New Splinterlands Survival Mode: How To Exclude Cards + My First Survival Battles
With the start of season 154 in Modern Format and Wild Format, the **first season of the new game mode** released by Splinterlands also began: the **Survival Mode**
In my previous post, I explained what Survival Mode is and showed the main mechanisms governing this new game mode, emphasizing the differences with Wild and Modern formats.

To summarize and simplify **the new Survival Mode is a Wild Format without the energy bar because the cards are the energy** to play more battles.
In fact in Survival mode battles **cards used in a lost battle enter a cooldown mode** = they cannot be used in all ranked game modes (Modern Format, Wild Format, Tournaments, Brawls) until the cooldown period is over.

# How to exclude cards in order not to use them in Survival Mode.
Survival Mode introduces a **new level of card management** and also introduces the ability to enable or disable the use of a card in Survival Mode.
Those who choose to play only in Survival Mode do not need to manage their card collection.
Those who play in multiple game modes must necessarily manage their card collection by choosing which cards to use in Survival Mode and which cards to exclude from this new game mode.
I play in Modern Format, Brawls with my guild and occasionally play some tournaments.
If I accidentally used a card in Survival Mode that I use a lot in Modern Format such as level 10 VRUZ and VRUZ is eliminated in battle I would not be able to use VRUZ for 120 hours = 5 days in Modern Format and this could produce a worsening of my game results in Modern Format.
Fortunately, Splinterlands has introduced **useful new features** to allow players to choose which cards to exclude from accidental use in Survival Mode.
To **exclude a card from Survival Mode** you can:
- go to the **ITEMS->CARDS** section.
- **click on the card** you want to exclude from Survival Mode.
- **select the card** by clicking on the selection square.
- **click on the fourth symbol** in the **status** section of the card.
- or click on **DISABLE SURVIVAL CARD**.
In case you have multiple copies of the same card, you can choose which ones to exclude from Survival Mode and which ones not by acting on the **selection boxes** and clicking on **Disable Survival Cards**.
If you have many cards in your NFT collection, you should repeat the steps I have shown for each individual card you want to exclude from Survival Mode.
To speed up the selection of cards to exclude from Survival Mode **you can create a CUSTOM SET** = a set of cards that you can then exclude from use in the new game mode.
To **create a CUSTOM SET**:
- you need to go to the **ITEMS** section.
- then you need to click on **CARD SETS**.
- then you have to click on **CREATE** under the **CUSTOM** heading.
.
Using filters you can select subsets of your cards and for each card you can quickly select how many and which cards to select.
An important piece of information for card selection, in my opinion, is the elapsed time since the last use in play (**Last Played**).
You can also alternatively use the **AUTOFIL** feature, which you can configure by clicking on the gear symbol.
When you have chosen all the cards you want to exclude from Survival Mode you can complete the creation of your Custom set by clicking **CREATE**.
Then you need to choose the **name of your Custom Set** and click on **CONFIRM**
At this point if you go to the **ITEMS->CARDS** section:
- in the Filters section you can **select the Card set you created**.
- in the filters at the top you have to select **SURVIVAL MODE ENABLED**
- then you need to **click on the symbol** indicated by the arrow in the next image
- then you need to click on **CONFIRM**
This way **you can exclude from Survival Mode all the cards that compose your card set!**
# My first battles in Survival Mode
After excluding the cards I use most frequently in Modern Format from use in Survival Mode, the number of my cards initially usable in Survival Mode decreased: 1101 cards -> 835 cards.
In my first battle in Survival Mode I was not very lucky because I found a very very strong opponent @jarvie

In the second battle I was much luckier with the opponent assignment and won my first battle in Survival Mode.

In the third battle I lost.

After three battles I increased my rating score by +20 and did not win SPS tokens because as explained in the Splinterlands post it will take some time for the SPS token pool to be filled completely.

