Splinterforge - Week 2
Following my first week of play I've tried during the weekend to rank on the leaderboards, as that is the only part of the week when I am not working and can therefore utilize the stamina to its max without losing it due to the cap.
I came really close with one of the chickens but still below the bar. My strategy was to review other's battles and see what worked best for them. I've rented monsters where I could and tested out new teams. What it ultimately came down to however was the heroes being under powered.
The vast majority of successful strategies revolve around utilizing the Byzantine Kitty with a strong hero and with a few support monsters thrown in to provide more buffer for the hero to deal damage.
This means two strategies are taking shape if you want to make for the leaderboards:
- Rent powerful Splinterlands cards and rely fully on cards to deal damage
- Equip heroes and rent some powerful Splinterlands cards and combine these for damage dealing
This week ends with me exploring the 1st strategy and managing to get upwards of 250-280 damage by renting coeurl lurker and combining it with either double strike melee focused builds or with magic sustain damage focused ones.
Alas, I have not even made it close to the leaderboard. So maybe next week I will give it a shot to the second strategy.
Stay tuned!
