No Escaping the Basics... My Return to the Splinterlands Campaign
# 🐉 Back to the Campaign I Go...

Last night I returned to my **Splinterlands Campaign** because I wanted to play **Frontier Mode** 🛡️.

It turned out that in order for me to play Frontier Mode, I need to have enough **Foundation cards** to use during battles ⚔️.

And where do I get those cards?
**Through Campaign battles.** 😁
So I guess I’m not gonna be able to escape learning the basics, right? 🧙‍♂️

## 🧭 I Skipped the Basics Early On...

Although I did play Campaign mode on my first day with Splinterlands, I stopped at **Chapter 5** because I was too eager to just jump in and start earning rewards 💰.

Right after Chapter 5, I went straight into playing **Modern Format**, which was okay…
But honestly?
That wasn’t the best way to start a Splinterlands adventure, you know? 🐾

## 💀 Learning Through Experience (The Hard Way)

There’s nothing wrong with learning through experience in **Modern Format** battles 🔥.

But unfortunately…
It’s a **hard** way of learning 🗡️.

Not because it’s just difficult (well… it *is* difficult 😅), but because what I’ve learned is this:

> 🛡️ **Understanding the fundamentals is super important if you want to succeed in battles.**

Why?

Because the fundamentals give you:

* 📜 The **knowledge** to make better decisions
* 🧠 The **strategies** to adapt in different matchups
* 🆓 And of course... **free cards** that you can actually use in your battles

---

So yeah...
Looks like I’m heading back to **Campaign mode** with a whole new appreciation 🐲
Gotta build that foundation.
Gotta train like a true warlock in the arena.
**Victory awaits.** ⚔️🔥

At this moment, I’m stuck battling against the **Ogre** 😭. I just can’t seem to get past this monster, even though I’ve tried several different **summoners** and **monster lineups**.

Among the types of monsters that seem to have an edge against the Ogre are those with **high speed**, since they can **dodge** its powerful attacks ⚡🛡️.

During the earlier Campaign battles, I was introduced to monsters with abilities like **Dodge**, **Sneak**, and even **Life Leech**—which is my favorite so far 🧛‍♂️. This **Life Leech** ability reminds me of the game **DOTA**, where there’s a hero with the **Lifesteal** skill. It’s basically the same concept: you recover health as you attack the enemy 💥❤️.

Right now, I’ve finally acquired enough cards to build a deck for **Frontier Mode**, so I’m gonna step away from Campaign mode for a bit. I want to test out the strategies I’ve learned and see how they perform in different game formats 🔄⚔️. Let’s find out if my experience from the Campaign is solid—and if I can actually recall and apply the tactics I picked up from there 🧙‍♂️🎯.

***Overall, going back to Campaign mode reminded me how important it is to build a solid foundation before diving into the more competitive formats. The battles might be tough, but each one teaches something new that helps me grow as a player. Now it’s time to take what I’ve learned and see how far I can go in Frontier Mode! 🛡️🔥***
