~ 😘 Hello My Splinter fammily around the world 😘 ~
Welcome back to my blog, 
. In this battle weekly challenge, I am very excited to share some tips and tricks on how to win Gobson Masters Bronze Gold Foil. As it was written in the name, The tournament allows players to use only alpha edition cards, no beta, promo nor all modern cards. There are very less players who used to play alpha cards and I do believe most of them are early players but as a new Splinterlands player who started this game in May 2022, I found that playing alpha only is very exciting as the cards are limited so we don't need to think too complicated to predict the opponent movement.

- TOURNAMENT OVERVIEW -
Alright, It was the first time for me to participate in alpha tournament and I chose the bronze one since we can see the reward is pretty huge. 806 SPS ($35.464 at the current rate) for the top 4. As the bronze league, I would say it's pretty attractive! so I decided to rent all of the alpha gold foil cards at bronze level, as far as I remember, the total rental cost was $13.3 so I still made some profits around $22.164. This is the way I play Splinterlands, renting cards and try to get some profits.
In order to participate in the tournament, all players need to have at least 13,405 staked SPS and 360K Power of gold alpha cards. There are only 37 players who joined the tournament so you'll always get the entry fee back as the tourney is rewarding top 64 players 5 SPS. The tournament type was anytime 24 hours so everyone around the world can fill the match whenever they are feeling free.
- MY TOURNAMENT PERFORMANCE -
1st Round
Well, I am satisfied with the result of the first round since I got 8 Wins, 1 Draw and 2 Lose which means that the winning percentage was 72.72%, I think it's very good as the first tournament participation. The below picture is showing all the battles in round 1 :
I took 2 L and 1 Draw out of 11 battles, got 8-2 score feels good although 2 of my opponents were fled. I lost against

| Mana : 44 (Life, Death, Dragon) | Ruleset : Super Sneak, Explosive Weaponry |
|---|---|
 | The mistake I did in this match is I was fooled with Super Sneak ruleset and put Haunted Spirit at the backmost position while the enemy was not put any melee monsters to do sneak attack. |
2nd lose against
| Mana : 40 (Fire, Water, Earth, Death, Dragon) | Ruleset : Reverse Speed, Explosive Weaponry |
|---|---|
 | My defence is weaker than dajoker. He has Frozen Soldier, Frost Giant, and Water Elemental to protect from my attack, while I only had Frost Giant and Water Elemental for defence. |
At the final round, I lost to 
, a player from Summoners Tribe guild and had a draw with . There are 8 matches in this round so I got 6 wins. Pretty satisfying result but I will do some practice again for the better result in the future. Here is the final round :

Since I lost to jacekw, Let's discuss about how the battle was going on and take lesson learned so we won't repeat the same mistake in the future :
3rd lose against
| Mana : 13 (Fire, Water, Life, Dragon) | Ruleset : Lost Legendaries |
|---|---|
 | In the battle where there's no chance for the player to use magic attack, shield is the best to be used as a tank. |
- THE MOST INTERESTING BATTLE -
Let's take a look more deeply in my battle against , His defensive strategy to put 3 monsters as a tank and anticipation for Explosive Weaponry ruleset (Frozen Soldier, Frost Giant, and Water Elemental) works perfectly to hold my magic attack. In additional, the Crustacean King was also helped for the defence as this monster restore the tank's health point in each round. The reverse speed ruleset really helps slow monster to attack first and the guarantee to hit their attack.
