Hello guys!
For my first own post I want to introduce 5 must have starter cards in splinterlands. These cards will make it much more easier for you to climb the ladder. All of these cards I've played on my own, when I started with splinterlands. I hope, I can help you with this "guide" and give me your thoughts about this post in the comments. Have fun!
1. Wood nymph
The wood nymph is a magican attacker in the earth splinter with the healing ability. It is similiar to the goblin psychic of chaos legion, but is cheaper and has less attack. When staring with splinterlands you have a huge advantage having this card, because for example you can play the wood nymph together with the mycelic splipspawn in low mana matches, and not many cards will destroy the healing taunt combination. On top of that, the wood nymph fits over all very good to the earth splinter, especially playing it with obsidian. Even though the wood nymph is an very old card, you can buy it for 1$ right now, because it is a reward card.
2. Fineas rage
Fineas rage is a very fast secondary tank for the fire splinter. With Tarsa you have a powerful combination, because it gets +1 attack and +1 health. The starter cards of the fire splinter are all a bit slow, but this one with its 5 speed isn't. Many monsters will miss this card, when it is in the first position. And when it is in second position it deals 2 damage (3 with Tarsa). This card is a reward card, too, and you can have it right now for 3.70$ on the market.
3. Sand worm
The sand worm is a sneak melee attacker of the neutral splinter. With the massive attack of 5 it is very strong. I would recommend the sand worm in high mana battles, when the opponent has slow monsters without armor. Then the sand worm will destroy the enemy backline. You can play this card especially with Tarsa and Kelya Frendul (the +1 speed will help you a lot). Pairing this card with other sneak attacker is a nice strategy, too. You can buy this monster for 1.10$ on the market.
4. Djinn Chwala
Djinn Chwala is a melee attacker of the dragon splinter with the thorns ability. It is very similar to cursed windeku, but it is a bit stronger and more expensive of mana. But the difference is, you can play this card with the dragon splinter and the starter dragon summoner drake of arnak fits good to Djinn Chwala. In the bronze ladder people play very often melee attackers, so this card will counter the melee attackers with the thorns very well. On top it has very high armor and health stats. Because it is a new reward card, you can obtain it out of loot chests or buying it for 0.57$ from the market.
5. Djinn Oshannus
The last card is Djinn Oshannus and it is an absolute beast. It is legendary magic attacker of the water splinter, with the ability void. With its high health and speed stats, it is a very good tank, especially against magic attack. You can pair it with Kelya Frendul, but when you expect your opponent playing magic attack, you can use Bortus, then you will hardly receive damage with this card. All in all I would say this card is one of the best to start with, I use it so often and it helps me so often to win a game. Right now you can obtain it out of loot chests or buying it from the market for 4.40$.
