Splinterlands Recent and Interesting News: Custom Challenges, New Contests Rules, Inleo Partnership
Splinterlands is my favorite blockchain based game and in addition to playing the game, I also really enjoy writing content on my Hive blog about my gaming activities, strategies, and news regarding the Splinterverse.
The topic of my post today is about three interesting and recent news regarding Splinterlands.
The Custom Challenges
On January 7, 2025, Splinterlands introduced an interesting new feature: the Custom Challenges.
This new feature can be accessed from the Play section of Splinterlands by clicking on CHALLENGE.
Through Custom Challenges it is possible to create a fully customized game battle to challenge another player.
In the creation of a custom challenge you can:
- choose the player to challenge
- choose which cards to use
- choose summoner level caps
- choose the mana cap
- choose rulesets
- choose the elements
Simple challenges where you can choose opponent, allowed cards and summoner level caps are always free.
Custom challenges are free for players who have 50K SPS staked or 1 RUNI.
Custom challenges cost 10 DEC or 10 Credits for players who do not have RUNI and have less than 50K SPS staked.
I really like this feature because being able to choose from so many options increases the fun when challenging a friend or another player.
Also in my opinion it is very useful to be able to try all the cards when there are precise rulesets and under precise circumstances.
Custom challenges are an especially useful element for explaining and trying the game to a new player who needs help or to a friend who doesn't know Splinterlands.
New Rules for participation in Splinterlands contests
Another interesting news regards the contests organized by Splinterlands.
If you have read the post Splinterlands Art Contest Week 329! New Rules! you already know the new rules. If you haven't read it I will update you on these rules that will be introduced in all future weekly contests organized by Splinterlands.
Splinterlands contests provide an important incentive for Splinterlands players to:
- learn about the social side of Hive
- post content on Hive
Participating in the Splinterlands contests is also an opportunity to be rewarded with an upvote from the accounts steemmonsters, sps.dao, and ybapmatt, which are accounts that have a lot of HP and support contest participants.
 |  |  |
|---|
Voting for posts participating in Splinterlands contests is done through manual curation by curators who are also Splinterlands players.
In the previous contest rules, a propensity for staking HIVE tokens was not required.
With the implementation of the new rules, propensity for staking HIVE tokens will be an important element in receiving an upvote.
I personally consider these new rules fair, logical, and useful for the future of the Hive ecosystem.
I consider these new rules fair and logical because Splinterlands and Hive have a very close relationship with each other and this relationship has become even closer after the Hive community supported the Splinterlands DHF proposal.
Hive is a Delegate Proof of Stake (DPOS) blockchain and staking is an important element and propensity to staking is an objective indicator of an account's interest in Hive.
If you are an account that participates in Splinterlands contests only to receive an upvote that you want to monetize 100% by taking it out of the Hive ecosystem you are unlikely to receive support from Splinterlands with the new rules although there is always time to change behavior and start having medium to long term growth goals on Hive.
A very interesting post regarding the propensity for staking on Hive was written by @azircon and I invite you to read his recent post.

New partnership between Splinterlands and Inleo.
Another recent and interesting news is the partnership between Inleo and Splinterlands.
With this partnership, SPS tokens are integrated into Inleo and increase their use cases.
To celebrate this partnership, a tournament will also be organized where all players will be able to compete on equal level because they will have equal decks.
After more than 5 years since my first battle on Splinterlands I enjoy playing regularly every day and I conclude this post of mine by showing my last battle played in the Modern Format which is the only format in which, in my opinion, beats the heart (the fun gameplay) of Splinterlands and in which human players like me have fun!
I hope I have given you useful information and some interesting thoughts and thank you for taking the time to read this post :)

Le novità recenti su Splinterlands: Custom Challenges, Nuove Regole per i Contest settimanali, Inleo Partnership
Splinterlands è il mio gioco blockchain preferito e oltre a giocare mi piace molto anche scrivere contenuti sul mio Hive blog che riguardano la mia attività di gioco, le mie strategie e le novità che riguardano lo Splinterverse.
