What I like about Splinterlands is that the game is so different for everyone of us. I love to play Death for example but I also like dragon. The fact that with dragon you can actually play the dragon splinter, the neutral splinter and the splinter of your choice makes it pretty interesting :-)
I have picked this post on behalf of the @OurPick project and it will be highlighted in the next post! 
Thank you! Yes, so many aspects to the game it can be as shallow or as in-depth as you want to get with it and I think that's what makes it "work" for so many people.
