Day 9 of my Splinterlands journey. Today, I decided to pay more attention to something I don’t always think about enough: the opponent. It is easy to get caught up in building my own team. I look at my

At this point, I think my cards and I have a complicated relationship. One battle, I love a card. The next battle, I never want to see it again. Then three battles later, I’m using it again like nothing

There are moments in Splinterlands when I feel like I am actually a professional strategist. I look at the cards. I check the mana. I study the rules. I think about positioning. I build my lineup. Then

Day 9 of my Splinterlands journey, and today was another reminder that having a plan does not always mean the battle will go according to that plan. I went into the battle with a pretty clear idea of what