L'argomento del mio post di oggi riguarda tre interessanti novità che riguardano Splinterlands.
Le Custom Challenges
Il 7 gennaio 2025 Splinterlands ha introdotto una nuova interessante novità: le Custom Challenges.
Questa nuova funzionalità è accessibile dalla sezione Play di Splinterlands cliccando su CHALLENGE.
Tramite le Custom Challenges è possibile creare una Challenge completamente personalizzata per sfidare un altro giocatore.
Nella creazione di una custom challenge è possibile:
- scegliere il giocatore da sfidare
- scegliere quali carte utilizzare
- scegliere il summoner level caps
- scegliere il mana cap
- scegliere le rulesets
- scegliere gli elementi
Le semplici challenge in cui è possibile scegliere sfidante, allowed cards e summoner level caps sono sempre gratuite.
Le custom challenges sono gratuite per i giocatori che hanno 50K SPS staked o 1 RUNI
Le custom challenges hanno un costo di 10 DEC o 10 Credits per i giocatori che non hanno RUNI e hanno meno di 50K SPS staked.
Mi piace molto questa funzionalità perchè poter scegliere tra tante opzioni aumenta il divertimento quando si sfida un amico o un altro giocatore.
Inoltre secondo me è molto utile poter provare tutte le carte in presenza di precise rulesets e in presenza di precise circostanze.
Le custom challenges sono un elemento particolarmente utile per spiegare e far provare il gioco ad un nuovo giocatore che ha bisogno di aiuto o ad un amico che non conosce Splinterlands.
Nuove Regole per la partecipazione ai contest di Splinterlands
Un'altra interessante novità riguarda i contest organizzati da Splinterlands.
Se hai letto il post Splinterlands Art Contest Week 329! New Rules! già conosci le nuove regole. Se non lo hai letto ti aggiorno io su queste regole che saranno introdotte in tutti i futuri contests settimanali organizzati da Splinterlands.
I contests di Splinterlands offrono un importante incentivo ai giocatori di Splinterlands per:
- conoscere il lato social di Hive
- pubblicare contenuti su Hive
Partecipare ai contest di Splinterlands è anche un'occasione per essere ricompensati con un upvote da parte degli accounts steemmonsters, sps.dao e ybapmatt che sono account che hanno molti HP e che supportano i partecipanti ai contests.
| | |
|---|
Il voto dei post che partecipano ai contest di Splinterlands avviene tramite una cura manuale da parte di curatori che sono anche giocatori di Splinterlands.
Nelle precedenti regole dei contests non era richiesta una propensione allo staking dei token HIVE.
Con l'applicazione delle nuove regole la propensione allo staking dei token HIVE sarà un elemento importante per ricevere un voto.
Personalmente considero queste nuove regole giuste, logiche e utili per il futuro dell'ecosistema di Hive.
Considero queste nuove regole giuste e logiche perchè Splinterlands e Hive hanno una relazione molto stretta tra di loro e questa relazione è diventata ancora più stretta dopo che la comunità di Hive ha supportato la Splinterlands DHF proposal.
Hive è una Delegate Proof of Stake (DPOS) blockchain e lo stake è un elemento importante e la propensione allo staking è un indicatore oggettivo dell'interesse che un account ha per Hive.
Se sei un account che partecipa ai contest di Splinterlands solo per ricevere un upvote da monetizzare al 100% portandolo fuori dall'ecosistema di Hive difficilmente con le nuove regole riceverai supporto da Splinterlands anche se sei sempre in tempo per cambiare comportamento e per iniziare ad avere obiettivi di crescita di medio lungo termine su Hive.
Un post molto interessante che riguarda la propensione allo staking su Hive lo ha scritto @azircon e ti invito a leggere il suo recente post.

