The word is out. There's a new foil in town...BLACK FOIL(Note: YouTube video on this topic is available at the bottom of this blog) What is it and what does it do?Little is known about the elusive "Black Foil", and what we DO know, is speculative at best!

Hello HIVE!I'm straying a little from my normal @splinterlands content to tell you all about a recent "vacation" I had planned over Valentines day! I hope you enjoy it! Let me know if you want to hear more stories like this about my world outside of Web3 gaming!

CREATING A DECK & RENTING CARDS!Greetings and welcome to another New Player guide from your friendly neighborhood Psiderman!Today is my birthday! So I figured what better a way to celebrate than to write an article and record a video for YOU, oh fair Praetorian! It feels strange to now be closer to 50 than 40, but the AI face recognition systems seem to think I look 31, so I'll take that as a win. Wear your sunscreen and you too could look as handsome as me in your old age! Hardy-har-har!

CHALLENGES & CONTESTS!Greetings Praetorians!It's hard to believe the first season of 2 ongoing challenges and contests have already come and gone!What CHALLENGES?? What CONTESTS?? It's almost as though you haven't been reading each of my posts with baited breath, whilst eagerly awaiting the next!

HOW TO: POWER UP & INCREASE YOUR HP!Greetings, Praetorians!The other day, I wanted to increase my HIVE POWER. I was sending some HBD from my main @splinterlands account to my alt account, but didn't want to lower my KE-Ratio (Krampus Co-efficient) because that would make my account look like it existed solely to extract HIVE from the ecosystem, something that is frowned upon. This meant I had to convert the HBD (Hive Backed Dollars) I'd been earning from my posts into HIVE, then use that HIVE to "Power Up" my account by increasing my "staked" HIVE, AKA: POWERING UP my HIVE account!

Greetings Praetorians!It is I, the Psi, back with another article in my "Path to Power" (P2P) series designed to help new players navigate the wonderful world of Splinterlands!In this article we will be discussing some of the Glint strategies my new account (thepsilence) is using to get helpful cards and become more competitive. I'll be covering what I spend my glint on, as well as some of the cards I feel are "must haves" that you should prioritize to maximize impact.
