Playing Splinterlands is not just a game for me, its like a battlefield where every decision, every card selection, even mental preparation is a battle. And in the midst of this battle, I played a match one day that made me question my own decisions after losing. Looking at my opponent, I was sure that this match was in my pocket. I had already looked at his battle history and saw that he always played in the same way, not changing his team formation much. So using my experience, I arranged an aggressive fire team with Malric Inferno on the front, then leveled speed cards and a bunch of magic attackers. I was quite confident in myself, this time I have to teach the little boy.
But as soon as the match started, my face fell. The boy had completely changed his formation. He used Thorns ability and high health tank. My aggressive attackers were falling one by one like catching a bird in a net. In the whole game, no card on my team could do its job properly. I just watched as my empire collapsed on the battlefield. The loss was not just a match, it was like an ego blow. I understood that sometimes overconfidence leads to darkness. I took the game too lightly, and this negligence became the main reason for my downfall.
However, this loss taught me a big lesson never take your opponent lightly. In Splinterlands, every match is different, every decision is important. And most importantly, no one is a 'sure winner' here. Anyone who can turn the match around with their own strategy and thinking Can. Then I made some changes in my playing style. Not just habits, but I started playing with analysis, strategy and a flexible mindset, these three things in mind. I still remember the pain of losing, but that made me stronger, more focused.
The last thing is that Splinterlands is not just a card game, it is a platform for intelligence, patience and surpassing yourself again and again. Losing is not a bad thing, if you learn from that loss and know how to turn around.
This was my story of unexpectedly losing in a fight. Have you ever lost a match that you were sure you would win Dont forget to share your experience.