In the **Battle Log** you can see that **cards used in lost battles are entering the Cooldown phase**.
In the **ITEMS->CARDS** section by selecting the **Survival Mode Depleted** filter you can see the cards in Cooldown.
In the **status** section of the individual card you can see the **duration of the cooldown period**.
I hope I have given you useful information and some interesting thoughts and thank you for taking the time to read this post :)

# La nuova modalità di gioco Survival Mode: Come escludere le carte + le mie prime battaglie
Con l'inizio della stagione 154 nel Modern Format e nel Wild Format è iniziata anche la **prima stagione della nuova modalità di gioco** rilasciata da Splinterlands: il **Survival Mode**
Nel mio precedente post ho spiegato cos'è il Survival Mode e ho mostrato i meccanismi principali che governano questa nuova modalità di gioco sottolineando le differenze con i formati Wild e Modern.
||Post link: [New Splinterlands Survival Game Mode Is Coming! Are You Ready?](https://peakd.com/hive-146620/@libertycrypto27/new-splinterlands-survival-game-mode-is-coming-are-you-ready-kik)|

In sintesi e semplificando **il nuovo Survival Mode è un Wild Format senza la barra dell'energia perchè le carte sono l'energia** per giocare più battaglie.
Infatti nelle Survival mode battles **le carte utilizzate in una battaglia persa entrano in una modalità cooldown** = non possono essere utilizzate in tutte le modalità di gioco ranked (Modern Format, Wild Format, Tournaments, Brawls) fino a quando non è terminato il periodo di cooldown.

# Come escludere le carte per non utilizzarle nel Survival Mode

Il Survival Mode introduce un **nuovo livello di gestione delle carte** e introduce anche la possibilità di abilitare o disabilitare l'utilizzo di una carta nel Survival Mode.
Chi sceglie di giocare solo nel Survival Mode non ha necessità di gestire la propria collezione di carte.
Chi gioca in più modalità di gioco deve necessariamente gestire la propria collezione di carte scegliendo quali carte utilizzare nel Survival Mode e quali carte escludere da questa nuova modalità di gioco.
Io gioco nel Modern Format, nelle Brawls con la mia gilda e occasionalmente gioco qualche torneo.
Se per sbaglio utilizzassi nel Survival Mode una carta che utilizzo molto nel Modern Format come ad esempio VRUZ di livello 10 e VRUZ venisse eliminato in battaglia non potrei utilizzare VRUZ per 120 ore = 5 giorni nel Modern Format e questo potrebbe produrre un peggioramento dei miei risultati di gioco nel Modern Format.

Fortunatamente Splinterlands ha introdotto delle **utili e nuove funzionalità** per permettere ai giocatori di scegliere quali carte escludere dall'utilizzo accidentale nel Survival Mode.
Per **escludere una carta dal Survival Mode** puoi:
- andare nella sezione **ITEMS->CARDS**
- **cliccare sulla carta** che vuoi escludere dal Survival Mode
- **selezionare la carta** cliccando sul quadratino di selezione
- **cliccare sul quarto simbolo** nella sezione **status** della carta
- oppure cliccare su **DISABLE SURVIVAL CARD**

Nel caso hai più copie di una stessa carta puoi scegliere quali escludere dal Survival Mode e quali no agendo sui **quadratini di selezione** e cliccando su **Disable Survival Cards**.

Se hai molte carte nella tua collezione di NFT dovresti ripetere le operazioni che ti ho mostrato per ogni singola carta che vuoi escludere dal Survival Mode.
Per velocizzare la selezione delle carte da escludere dal Survival Mode **puoi creare un CUSTOM SET** = un insieme di carte che poi puoi escludere dall'utilizzo nella nuova modalità di gioco.
Per **creare un CUSTOM SET**:
- devi andare nella sezione **ITEMS**
- poi devi cliccare su **CARD SETS**
- poi devi cliccare su **CREATE** sotto alla scritta **CUSTOM**
