Hello splinterlands lovers and fans, it was really a great day for me. After series of Defeat by my competitors today, i won Gold Card at last.
I have never active in any game like splinterlands in my life time. I played splinterlands both day and night. I thought of getting system very soon to help me with the game size and some other things online. Though money is my issue; nobody hates good things.
In splinterlands, I set goals of completing my daily quest without wasting of time but ends up of being defeated by others in countless times. I have to stopped playing splinterlands for hours today after using all my strategies to fight but yet being defeated.
In this article, I just want to share the strategy I used to win this battle out of many battles I played and also important lessons I learned from it.
RULESET
• Silenced summoners: Summoners do not give any start buffs or debuffs or grant/use any abilities.
• 12 Mana
• Life, Water and Earth was available to used
SUMMONER AND MONSTERS
I used water summoner, the reason I used water and was that, I was been defeated so much to the extent my points gone down because I was given Life summoner to complete my daily quest. Hence, there was a need for me to increase my points. Therefore, I used water summoner to win this battle.
FURIOUS CHICKEN
In lower Mana battle like this, furious chicken is good as it has zero Mana cap with abilities to fight. Though if I want it to fight in this battle, I would have position it as the last monster but I used it here as a bait due to the fact that most of my monsters had lower numbers of speed or reduce by creeping ooze. Which possibly means, most of the monsters that has the same or higher number of speed will battle before mine, which probably does.
Most opponent monsters fight and nearly destroyed my attacking monster; It was furious chicken that helped me anyway.
SEA MONSTER
I deliberately placed it at the attacking monster, I would have lost the battle from second round and the game could have been concluded. It was just my main monster in this battle. I did not see any monster to fight inn because I need strong monster that can fight and defend.
ALBATROSS
The main reason I used this monster was the "thunder". It has ability to repelled thunderstorm. I have lost so many battles because of thunderstorm.
The second reason was to that, was to help me protect my attacking monster from sneaky monsters. I strategized the possibilities of sneaky monsters in the battle. But unfortunately, there was none.
MY BATTLE CHALLENGE

ROUND 1
At the start of the battle, most opponent monsters fault because the speed of my monsters were reduced by creeping ooze. Furious chicken was destroyed at a strike from enemy's monster.
ROUND 2
At this round, I was left with sea monster, while opponent still had 5 monster at the battle. Tortisian fighter which opponent used as a attacking monster could not be eliminated at once because of its armor. It took sea monster third round to destroyed it.
ROUND 5
Sea monster missed a target, the battle could have ended in round 6. But there was no way I could lose the battle again despite of the missed. The striking force of the remaining monster can only remove 2 health from seas monster which had the ability to increase it the ends of each round.
ROUND 7
Without wasting my time and ink. Level 6 was bizarre. It was just for creeping ooze elimination. Pirate Archer was for this round. As we know that this monster is very fragile in level one.
DOES YOUR STRATEGY WORKS?
It works perfectly, I won heavily.it was a game with conscious planned work because I need a win at all cost. I selected perfectly.
MY REWARDS
I was rewarded with a captain ghost gold and warrior of peace.
THE LESSON I LEARNED
• Discover your hidden abilities to prevent you from delay: with all strategies to reached my daily quest was futile for hours. Until I started carefully selected monsters to battle.
In life, you can still be in the same position for years just because you have not understand what it takes to move to the next position or level.
Sometimes, your hidden abilities is required to get to next level such as talent, wisdom and gifts. If you have not discovered it, you may not have access to next level.
• Don't give room for frustration: I was frustrated to the extent I stopped playing the game. Frustration can not solve issues but rather aggravated it. People have been frustrated to the extent of committing suicide across the world in so many departments of life.
I read an article of many peoples committing suicide because of debt yet, at the end of of everything the law said that the families of the demised should pay the debt.
I also read an article of people that has nothing to eat and therefore frustrated to burgled houses to get food stuffs instead of using their knowledge to look for what they are wanting. Committing burglary offense is punishable by laws. This is the act of "from frying pan to fire". There are people who are still willing to help the needy across the world.
My conclusion is that, never allowed you negative emotions to control you or have power of will over you. It only brings bad side if you out and leave you in frustration.
Good rewards you ended up getting. Can't complain with that.
Thanks for sharing!
