Hello everyone, in case you don't know Splinterforge uses Splinterlands NFT's and allows you to get even more reward with a minimal investment. Today i will explain to you how to start your Splinterforge journey and get a competitive account. Few days ago I purchased an alt account for splinterlands, and of course I will take advantage from Splinterforge to maximize my rewards. Since i alredy have a good account, i used my Forge to purchase some NFT's to power up my new account. You can buy them in the market. I bought these items : And it cost me a total of 5742 Forge. It is necessary to buy these in order to max your hero stats and get full rewards. With this NFT's we just get 50% of the rewards but it will be good for now.

I also used 1000 electrum to put a socket in two items to be able to imbue the runes. Electrum is an ingame token that you can earn by playing so you might need to play a bit with a free line up to earn some.

Basic team

To get that Electrum I recommend playing this line up witch is pretty cheap and gets decent results.

I have been playing with this monsters and i get around 0.5 and 2 Forge wich I used to rent some Splinterlands cards, including the cards we are going to need on the following line up.

Earnings with double energy.

Premium Team

When we have our hero equipped with all our items, we will be able to play 2 Life and 2 Water monsters without their respective summoners. And the line up we will use is the following:

*Actually this team could be better changing Djinn Apprentice and Merdaali Guardian for Swamp Spitter and Creeping Ooze, but it is a Soulbound card and i currenly don't have it in my account.
Renting this cards cost me 4.475 DEC, wich todays is around 21 Forge
With this team i am earning way more than before:

Earnings with double energy.

This team is usually good enough to make it to the leaderboard (depending on the boss habilities) wich is our main goal since it increases your earnings expinentially.

For those of you who love the ROI, it is around 28 days using this strategy and asuming you play 17 games a day (the max total energy) and earn an average of 12 Forge per battle.
But if we add the assumption that every four days you get to the leaderbords and earn 400 extra Forge on average the ROI goes down to 20 days, which sounds awesome to me.

All these are aproximations and assumptions so don't take it for granted, just to guide you.

I hope you found this guide useful and that it helps getting started in Splinterforge, to get better and better i recommend reinvesting your Forge in better items. Also i encourage you to make some changes on the team to get better results depending on the special habilities the boss has (they can change a lot the eficiency of this team).
Have fun on Splinterforge😁
