I signed up on [Hive](https://hive.io/) in March 2019, and six months later (September 2019), I started playing [Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com/register?ref=libertycrypto27). ||| |-|-| |https://hive.io/|[Splinterlands](https://splinterlands.com/register?ref=libertycrypto27)| With Splinterlands, my passion for web3 games began, and in particular, my passion for **[Hive](https://hive.io/)-based games**, for which I have a natural preference because [Hive](https://hive.io/) is my favorite blockchain platform. On Splinterlands, I like to play Ranked Play in formats where bots are not allowed: **Modern Format** and **Frontier Format**. |Modern Format|Frontier Format| |-|-| ||| |[Battle Link](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_fd7b27ad335f2ff7fb7133518937fac0?ref=libertycrypto27)|[Battle Link](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_14a62745c18cdd3ee1acb85705c5f041?ref=libertycrypto27)| In my previous [post]() about Splinterlands, I shared my progress and card upgrades in the Frontier Format. ||Post Link: [My Progress in Frontier Format & Upgrading Aurelia to Level 3! (ENG/ITA)](https://peakd.com/hive-146620/@libertycrypto27/my-progress-in-frontier-format)| |-|-| In this post, I share my recent sales and purchases of cards that can be used in the Modern Format. On Splinterlands, **I enjoy playing more than collecting cards**, and for this reason, **a card that I don't use in battle or use very rarely is a potential card to rent out or sell** with the aim of purchasing other cards that I could use in the game. Today, I looked through my card collection to find some cards to sell. I put 1 copy of **Queen Mycelia** level 1 up for sale because I already have 1 copy of Queen Mycelia at the maximum level.  I had made my level 1 Queen Mycelia available for rent, but it has been completely unused for two months.  Thanks to [Peakmonsters](https://peakmonsters.com/)' useful **Not Used (days)= 7** filter, I also found two legendary cards from the Rebellion set that I haven't used in a long time in the Modern Format  Screenshot from My Cards section on [Peakmonsters](https://peakmonsters.com/) I have also decided to put other cards up for sale: - Level 1 **Kei** (last used: **53 days** ago)  - Level 1 **Zebajin** (last used: **24 days** ago)  Both of these cards were in my Mage wagons, and I had to remove them from their slots first in order to put them up for sale.  As for my **purchase goals**, I would like to buy at least one copy of **Gramel the Hunger**, which is a very useful card in high mana battles.  Today I raised my purchase offer for Gramel the Hunger because it was no longer the best  I raised my purchase offer from $8 to $9, but I am still willing to increase it if no one accepts my purchase offer.  Today I created two more purchase offers for: - 3 copies of **Bren Palesworn**  - 2 copies of **Zyrx the Emberglace**  I would like to have **Bren Palesworn level 2** because it is a card that I could use in combination with other cards that have magic attack points and the Weapon Training ability.  For example, by using **Bren Palesworn** and **Rage** separated by a card without attack, I could have a card with all three different types of attack. Instead, I need two copies of Zyrx the Emberglace to bring this card to the second level. Zyrx the Emberglace is a very useful card in battle because it has 7 total attack points, but at level 1 it is not very versatile because it can mainly be used in the front position, the only position in which it can use its melee attack. Its usefulness and versatility increase at level 2 because it acquires the **Charge** ability and can use its 5 melee attack points from any position.  I am willing to spend $4 on bcx to have level 2 Zyrx the Emberglace in my NFT collection. To have an extra card to use in battles with the Little League ruleset or simply with little mana available today, I purchased **Ferrous Brewer** level 2.  I used https://monstermarket.io/ to make the purchase.  I spent **3375.52 DEC** and received a **cashback** of **81.01 DEC**. I chose to purchase Ferrous Brewer level 2 because: - it is a neutral card that can be used with all archons - it can attack from all positions - in my collection, I don't have any neutral cards with a melee attack greater than 1 and a mana cost less than or equal to 4 - in battles with little mana, I have added an extra option When I purchase a card and share my purchase in a post, I also like to show how I use that card in battle, but I can't do that because the card has a 14-hour cooldown and I have to wait that amount of time before I can use it in the game.  So, I conclude this post by showing two recent battles I played in the Modern Format. I chose to share two battles with the Little League rule (only cards costing 4 mana or less can be used) because these are the battles in which my latest purchase, Ferrous Brewer, is particularly useful. In the first battle, if I had Ferrous Brewer, I could have used it instead of Ironwing Juggernaut (to have a card with the same attack but without the Weary ability problem) or Mar Toren Trader (to have a card that can attack when and if it reaches the front row).  [Battle Link](https://splinterlands.com/battle/sl_2e220495d853da20ce6a66c8df0f445d?ref=libertycrypto27)  In the second battle, if I had Ferrous Brewer, I could have used it instead of Great Porcupine to have a card with a higher attack and capable of attacking from the first position.
