Splinterlands - water splinter cards and decks to use for new starters in the bronze league
I love playing Splinterlands. I'm hooked on the card collecting particularly, and also the ability to earn passive rewards from renting cards, the daily airdrop, and staking of SPS. However, I also still consider myself a noob to Splinterlands. I play in the lowest leagues, because I tend to rent out any cards I own to gain income, hence I dont have them to play with.
When you first start it can be hard to figure out what cards to use, so I thought I'd share some decks that new starters could use with some success in the lower leagues (Bronze).
In this post I'll focus on the water splinter. I tend to stick to some tried and tested cards and deck setups - and these ones seem to work for me - not all the time, it depends who you are playing, but they will get you through 5 battles so that you can complete a water quest.
So the main cards I use are:
Summoner - Keylay Frendul - gives +1 speed and +1 armour
Position 1 - Serpent of Eld - good first position tank, can take some damage and deal it out too
Position 2 - Deeplurker - good second postiion backup tank at lowish mana cost (6) - can also hit from the second position
Position 3 - Pelacor Bandit - low mana cost (3) - with sneak attack ability, and flying ability
Position 4 - Ice Pixie - low mana cost (2) - magic attacks and flying ability
Position 5 - Sniping Narwhal - ranged attack, and will target ranged/magic monsters
Position 6 - Hardy Stonefish - cheap mana cost (1) good last position card to soak up sneak attack damage
You should have most of those when you start, within the free cards - maybe not the pelacor bandit, but I find it drops frequently from reward chests, plus its cheap to buy or rent, if needed.
Anyway, I use a combination of these cards depending on the mana cost of the battle - but note, I find they are not great at lower mana cost battles, so I tend to just use water splinter from 15 mana and up. The following table shows the layout I tend to use:
There are a few other cards in there as well - but again they are freebies - but you can see that I'm mainly leveraging the ones above, and how I'm building up their use from lower mana battles to higher mana battles.
I'm not saying this is the best setup you can have and that you will win every battle, but I am saying you'll do alright and it will get you through a daily quest - which when you first start, can be quite difficult and frustrating, while you are learning how the cards work.
The key thing with Splinterlands when you first start is to stick with it, learn how the cards work, and figure out what to use and when. It takes some practice, reading-up and perseverence - but its worth it, because the rewards from this game can be colossal.
Anyway, I hope this noob water splinter guide helps a little to get you moving in the right direction.
All the best @hoosie !!

Good point - although, new starters who dont invest into cards wont have any option but to use starter cards
True, true. Interesting to see how these updates effects on renting market.
Yes, thats a really good point - will it force more to rent at first until they have their own cards ?
I think so! It would make sense.
Finally decided to join, thanks for refering me! ;) Took my time as I was burnt out playing Gwent for a pointless collection. Hopefully owning the cards will solve that!
Hope it goes well - there are so many options for earning in Splinterlands, its quite impressive !

Haha! You're showing the way, bro! Same with RisingStar! Worst case, the spellbook was paid with my weekly earning of listnerds (a subtile way to point you may be missing out...)
Yes, lol - I need to get myself over to Listnerds !!!
Hi - I've got some spare time to look into Listnerds - can you drop me a referral link please (I'm assuming they have them).
Thanks
Thank you! Not sure what is the benefit for both of us but here you go: https://listnerds.com/@engilhramn
Just give it 2 weeks to see how indecently good it is. The catch is 10 weeks unstacking

By the way, wait to have at least 1000 MAIL token before sending your weekly mail, then 1500-1600 is a good measure, and it lets you accumulate for a 15000 solo mail. Then wait 1 week to get your post and mail paid. That's when you will hallucinate ;)
Thanks for that, and will do !
