Hello splinterlands fans. How is your day going? I can't do without giving glory to God over this community and every splinterlands fans and lovers.
After series of game I played in order to reach diamond. I unlocked diamond yesterday and I was very happy because it was my first time.
I have been very active in splinterlands for months now in splinterlands, I played novice level several times and I only reached goldll. I promised myself yesterday that I must unlock diamond and I did.
Today, i need to complete my daily reward with dead summoners. I started this game as early as possible. I was defeated so heavenly for hours to the extent my points dropped drastically. I got frustrated and tired of playing
I stopped playing without completed my daily quest, I picked it up again after 3 hours and started playing it again. After series of defeat, I finally completed my daily quest and I was given ettin spearman with over 150DEC.

RULESET

Target practice: all ranged and magic attack monsters have the snipe abilities.
Mana cap is 13

SUMMONERS
FURIOUS CHICKEN: it has been my favorite to start the battle for me, despite of little ability it has. The reason I used it here is to filled the space since it is not useful in the this battle.
CERBERUS: Restored a portion of health after each round and melee attack was the major reason I used this monster here. Its speed also add value to my winning in the battle.
SERPENTINE SPY: Ability to attack in any direction was the reason I used it here. Serpentine spy can attack in any direction and also looking for monsters with small number of health.
FLAME MONKEY: it was just to prevent any attack from the back.

MY BATTLE

ROUND 1

At this round, just like what I have said about serpentine spy, it eliminated furious chicken from the battle because of its health character. And also unicorn mustang eliminated my furious chicken because it was in the front of the battle.

ROUND 2

No summoner was eliminated but the health was being affected greatly. I thought I have in this round because an attack from unicorn mustang removed three health in this round but the Cerberus was restoring it. That was the major reason I used it as my attack monster.

ROUND 4

There was nothing happened in round 3. In round 4 one of the opponent's summoners got destroyed by serpentine spy which left unicorn mustang to two massive attack.

ROUND 5

I finally won the battle.

THE LESSONS I LEARNED FROM MY DEFEAT TODAY
• Defeat allows us to identify our blind spots, weakness and mistakes. Ideally, it helps us avoid making the same mistake twice. That said, I’ve learned from my greatest weaknesses more than once. But if you can't recognize the solution to your failure. You will continue to fail in that area. That is what happens to me today. I did not realize my errors.
• It helps me to become more of myself, acquired more experiences to tackle failure, and give me courage to cope with pressure.
• Today game thought me that defeat or failures are not my enemies, they happen in life. In fact they create in in my life an opportunity to correct myself, to regroup myself, to believe in myself and to accept the challenge that is in front of me, on my path towards a successful life. Just the way I did today and completed my quest.
• It exposed weakness, empower you to tackle it and teach you life lessons. A lesson as to where did you go wrong. What you have to do to improve yourself? You learn to correct all errors caused by you.
• Defeat and Failures act as a catalyst in life of some people like me. It made me reacted, react towards the positive side of winning every battle.
• Once you have failed , you would become very careful the next time. In fact you will double your vigilance. I was later very careful of the Monsters I was using and carefully selected them. It makes you very sensitive. It makes me realise what I have done, what I have lost and what could have been done.
•Defeat and Failures are the hard truth of life. You agree or not they come and they will still be coming throughout your life. You have just to be careful. Don't judge too fast, don't do any job without analysing the positive and the negative effects.
