We are getting close to the end of the season and it's time to see my progress on maxing out my Rebellion soulbound reward cards.
Another exceptional season thanks to the 1.5x Glint bonus we had the previous season, which reflected in the season rewards for last season that I used this season.
So, let's see what I did with the Glint this season.
I purchased 4 legendary draws this time around (one of them unfortunately turned out to be a duplicate of my maxed out legendary card), and all 25 epic draws, 100 rare draws, and 400 common draws. I still have 2,227 Glint in my stash to use next season.
That makes it easy to see how much Glint I earned this season (including the season rewards from last season). That makes it a total of 462,500 Glint used for draw purchases this season (+2,227 remaining in my stash for a total of 464,727). Last season I had a total of 427,500 Glint in purchases. That means I spent 35,000 more Glint this season. Remember! We are talking about a 1.5x Glint bonus on the last season rewards.
Let's keep a table too, going forward:
| Season since New SB Set | Glint Used to Purchase Draws | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Season 5 | 363,200 | |
| Season 6 | 344,400 | -18,800 Glint |
| Season 7 | 352,700 | +8,300 Glint |
| Season 8 | 341,850 | -10,850 Glint |
| Season 9 | 328,100 | -13,750 Glint |
| Season 10 | 427,500 | +99,400 Glint |
| Season 11 (current) | 462,500 | +35,000 Glint |
| Last 3 seasons' average | 406,033 |
Let's see what my current situation of the Rebellion SB set completion progress is so far:
| Season since New SB Set | Commons % | Rares % | Epics % | Legendaries % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Season 1 | 1 / 0 | 2 / 0 | 8 / 0 | 9 / 0 |
| Season 2 | 2 / 1 | 2 / 0 | 9 / 0 | 17 / 0 |
| Season 3 | 3 / 1 | 2 / 0 | 10 / 0 | 23 / 0 |
| Season 4 | 5 / 2 | 3 / 1 | 12 / 0 | 27 / 0 |
| Season 5 | 7 / 2 | 4 / 2 | 13 / 0 | 36 / 0 |
| Season 6 | 8 / 3 | 5 / 2 | 15 / 0 | 42 / 0 |
| Season 7 | 9 / 3 | 6 / 2 | 15 / 0 | 51 / 0 |
| Season 8 | 10 / 3 | 7 / 2 | 17 / 0 | 58 / 0 |
| Season 9 | 10 / 3 | 7 / 2 | 24 / 1 | 61 / 0 |
| Season 10 | 19 / 5 | 14 / 4 | 31 / 4 | 63 / 0 |
| Season 11 (current) | 28 / 6 | 22 / 4 | 39 / 6 | 65 / 0 |
That's +2% to the progress of legendary cards, +8% progress to epic cards (and +2% to epic GF), +8% progress to rare cards (and +0% to the rare GF), and 9% progress to the common cards (and +1% to the common GF).
The strategy is still epic first, rare second, common third, legendary forth, until I max out a card from the first 3 rarities. On the legendary cards, unfortunately I pulled 1 double of my fully leveled up card this time around, but the other 3 have been useful. In fact, one of them leveled up one of the cards to 3/4.
Here are the "before and after" snapshots for the Rebellion SB epic cards, which are my current main focus. "Before" first:
1 at level 4, 5 at level 3, 1 at level 2
And now the current levels of the epic cards...
My Rebellion SB epic cards: 2 at level 4, 5 at level 3.
This season one card was upgraded to level 4, and 1 of them moved up to level 3.
Perhaps a more relevant metric is the amount of Glint already spent compared to the total amount needed to max out the SB set (only regulars).
Here' s my situation:
8,790,000 Glint
Glint value of the cards collected so far (ignore GF and doubles):
** 4,371,400** Glint
Progress percentage:
49.73%
Estimated^ time to max out the RF cards (or GF, where possible):
12 more seasons (6 months, i.e. end-July)
^) estimation now includes tier advancement rewards (average last 3 seasons); estimation doesn't account for Glint wasted on pulling doubles of maxed out cards or GF instead of RF (where GF card level isn't high enough)
Last season's Glint value of cards collected: 3,925,150.
Difference: 446,250 Glint-worth of cards this season, including tier advancement rewards.
| Season since New SB Set | Glint-Worth of Cards (including Tier Advancement Rewards) | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Season 7 | 414,550 | - |
| Season 8 | 368,400 | -46,150 Glint |
| Season 9 | 328,850 | -39,550 Glint |
| Season 10 | 388,350 | +59,700 Glint |
| Season 11 (current) | 446,250 | +57,900 Glint |
| Last 3 seasons' average | 387,817 |
