This was supposed to be my entry for the "Make a Contest" contest. Something that is a pacifist run where you let the environment kill your enemies as your units stand until the end. Instead

This week, we I decided to join again on @spl-contest and @bunsbagsandcaps contest of creating your own contest. My initial idea was to make a Pacifist Battle Contest. The idea is to have a battle where

Four's A Crowd Modifier always makes battles feel more intense for me. With only four units allowed, every slot becomes very important. You cannot rely on extra support units so each one needs to do multiple

I wanted to try a lineup that focuses on stacking armor while still dealing steady damage. With the Weak Magic modifier, magic attacks no longer ignore armor which changes how I value tanky units. This

The Saltwater Mage is a really good magic damage unit especially considering you can get it for free by playing Frontier Ranked. Its magic damage is decent, and its Sneak ability, which targets the last

Silverleaf Ranger is a high-damage unit that attacks twice per round with Double Strike. While she can heal herself, it's her ability to deal explosive damage twice while also helping the team makes her

Sometimes the best battles are the ones where you can simply play the strategy you like. With the Standard modifier, there are no strange rules or restrictions changing how units behave. That makes it

This was a Standard battle, so there were no special modifiers changing how the game worked. At first, I didn’t think much of it because Standard usually feels straightforward. But this one turned into

Sometimes, I kind of like when nothing fancy is happening. There's no strange modifiers, no rule-defying twist and just pure team building and may the better strategy wins. It feels like a fair test of

When I saw Up Close and Personal with 41 mana, I already knew this was going to be messy in a good way. It's a very simple modifier but you can be tricky if you know how to do it. With just pure melee

This battle felt stressful the moment I saw the modifier. Global Warming is one of those modifiers that constantly make your units lose health because of burning debuff. On top of that, we only had 25

This battle surprised me more than I expected. When I first saw the enemy lineup, I honestly thought I was going to lose in terms of the damage. Their units had strong magic and range attacks and it felt

I like battling in Gold since you have combinations of modifiers making things more trickier than usual. It’s not the kind where you can just rely on usual tricks and expect things to work. When modifiers

With a lot of battles in this season, I were able to climb back to Gold a few days before the season ends. I've seen that the rankings would be reset if I get to Gold 1 which sounded bad but I think the

These four battles all highlight something I’ve been noticing more in my games lately. It's how positioning, unit roles and some basics can completely decide the outcome. From near mirror matches to modifiers

I recently got hooked on D&D in youtube like Legend of Avantris, Critical Role and some Warhammer 40k campaigns so the creative part of my brain is a bit active right now. I want to share some ideas

Legends in the Splinterlands don’t always need to be proven. Sometimes, the stories are enough. Captain Fellblade is one of those names that carries weight the moment you see her in a lineup. They say

Since I've returned to the Frontier Ranked and farming cards, I feel like it would look bad if it's just one battle at a time. It would be very repetitive since the units are very limited unlike the choices

This match forced both teams to rely almost entirely on their frontline tank. There were no tricks, no backline sniping, and no surprise Sneak plays. It became a pure test of stats and durability and what

Sometimes Splinterlands feels like it’s balancing the game and then immediately setting everything on fire. With Equalizer modifier, everyone becomes a tank because all units share the same health. That
