Hello fellow Splinterlands Figthers and a Happy New Year 2022,
I had a rough Time trying to fight my way up in the League. But I made it into Silver II again for now.
I scanned the Card Market to see which Cards will hopefully give me an Advantage and give me enough Collection Power to raise up.
I tried to find Cards for every Splinter and some Neutral ones.
As I don´t have too much Money laying around these Days I had to make some rough Decisions for my advance.
Right now I own 56 Cards - some Drops included.
The Fire Splinter
I managed to buy the following Cards
Second Row Attacker with high Speed and Huge Life (sadly has pretty high Mana Cost but worth it in my Opinion)
First Row Monster Blcoker against Mana Enemies instead of Living Lava against Melee. Also has High Life
Cheap to buy and very good in Matches where Melee can Attack from every Position since it also damages the Monsters left and right to the Attacked one
This One I have bought some Time earlier - but it can help since it can be used up to in first Position and is pretty Tanky^^
And lastly this Tanky Blocker Card with High Melee Damage, Life and Shield
Thats it for the Fire Splinter.
My favourite Splinter is the Water Splinter
But Cards are relatively High Cost - which is why I rented most
First off a Summoner
High Mana but has not only plus Mana but plus Speed and Armor as well for our Advantage
The Phantom is one of my absolute Favourites as he has two Dodging Abylities and 4 Magic Damage!
Mostly followed by this Card as it Damages two or more Monsters in one Attack with 3 Magic Attack.
If I can I add the Coral Wraith to have 3 Damage on the Enemy Backlines
Nice to have in Lineup as she has 4 Potential Damage each Attack and High Life
And of course my First and second Ingame Drop the famous Dhinn Oshannus
Depending on the Match Rules and availabe Mana I try to mostly Mix these Magic Damage Cards as Water Splinter gave me a lot of Wins
The Earth Splinter
As the Starter Deck already provides nice Mix of Cards I did not rent or buy too much here
The Grund as a Main Tank Blocker Card has high potential Melee Damage, High Life and will Attack two times in one Round!
This one is probably Underestimated as it has Camouflage which makes the Monster unhittable until it became the last Monster of the Deck
And of Course the Fiend which has Zero Mana Cost and therefore is good for low Mana Matches to Block.
The Life Splinter
As Life Splinter has a Summoner which gives Plus one on Ranged Attacks I figured I should get some additional Ranged Attackers
This one has Potential 4 Damage each Round and also deals Damage to the Monsters left and right of the Attack (Blast)
If some Mana is left I can add this Fella. Not much Damage but has Sniping and does only Cost 2 Mana.
The Death Splinter
As I think most Cards of the Starter Deck are just fine and i often Combine it with Dragon Splinter I only got me one Card in Addition the Fiend.
Magi Necrosi is a Magic Attacker with Snipe and Camouflage which is probably underrated.
The Dragon Splinter
This one dropped a lot in Value but I just love to Combine with Death Spliiter top have 2 Monsters with Thorns. Best Usecase is probably in Matches where Melee can Attack from every Position. In that Case I use both Thorn Cards toghether. One in 1st Position and other one in last Position.
Neutral Monster Cards
Probably the most Famous Neutral Card. Cheap and potential Speed Advantage
The Disintegrator is extremly cheap Card and will lower all Enemy Melee Attackers by one Point.
Super Cheap and low Mana Cost. Attacks Enemy Backlines.
And last but not Least
If you did not Notice until here I kinda love Magic Attack this one is good and cheap to Mix in between.
Finally I will show you my End of Season Rewards for December in Silver One
Not he best but could still be worse as I had only Potions and low DECs as Daily Quest Rewards lately. But I will keep on Grinding.
Let me know what you think about my Choices. Also I will be Superglad to hear if I potentially helped out another new Player.
Keep on Fighting!
