What is Splinterlands?

Splinterlands (also known as Steemmonsters) is a digital card game created by aggroed@aggroed and yabapmatt@yabapmatt. Early game release has launched and prizes are already up for grabs. You can start playing or investing in Splinterlands today by clicking here.


As most already know the Splinterlands game is currently on its third edition of cards called UNTAMED. Some claim these cards are overpowered compared to their Alpha and Beta counter parts.

I personally think its too soon to come to such a conclusion but there's an easy fix if that claim ends up being true. No its not nuke the UNTAMED edition but instead lets introduce the game version, Classic Steemmonsters (Splinterlands).

The classic version will only allow monsters in play that are from the Alpha + Beta versions. No added rewards are needed so this wouldn't cost anything except the time it takes to implement. What I'm suggesting is a redistribution of what is already being given out.

For example take the current allotted tournament prize money and split it 50/50 with half going to tournaments sponsoring the "Classic" version of the game and the other 50% for regular tournaments.

I know there's already some Alpha only tournaments but what I'm suggesting is much more than just adding the odd Alpha/Beta only tournaments. Make it a big announcement, Newly Introduced Splinterland Classic (Steemmonsters).

Give the classic version its own tournament lobby and have it displayed side by side with the one that's currently there or an in game tab in which we can switch back and forth between lobbies. I think doing this will up the interest in the Alpha and Beta edition cards big time.

New Ruleset Idea From blog-beginner@blog-beginner

I would also like to highlight some new ruleset ideas that blog-beginner@blog-beginner suggested just a couple short days ago. I personally like his ideas and thought I would share them within this post. If you like his ideas feel free to head on over and give his original topic an upvote.

Exchange buffs or debuffs:

In this one I propose that the buffs or debuffs which are provided by a summoner should be exchanged. i.e. If I use Natura Lyanna it typically adds a life to each of my summoned monsters. In this ruleset it should add life to the opponent's summoner ers. Also if the opponent choses the Malric Inferno it ideally adds a mele attack to all summoned mele attack monsters. Instead it should do it for the opponents.

Inverse buffs or debuffs:

In this ruleset I propose an inverse buff or debuff. If I chose Malric Inferno and the opponent choses Alric Stormbringer then ideally it adds a mele attack to friendly summoners and adds a magic attack to opponents summoners. Instead it should reduce mele attack of friendly summoners and reduce a magic attack of opponents summoners.

What do you think? Would you like a "Classic" Steemmonsters lobby and games introduced? Do you like the Exchange buffs, Inverse buffs game modes? Do you have a suggestion of your own? Give your opinions below in the comment section.
