**Hi!** @saydie here playing **Splinterlands** everyday.

This is **Exploring the Chaos** where I take a look on **Chaos Legion** and now also the **Riftwatchers** cards, as they brought new abilities that changes how we play the game.

The last **Chaos Legion** ability that I tackle would be **[Forcefield](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=32)**, an ability that reduce all attacks that are 5 or more to only 1 and which is similar to [Taunt](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=32) or [Void](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=12). The next ability that I am going to discuss is the **Rebirth ability**.

**Prons**

* After the ability was used, negative status effects such as [Poison](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=64) will be [Cleanse](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=25).

* Ability was separated from [Ressurect](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=13) so it can be used when together with **Rebirth**.

**Cons**

* Monster with **Rebirth** ability will return to the field with only 1 health, making easy target for [Opportunity](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=31).

* [Snare](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=35) and [Cripple](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=51) abilities stick to the monster even after using the self- resurrect and cleansed of other negative effects.
<br>

**Rebirth** is a self- [Ressurect](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=13) ability that allows the card to revive itself after it was defeated. Negative status effects are then removed aside from [Snare](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=35) and [Cripple](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=51) but at the same time, the monster will only have 1 health. Currently, the only monster with the **Rebirth** ability was **Runi** which was a promo card and is the very first generative NFT for the game.

**Lore**

<blockquote>

*For generations upon generations, the Riftwatchers have pursued the Chaos Legion across realms and seen them drained of magic by the dark god, Uul. They collected the cast-off dregs of war, repurposing what they could salvage into weapons, gathering their strength and building an arsenal for the day when they would face off against their enemy.*

*One such weapon is the runicore, or “runi” as it is also known.*

*The runi is a collection of spare parts gathered by the Riftwatchers’ junkers: armor, clothing, corpses, and anything else that can serve as a body; weapons that range from axes, swords, and polearms to fish, sweets, and rabbits; anything–literally anything–a technomancer might be able to repurpose into a power core and infuse the runi with life; and, sometimes, a warhelm or jaunty headgear to give the runi a personal touch.*

*The Riftwatchers are not without a sense of humor, and there’s nothing quite as satisfying as thumbing one’s nose at the legions of Chaos by sending a relentless magical construct with a pert foolscap atop its head against them.*

*The junker brings their spare parts to the rune crafters, who inscribe the parts with runic symbols. Technomancers infuse these runes with techno-magic, binding the parts together and instilling the runi with life. With that done, all that’s left is to point the implacable little construct at the enemy and tell it to kill.*

*And kill it does.* [Continue Reading](https://splinterlands.com/?p=card_details_runi&id=505&gold=false&edition=2&tab=lore)...

**Runi** is a Legendary Promo melee card for the Neutral Element with the new ability **Rebirth** which allows this card to return after it was defeated with only 1 health it also has [Opportunity](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=31) at level 1 so that it can attack the monster with the lowest health regardless of the position, [True Strike](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=56) at level 2 so that all of it's attacks won't miss and the [Reflection Shield](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=95) ability at level 3 so reflected and indirect damage does not hurt this card.

**Runi's** can only be bought and sold on Etherium Network either through **ETH** or **WETH** and prices vary on each of their unique characteristics. Rental for this card is currently not supported by the game. As for the ones that I am using, this is how he looks and stats.

This is a 17 Mana Cap battle where  melee monster will received when they attack a monster and the slowest monster gets to attack first. I choose the summoner **Aquatus** for a water team because it gives the [Backfire](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=91) that will deal -2 damage on a opponent when they miss their target and despite not having the [Reflection](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=95) shielded ability yet, I pic **Runi** for it is slow with armor and even if it dies, it will revived and can at least attack twice. At the final round, after delivering the final blow on **Silent Sha-vi**, **Runi** also lost it's health but was able to came back after using **Rebirth**

For this battle, the use of range monsters was banned while reflected damage were amplified, I use the summoner **Kelya Frendul** as my summoner as it increases the speed of all ally monsters and gives +1 armor, I used **Runi** and placed it at the 3<suprd</sup> position to be a target of [Opportunity](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=31). During Round 2, **Runi** was defeated by the combined attack and [Poison](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=64) of **Deeplurker** then after using **Rebirth**, the  [Poison](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=64) was also removed.

For this battle, magic attack needs to go through armor first and all monsters were poisoned at the start of the battle. I choose the summoner **Thadious Broor** of the death element as my summoner since it reduce the  health of the opponent and has monsters with either [Heal](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=7) or [Immunity](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=52) but I also added **Runi** on the team since the **Rebirth** will cleanse the [Poison](https://www.splintercards.com/abilities.php?ab=64). During the start of round 3, **Runi** got defeated due to poison and after that, got ressurected with **Rebirth**, the negative status effect were removed.

## Final Thoughts

</center>
___

<div class="text-justify">

**Rebirth** was currently exclusive on **Runi** as of this moment and I don't think that many of this will be created and only during exclusive cards but it's ability to self-resurrect was such an interesting ability and allows the cards have a second life and a chance to flip the result of the battle.
