New Player Look For Advice!!

in Splinterlands4 years ago

Hi, I'm Cerlant. ^.^
I am starting my journey in this world called Splinterlands. I have like 4-5 days playing and WOW this is SO FUN, however I am stuck in bronze II and want advice on what to do next. On my first day I bought a pack and got this:

1 Legendary, 2 Rare and 1 gold foiled common card... not bad for the first time right?

Today I bought another pack and got these cards:

Another legendary, 2 rare and 2 common cards, no gold one this time.

Now in 2 days the season ends and I want to do better than Bronze II next time, I have 6000 DEC to spend buying or renting cards. It's enough? Do I need more DEC?

Do you people have any advice for me?

Sort:  

Don't buy packs. Buy specific cards that buff splinters you like to use. Level up a summoner that you like, and then buy cards that fit that archetype.

Got to around 1200-1300 in bronze doing that and am now 1900ish in silver after about a week or two of play (and about £100 invested, you will need to spend to be able to compete unfortunately).

HI zedcell, Thank you for the advice!!
I'll buy some cards for now to reach bronze I, and then enjoy the game for a while before spending more cash.

Congratz on those cards, two legendaries in a row is very rare!

In terms of rating you can do better than bronze 2 without a lot of cards, you just need some good strategies. I'm working on creating some bronze strategies post, you can check them out if you like. (I actually reached 2000+ rating with only 15000 power)

In terms of power, it's usually best to buy cheap gold cards!

Hi freeztag. Thank you, I'll look forward that posts!!

check out this article. the 6k DEC should get you some of the cards listed there which would set you up nicely for bronze league. If you want some more expensive cards that work well in the Fire splinter check out Efreet elder and Ferexia General.

Hi sidetrekker!! That is an amazing piece of data, thank you! o( ̄▽ ̄)d
