Splinterlands is a complex game, and it allows for various cards and strategies. Each fight is different as there are various rulesets applied, and this can give specific cards an advantage depending on how you use them. In this post, I talk about a battle where I did well because I used a better placement for my cards than my opponent and my level was higher.
Rule Set, Battle, and Plan
The rulesets this time are No Man's Land and High Five. This means that no human cards can be used, and up to 5 monsters can be used. There is also 50 mana available, and I can use any splinter except for earth.
| Splinter | Mana Cost | Position | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marlai Singariel | 6 | Summoner | +1 magic |
| New Beluroc Aegis | 8 | 1st | Taunt |
| Lunaki Howler | 7 | 2nd | |
| Saltwater Mage | 8 | 3rd | Sneak |
| A'lan Musketeer | 8 | 4th | Double Strike |
| Mystic Scaleweaver | 9 | 5th | Slow |
| Total Mana: | 46 |
The focus of this lineup is to keep my monsters alive while dealing damage and outlasting my opponent. My archon is Marlai Singariel for the +1 magic. My tank is New Beluroc Aegis with taunt. My backup tank is Lunaki Howler. Following this are my major damage dealers Saltwater Mage, A'lan Musketeer, and Mystic Scaleweaver. I put Mystic Scaleweaver in the last spot in case my opponent is using sneak monsters.
Round 1
Round 3
Conclusion
I won the match because my strategy of worked out. I had higher level cards, and I think having a monster to absorb those sneak attacks was a better choice. At the same time, even if A'lan died, my magic monster would still be able to deal damage, and I can focus my damage on my opponent's tank with most of my monsters.

What did you think of my match? Was there anything you would have done differently? I think it is quite interesting to see how different players use the same card.
