Greetings to all Splinterlands players and members of the Hive gaming community! My Arena Vanguard cards are growing. I got them from jackpot, joining contests and gifts from 
These are the Arena Vanguards in my collection.
The best of them so far is Jolius Blast who is already level two and a real strong tank. The other cards although at level one are also strong and gave me an advantage in games. To show my point, consider the following game. Both of us had the same element, Light. The difference was I had two Arena Vanguards in my army.
There were no magic units therefore having a shield is a distinct advantage. So Buns the Unseen with eight shield stats is definitely better than my opponent's unicorn with only two shields.
Then there's King Erminaz Twincleaver versus Vengeful Monk. The Arena Vanguard card has more speed and a better partner to Sherringham Logger. Both have sneak skill that work in unison.
In both head to head match ups the Arena Vanguard is only level one versus a level four "regular" card but they still come out on top. It shows their potential when they level up further and gain more skills.
