[Splinterland](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/what-is-splinterlands) [Brawls](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-brawls) are a guild event where you can earn [merits](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-merits) and [SPS](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-splintershards-sps). This post serves as a way for me to review how my fights went and as a reminder to sign up for the next brawl. I have missed brawls in the past and it hurts when gladius cards can now be used in ranked battles using the soulbound summoners. It's back to bad brawls.

## Brawl fights
There were 1 fights that I won and 4 that I lost. So I included an idea of what the match was below along with a few thoughts about it.

You can find the first match [here](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sm_rBrpMWy3QTL5f5TrZc0A&ref=jfang003). I won this match because my damage was focused on magic monsters. It worked out to my advantage as that damage slowly wiped out my opponent's front monsters.

You can find the second match [here](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sm_B0rYztY9e2It9ULJy5jg&ref=jfang003). I lost this match and it was quite horrible. My opponent had a large level advantage and his card got buffed by [martyr](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-martyr-ability).

You can find the third match [here](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sm_OII1REQxkAbpO1G34xNN&ref=jfang003). I lost this match nad my opponent won with his magic monster. I was hoping to survive longer using armor but that was useless against magic.

You can find the fourth match [here](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sm_OA0hTdZruzL5Gb6rYY1n&ref=jfang003). I lost this match and the level difference is tough. Add on top of all the extra armor my opponent had from his summoner and I didn't stand much of a chance.

You can find the fifth match [here](https://splinterlands.com?p=battle&id=sm_7R9X2bYDXrCpMsav2A0d&ref=jfang003). I lost this match and the [return fire](https://leofinance.io/@leoglossary/leoglossary-return-fire-ability) hurt. Half of my team was ranged monsters and it hurt to get hit by it.

I chose the gold foil modern brawl and I got 1 wins and 4 losses. The brawl was about the same as last time with me losing most of my matches. My rewards for the brawl were 3,667 merits and 30.198 SPS in the 3 star category. I forgot to visit the guild and take a closer view of my rewards but I think we ranked a bit higher than last time. I choose to take the gold foil modern brawl because my guild usually doesn't fill all their spots and I prefer to give my other guild members a chance at the brawls.

## Conclusion

My performance was bad this time around and I lost most of my fights. I am not sure where we placed but I am assuming we placed 6th or 7th in the rankings due to the chat. It is a surprise to see that I think brawls are a great way of earning SPS and merits for the number of battles you participate in. So I think it is worthwhile for people to participate in these brawls. My current brawls are in the three star category. Starting next brawl, we are back in the 2 star category. Hopefully things go better.