Nuova partnership tra Splinterlands e Inleo
Un'altra recente e interessante novità riguarda la partnership tra Inleo e Splinterlands.
Con questa partnership i token SPS sono integrati in Inleo e aumentano i loro casi d'uso.
Per festeggiare questa partnership sarà organizzato anche un torneo in cui tutti i giocatori potranno competere alla pari perchè avranno decks uguali.
Dopo più di 5 anni dalla mia prima battaglia su Splinterlands mi diverto a giocare regolarmente ogni giorno e concludo questo mio post mostrando la mia ultima battaglia giocata nel Modern Format che è l'unico formato in cui, secondo me, batte il cuore (il divertente gameplay) di Splinterlands e in cui i giocatori umani come me si divertono!
Spero di averti dato informazioni utili e qualche spunto di riflessione interessante e ti ringrazio per aver dedicato il tuo tempo alla lettura di questo post :)

Grazie mille per il supporto e un grande abbraccio :)
congrats on the InLeo integration
Great to see 2 of the great Hive communities working closer together
yes I agree, collaborations between projects on Hive are always a good thing
Easy place to check an user’s long term investment mindset is to go here:
https://hivebuzz.me/ranking
Type the username on the top right.
It will list the user highlighted in red.
Read two numbers Author HP and Curator HP. Add them. Divide by current held HP.
That’s KE.
If that number is higher than 3.0; do not vote that individual.
Many say 3.0 is generous but we are grading on the curve. Lower than ratio, better the investment mindset
I really like KE because it is a good indicator and I think higher than 3 indicates little interest in Hive
Thank you for thinking of this indicator and thank you also for the calculation of my KE
You are welcome. I also think KEs of 10 and above should be on a grey list
Then you'd have to remember that people also delegate to other projects, since that's more interesting than voting with pennies, I think. HIVE is going down a strange path, I don't think I'll be staying here.
delegation does not matter. Your total HP and your delegated HP are two different columns. See for yourself. You do not have any delegated hive anyways :)
You're doing it wrong, I fully delegated my HP, so I don't have a “Curator” to fill that in. You're wrong.
@ifhy you are wrong, You do not have any HP delegated
With your 1K HP your are a curator
I think I'll give up explaining it to all of you :).
Okay, I haven't delegated any HP up to this point, I received earnings from OCDB, HiveBR and others because they like me. Have a great Friday friends.
@libertycrypto27
I can pull up anyone's hive history in seconds :)
That's what I'm trying to explain, people like me would rather delegate all the HP than get some returns. In my case, I delegated parts of it to interesting projects like HiveBR.
È bene sapere che alcuni delegano molto ai programmi di curatela e ricevono Hive liquido, che viene tolto e non viene visualizzato nei dati. L'intero circo è polvere negli occhi.
Ciao e grazie del commento
Si se ti riferisci al KE, hai ragione, le delegazioni non sono considerate nel calcolo del KE ma non penso questo è un elemento così importante perchè delegare riduce la total curation e questo elemento è grande solo per chi ha molti HP. Considera che la propensione allo staking non sarà l'unico elemento considerato nella curation di Splinterlands perchè la quantità di assets di Splinterlands e l'interazione con gli altri Hivers sono elementi altrettanto importanti.
Secondo me le nuove regole avranno effetti positivi perchè incentiveranno chi partecipa ai contest ad avere obiettivi di medio-lungo termine su Hive.
Tra l'altro un KE < 3 mi sembra un buon indicatore perchè non disincentiva i power downs ma allo stesso tempo disincentiva la partecipazione ai contest di Splinterlands solo per ricevere le ricompense per fare cash out totale.
