### **Translated by [ChatGPT](https://chat.openai.com/ "chatgpt")**.

I remember making a post discussing the **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png ability before it was actually released in **[Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com?ref=underlock "splinterlands")**. At that time, I had doubts about whether it would be a truly good ability, but today I can affirm that it is one of the best support abilities in the game.

Amplifying all the statistics of two adjacent cards is a very strong effect that can create a huge snowball effect if applied to the right cards. To use it in the best possible way, it is ideal to combine the positioning of your cards with rules that will ensure they are eliminated first. Some basic examples of combat rules that can favor the choice of cards with the **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png ability are:

<center>https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_target-practice_150.png https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_equal-opportunity_150.png</center>

In these two cases, you can strategically position your **Venari Marksrat** or the **Fungus Flinger** to be the first focus of enemy attacks, allowing them to be eliminated and activate the effect of the ability to favor two allies. However, it's not only these rules that can collaborate with this strategy.

<center>https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_noxious-fumes_150.png https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_earthquake_150.png https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/23xyXJFXpmzjG3M3SuBemg7J6xmKR2tNU3ZXLANFGfVVndXkZtXS5QYkk1vYgMUn4ZhMj.png</center>

The first two rules will eliminate your cards over the rounds, and potentially, the activation of **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png will benefit your allies. For this to work correctly, the other cards need to be very resilient, so it is important to have a lot of mana available in these rules to build a robust composition. **Born Again** https://i.imgur.com/uNZ99Ih.png allows this effect to be applied twice, making it much more effective. If this rule comes together with one of the other four mentioned, you have a great incentive to create this combo and amplify the power of your cards monstrously.

Today, I participated in a battle with the rule **Equal Opportunity** https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/splinterlands/images/f/f4/Combat-rule_equal-opportunity.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/25?cb=20210209072022 and with plenty of mana available. So, I decided to create a composition focused on buffing two cards and making them unbeatable on the field. Let's see if this strategy worked.

<center>[![Battle.](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/23uFKKj7WkYnraqRnGzWqjUmq2dbYVHzibc1yuhPGPo1ZcfiSASv4v4nABRa958n1YnYb.png)](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_b105638fe6345e1bd0c1f8f32d673abe&ref=underlock)</center>

Note that the card with the lowest Life on my team is the **Venari Marksrat**, so I was sure he would be the first card to die. Knowing this, I chose the **Adelade Brightwing** because of the **Resurrect** https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_resurrect.png, which would allow the double application of buffs on adjacent cards, and I trusted that they would have enough strength to carry the game.

But of course, I didn't choose just any card, right? The **Jared Scar**, besides having high damage, has the ability to pierce armor with the **Piercing** https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_piercing.png ability and can become stronger after each kill with **Bloodlust** https://i.imgur.com/NkdHb8h.png. The **Drybone Raider**, in addition to being able to break the opponent's armor with the **Shatter** https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/AK7w4vZQEmVeVumisniZYy9oeCnWCeenwcLDjGTtQikWzdLr4CkyCSwqtouVKpL.png ability, performs four attacks per round. Remember that each application of **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png will result in +2 damage for this card *(totaling +4 damage after the two applications)*.

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/23tSPsQsRx3aVVSy81NRTknRCJCVgapSP3C7g2BY7jpEkhmbTS87y2bCQw6S42hXuRJtr.png

Do they seem strong enough to carry a game, right? Without much difficulty, these two cards completely overwhelmed the enemy team, showing that this strategy can really work with great competence if applied correctly. Have you been using the **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png ability frequently? And what have you thought of it since it was implemented? Share your opinions in the comments!

Eu lembro que fiz uma postagem falando sobre a habilidade **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png antes dela ser de fato lançada no **[Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com?ref=underlock "splinterlands")** e na época eu tinha dúvidas se seria uma habilidade realmente boa, mas hoje posso afirmar que é uma das melhores habilidades de suporte que existem no jogo.

