The story of a great battle victory using a water deck
Every battle in the Splinterlands game is a new challenge. From choosing a deck to arranging cards—everything requires the right decision and a cool head strategy. In this battle, I could have used any deck I wanted. Fire, Earth, or Death—all decks were ready for me. But when I saw the relatively low mana cap of the battle, one thought came to mind—a water deck would be the best choice. I think it's a modification. Because I had many other options in front of me. I could have done it even if I thought I would use an eight deck or redo the life deck
Why a water deck?
The biggest strength of a water deck is the opportunity to use effective units with low mana. This deck has many cards that provide good stats and powerful abilities at low mana costs. Especially magic attack units can break the opponent's defense very quickly. So I decided early on that the magic-focused strategy of the Water deck would lead me to an easy victory in this battle.
Marlai Singariel as the Summoner
My most important decision in this battle was to choose Marlai Singariel as the Summoner. Her +1 Magic Attack buff works great for the entire team. The Water deck is already strong in magic attack, and with this bonus added, every magic unit becomes even more deadly. In low-mana matches, this extra +1 can often change the fate of the match—and that's what happened in this battle.
Card Selection and Lineup
While arranging the lineup, I tried to put a tank in front that could withstand some damage. I put a unit that dealt continuous magic damage in the middle, and support and finisher type cards in the back.
The big advantage of the Water deck is that it has single-target magic as well as debuffs and special ability units. As a result, even if I can't completely predict what kind of deck the opponent will play, my position remains strong.
First Round Experience
As soon as Round 1 started, I realized that my decision was not wrong. Due to Marlai Singariel's magic buff, my units were able to deal more damage from the start. The opponent's front unit was losing health quickly. The best thing at this time was that even though I had low mana, my team didn't feel any shortage.
Gradually taking control
By Round 2, the scenario became clearer. Some of the opponent's important cards had already fallen, and my magic units were almost intact. The key here was patience—not making any unnecessary risky choices. The consistent damage and steady strategy of the Water deck gave me control of the entire match.
The result of smart planning
It is often seen that players choose a high-mana deck just because they see strong cards. But winning in Splinterlands is not always about strength, but smart planning. In this battle, I saw low mana as an opportunity, not a weakness. The Water deck used that opportunity perfectly.
Moment of Victory
When the big “VICTORY!” My rating increased by +20 in the Silver II League, along with the Dark Energy Crystal and SPS reward. But the biggest gain was confidence—if you make the right decisions and show intelligence, any difficult battle becomes easier.
Lessons from this battle
This match reminded me of some important things again:
Deck selection is even more important when mana is low
Water decks are very effective when mana is low
The right summoner can turn the tide of the match
With patience and planning, even the strongest opposition can lose
I am presenting you with some screenshots from my winning battle and I am posting the battle ter ling here, I hope you like it.
I could have used any other deck in this battle if I wanted, but choosing a water deck was the best decision considering the situation. With a little bit skill and a little bit luck, the battle victory was very easy. Every victory in Splinterlands teaches me something new, and this victory taught me that playing smart is the real power.
I hope use this experience in future battles do better. 🌊🔥
