Hello Splinterlands Gladiators! Today I'll be sharing our recent Guild Brawl, buying and opening 8 Gladius Cases.
Battle Performance and Guild Rank
I did somewhat fine this time contributing 5 wins out of 9 or more than 50% win rate. I'm pleased that I was able to carry my weight and help my guild earn some Merits and SPS.
Our guild ranked 6th overall and we earned a decent amount of 5,300 merits and 60 SPS. Including the previous Brawl and end of season Merits, I have over 16,000 Merits to spend. I bought eight Gladius Cases or a total of 40 cards to be added to my collection and upgrade my deck.
Opening Gladius Packs
The first pack contains a Quora and one rare card. A great start! The next one included a Katrelba Gobson, probably the best common card in the set.
The third pack has two rare cards including Captain Katie, one of my sought after cards.
The sixth pack is another epic card and a Katrelba Gobson. It also has Isgald Vorst, a good card to partner with Deeplurker.
Finally the seventh and eighth packs also contained an Isgald Vorst and Katrelba Gobson.
There were a couple of cards that I was able to level up after this purchase.
My Gladiator Card Collection
Common
My common cards are at level 3 and 4. I'd like to upgrade to 5 the cards that I use most like Katrelba and Bertrol Gobson as well as Isgald Vorst. They are very strong for a common card.
Rare
My rare cards are at level 2 and 3. My most used cards here are Orella Abadon and Captain Katie. Alfredo and Cutter Brieze are also good because they are low mana. I'm looking to upgrade them to 4.
Epic
My most used card is Quora followed by Marisol Contuma. My goal for the epics is level 3.
Legendary
I'm happy with my legendary cards especially my Gold Foil Fina Voxom. I'm still missing Jini Guise and Tatiana Blayde though. I hope I get them one of these days.
Sample Battles
Battle 1 - Queen of the Dragons in action
I don't often have the opportunity to use Larissa Kerato in battles so I'm happy that I was able to in this one. Her Double Strike and Bloodlust abilities are pretty deadly in this battle.
Battle 2 - Fina the Flame Empress
In this battle, Fina outclasses the opposition. She's the best card in this battle and could probably take the enemy by herself.
Final Thoughts
Guild Brawls is not only fun, it's also another way to earn SPS and increase your card collection. Gladiator cards are very strong, even the commons like Katrelba Gobson so having them will strengthen your deck. If you are not a member of a guild yet then join one immediately so you can participate in Brawls.