Premiare di più chi ha un'alta propensione allo stakings in una dpos e in un Hive contest mi sembra un buon e logico punto di partenza
Naturalmente, volevo solo sottolineare che alcune persone incassano tanto grazie a questi progetti e si nascondono come bravi ragazzi. Ad esempio, so che non otterrò alcun voto sui miei contenuti, a causa dell'odio di uno dei membri abusivi della curatela, ma questa è un'altra storia. Scusate per il mio italiano, lo adoro, ma ho bisogno di un po' di pratica, visto che l'ho imparato quasi 18 anni fa, e ora lo uso raramente.
I didn't know about the new rule changes to contests, but I think it's a reasonable decision. I haven't powered down at all so I think that I should fit the criteria still without any issues.
I calculated your KE (1.42) and you are absolutely in good metric.
It's important to have skin in the game and I think it's also important for continous reward and participation as well.
I watched the game you played with the Possibilius summoner as well. Good win, great strategy.
Yes I agree, the propensity for staking will only be one element to consider in curating post contests because Splinterlands assets and interaction on Hive are also equally important elements
thanks for your comment and for your support

After sharing about HIVE on Reddit, even commenting and receiving a few opinions, it now seems so obvious, HIVE really isn't an investment in itself. Returning to the fact that HIVE is the best choice for P2P transactions due to its relatively low cost, however, it seems that now you also “don't deserve” the 50%, whose remaining 50% already becomes HIVE POWER. Wouldn't it be better to punish those who only Power Down again? I'm wondering if I'll stick with this project in the long term.
Hi @ifhy I honestly don't understand your point of view
Hive is a DPOS = delegate proof of stake
Stake matters but everyone has full freedom to do what they want with their stake including voting or not voting or power up or power down.
Splinterlands is a Hive-based game and has received support from the Hive community especially with the SPL DHF proposal.
In your opinion if Splinterlands decides to reward and support more those who have medium to long term goals on Hive and those who have assets of Splinterlands is wrong? and why?
This is not about punishing but incentivizing to support the ecosystem from which we receive support.
Do you think someone who has, for example, 0 HP but received 17K HP (author rewards) and has no Splinterlands assets should be supported in the same way as someone who has staked a good portion of HP and has Splinterlands assets?
No one is against power down but those who extract so much compared to what they receive objectively have no interest in Hive or at least not as much interest as those who choose not to extract or extract 50%.
I think you are a little confused and don't know the terms punishment, dpos and stake.
Is not giving an upvote a punishment for you?
While giving 0 support to the ecosystem is okay?
In real life if a person takes 300 but gives 50 back he is a selfish person to me. Is he a generous person to you?
Explain to me why if Splinterlands decided to reward people who do power downs but not too many powerdowns and have growth goals should be such a bad thing. I am curious
Hi @libertycrypto27
You don't need to understand any more, unfortunately some people who abandoned this were right. **No, I'm not talking about those crazy people who get Downvotes or are caught by Hivewatchers. But people who take the time to really be part of the HIVE ecosystem. After all, this is Web3 and Investment, right? But it's funny that people who don't interact with the blockchain at all, or rather even post topics in automatic mode and don't reply to those who comment, get so much reward. While people like me, even if they dedicate themselves to it, engage and create something, can't be entitled to the remaining 50%.
**And I've never done a PowerDown so far.
I really have a lot of people to thank here, as well as the curators who have always supported us, the Brazilian community and of course the gods unchained and gaming community. But the more you apply yourself in HIVE, the more you understand how “DAO” really works, not fair governance. A while back someone commented that you just had to “increase your HP” to be part of the governance, right. Let's compete against the whales that have been there since the beginning. That answer was so stupid that I should have saved it in an image.
Hi @ifhy I like to compare myself with those who have different ideas from mine and I also like to help others understand the mechanisms of Hive because I was also a new user and I also had a lot of difficulties in the beginning.
My first posts earned 0 rewards and didn't get the attention I thought I deserved but most importantly I didn't know Hive like I do now.
But my biggest mistake was that I only looked at and weighed the content of my posts against others then, also thanks to the advice of more experienced hivers I understood the way to grow on Hive and my results were getting better and better.
