Hello to Splinterlands and Hive Fam,
Hope life is treating you well wherever you are in this part of the world.
My Splinterlands Game account is - FinPulse9
The season was over a few days back and I got the season reward. I believe that everyone of us wait for the end of season reward because that gives us excitement and how which we receive. We receive a token called glint which can be used only in the gaming platform in reward shop option. It's like we have a shop where this currency will be used by the inventories available over there.
Every season we are rewarded with this token based on different factors. This is automated process so if you are playing the game and you are eligible for the reward you will be rewarded automatically. Things on the blockchain are pretty much interesting because everything is driven by the technology. Means there is no manual intervention required which I think is a plus and that is how things should be. So I have got what for the end of season but still did not spend the reward in the market. I am referring the market at shop where I will be able to use the glint reward to buy some cards.
Using the Season end Reward
I've got about 60K glint tokens and on top of that I have added about 15,000 tokens through the gameplay. So in total I have got 75k tokens available in my game account which I can use in the shop to buy things. I think this is a good amount and I'm happy to have it. I got to know that these tokens are also going to play an important role in the next edition of packs but I think I should spend it now to buy more cards. Obviously I'll be buying packs whenever the packs are available in the game but for now I am trying to have a good card collection which will empower my battle experience on the battleground.
This is the balance I have in my account where you can see I have more than 75K glint. I also have some other stuff which is not relevant to the shop but since I have it so later I will use it the way it should be so let's go ahead and buy some cards in the shop.
There are four options available in the rarity draws and I think I should go for the rare draw. There is a limit of hundred and if I go with hundred I need to pay 75,000 glint which I have. Rare is the category which is one level above and common but two level down from the top that includes legendary and epic. I will continue to buy all those down the line but for now because I have limited currency so I should use it in a proper way that can be good for my account growth and help me prepare a good cards collection.
I have very limited amount of alchemy potion so there is no point taking this box so I just confirmed the transaction to proceed further. I have done the transaction and also opened all the cards but because list is long so I don't want to share all here. Just to give the glimpse of cards I have received i'm sharing the snapshot for just fifteen cards and these are good addition to my game I believe.
I play in the higher league because I believe the experience is next level if I play with the high level cards. Probably in my case I got the opportunity to play with high level cards in the beginning and that is why now playing with basic card is not fun anymore. I got it because my mentor delegated me a bunch of cards which I still have and these cards are helping me on the battleground. I have also got a bunch of SPS delegation which is another fantastic reward I have got and it is helping me to get nice in game reward.
I also own SPS but that balance is nothing as compared to what I have received as part of the reward. I will continue to grow my sps balance time to time but it is going to take some time because I cannot buy just a big quantity overnight. Many things are available on this platform which I am planning to accumulate over the period of time. Building is a process and I believe it cannot be done overnight unless you are millionaire so I am not but I am focused and I will be following this approach to accumulate and build gradually over the period of time.
This Season
The progress I have made so far in the season is shared here as well where I managed to unlock Gold League. In the beginning of this season it was highly competitive on the battleground so I played few battles to avoid more loss. Now I understood one thing very clearly that I should not be playing more in the beginning of the season because a lot of high level card players are there and they just try to move ahead. I'm not in the position to compete with them so its better for me to take a pause for some time and start once they are already on the higher leagues.
Today I played a good number of battles in the morning and it helped me to unlock the gold one league so I am now ready to play more and unlock the Diamond League. I hope this is going to be a bit easier for me which has been the case already but I'm still expecting more so that unlocking diamond is not a challenge for me.
Let's see how it goes and how many battles I win that is helping me to move forward in the game and unlock the Diamond League because ultimately I'll make sure that I unlock the diamond. Diamond is the best league for me as of now considering how much SPS delegation I have and it can give me good reward boost also. I play in modern format only and have not even played a single battle in wild because it is not for me as I do not have the card from the older editions. I have all the cards from the latest edition and these cards are eligible for me play in modern format. Also survival is not for me because it is for those who are well in the game and newbies anyways have a very little number of cards so I think it is not for them.
