> Axie Infinity is a Pokémon-inspired universe where anyone can earn tokens through skilled gameplay and contributions to the ecosystem. Players can battle, collect, raise, and build a land-based kingdom for their pets. —[Axie Infinity Whitepaper](https://whitepaper.axieinfinity.com/)

Glued to my phone, checking all my social media accounts, the chaos of a sudden downtime of Axie Infinity halt my experience of trying it the first time. It was all due to a server disturbance (DDOS Attacks) and all pending game updates for the next season which made the game almost not playable to all (well, some were just having plain luck and perserverance to get in to trafficked server).

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/itsmeangel/Eo45JsdQWgAXenUcMHY6mQU38iv113epH6y3znQW8fjkRhnxQoSPCopLPhNyQ2WhfVS.jpg ![Screenshot_2021-07-22-13-44-47-77_2293b1a056ef5c930dc307d729715455.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/itsmeangel/Ep1Zqp1PvzLogbr1kfxG3eQFHX6Ru6pVwAa6GxoUaCsim14ojoj2SGPg5akTSZXT1UP.jpg)

Last July 16 when I was chosen as part of the guild namely The Axie Pack by our pack leader with an alias, Gank. He provided me with my logins as soon as he have chosen me (which I am privileged of, thanks to him) and I immediately logged in to the game. Yet, to my surprise, the server is down at that time and got no chance to play it the first time I have met my cute little Axie Team (Aquatic, Reptile and Plant types).

Seven days passed, everyday, I keep on trying to get in and play Axie Infinity so that I can already earn Smooth Love Potion (or SLP, the cryptocurrency of the game) but still, no chance. Every 30 minutes or an hour, I am making sure that I get to check the game and see if there's progress but I know developers and engineers of the said game are doing their best to fix the game and have it backed up and running.

Maintenance here, updates there. The developers are not failing to share the progress to the whole community on what steps they are taking to secure the game and the earnings of the players. They are certainly doing a great job with polls asking the people if the server's doing better or not yet. Great way to scale the next thing they need to do.

Then, all of a sudden, more and more players are able to complete their daily tasks and they described the experience as smooth like butter. Fortunate for those who has personal computers and laptops, the game went so well, but not for mobile users. The game is almost impossible to use in cellphones. And I ended up having high hopes that the game's development is almost there, we just have to wait a little bit more.

Being very eager to play the game as early as possible, I have tried my best to look for an opportunity to borrow a laptop from a friend. Guess what? She let me use it since she's not using it at the moment! (Shout out to you, Aiza! Thanks!)

My inner technical support rep is screaming. I need to install the application on the laptop to make the game working. Mavis Hub is the most important, so, you need to log in with your email and your password. After putting the credentials, you need to pass the anti-bot ReCaptcha test.

Yet, my patience is being tested again...

It says that captcha is invalid or expired, even though I have chosen the right answers, it wouldn't let me in. And so, I tried watching YouTube tutorials on how to fix it, didn't worked. Now, I asked the people of Twitter for the workarounds of the said issue. Many have given suggestions, most of them didn't worked out for me, until this [tweet from @AxieBlair](https://twitter.com/AxieBlair/status/1418370027632295937?s=19) gave me hope that it may work for me.

And the first one worked! I got in with the help of my pack leader's guidance, too. He had done email and password reset to my credentials and now I can get in to both of my devices!

Lunacia Ruin: Adventure Mode

https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/itsmeangel/EouB6Jwdwvem2taPUumoPQzPcjhVwewppHr5tBx3noj3wPWTY9n7faEX5LWcWvv9TAH.jpg

Finally! After exactly a week of trying and waiting and hoping (just like the favorite mantra of aspiring scholars, lol!), I have been able to see the beauty of the land of Lunacia. First round, first ruin, first level with 3 Chimeras to beat, I am so pumped!

While I am exploring the gameplay, I couldn't help but smile. The wait is finally over this time. I got to know more of my ARP Team, what are their skills and my chess game mode is on to win the said ruin.

Hooray! My first Adventure Mode win! I am loving it! I kept going, and my experience using mobile on this game was smooth, no lags, no traffic. Finished my daily quest and I am so happy! My friends used to tell me to use up all my 20 energies to Adventure Mode to level up my Axies and prepare for my Arena Battles.

I followed their tip and now, I am leveling up my pet Axies to have them ready for the next battles we will face. My favorite so far is my Plant and Aqua Axie types. Plant is the healer/damage of the team, while Aqua deals great damage to the opponents. However, my Reptile's Sticky Goo tactics are very useful, too! Below are their unique skills:

I just love these three cutie Axies of mine. They are very dear to me. Soon enough, we can conquer the Lunacia Ruins and hoping, the Leaderboards, too. (Keep dreaming, ain't it?)

So, whenever you feel like giving up, just don't. You should do something about your biggest dreams and hold on to it dearly until it becomes a reality. Look back on the reasons why you have started. Be inspired of the success of others and make one of yours, too! You go, fellow Lunacians and future Lunacians! We are going nowhere but up!
