Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge: Training Mode!

Namaste to all fellow players of Splinterlands!

This week's Splinterlands Community Engagement Challenge is an invite to explain everything about the amazing Training Mode which replaces Practice Mode offering players a customizable experience to test decks, explore new tactics, and prepare for competitive play—all without the risk of losing rating points.

Let's understand step by step about this amazing feature.

What is Training Mode?

Training mode in Splinterlands gives you the opportunity to test your strategies in your desired conditions and let me tell you that this will prove useful not only for beginners but also for players of every level because victory in Splinterlands battles is not ensured by your better cards but by your experience and strategies. Through this mode, you can practice your strategies in the desired battlefield conditions and that too without the risk of losing rating points.

How to access this Mode?

On the top right side of your battle page, you will see this option named Training between Challenge and How to Play.

On clicking it, this page will open and you will see these 3 options, by clicking on which you can ensure the DIFFICULTY, ALLOWED CARDS and SUMMONER LEVEL CAPS as per your wish for this training battle.

The point to note here is that you cannot set the mana cap and rule set because there is no option to choose this in Real Battlefield as well.

The benefits of playing against automated opponents.

Like the challenge mode here you do not challenge any fellow player but your battle is with an automated opponent for which you don't have to wait at all. So it's like any real battle on Splinterlands where you only control the difficulty level, cards and summoner. This means you can test your skills against a different automated opponent every time in a real battlefield with the same conditions without affecting your in-game ratings. And when I say different opponents, it is because you are fighting an automated opponent, he will create a team with random strategies in different situations and you can practice any of your strategies in different difficulty levels and sharpen your skills without affecting your in-game ratings.

Tips to make the best use of this mode.

Analyse every battle: Focus not on victory or defeat but on how the battle took place and who dominated whom in different situations. If your team is repeatedly facing pressure, then changes will be needed. If a card does not perform well in certain conditions, then you should know about it. Feel free to use any strategy, often the simplest strategies prove to be the most effective.

Go Slow! Start with easy difficulty and gradually move to medium and then hard. This will help you improve at every level. Don't get overexcited after winning a few battles, keep trying to improve yourself with different difficulties, cards and summoners.

Experiment with Ghost Cards.

Here in the allowed cards section, you will find the option of Ghost Cards. This basically allows you to take your practice to the next level as with this mode, you can practice with rare, higher level and expensive cards without paying anything.

This is a screenshot of one of my battles with Ghost Mode where you can see various rare and expensive cards, none of which are currently in my deck, but I can still test my strategies with them, which will help me in choosing cards when I buy them in the future and I will already know their nuances and with this much freedom I also can refine new strategies.

That's all for today!
