So I have been playing splinterland since Chaos Legion set where foundation cards were not a thing. Then when rewards cards turned soulbound I was botting in wild and took time off till the inclusion of the wild pass. Now I am starting to make a comeback and am enjoying the new mode frontier, plus playing some modern games (not as much as I should).
Now a question for all you that have played in bronze or any league for that matter. Do you use your foundation cards in modern?
For me it is like the starter cards that was around before the foundation set don't use them unless you own them. I know some of them can be very helpful, but I just can't bring myself to use them and keep the box ticked to hide them.
Now looking at some of the games that I have played when I come up against the foundation cards and I and just using modern cards 98% of the time I win but that 2% has got me thinking.
This is kind of a good example where my opponent has used mostly foundation cards, and I have used none. We have both used cards with taunt but I feel the modern cards are stronger (having more health).
Letting it play out you can see that they lose their taunt card by mid round 2 and mine is still going strong.
I lose mine at the end of round 3 but you can see that most of their lineup has gone so mine done its job.
Now I know this is just a bronze match and for new players the foundation cards may be their only cards or even most of their cards, but I feel they don't compete with the main decks and I understand that's how it is set up to work.
Now my question to you is, Do you use foundation cards in modern? Have you found a way to make them work?
