🎉 Splinterlands “Create a Contest” Contest – WINNERS ANNOUNCED! 🎉

What an incredible turnout for this challenge! 🙌

First off, I just want to say how blown away I am by the creativity in this community. The goal of this contest was simple — create a contest idea — but you all took that concept and ran with it in ways I didn’t expect.

After going through all the entries, here are the winners 👇

🥇 1st Place – jeremiahcustis

This entry tackled one of the biggest and most relevant topics in gaming right now — AI — and turned it into something that could genuinely benefit Splinterlands.

The concept focuses on using AI to improve different aspects of the game, especially:

Reimagining older card art (Alpha/Beta) into a more modern style
Enhancing visuals without losing the original identity
Exploring possibilities like animated battles and more

What really stood out was the balance between innovation and respect for the game’s roots. It wasn’t about replacing — it was about evolving.

🥈 2nd Place – Ehmaywuntee

“Pink Critter vs Goliath” is such a fun and relatable concept.

Inspired by the classic underdog story, this contest challenges players to:

Showcase battles where they beat stronger opponents
Win against higher-level cards or higher-ranked players

This is something every player has experienced at least once — and it’s always satisfying 😄

🥉 3rd Place – Nozem01

“The Carry Card” is a super strong strategic concept.

The challenge:

Build a team around ONE card
Make that card the undeniable MVP
Show how powerful a single monster can be when fully supported

This one really highlights the depth of strategy in Splinterlands.
