I will use Djinn Oshannus as my example. You can see on 1st level, this monster is having 2 magic damage, with 5 speed and 10 health point. He also got void abilities.If you have 2nd level of it, this monster will gain 1 health point addition and the phase ability, which makes huge different on the magic battles ! Because now he can evade those annoying poison and affliction from enemies with low speed such as dr. blight. Then on 3rd level, this monster is having forcefield ability which makes him a great tank against brutal enemies with 5 or more damage which will reduce into just 1 damage on him ! Last on the 4th monster, this monster will get 1 magic damage addition which makes his damage into 3.
You can see how the level of monster can affect their stats and/or skills, and with better stats and/or abilities, you can use them with better strategy to counter your enemies.
There is league cap on Splinterlands which will limit the max cards level based on the league, but it's only effective on the brawl and tournament, because Splinterlands already erase those max limit cards rules on the rank battle. So, if you regularly playing on ranked battle, it is very recommended to have your cards into max level in order to stay competitive with powerfull deck.
How to Easily Level Up Splinterlands Cards
There is several ways to level up Splinterlands cards, but for me, the most easily method is by using 3rd party website on https://peakmonsters.com/ . You can easily jump into the site by clicking the link.
You will directed into the home page, and you need to login by clicking on the right above of the page.
You will find several option to login, but for me, hive keychain is the most common use for all transaction on hive, so I just use it. After you fill your username, click the login button.
After you succesfully login, you will find new menu on the top of the site. Click the my cards button.
You will find sort of cards on your deck, includes all the cards you are rented. Then on the right panel, there is filter features which is very usefull to easily find cards you want to upgrade
For example, I check the box of own cards (cause you can only upgrade your own cards, not the rented one), then I also choose the reward of rebellion series cards, with rare rarity category.
Now we can chose the cards we want to upgrade by clicking the "up logo" with green colour. I chose the level 1 chaos adjutant as example.
Now we will see the combine option. We can chose the level of combine and the information of cards needed to level up into that level. As example, I chose the level 2, which required 5 cards. We can also check the cards we want to burn as the upgrade material. If there is cards which is still on 1st level but having more than 1 bcx, put them first. Or maybe you are a collector of certain code of cards, you can uncheck them and chose other cards as material instead.
After you done chose the level and materials, just click the confirm button on the bottom right of the screen.
It will take a while for the process to be done, but it won't be that long. You can try refresh the page in 10 seconds to check it, which mostly succesfull already.
Voila ! You got the leveled up cards ! Now you can go to the battlefield and start battling with better cards !
Cards to Prioritize
Now we already know how to upgrade the cards, next question will be, which cards should we leveled up?
It's all depend on the purpose of the leveling up cards. If your reason is for getting stronger deck on the battefield, then my suggestion is simply level up all cards possible because we don't need to burn any dec or sps to get it done. You can also seek for each cards potential which will help you a lot on the battlefield, then you can try to get it by the market, or by the glint shop if it's the current reward series cards.
If your reason is for renting cards, then find the level which having the highest APR (but don't forget it might be temporary, you need to predict if the price will stay on long or short period). Don't forget that you can get the cards back into all 1 bcx after combined, so think carefully because you might having difficulty selling leveled up cards.
Conclussion
Getting cards leveled up is very important on Splinterlands because cards will get stats or/and ability improvement by their level getting up as well. With more ability and better stats, cards will be more usefull in order to get the victory on this game. You can easily level up your cards by using https://peakmonsters.com/ by following the tutorial that I share above. It is recommended to level up all cards possible if you want to get stronger on the rank battle, and find cards with great potential to help you then level them up ! All combined cards can't be uncombined, so please be carefull before doing it !
