My first ever Steem Monsters battle!

in #steemmonsters6 years ago

Yesterday I learned a lot about Steem Monsters so I wanna give @senstless, @gniksivart, @holoz0r and @mattclarke a shout out for helping me out yesterday and for motivating me to play with my cards. Cos you're not gonna believe this! I actually played a couple of games! After months of owning cards I finally got to play with them!!!

And you know what? I flipping won both games!!

😱😱😱

Granted the first was a practice game (and it took me ages to figure out how to play a proper game), but my point is I still don't really know how to play and what the numbers all mean. I just winged it and BOOM! Sister got lucky!

I legit should go buy a lotto ticket tomorrow.

The one thing I figured out was I could only select players according to how much mana is specified on the game cos otherwise it wouldn't let me hit Battle.

Another thing I figured out, and that was after playing the practice round, is that I can't play on my phone because there's not enough room for everything, and that's the first for me with my Note 8!

This also might explain why @o07 was playing Steem Monsters on his monstrous tab when they were out here in Dec, cos now I'm on my tab writing this post because it's where my battle screenshots are.

The battle was nerve wracking. I think it's mainly because I knew I was winging it and I reckon moving forward it'll be less of a stress out if I actually knew what I was doin/playing with.

That said, I did know that Eleven Cutthroat was gonna be handy judging by @mattclarke's reaction when I got the card from my booster pack opening, so I had to chuck that in the fray.

And the little trooper didn't disappoint.

In the end.....

Tell you what tho. As soon as I finished that last battle I wanted to go again!! The Steem Monsters addiction is REAL!

Those who want to take that addiction a step further as we head towards the end of the current season, check out old mate @holoz0r's Steem Monsters Competition!.

Brother wants to delegate a deck for 7 days! How cool is that! Go head on over and check it out!

Have a great Saturday everyone!

I don't have an Elven cutthroat. Bought most of my cards in Alpha, (cutthroat is Beta only) and I've only been buying Flesh golems and earning reward cards ever since.
Congratulations on a couple of great wins.
Have you combined your cards together to make them stronger yet? Or do you prefer to keep them loose as singles?
If you want to play your daily quest and win new cards, its better to combine.

Ahhh... So there's new cards in the Betas that the Alphas dont have.... That's handy to know 👍

And actually I just might combine a few cards to see how I go with them. Thanks for the tip Matt!

What a coincidence I also got a delegated deck yesterday and started Playing Steemmonsters. I am already in Bronze II in ranking which shows how crazily I played yesterday.

Currently I an having power issues otherwise I would be still grinding for the Champion league.

I dont actually have a delegated deck. I was told to invest in cards last year and have been buying packs here and there and only got to play them yesterday lol I'm a late bloomer 😁

Damn you're ranked already! Well done to you! It's addictive isn't it?

What power issue? Sounds like its cutting into your fun time. 😣

Can I consider this an entry for my contest? I'd love to see how a powerful deck corrupts a new player! :D

Congrats on your victories. Now we just need to get you playing enough games to complete some dailies and get you stacking those reward cards to help round out your decks ;)

Thank you :) I was actually trying to play dailies but couldn't find the link or button on my screen for it 😁

Looking forward to my very first reward card!!

I can play on my phone, just required some scrolling and being annoyed XD I've kind of just remembered where all the cards are so I'll be screwed if I buy boosters and get different cards XD

I play just long enough to get the daily quest, otherwise I'd probably play too much.
