Beginner Mistakes in Splinterlands and How to Avoid Them

Starting in Splinterlands can be exciting, but new players often make mistakes that cost matches unnecessarily. Identifying and avoiding these mistakes early gives you a competitive edge.

1. Ignoring Rule Sets

Every battle may have special rules, like “No Melee” or “Reverse Speed.” Beginners who ignore rulesets often pick the wrong team and lose automatically. The way out is to always read the rules and pick monsters accordingly.

2. Overvaluing Power

High-attack monsters are tempting, but raw power is not enough. Speed, health, armor, and abilities often matter more than brute strength. Always build balanced teams, not just the strongest attackers.

3. Poor Summoner Choice

A wrong summoner can cripple your team. Some summoners boost stats your monsters don’t have, or give abilities your deck does not use. Do well to match your summoner to your deck strategy.

4. Misplacing Monsters

Position matters. Front-line monsters take damage first; back-line monsters deal damage safely. Many beginners stack all their attackers in front and lose too quickly. You need to understand attack types and abilities when positioning monsters.

5. Trying to Master Everything at Once

Splinterlands has many splinters, cards, and abilities. Beginners often try to use every type, spreading themselves thin. As a new player, focus on one or two splinters and grow gradually.

Note that mistakes are part of learning, but avoiding common pitfalls accelerates progress. Remember that Splinterlands rewards strategy, preparation, and adaptability more than raw spending. Always review your battles, learn from mistakes, and adjust. The game teaches patience as much as it teaches strategy.
