The Need To Upgrade My Splinterlands Deck

avatar

The battles becoming tougher on the Splinterlands battlefield is an understatement. Gone are the days of having it easy, every victory now requires a more strategic approach, stronger cards with abilities, and a bit of luck.

I and @mistakili had a go at each other last Sunday, it was a challenge I longed for since he beat me in October 2021. I still enjoy watching that battle to date.

For three rounds of battle, he had me where he wanted me with a 2-1 victory. I was left defeated for a second but he gave me another chance another three rounds of battle, it was a chance I embraced with immediate alacrity. The outcome of that was 3-0 in my favor.

it was really fun while it lasted, one thing was clear, Joe had spent some energy building up his deck, my deck is still 2020-2021 styled, if I’m going to get back into playing full time, I’d need to spend some resources upgrading my deck.

Splinterlands Deck building doesn't come easily a lot of resources are required and when the funds aren't available it gets tougher.

The launch of Chaos Legion moved the battles to a whole new level with Wild and Modern format. While ensuring my season win rate stays above 50% it has been taking a lot more grind.

With my summoners at level 4 except the Dragon Splinter summoners, the need for a level 5 upgrade is long overdue. Today I now have my first summoner at level 5. I just need to have 39+1 as seen above.
I was able to achieve this at the expense of selling my level 4 WIZZARD OF EASTWOOD. I am going to miss that summoner for the -2 Armor.

Next up is my Death Splinter summoner CONTESSA L'AMENT from the Untamed era has to go for THADDIUS BROOD. I hate flipping these summoners but I have to do that to stay competitive.

BORTUS and MOTHER KHALA my Water and Life summoners respectively are not for flipping, they require upgrades. I might have to flip PYRE for TARSA, will see how that goes.

Am glad to now own a level 5 summoner OBSIDIAN, there's going to be a win rate improvement from Earth Splinter as rip opponents apart.

I think I’ll start with my summoners. Get them till around level 4 or just generally maxing them out.

Nice battle bro

I saw many blogs about Splinterlands but personally I've never tried the game as I'm not a gamer. But usually I find interesting blogs on it like yours.

The leveling up is difficult for sure. I enjoyed reading this post very much! Thanks for sharing your insight. I do wonder how new players will react to the game these days.

I will max out all the common card in my deck and slowly move to rare and epic. I want to build my deck

The commons are easier due to cost, it gets pricey from Rare cards. I just can't wait to have my summoners at level 5 for now.

My summoners are still at level 2 and level 3 :( I guess I should give up the gold summoners and upgrade the regular ones to level 4.

I'd rather get the Gold Foil monster cards, it will cost me alot if I want to go the GF summoner route, am already struggling up grading the RF.

If I have the funds, no doubt I'll opt for GF summoners

I definitely prefer gold foils, but summoners are too expensive for me. I will proceed step by step. I'll complete the Common, Rare, and Epic Gold cards first, then summoners!

It's tough and I realize that the current fights are even harder with Riftwatchers out there. I saw a few new cards that I have never seen before in my fights

I saw the Riftwatchers cards as well, it's crazy I like the cards, the Dragon and Life summoner got me wishing for them.
We are up for great challenge with RW cards now in the mix
