What wet and windy weekends are made for - @splinterlands top trump card making with 1/2pint

It's not just me that enjoys playing @steemmonsters / @splinterlands in the welshstacker household. When ever 1/2pint catches me playing a cheeky game or two, he's straight on to me to show him his favourite cards and offers some interesting advice on team selection.

So in an attempt to get some game time to myself, as I push my way into DIAMOND league, I thought I'd make him his own set of #steemmonsters cards so I can play in peace.

First thing to do is to pull a few cards and print them onto an A4 sheet of paper, then be lazy and just print of a few "pre-loaded" top trump cards off the Internet. I added the categories myself:

Next stage is to leave 1/2pint my phone, so he can see all the colours, and then go make myself a nice cup of coffee while he works his magic. It didn't take him long to colour a few of his favourite cards in. By the way his favourite is REXXIE!

Once he'd coloured in a few of his favourites, it was time to cut them out and stick them on to the cards. An easy enough task you would think..... But just you try and stop a 4yr old from trying to cut not on his own but your fingers off!!

To be fair to him, I dont think he did that bad of a job.

With a little bit of glue, and some patience, the #steemmonsters cards are starting to take shape.

Time to cut them out and fill in the stats!

For their stats, I took the max level monster attributes, where:

  • SPEED = SPEED
  • POWER = ATTACK POINTS
  • STAMINA = HEALTH POINTS
  • SIZE = How big I perceive them to be (out of 10)

We all know how heavy handed kids can be, so to try and make them last, I also laminated them.

Time to cut out, stick and laminate the rest of them and then teach 1/2pint a lesson in not to mess with the best....

I highly recommend everyone take the time to do this and if the @splinterlands team released their own "top trump" deck it would be very cool l, and a great way to get younger kids involved in the game. If the covid-19 virus puts us all on "lock down" then I'll already be ahead of the game whne keeping 1/2pint entertained.

I wanna color!

This is awesome. And props to the wee one for liking Rexxie the best. #goodtaste

We do have a set of physical cards going out (SO SOON) with the physical kickstarter rewards... But I'm not sure how many extra were ordered for those who missed it (if any).

And yes, plans in the future for simple physical card game sets. Tabletop Splinterlands, if you will. 😎

It's generally a last-minute decision... but, I AM planning to do a Rare this week... and an under-valued one... with higher mana... well, 7 to be exact.

It's between Water and Death... I bet you can narrow it down. 😘
