Splinterlands 101 - Ep 5: Death Splinter
Yo Yo My Sovereigns, Wattup?
Welcome to episode 5 of my weekly Splinterlands 101 podcast, with @hiveaustralia's Diamond League player, @holoz0r.
In this episode, we explore many aspects of the Death Splinter.
The cards, game play, strategy, philosophy, lore, and much much more.
This is actually the first time that I've had a conversation with @holoz0r, and as such the conversation got quite involved, in many aspects, which was a good reminder for myself, that there is an actual human being behind the avatar (unless your playing against a bot 😉)
Something we can sometimes forget when battling some random avatar.
So I hope you enjoy this episode, as much as I enjoyed making it.
and don't forget, each week 1 viewer will have the opportunity to win 10% of the posts rewards. Details on how, included in this video. and... a bonus this week too from @holoz0r.
and make sure to checkout his Splinterlands livestreams on his Hive channel.
So what are you waiting for? Just press play 😉
...
Please Enjoy.
Peace.

This was a great chat! Thank you for having me!
Anytime man, It was great to get to know you in the process :)
Peace.
I'm trying to get through death quest at level one on my bronze account and getting nowhere since we no longer have any of beta starter cards. Trying all sorts of combos and haven't won a single match. You really miss those abilities when you don't have them.
I've found Thadius to be quite good at the bronze level. That's where I start each new season, and as mine is capped accordingly, it's essentially the same as a starter card. Cursed windeku is a great tank too. Thanks for stopping by 🥳
Peace.
Yeh, been using both and no luck. Might need to play a few rounds of other splinters, so I'm not so obvious. 😆
Any advice here @holoz0r?
A single Zintar in bronze can be enough to turn the tide. Thaddius is really good as @bobaphet mentioned!
Good seeing a new guest on. None other than a brother of death. Could be interesting getting in contact with other diamond league players (if this isn't already the directon your going after this 101 series) to see how they differ and to get a glimpse into how they stratagise with the ever changing meta/non-meta past and present. Maybe not a bad idea getting someone from lower leages aswell to come on as guests, plenty of dudes new and seasoned who i reckon would gladly jump on for a chat. Really good episode!
Haha, yes brother, we do think alike. How would you like to come on the show as a new player, flying through the ranks? You have really got some great insights into the game, as we've discussed before, and I've learned a thing or two from your playing style. I think you'd make a great guest on the show :)
Peace.
I've picked up a fair bit in the last few months and could have a casual chat around bronze/silver tiers of gameplay. Sounds like fun, lets do it.
💚
I can wear a wig next time and pretend I'm someone else in diamond :P
You might have trouble getting a wig on over all that hair.
A better disguise might be if you shave it all off 💀
I used to do that!
Pic please 🤡
Next guest. Zoro, no relation..
What would the closest card to a Zoro be?
haha couldn't have chosen better.
So what you got left then bruh?
Great idea Gio, could you arrange it please 😁
tue/wed/thu 10:00 - 14:00 ;)
Congratulations @giotrix, your post received the most engagement and has won this weeks 10% reward curation comp 🤑
Thanks BOB :D
Thanks GIO :D
Twas a blast :()
So good!
That was incredibly informative. I like how holoz0r had the game open, ready to check stuff. Great idea.
I miss thorns on Serpentine soldier, when I've slipped into Gold. He's so strong in Diamond, as a sneak target, (when paired with repair from Flame Monkey) largely because of thorns.
Haha yes, I think thorns is my favourite buff atm.
Did you checkout venari knifer?
Yes, thorns and backfire is the perfect each-way bet.
I could see him sitting nicely right in the middle of Melee Mayhem team.
By the time he gets to the front of the pack, he has the health to last a while, the thorns to hurt fast attackers, and the backfire to hurt the slower ones. He'd pair nicely with Brownie.
Vulnerable to magic and fast ranged.
Yes! That's exactly what I was going to say, but you beat me to it 🤪
