to turn the Shieldbearer into a Chosen Undead, just **[CLICK HERE](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_530208b658ffdd3021c1c1064dcc0b67&ref=underlock)** !

https://images.hive.blog/0x0/https://i.imgur.com/a2pphso.png

# <center><strong>FINAL CONSIDERATIONS</strong></center>
Unfortunately the Molten Ogre was not able to withstand the magic damage, and so all my units were being eliminated one by one. It was certainly a huge stroke of bad luck this battle, because if I had some magic units, the opponent's resurrections wouldn't have been as effective.

Also, the numerous physical resistance skills were useless. Had he chosen to use the **[Grum Flameblade](https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/cards_by_level/chaos/Grum%20Flameblade_lv2.png)** on the frontline, chances are he would have stayed alive for much longer time, not to mention the ability to eliminate Shieldbearer and receive the benefits of **Bloodlust** https://i.imgur.com/NkdHb8h.png whenever you do.

![This letter would have been the perfect front line to face the enemy composition!](https://i.imgur.com/PC7A7I9.png)

But despite having lost that battle, it sure was a very pleasant feeling to relive the feelings of facing an undead that never dies! *(the phrase sounds strange, but anyone who plays or played Dark Souls will understand)*
