📢 Game Update – New Tutorial Campaign & Foundation Cards!
A major step forward for onboarding and gameplay! Here's everything new in today’s release:
🧭 Tutorial Campaign + Foundation Set Launch
🔹 An 11-chapter tutorial campaign is now live!
🔹 Complete chapters to earn your initial play set of Foundation cards and some Glint to spend on reward cards.
🔹 The new Foundation card set has replaced Rebellion starter cards.
🚨 Starter cards have been fully removed from the game.
If you don’t have any playable cards, complete the tutorial campaign to receive your Foundation set.
🔹 Novice liquidity bots now use Foundation cards.
🔹 Minimum mana for Novice and Bronze raised to 24 (to match Foundation cards' higher cost).
🔹 We have removed some of the rulesets in bronze which restricted card choices for a better user experience.
🔹 Foundation cards are account-bound for now and can’t be combined, burned, or placed on land.
🔮 Future updates will allow for more ways to acquire, trade, and combine Foundation cards — and we may add more chapters to the tutorial campaign too!
🌾 Land Changes
🔹 Cards no longer lock when placed on plots.
🔹 Card locking requirement for land use has been removed.
⚔️ Gameplay & General Updates
💳 SPS purchase integration with RAMP added (via the Get More SPS page).
🛑 Removed Chaos Legion rental recommendation for new players.
🛠️ Mass enable/disable cards for Survival Mode now available from any filter; as long as all cards are currently enabled or disabled for this mode.
🧙 Cards in sets can be placed on Mage Wagons if they’re not listed for rent.
🔁 Added a "Return to Practice" button after matches.
🧑🎨 Opponent avatars in Practice mode have improved visibility.
🔹 Deed market info cleaned up: staking/worksite details removed to reduce API clutter.
🛠️ Hotfixes Previously Deployed
🖱️ Adjusted click area for the “lowest sale price” button when listing cards; we made it a visible button instead of a hidden one.
Thanks for being part of the journey — go complete the tutorial and claim your Foundation cards! 💥

By the way this card are called Founder Cards, These cards replaced the starter cards but better, with starter cards your sps and glint rewards are punished but as you can see in the videos earlier I am using the new Founder cards but still getting around 5sps per game which I normally earn.
You can claim those cards by finishing each chapter in the campaign! Each chapter grants you a different set of founder cards!
I think these cards would not dominate the high ranks though it greatly changes the game for low ranks. These cards would affect High Gold to Champ if they can be upgraded. Let us wait for further updates from the team on how they will make these cards doable for higher tiers.
Basically, it is the new tutorial! Get your hands on those founder cards now and try them out for yourselves. I recommend using the new Water Archon! Enjoy Splinterlands community, and congrats to the Splinterlands team for introducing us new set of cards! Happy Battling to all!

**WHO AM I?****
I started playing Splinterlands during 2021, I was young back then, just playing games and knowing nothing about crypto. I discovered Splinterlands while searching for crypto games that are somehow similar to Axie Infinity because it is expensive for me way back then. I am now returning to play Splinterlands and adopt to the current Modern Meta and apply what I have learned in crypto and also enjoy the game I once loved. Back to the present, I am now in College and I want to pursue trading, playing crypto games as my main source of income. I grew up loving money, loving how to make money circulate and how does a person need money. With crypto, I have been enlightened that just by using your devices and learning the basics you can earn more. I am playing Splinterlands because of my love for the game, and that is the reason I have been very active on Discord and Community meetings as well as blogging on PeakD
**WHY AM I WRITING BLOGS? **
I write blogs to tell stories, update new players about the Meta, share my daily experiences, and show everyone how a typical Splinterlands player views the game. I am showing you guys my perspective and journey and I hope that you are enjoying my blogs! Just like everybody we are also beginners at some point, we research, we play, we enjoy, and also we encounter people that inspires us or people that we became friends along the way. In the future I want to become a Maverick, a Land Owner and A crypto whale. I promise to help beginners and also the community in any way that I can and support SPL to the moon.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Learn the Meta, Invest in cards and SPS, prioritize buying epic reward cards and don't forget to buy gladiator packs for brawl, practice different decks, join brawls and tournaments to maximize earning SPS, and lastly and the most important one is HAVE FUN!
