Hello Hivians and the Splinterlands community.
I finally made the decision to dive into games on Hive, specifically—Splinterlands. After reading a lot of posts for beginners, I found out that starting with the campaign mode is the best option. It allows you to learn the ropes of the game before moving to the wild world of PvP (player versus player) ranked battles.
As a beginner, campaign mode was the perfect training ground for a good understanding of how the game works. I learned about card positioning, speed, and magic attacks. I spent a lot of time figuring out how to maximize my team inside tight mana limits, placing a sturdy tank upfront and protecting my ranged attackers at the back. It actually taught me how to think strategically about every single card placement.
I have finally reached the stage where I have to choose my primary anchor element. I am not really sure which one to choose yet, since this determines the strategy I will work with from here onward. After doing some research and practicing in the campaign, here is what I realized about the elements:
Now that I am wrapping up the campaign, the real test is about to begin. I haven't played a real PvP match against a human opponent yet. I know playing with a real human opponent with unpredictable strategies will be entirely different from the matches in the campaign, but it's time to move on to the real challenge.
Since I am still new to the Splinterlands ecosystem, I would love to hear any advice from all the pros and experienced gamers out there.
Thank you for reading my post
