Splinterlands - Making Newbie Mistakes
Hi Splinterfans,
I have been playing Splinterlands now for over 2 weeks and I wanted to let you know some of the newbie mistakes that I've made so that you can avoid them if you are starting out on Splinterlands.
The first mistake I have made is to rent cards that im not using. I am mostly focusing on my earth splinter but have anyway rented cards that im not using.
This isn't good for your P&L so it's best to focus to rent cards that you will use. Therefore I tried to cancel the cards to save DEC.
The next newbie mistake that you might know of is a classic and it can quickly deplete your DEC supplies in a hurry. Here I have for some reason pressed the "MAX" button in Peakmonsters and instead of renting out a level 1 card for 0.1 DEC per day, the price bumps up to 2.8 DEC per day! Do not press that max button as I did! lol
That's a huge jump up and can destroy your crypto wallet pretty quickly. It wouldn't be so bad if you could use the stronger cards, but you get a warning that you don't have a strong enough summoner to use them, and might not make sense in the lower leagues.
I eventually rented some level 2 Summoner that allowed me to use level 2 monsters. But needed to cancel these MAX level monsters that were way above my Summoner level.
Buying SPS, Transfer to Splinterlands, and Staking
The last thing I wanted to share was not a mistake but just a tip for those wanting to know how to buy SPS, stake them and transfer them to Splinterlands.
To buy SPS tokens, you can do this in the Hive Engine. Once purchased you can go to Beeswap and then transfer from your Hive Engine wallet to your Splinterlands wallet.
First click on your wallet in Beeswap and then select your Hive Engine wallet. You should then see SPS in the list and you can click on the double arrow sign to transfer these tokens to your Splinterlands wallet.
Once there you can then click next to where it says Hive Engine into your Splinterlands wallet and you should see your SPS tokens there now. From here you can also click the "lock" sign to stake your SPS tokens.
It is also possible to claim any SPS airdrop tokens you have here, so make sure to do that.
The final thing to check is back in the Splinterlands game to see your freshly staked tokens. Next to the DEC balance is the SPS management button and you should see your staked tokens there. Click on it and you will get more info like below:
Here you can see my staked SPS tokens are now at work earning me 34,72% APR! As you could do in Beeswap, you can also stake and unstake here and also claim your SPS airdrop tokens.
Thanks for reading!

I am making NO mistake in Splinterlands! Not playing the game could be my only mistake! 😆
Voted on ListNerds!
!LOL 😅🚀 You would love it. I'm sure they played it on DS9 before too! !CTP
I have an account, played for about 2 weeks, turned $100 worth of sps into over $300(the price really spiked at some point) but that's it, for now there's not enough time to play.
Great move. I hope you will find some time to come back to the game at some point. It does seem one of the best. !LUV
I'm more excited about the upcoming Ragnarock game, I'm also running two nodes for this, maybe more in the future.
It looks like it will be epic. I need to set up a node too, i feel like im missing out without one.
Mistakes are part of every journey, I am glad you enlightened other newbies to avoid the same mistake you made. What a big heart you have got.
Thanks George for your kind word! !PIZZA !ALIVE

In my case, I just rent cards that I will use in battle only for 1 day. As for buysing SPS, SPT, and DEC, I find LeoDex very helpful.

Thanks for the tips! !CTP
Renting #Splinterlands Cards just for 24 hours is recommended when you have a Focus Quest on a Splinter in which you don't have great Cards for. 🤓
Have a !PIZZA! 😁
Just focusing on Water and Earth. If I won't have them, I just skip the DF and wait for another day. 😆
!PGM
If you don't want to work on the Daily Focus, then you would lose on the Daily Rewards. 😮 Do you mean that it's not worth it for you to rent Cards for just 24 hours to play on your Daily Focus? 🤔
Thanks for the !PGM! 😀

I have never played this game. But I noticed that many people in this platform are discussing about this game and because of the time also feeling interested to play that .
Am I the only one who finished reading the post without understanding 😂!!? But i an quite sure that after play that game I will understand many things.
It was the same for me when I first started! 😅

I see a lot of posts about this game but I haven't played it yet. I had a look at the website but it looked too complicated for me. I may give it a go sometime. I'm sure your tips will come in handy.
If you get some time, give it a go. Thanks for dropping by. !CTP
Looks like you are learning the ropes fairly quickly! I wouldn't worry too much about making a few small mistakes here and there. Everyone does it from time to time! Pretty soon you will be wiping me off the floor in matches!
Thanks Bozz! I wont let it get to me. Having fun learning the different aspects of the game. Its more complex than I had imagined. !CTP !PIZZA
