This week in Splinterlands was packed with new strategies, community engagement, and some big updates that kept both the gameplay and forums buzzing.
Personal Gameplay Updates
I focused on optimizing my deck for the upcoming changes in the Modern format, especially since the Chaos Legion edition is rotating out. This meant scouting for new cards and keeping an eye on the market for good deals, especially as new editions approach.
Land management became a bigger part of my routine. I started utilizing my Epic land plot more actively—producing resources, crafting, and preparing for the anticipated Land Expansion 2.0. The community expects some price shifts when the expansion goes live, so preparation is key.
I continued to grind ranked matches, but with the Wild format being free this season, I experimented with some older cards and strategies that I hadn’t used in a while.
What Was Interesting in the Forums
Community Engagement Challenge: There’s a renewed push for community-driven content, with players sharing their favorite battles, 2024 reviews, and goals for 2025. Many are optimistic about new challenges and the influx of new players this year.
Land Expansion Discussions: A lot of forum chatter centered on how to maximize land plots and prepare for the upcoming Land Expansion 2.0. Players are sharing strategies for resource production and speculating about potential price jumps once the expansion is announced.
Modern Format Rotation: With the CL edition phasing out of Modern, many threads are dedicated to deck-building advice and which cards are best to invest in for future formats. Players are also discussing the best time to buy into new editions to avoid price spikes.
Survival Mode Anticipation: There’s growing interest in the rumored Survival Mode, expected to release soon. While some are skeptical about its grindy nature and pay-to-win elements, others are eager to try it out for new rewards and gameplay variety.
Alt Account Strategies: Players with older accounts are debating whether to keep grinding with legacy cards (especially in Brawls and Wild) or to consolidate assets and focus on their main accounts, given the shifting meta and rewards structure.
Forum Vibes and Community Spirit
The forums remain a hub for sharing strategies, venting frustrations, and celebrating victories. There’s a strong sense of camaraderie, with many players emphasizing the importance of staying engaged, learning from each other, and adapting to the ever-evolving game.
Blogging and content creation are still highly encouraged, both for personal rewards and for contributing to the broader Splinterlands knowledge base. The Social Media and Community Engagement challenges are especially popular, offering incentives for sharing insights and experiences.
Final Thoughts
This week was all about preparation and adaptation—whether it’s upgrading decks, planning for land expansion, or engaging with the vibrant community. The forums are alive with strategy, speculation, and support, making it a great time to be active in Splinterlands.
