The Earth Element is my favorite among all Splinterlands Elements. I find it especially strong in the league where I am currently playing, which is the bronze league.
Today, I will share with you the Earth Element cards that I usually rent for Modern Battle. I will also explain why I choose to rent these particular cards.
I don't usually rent Gold Foil cards, but I had to rent a Gold Foil card yesterday because it was the Fray that I received in the Guild Brawl.
However, I only rented the cards that I can afford, as renting Gold Foil cards in the bronze league isn't very profitable.
Summoner
- Obsidian
- Level 2
- Rarity: Rare
- Ability: All friendly monsters have +1 Magic Attack
I like this summoner because most of the cards I use have magic attacks. Obsidian's ability increases the magic attack of the units it summons.
Mylor Crowling
- Level 3
- Rarity: Rare
- Ability: All friendly monsters gain the Thorn ability
Who wouldn't want to use a summoner that grants thorn abilities to all monsters?
Mycelic Morphoid
- Level 2
- Rarity: Common
- Melee Attack: 1
- Speed: 1
- Health: 2
- Ability: Thorn
- Position: Front
I prefer using this card in the front if I have excess mana left to use. The probability of it dealing damage to the opponent is high due to its thorn ability. There's a good chance that the opponent will attack this card first, giving it an opportunity to inflict damage.
Failed Summoner
- Level 3
- No attack
- Speed: 2
- Health: 6
- Ability: Magic Reflect
- Position: Front
I use this card as a tank when the mana cap is low (usually any cap below 25). Before battles start, I always check my opponents' previous battles. If they frequently use magic attack cards, I make sure to use this card as a tank.
Unicorn Mustang
- Level 2
- Rarity: Rare
- Attack: 3
- Speed: 4
- Health: 11
- Ability: Void
- Position: Front
This is an excellent tank due to its strong attack, good speed, and high health. Its void ability makes it effective against magic attack units.
Goblin Psychic
- Level 3
- Rarity: Common
- Magic Attack: 2
- Speed: 1
- Life: 5
- Ability: Tank Heal
- Position: Mid
This card is very useful in battle as it not only attacks but also heals the tank every round. When summoned using Obsidian, its attack increases to 3, making it quite damaging.
Mycelic Slipspawn
- Level 2
- Rarity: Rare
- Magic Attack: 2
- Speed: 2
- Health: 11
- Ability: Taunt
- Position: 2nd or last
I don't always use this card, I rent it only when the mana cap is 50 or higher. It's valuable against enemies who frequently use sneak and snipe cards, redirecting their attacks away from your healer or key cards.
Fungus Fiend
- Level - 1
- Rarity: Legendary
- Attack: 1
- Speed: 1
- Health: 2
- Ability: None
- Position: Front or last
Why is a low-stat card valuable? Because this card has zero mana cost. If you have an extra slot in your lineup, you can use this card as a decoy against sneak and snipe attacks. I also position it in the front when I need a tank for Kron and have no mana left. When using Mylor as a summoner, I place it in front so it retaliates with thorns when attacked.
Goblin Tower
- Level 2
- Rarity: Rare
- Ranged Attack: 2
- Speed: 1
- Shield: 3
- Health: 4
- Ability: Blast
- Position: Mid
Though I'm not a fan of ranged units in card games, I consider this card due to its blast ability. It earned its spot in my Earth Element lineup.
Venari Scout
- Level 3
- Rarity: Common
- Attack: 1
- Speed: 3
- Health: 4
- Ability: Opportunity
- Position: Mid back
This card might seem weak in terms of stats, but its purpose is valuable. Thanks to its opportunity ability, it targets the card with the lowest health, often eliminating annoying buff cards. Its low mana cost makes it easy to include in my battle lineup.
Goblin Thief
- Level 3
- Rarity: Common
- Attack: 2
- Speed: 3
- Health: 4
- Ability: Sneak
- Position: Mid back
I always try to include a sneak attack card whenever possible. These cards help target snipers and powerful attackers positioned at the back of the enemy lineup.
Sporcerer
- Level 2
- Rarity: Epic
- Magic Attack: 2
- Speed: 1
- Health: 6
- Ability: Rust
- Position: Mid
Sporcerer is effective, particularly against water element opponents with shields.
Kron the Undying
- Level 1
- Rarity: Legendary
- Magic Attack: 3
- Speed: 2
- Health: 10
- Ability: Heal
- Position: 2nd or last
Kron is a must whenever I rent cards. It's advisable to rent it for an entire season to avoid higher costs later. I often position Kron in the second spot, with Goblin Psychic positioned behind.
I'm not saying that this is a good or perfect lineup; it's just the one that works for me. Feel free to share your favorite lineup in the comment section.