Amplifificar todas as estatísticas de duas cartas adjacentes é um efeito muito forte e que pode criar um efeito snowball enorme se aplicado nas cartas corretas. Para utilizá-la da melhor forma possível o ideal é que você combine o posicionamento das suas cartas com regras que vão garantir que elas sejam eliminadas primeiro. Alguns exemplos básicos de regras de combate que podem favorecem a escolha das cartas com a habilidade **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png são:

<center>https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_target-practice_150.png https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_equal-opportunity_150.png</center>

Nesses dois casos você pode posicionar estrategicamente seu **Venari Marksrat** ou a **Fungus Flinger** para serem o primeiro foco dos ataques inimigos, permitindo que elas sejam eliminadas e ativem o efeito da habilidade para favorecer dois aliados, mas não são apenas essas regras que podem colaborar com essa estratégia.

<center>https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_noxious-fumes_150.png https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/icons/rulesets/new/img_combat-rule_earthquake_150.png https://images.hive.blog/100x100/https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/23xyXJFXpmzjG3M3SuBemg7J6xmKR2tNU3ZXLANFGfVVndXkZtXS5QYkk1vYgMUn4ZhMj.png</center>

As duas primeiras regras irão eliminar ao longo das rodadas suas cartas e potencialmente a ativação da **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png beneficiará seus aliados, mas para que isso funcione corretamente as outras cartas precisam ser bem resistentes, por isso é importante que haja muita mana disponível nessas regras para que você monte uma composição bem parruda. Já a **Born Again** https://i.imgur.com/uNZ99Ih.png permite que esse efeito seja aplicado duas vezes tornando-o muito mais efetivo. Se essa regra vier em conjunto com uma das outras 4 citadas, você tem um grande incentivo para criar este combo e amplificar de forma monstruosa o poder das suas cartas.

Hoje eu participei de uma batalha com a regra **Equal Opportunity** https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/splinterlands/images/f/f4/Combat-rule_equal-opportunity.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/25?cb=20210209072022 e com bastante mana disponível, então decidi criar uma composição focada em buffar dois cartas e deixá-las imbatíveis no campo, vamos acompanhar se essa estratégia deu certo.

<center>[![Batalha.](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/23uFKKj7WkYnraqRnGzWqjUmq2dbYVHzibc1yuhPGPo1ZcfiSASv4v4nABRa958n1YnYb.png)](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_b105638fe6345e1bd0c1f8f32d673abe&ref=underlock)</center>

Observe que a carta de menor Vida do meu time é o **Venari Marksrat** então eu tinha a certeza de que ele seria a primeira carta a morrer. Sabendo disso eu escolhi a **Adelade Brightwing** por causa do **Resurect** https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_resurrect.png que permitiria a dupla aplicação dos buffs nas cartas adjacentes e confiei que elas teriam força suficiente para carregar a partida.

Mas é claro que eu não escolhi qualquer carta né? O **Jared Scar** além de possuir um alto dano tem a capacidade de trespassar armaduras com a habilidade **Piercing** https://d36mxiodymuqjm.cloudfront.net/website/abilities/small/ability_piercing.png e pode se tornar mais forte após cada abate com o **Bloodlust** https://i.imgur.com/NkdHb8h.png. Já a **Drybone Raider** além de poder quebrar a armadura do oponente com a habilidade **Shatter** https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/AK7w4vZQEmVeVumisniZYy9oeCnWCeenwcLDjGTtQikWzdLr4CkyCSwqtouVKpL.png ela realiza quatro ataques por rodada, lembrando que cada aplicação do **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png resultará em +2 de dano para esta carta *(totalizando +4 de dano após as duas aplicações)*.

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/underlock/23tSPsQsRx3aVVSy81NRTknRCJCVgapSP3C7g2BY7jpEkhmbTS87y2bCQw6S42hXuRJtr.png

Eles parecem fortes o suficiente para carregar uma partida não é mesmo? Sem muitas dificuldades essas duas cartas atropelaram completamente o time inimigo, mostrando que essa estratégia realmente pode funcionar com muita competência se aplicada da maneira correta. Você têm utilizado com frequência a habilidade **Martyr** https://i.imgur.com/l9IllIK.png ? E o que tem achado dela desde que foi implementada? Compartilhe suas opiniões nos comentários!
