In this series, I analyze the top battles of the day to reveal which summoners and monsters are most successful for a given league and format. What better way to improve our Splinterlands skills than to study what the best players are doing?
For those of us who buy, rent, or rent out cards, I'm also hoping that this series can inform us of which cards to acquire for maximum effectivenes.
Stay tuned for a new report to be published daily, each covering the top battles for a different league and format!
WILDFor simplicity I threw out matches ending in draws and surrender - all data is compiled from wins and losses. Here are the results from 121 of the top Diamond league (wild format) battles from Friday, February 7, 2025:
