First of all: !PIZZA and !PGM
Good and consistent article! And again sad to read! :(
-My remarks:
Switzerland or Japan
I think (ok know) Japan beat (not so long ago) World Champion Germany in this match.
Switzerland did fairly good in one of the last European Championships.
So there is still hope for you! :D
That is just gambling.
That is true, but also part of the thrill in trading card games. And that is how it is and always was ever since someone started to print sports images on paper: Sheer luck! ;)
But as long as trading card games are there a more consistent tactic-oriented approach would be to ignore the first market and go straight for the second market. I know there are some Splinterlands players completely ignoring the first market and they are quite successful with it following a consistent strategy of purchases.
Not once. I have opened about 80 packs in Rising Star. Not only have I never gotten a Legendary, I have never even gotten an Epic card.
Same here, but the drop rates in Rising Star are really mean! ;)
Thanks mate! I agree...especially about Switzerland and Japan haha!
I am going to determine a new strategy for Rising Star and Splinterlands. Neither are "fun" to play in the same way that the nonblockchain games I play are, so my enjoyment always gets tied up in the ROI. And, it really is true that I never ever have good luck.
I guess it is sad, as you say, but really, the only sad part about it is that my luck in these packs is just a reflection of real life. Who cares that much about a game, right? I guess if I had a therapist they'd have a field day with why I get so mad about these eFFing packs haha! I can't explain it of course, but I am used to seeing everyone else (exaggeration I guess, since you also have been shut out of RS!) get amazing cards, lotto wins, raffles, bingo, and I just never do. It's up by my own bootstraps every time - so my strategy has to be consistent with that going forward.
If I come up with something coherent I will write it up. For all of us suckers who buy packs and get turds :)

Okay, I understand that you NEVER have luck! ;) Except for Rising Star that is not really true for me, at least regarding Standard Foil cards I guess my luck is still "above average" in Splinterlands pack openings. ;)
Nevertheless I think costanza once summarized it very good, all that you see are just others' triumphs they are showing off with. You don't know how many k of packs they opened before.
Hope it is NOT that bad! :((( As I remember you got some children so hey! cheer up! that is awesome! And best of all: You are still alive! ;)
Nevertheless: Keep us updated once your masterplan has been finished!!!

Haha! Whoever is running this simulation hates my ass lol
But, one thing about always having bad luck is that (a) you never take good things for granted, (b) you create very reasonable expectations haha and (c) you can always find less glamorous ways of moving forward. I know I said 1 thing and gave 3. That's how lucky YOU are hahaha
But in all seriousness, in the big big big stuff I have been very lucky...big health (I am unlucky in little health), big housing (I am living in my own home, even though the little home stuff is not good...everything breaks all the time lol), big career (don't earn much but have success), and like you say, big family and, in that case, little family too. Everything family for me has been spared from tragedy.
I hope the same is for you my friend!!

That is something positive, I am glad to hear! :)
I think for me it is somewhat okay-ish, thanks for asking! Although here are one or two more small tragedies regarding family/health, I think it could have been worse for me! ;)
In conclusion I think I move around the same average you do, but perhaps a bit more spikes upwards and downwards, as well.
