How I Fell in Love with Splinterlands: A Personal Journey || A Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge Entry

If we talk about gaming, I have been fond of playing games since childhood. My father used to work in Saudi Arabia. About 25 years ago, my father brought a game from Saudi Arabia that we used to connect to the television. we all family used to play it. It had snake games, racing cars, and various other games. We used to play those games with great enthusiasm. But when I started working online, my first online game was splinterlands. I came to know about this splinterlands from the Hive community. Since I used to write blogs on Hive and upload videos on ThreeSpeak, I found Hive to be great platforms and I got to know about Splendorland through Hive community . When I used to read splinterlands articles of different people on Hive, I had a passion and a desire to play the splinterlands game. But I didn't have that much money at that time and I didn't invest. I couldn't, but when I earned some money and bought the splinterlands game spellbook with the rewards I earned, when I bought the spellbook, one thing was on my mind that how would I play this game? When I logged in, I didn't know how to play the game at all. I didn't understand what these cards were, what these Summoner were, what these monsters were. I had no idea about these things and how the battle-line is formed, how the best monsters are selected , the qualities of the cards, their speed, their attacking method. I didn't know about all these things. So I slowly learned it from the splinterlands community and today I consider the splinterlands game as my family game. My children also play it whenever they get a chance. This was a short journey that I took at the beginning of this game,

When a person plays any game, a community is needed to play that game and some people in the community are very cooperative but I have seen that online games have many good things when a person joins them, registers there and also makes an investment but there is no support from the community at all but the splinterlands game is a unique game when I joined this splinterlands game I had no idea how to play this game but whenever I went to the community or the team to get information about something I did not know then I used to go to Discord and ask in the community group and I was guided in a very good and polite way it was the community guideline which enabled me to understand and play this splinterlands game and I hope to progress. Let me also tell you that when I first started playing splinterlands game I was very bored. I didn't like this game at all because whenever I played a battle in this game, I used to lose and when I lost, I would get disappointed. I used to lose because I was having trouble forming the battle line. But I initially stopped playing splinterlands for three to four months. Then when I started playing the game again, I decided that I would learn this Game and understand it and play this game. Because when I stopped playing this splinterlands and got disappointed, at that time I thought that I would never play splinterlands again. But then when people in the communities wrote articles on splinterlands and wrote about the victories of the battle, whenever I read an article about splinterlands Game, my passion was revived and again I thought that why not play splinterlands again and thus I started playing again and I am still playing till today. When a person learns and understands this Game, then after understanding, when the game is played, the pleasure comes at that time. And I will also tell you that if you are a new player of the splinterlands and you are not feeling well, then you should learn it, understand it and when you understand it, you will find this Game to be the best game in the world and I believe that splinterlands is the best decentralized game in the world at this time.

What was your first card or most memorable early battle?Splinterlands is a great game that creates passion within you. At the beginning, when I started playing after learning the Splinterlands , I got better victories, then and till today, there were two cards that were my favorites and one of them was the Water Elemental. The Water Elemental was a card that recovered one-third of its health at the end of each round. This card had healing power. Whenever an enemy attacked this card, at the end of the round, this card healed some of its health. Thus, I liked this card very much. I got a lot of victories from this card. And if the Battle had a low mana or a high mana, my wish was to add the Water Elemental card to the Battle lineup. Thus, it was my best card and favorite card. One of the features of this card is that it healed itself and recovered some of its health. This card has a very high speed. It used to attack its opponent very quickly and it is a range attacker card. This card is still in my lineup and whenever I get a chance I use this card. But it has been a few months now and I have not used this card because I was busy and I was not playing very well. But whenever I feel the need, I think this is my best and favorite card. This card used to give me victory in the best battle at that time. When I was playing the splinterlands game as new player, this is one of my favorite cards.

Apart from Water Elemental, my other favorite card in the beginning and still is is Sea Monster. Sea Monster was a very giant type of monster like big giant monster and this Sea Monster card also has the feature that it also healed some of its health at the end of each round. This means that it also has the power to heal itself. That is why I liked this card a lot and I still like this card because I have won many battle with this card. If I were to say which of the two, the Element Water Elemental and Sea Monster, was my favorite card, I would say that both of these cards were my favorites because the Water Elemental card, when battle was low mana,that time my was the first choice Water Elemental at that time, in low mana battle , water elemental was best and if battle was big mana, I used Sea Monster. I would like to say that whenever you like a card, you like it because of how it gives you victories. Sea Monster is a card that has very good health but low speed, while Water Elemental has very fast attack speed but very weak health. Thus, Sea Monster is powerful in terms of health and Water Elemental is very powerful in terms of speed. If we look at the ability to attack, both cards play very aggressively and attack their enemies very hard. Whenever these two cards attack their enemies, they cause a lot of damage to the enemy. So these two cards are palced to the front line to attack on opponent. Sea Monster is not a range attacker, but a melee attacker, while Water Elemental is a range attacker. Thus, these two cards were my favorite cards in the beginning when I was playing the splinterlands game and even today I think that these cards are among my favorite cards.

Every user who plays splinterlands ownedthe desire to have big and powerful cards, but each card requires investment to buy. Just as all players want to have big and powerful cards in their lineup, I also want to have big and powerful cards in my lineup. But I think that if we look at the past, I have invested as much as I could in this splinterlands and I have bought many good cards according to my investment. But at the moment, my biggest desire is to have one hundred thousand SPS in my stake and I have also tried to buy SPS coin, but due to financial problems or financial difficulties, I cannot buy SPS coin. Apart from that, I initially bought SPS worth a thousand dollars from the gate exchange, but market has also gone down and due to the market being down, their value has also decreased. but my biggest wish at the moment is to somehow stake 50,000 SPS coins. Apart from that, I have a plot that is in working position and is also producing, so I want to buy a couple more plots and start them for production. Apart from that, I also want to buy the main Dark Energy Crystal token and save it and hold it. Apart from that, I also want to buy more new monster cards and Summoner that can improve my battle lineup. So there are many goals that I want to achieve. And I think that the price of SPS coins is very low at the moment and I should invest in some of them. And I will try to buy SPS coins little by little and invest. So my biggest wish at the moment is to stake 50,000 SPS and also buy good cards and I want to improve the production of my plot and buy one or two more plots and start production on them. These are my goals.lets See when my goals are completed. But a person should try, keep the goals good and a person should also work hard to achieve these goals. So I think that this plan and game is a great game and I am satisfied with my investment. It is true that the market is very down at the moment and the value of the investment I made in the past has decreased, but I am not worried. I am satisfied that my investment will give profit in the coming days. And I thank you all very much for taking the time to read my article.
