If you could coach me just into the first tier of gold I would pay you the assistance. I am currently fluctuating between single and double sword silver.

I accept donnations lol

What is the benefit of surrendering and in what situations does it make sense to surrender?

Some really good insights here that will go along way in helping newer players, thanks for this! and re-steem'd!

Great write up. I think it will help a lot of players.

Although there are endless ways to play the game, watching the top players - they usually play the following principles as their core:

  • play ranged attack to avoid magic reflect or thorns and retaliate.
  • play double attack (double snipe, double sneak).
  • counter a double attack (eg. turtle/friendly giant/hydra at the back to counter sneak).
  • increase your speed or reduce opponents speed.

In my opinion anyway the top players utilise the above. After that it's basically scissors paper rock when 2 top players face off. Players not following these core principles get smashed most times.

Thanks 😀

Glad at least someone else is sharing my opinion about the legendary summoners unbalancing the game, lol. I was too quick publishing my post yesterday - I didn't know they were working on a solution... :0)

Glad I took your advice in the SM Discord and came over to this post while waiting for Matt to fix the site.

When Steemmonsters got started, I expected I would never be able to understand the game. Over the months, I have learned a lot, and I'm still learning every day. Only recently I realized I had been neglecting the power of the double sneak/double snipe ability.

So I try to pay more attention to it, although I often forget. Old habits are hard to break. :0)
(It's probably one of the reasons you are one of the few players I meet in Silver/Gold tourneys that I haven't been able to beat yet, lol)

It's much easier to relate with these moves and analysis with such maxed cards, but very harder to relate with low ranked cards.

All the same, the analysis is dope and the strategy makes a lot of sense.

Do you think the game needs more marketing though?

First time here and first time knowing about this game , thats pretty cool !

While I am really looking forward to the card delegations I have my doubts it will get much action but I am happy to be proven wrong.

Nevertheless very well and detailed written guide.

Hm, i think that those delegations definitely could be interesting. I guess a good player from a poor country who can win some STEEM on a regular basis is well of with doing a 50/50 deal with an investor who doesn't want to play himself.

so basicly staking...

this could in fact be interesting

True, you come from poker, I remember :)

I think it is even a little bit better than staking, since there is little to know risk of getting bribed, since the one who gets delegated the cards to him can't steal them since he never owns them.

and you cant loose money only time and other opportunities.

but you need to provide a full set I think as you want your horses to have all deck building options...but I guess this would be a best case scenario and you can go other ways as well...but yes interesting thought for sure

No reason why you should not be able to delegate "only" a gold or silver deck - there are a lot of tournaments to played on that level as well.

I think I should unleash the monsters again
