**Hello Splinter nerds** ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmUXXPnNLYCf93zZfmxMBDW44qcoGviHAsedZ8t9Thb2dK/image.png) *Splinterlands now has four formats. The frontier, modern, wild, and Survival format. I am actively playing 3 out of the 4 formats available. I choose not to play in the Wild format because the energy of the Wild and Modern formats is intertwined, and it wouldn't make sense to abandon Modern for Wild. Modern gives more sps reward, it is bot-free aside the liquidity bot, and I do not need to pay Dec for a pass to participate there, unlike the wild, which requires 2000 Dec to get the wild pass.* *I play modern mostly because it is the most rewarding for me in terms of Sps, but the problem is the energy limit, so when I exhaust the energy for the day and the additional 25 energy purchased with Glint, I switched to the frontier format to complete the quest and earn some reward cards and lastly switch to survival which I play till I am tired... So I can say Splinterlands is a full-time job for me because it requires a lot of time to get everything done, including tournaments, but it is worth it!.* *The grinding pays as the emp-warden account now has 900,000 Sps staked!* ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmT3sscJb2a55TaamDcvmS4MczxKRzcVcHYgwffEuvLEiv/image.png) *It was not purchased; it was earned through grinding rank battles and tournaments. I am glad I made the decision to stop splitting the reward and just keep staking all we earn, looks like the future is bright!* *The Conclave Arcana comes with a lot of amazing summoners and monsters, and Bella Ratajowlski is one of the best and most used summoners in modern format, and the reason is because of its stats.* *It has two abilities, the first one is ``deflect`` which makes all monsters summoned by it have zero damage from corrosive ward, thorns, return fire, magic reflect, and blast! It protects them well, plus it gives a shield to all monsters it summons that share the same bloodline with it, which makes it more interesting.* *Most of the time that I have the Blast ruleset, I make use of Bella as long as it is available because no summoner can protect my team like it does.* I was paired with a liquidity bot in a 3 rules combo in which explosive weaponry[blast rule] was among, the two other rules were noxious fume and taking side[no neutral monster can be used] *Only the Earth splinter was not available, but I did not think twice before using Bella to summon the life monsters, and this is because of the blast rule present among the ruleset.* ![image.png](https://images.hive.blog/DQmYA4mFUXBW5arbyv7KeHYnMNhf5QPPMY1PLFwDh8u5dna/image.png) [battle link](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_1fb298f34b95aab28744fdd361c8c6fc) *The opponent came with the Death splinter, barely looking at our formation, you would realize the opponent used more monsters than me, but then that doesn't auto make him the winner. He didn't protect his team from the blast rule, but I did, and that gives me an upper edge in the battle.*
**My Formation**
*My summoner has a ``deflect`` ability, which protects my team from the blast ability given to all monsters.* *I only used 4 monsters, but they are the best.*

**Moribund Arrowbait** *was my first monster, and it was placed as a tank because of its ``bloodline tribute`` that gets triggered after its death and boosts the stats of its team that shares the same bloodline with it and I made sure to use only monsters that shares the same bloodline with it, my second monster was **Mystic Mudbinder** was my second monster, it can also self heal which makes it suitable to counter the other rule set[noxious fume].*

**Thunderous Herald** *was the monster in third position, it has ``execute`` ability which helps to terminate some of the opponent monsters, and lastly was ``Runic Skychonk``. This is a water splinter monster, but I could use it because it shares the same bloodline with my summoner; it also benefited from the Bloodline tribute, which made its attack stronger.* *The opponent's lineup was not bad at all, but I had more advantage because I protected my team against the blast.*
