It’s time for another Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge, and this week, we’re focusing on knowledge-sharing! The community is full of experts and seasoned players, and there's no better way to learn than reading wisdom!
I joined Splinterlands four years ago but I am considering myself a decent player. It was a roller-coaster of fun, but the amount of information I had to assimilate was insane! Now it's time to share some knowledge! My fair share of battling, trading, and exploring the Splinterlands universe started on 26th of December 2021, but I can say I've been around for enough to consider myself an OG player!
Splinterlands stands out as a pioneering title in the blockchain gaming landscape, blending fun, strategy, and the benefits of decentralization. It is remarkable because of the blockchain integration, accessibility and unique gameplay.
How you play it? You try to create the most optimal 7-card deck, using the available cards, and fight against opponents. More wins will bring more Glint, which can be used at the shop for cards, potions or even titles! My main advice is to aim to be better, and keep up with the updates! Read, learn, play and engage with the people. New cards bring new synergy and new tactics!
What's Glint? The new currency for ranked play, which can be used in the shop to buy all kind of stuff. You earn Glint daily depending on the wins, and then a big bunch at the end of the season... based on the overall performance!
Fight and win throughout the season to earn Glint, and improve your deck. You will earn Glint with every win, and another batch at the end of the season. Use it wisely!
How much time I spend in the amazing Splinterlands universe? Between 30 minutes and one hour per day, mostly making sure my energy never reaches 50! Playing the game never consumes a significant part of your day, as I balance it with many other activities.
Don't worry about the gap between veterans and new players. The Rebellion lowered the gap between OGs and newbies, as the new cards and abilities destroyed the old strategies!

What have I managed to achieve so far? I reached Champion III tier and completed my goal of opening 100 Chaos Legion packs! Epic battles? There's been several but this one is my all-time favorite!
You could also unleash the power of the Rebellion's legends! Each exclusive promo card celebrates a character who played a pivotal role in the rebellion. Now, they'll pay a pivotal role on your team in the arena! Own a piece of history and dominate your opponent with these iconic heroes!
I still love the game after all this years! Why? Because it's always explolving... and it's always so random... and against all odds! This is the story of the crazy mushroom that lived to tell the story! Battling a golden foil Djinn Muriat is an insane challange... winning against a golden foil Djinn Muriat is science fiction!
But against all odds... a small fungus creature managed the unbelievable! This is how this little funguy stayed alive when everyone thought it dead!
Obsidian: +1 Magic Power to friendly casters
Legionnaire Alvar: Melee with Void Armor
Madcap Magus: Caster with Life Leech and Scattershot
Legionnaire Alvar got cripple with every attack the suffered, and his insane armor stats were almost useless against all those magical creatures. Even if the spells where hitting his armor, his health was getting lower and lower. Meanwhile, the Madcap Magus was gathering strenght and health! No one could predict what was yet to come!
Alvar was facing his demise with honor, and it was half-way through the fourth round when Muriat delivered the deadly blow! The Madcap Magus has turned into a lonely tank, and was ready for a battle that will be told for eons.
One magical mushroom against an all-mighty djinn and his lapdogs, the Cursed Slimeball and the Life Sapper. It looked like a flawless victory for my opponent .... but there's always luck and random.
The Madcap Magus was standing alone, with four health and a little armor... while the enemies were laughing! He could take down Djinn Muriat... maybe... but what about the others?
The Life Sapper shot and crippled the Magus, but he retaliated and sent Muriat into the void. It still looked fair and square right now... but the battle was far from over!
The Cursed Slimeball had it's turn, dealing damage and crippling the Magus... again! The Madcap was mad indeed... and his spell ignored the Slimeball armor. The deadly blow and life leech led to a one v one duel with the Life Sapper, which was already on six health!
And now was the moment that the bards sung about for generations! The beggining of the end for the Life Sapper, and how a little mushroom turned the tides of the battle in his favor through perpetual Life Leech. You will say that the Sapper has this ability as well, plus Cripple on top of that, but this is how legends are born.
What happened next is both suprprising and poetical, as the Madcap Magus supperior damage would slowly bring the Sapper down. This victory was also fueled by Obsidian's boost, that avoided a draw by fatigue!
It was like an endless cycle of hatred for rounds, with the Life Sapper spell crippling the Magus to one health and then the mushroom dude raising his health back after his attack. The only difference was made by the extra magical damage, and few round later it was clear that the battle was reaching the endgame!
The end is near... said every Doomsayer ever! But this time this call was for the Life Sapper! Mid-way through the twelve round ... it happened! The cycle of hatred was broken and the Madcap Magus sent the abomination to eternal peace! See the full battle here!
Splinterlands isn't just a game... it's a dynamic universe that has the potential to shape and transform lives. My honest advice is to enjoy the game and build up your deck. Dream big but don't get upset if you don't win many battles.
