Welcome back Splinterlands battlemages to another edition of "For Guild & Glory," my brawl report series covering all the action from my three accounts: 
Before I get started, I just want to point out this review is for Brawl #147, which actually ended on April 21. I've been on a bit of a holiday recently in Barcelona for the week and then Ibiza for the opening weekend at Ushuaia and Hi on April 29. But while I have a few hours before the festivities begin, I figured it was a good time to get my reports written.
For this Tier 4 brawl, the toughest opponent in our group was Samurai Soul LLAC and they have beaten us in the past - but not this time. We finished with a record 115 wins and 59 losses, six wins better than our Japanese rivals. Plan B surprised me with the 3rd place finish ahead of Wyverns, YGG Brawlers (Asgard) and both Tier 4 Peakmonster guilds. As winners of the group, we earned 189 crowns, 10800 merits, and about 165 SPS. Leading us to victory were three brawlers with impressive, undefeated 9-0 results: 
I ended with a 6-3 record defending my usual Fray 18 - Modern Gold Foil Silver League, but I could have done a little bit better. However, I did take down the important one against 
In Tier 3, YGG Brawlers (Niðavellir) was looking to run its streak of brawl wins to double digits, but The Anti Social Club stunned us by the slimmest margin - a single win! Typically 103 wins and 47 losses would be good enough for the win, but even so, we still took home 111 crowns, 6167 merits, and 48 SPS. 
Despite my solid 7-1 performance, I feel bad for not being able to squeak out that perfect record to get us over the hump and into a tie for first place that we would have won on tiebreakers. Oh well - here is my one loss against 
On the other side of Tier 3, The 420 Syndicate struggled again in its brawl group. Although I finally remembered to sign up for the right Fray 10 - Modern Gold League, it did not help very much. We finished in 9th place with a record of 47 wins and 59 losses, while it was T&A Legion II that took down 1st place. Despite the poor showing and low placement, we still earned 38 crowns, 1900 merits, and almost 28 SPS.
The standout brawlers were 
The power stones came through in a big way for DuceCrypto, who hit on two influential Gold Foil gladiators in the six cases I opened after Brawl #147, including my first GF Epic, a card I had been specifically craving for over a year! Shaelien got the minimum one rare and no Gold Foils, while TreyCrypto is waiting to open packs until I can replenish its account with more power stones.

This next brawl is going to be a real grind in Tier 4, as Shield of Glory will be facing off against three other Top10 guilds (Immortal Gods, YGG Brawlers Asgard, and RKO Outta Nowhere) as well as two more YGG guilds Knights and Dragons plus the KoG-allied No Guts No Glory.
Back in Tier 3, it appears YGG Brawlers (Niðavellir) will have an easy go of it with only one other guild in its group ranked in the Top 100 (Sabaoth). Conversely, The 420 Syndicate is in for a rough time as it has SIX guilds in its group ranked in the Top 100, while we are the 9th ranked guild at #174.
Well that's a wrap on this holiday-delayed brawl report. Despite it coming out a bit late, I hope you still enjoyed the recap, the battle highlights and my storytelling. My goal is to get Brawl Report #148 out tomorrow and then a special non-Splinterlands post about my escapades in EDM at opening weekend for ZAMNA in Barcelona and opening weekend at Ushuaia and the top-rated Club Hi in Ibiza. As always, your support is greatly appreciated, so please smash that follow button and leave a comment if you're so inclined.
Have a great weekend and I'll see you in the Splinterlands!