On Hive the content of a post is only one of the important factors because to grow on Hive the important elements are in my opinion:
If you do not give importance to each of these factors, it is not the fault of others or Hive but simply that you have not thought much about what Hive is and what is important to do.
To help you I looked at your activity on Hive and I hope you will appreciate my advice because it is only meant to help you
Growing up on Hive is not immediate and requires a lot of commitment especially of time.
I try to write 20 comments per published post
If I don't read and comment on other authors' posts why should other authors comment on mine?
You have published 165 posts and wrote 479 comments
Your level of interaction is too low and you are not making connections with others
I never delegate more than 25% of my HP and support more than 80 authors on a weekly basis
Why should others support me if I have no interest in supporting others?
So far you have received 1961 HP as support from the other Hivers but (probably you were delegating your HP before) you have supported the other authors with only 5 HP. But you complain that you do not receive support
Growing on Hive is not easy and it takes time but it is very rewarding for me because I can write what I want and if my content is liked I can be rewarded.
Did those who left Hive find their fortunes elsewhere? Tell me so I can go too... :)
Hive is not perfect and has aspects to improve but do you know of other blockchain projects that allow you to be rewarded for writing content?
I hope you will find my advice helpful and I have shown you the path I followed from 0 HP to 75K HP.
It was not an easy or immediate path but it took me time and effort.
Are you sure you put in the same effort?
Will and can and if you put in the effort you will see that you will grow very fast but you have to focus more on yourself and not on others also because an account that started 5 years ago and has a major stake will most likely have put in a lot of effort in the past.
I honestly didn't understand here what you mean by 50%.
Explain yourself better
I understood what you indicated, the problem was that I delegated 95% of my HIVE POWER, and then I couldn't get the return for other authors, although I'm supporting other projects I think. Although the comments seem low, I think you could compare with other profiles in the same niche, I think I still have +50% of the comments than the others.
About the 50% I'm saying, it's about some people trying to dictate what to do with the earnings, I'm referring to the 50% Hive Power - 50% HBD post payment. Certain people tend to say what to do with the 50% in HBD.
Thank you for your attention. @libertycrypto27
If you keep looking at those who do worse than you do and earn more than you do, you won't get very far.
If an author earns more than you and writes content that is not as good as yours and interacts less than you do be sure that over time you will outgrow him.
When I had little HP I looked at those who had more HP than me wrote short content, now many of those accounts have much less HP than me. If I had stopped to compare myself to those who were worse me I would not be here. You have to look at who does better than you and who you admire for what they do if you want to improve at least that is what I do in real life.
Who are these people? I in these 5 years have never heard anyone say what to do with HBD.
Not directly, but I bet you've read the phrase:
"Hive Leechers, who withdraw their Liquid Hive to Exchanges without keeping a part for Stacking"
It's the same thing as telling you to hold on to your HBD, after all, you only get your Hive after changing your HBD.
I'd rather end this conversation here and mention the authors of that phrase. This avoids downvotes and enemies.
Thanks for the chat, have a nice afternoon or evening, I think you're @libertycrypto27 Italian LOL.
@ifhy I honestly think one thing:
You are not a Hive leechers because you kept HP in your wallet.
I honestly don't see any diktat in a user not wanting to support those who sell all their HIVE and consider them Hive Leechers, it is his personal opinion and personal choice not to support these accounts and with his stake he can choose who to support or not.
Likewise, I don't understand your point of view and why you are so concerned.
Until now you have had no interest in supporting other authors but:
Can Splinterlands freely choose what to do with its HPs exactly as you do?
Or should Sprinterlands delegate all of them as you have done so far and not support you, me and many other accounts?
When you criticize the possible “ missing” HP support of others you must be the one who wants to support others first wirh your hp.
That's why your criticism is only generated by your own interests and for that reason it is unliberal and also presumptuous because you don't do what you want others to do.
Have a nice day and work on your auto-criticism (my opinable opinion)
