I am using hive and steem blockchain from last four years I don't like playing mobile games that's why every time I see an article about splinterlands or steemmonsters while scroling I just passed it, even sometime I visited steemmonsters website and logged in, but it's happened only few times, I also get my username but don't play even a single battle or not purchased spellbook or any game card
Recently as you know after the SPS tokens airdrop to its old users and SPS listings on some top exchanges, splinterlands got lot of attention from new users as well as old users also started learning about splinterlands, I also starts using and getting more information about splinterlands almost 15 days ago,
I made a mistake which I want to mention here, I don't read splinterlands log in page carefully I just assumed we must require email ID and password to log in into splinterlands account, so created a new splinterlands account after purchasing a spellbook and game cards and playing so many battles I noticed we can simply used over hive username and password to login into splinterlands account
Remember If you are a hive blockchain user and already have a username and posting keys of your hive blockchain account there is no need to create a new account for splinterlands you can simply used your username and posting key to log in into splinterlands account, if you created a new account you can not get same user name a which you already have on hive blockchain that's why only create a splinterlands new account if you are a new user, because it looks nice to have username on all dapps and front ends basd on hive blockchain

After playing splinterlands from last 15 days I feel it's very unique gaming platform, there are lots of things to learn, currently my Rating is 808 in this season and I have played 415 battles I win 174 battles,
I feel there is not any formula or simple strategy to win all battles because as your rating increases in the league you starts facing more competition, every splitnter have some different cards with different abilities that's why there are many factors to consider when you make a decision which card you have to use for a specific battle, you can get any available card from the splintershards market on rent or even you can purchase it from the market
I think three factors are very important for winning a battle on splinterlands
1.Splinter
it's depends on your splinter from sic available splinters which card you can use for battle because all card with all abilities are not available in a single splinter every splinter have some different or unique card with different abilities
2.Card level, abilities and position
Every card have different abilities to attack enemies and defend or heel frindly monsters that's why card abilities also matters, another factor is level of your card because higher level and most rare cards are more powerful then common and lower level card, third factor is your cards position during the battle
3.Mana and battle rules
Every battle have a different mana availability, you have to choose cards within the total mana available that's why your choice really matters,some time battles rules are changed by splinterlands for a specific battle this also affects your ability to won a battle
There are also some other factors which we must consider to win a battle I just want to share my own experience which I got only from last 15 days
Thanks
