Hello Splinterfans!

It took me some time, but finally I got myself a Runi. I really wanted to get one when they were launched but I was hesitating too long and thinking about gas fees on ETH, which are crazy just for moving jpegs around on a PoS chain.

However, I finally decided to just get on with it and get my Runi and I am glad I did. Once I had bought it on OpenSea and added to my Metamask wallet, it was pretty quick and easy to assign to my account. You need to pay gas fees to do that too.

In the manage Runi screen you can then get an overview of your Runi. Here you can see that it costs 6 mana with some really useful abilities like opportunity, rebirth, true strike and reflection shield. The great thing about him too is that it is a neuteral monster, so you can play him in all splinters.

Next I needed to try and think how I would use him in battle. At first I was not sure, but I seem to think of him as a more advanced Deeplurker with his extra abilities and you can use him with all splinters, like here with the light splinter.
