One of the formats I'm playing in Splinterlands is Frontier, which only allows Foundation Cards and reminds me of how Splinterlands used to be.
An advantage and also a disadvantage of playing in the Frontier format is that Foundation Cards are cheap, so you won't spend much to evolve your cards and become a strong player in this battle format. The disadvantage is that in this format you earn Foundation Cards, which means you won't have great profits, but it's still a great battle format to play.
Today my goal is to evolve the Marlai Singariel card to level 2. It's one of the summoners I use most in my battles, and evolving the summoner is essential to use higher-level cards in battles.
The summoner Marlai Singariel belongs to the Water deck and has only one function in battle.
Marlai Singariel increases the spell attack of all allied cards in battle by +1.
I hate facing cards with magic attacks, but I love using them in my battles because they can attack from any position and ignore enemy card armor.
To evolve Marlai Singariel to level 2, you need 5 cards, and each Marlai Singariel card costs $0.07. I already had 1 card, so I bought 4 more to reach level 2.
This is a small investment, and unfortunately, I'm unlucky enough not to get Marlai Singariel as a reward in the Frontier format, so I decided to buy the cards on the market. However, my goal is still to evolve Foundation Cards using only my Frontier format rewards.
Foundation Cards aren't very powerful, but I like them, and they're cheap, so they're great to add to my card collection and use in battles.
My goal is to evolve all my Foundation Cards to the maximum level this year.
