Don't Neglect Your Gladiator Cards In Modern

Making the switch from the Wild Leagues to the Modern Leagues has been challenging but I'm finding it a little easier thanks to the Gladiator cards. Thanks to their Bloodlust ability, when they get going, they can be very hard to stop.

My two go-to cards are Katrelba Gobson and Quora Townsend. Both of which are Earth Splinter cards so I'm definitely playing more Earth decks in battle in Modern. Very different strategy from using Alric Stormbringer and his magic boost back in Wild.

Here's a recent battle where Katrelba decimated my opponent. I was initially worried by my opponent's Thorns but turns out, I had nothing to worry about.

In just round 1, I had gotten Katrelba's attack to 4 thanks to killing off two opponents. Not to mention the 5 speed meant that she would attack first the next round.

This soon went up to 6 attack and 7 speed by round 2. Don't think my opponent has any chance here. You can catch a replay of the entire battle here: https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sl_b497e9280415857730251831efd7568c&ref=charcoalbuffet

Gladiator Cards

For all Wild players hesitant to make the switch to Modern, using your Gladiator cards might be a bridging solution to improve your win rate. At least in Bronze. It is definitely more challenging than Wild for sure but i'll try with some rented cards and see if that improves things.

I don't know you migrated from wild to modern. Sometimes thorn is always useless especially if a Gladius card has attained one or two bloodlust.

Yeah I'm not sure if the Wild Pass is worth it so I decided to make the switch. Also with card values going down, it might be better to just rent the newer cards. I'll need to do the sums to see if it makes sense.

That's good, I'll probably have to keep paying for the wild pass until I can no longer. It's expensive to play in modern and the rare of loss is high when you climb relatively higher
