End of an era
I have known @xawi for a long time. I have shown her respect as I do to my teachers, and adore her just like my two daughters. She literally taught me how to play Splinterlands. Yes, this is true.
Xawi, The Princess of Splinterlands (as I like to call her) is one of the most exciting players of Splinterlands. I did a post on Xawi a while back. To me Xawi is a posterchild of what can be done as a success story for Splinterlands and Hive. People like Xawi gives me hope, that anything is possible!
As many of you know, Xawi plays TS-Warrior account for me for a while (I had to look it up, from May 08, 2021) and I have known her even longer (nearly 4 years). As her life moves on, she is getting more busy and it is hard for her to play 3 accounts, while working on her own business! So earlier today, we were discussing this and she decided to request that she just simply doesn't have enough time, and I agreed. Xawi will no longer play TS-Warrior. It is her decision and I am fully supportive of her. I want her to be successful in her own business. Hopefully, my daughters will someday buy products from Xawi's line of exclusive designer clothes. Oh, you didn't know, Xawi is a fashion designer and always wanted to open her own business and start a new line of clothing products! I wish her great success with this new venture. She will continue to play splinterlands for her personal account and other delegated account she pleases, until she will no longer have to play anymore and will direct others to play the game for her! I am certain Xawi can use a bit of time-off! Good luck, Xawi, and I am always open for any ideas or discussion that you want to run by me.
The reason I am writing a post about it is because, TS-Warrior is a distinguished account and I want people to know what is happening to it. As of now, I have un-delegated my cards from TS-warrior. The account is managed by @zaku, who manages all the TS- accounts as a part of Teamshare service, which is a scholar-for-hire service. Zaku will decide what will happen to the account in particular. I am no longer associated with the account after the staked SPS there is powered down, which will take 4 weeks.
Beginning of a new Era!
Folks probably know that Jayemm, the Magician of Manila, plays one of my delegated decks (th13-fu), so the question is who will play this newly available delegated deck that Xawi used to play. I had multiple options and many people reached out to me. However, after a long and hard thought and multi week long discussion and consideration (and even testing), I have decided @schnapoon will play this Max delegated deck. The wonderboy of Kochi, Japan (who is hardly a boy, but looks like one!) will be my new scholar. I have met him at the Splinterfest, and have seen him play. He was the runner-up of both live in-person tournaments. I like his humility, his determination, and above all his wonderful story! So from now on, he will be representing my delegated deck in addition to Jaye.
We have created a new account @azipoon! Yes! What a ridiculous choice of name! Not my idea guys, it is Schnapoon's idea. So curse The wonderboy of Kochi all you want, it is none of my business. The account sits at zero right now, but soon it will be in champions, and we will humbly fight for the leaderboard position. Watch him slice through the lower league next season as a hot knife through butter (I am thinking a win streak of 60 could be possible! eh?). Schnapoon is a veteran player of the Silver League, but he is quite new to champions, and I am sure it will take him some time to get adjusted. He will continue to play his personal account in addition to my delegated account. We will also invite him to join SOG family of guilds with azipoon (@xSuiLx will handle that)
The wonderboy of Kochi, to our land!!Ladies and Gentlemen; Summoners, Monsters and Battle Mages of Splinterlands; please welcome @schnapoon,

heh, Azir i will surely miss warrior but i had no choice. I didn't want to be selfish when i clearly knew i cant justify it. I wish you all the best with your new player. To be honest I am feeling a bit relaxed after the previous night. I just realised I was really under pressure. Splinterlands is my hobby I don't think I will ever quit playing this game because this is the only game I have ever played after candy crush. :P
But you never know what is the future holding for you or i might end up hiring a player for myself as well. as for now, I will enjoy as much as i can.
You are a great person Azir your player is lucky to have you. I will miss you
I am always around here Xawi. This is my home. For you I am always just a button-click away.
I will always say this, and I will say this again, you guys give me hope!
heh thank you so much Azir and i like that name azipoon hehe that's cute. would love to play against azipoon :p XD
Sure, would be fun for me to watch
awesome job @azircon ... its great to see that you are working with the amazing Japanese player @schnapoon ... You made a great selection and I will watch closely as I'm sure he will impress you with his great game mind!!!
Thank you Dave! Means a lot coming from you! I try my best to spread the word as much as I can.
You are great AZ, we all could learn from your mindset!!!
I will follow Xawi's example and move on too!
My goal is to one day gift you the #1 spot on the leaderboard!
That's awesome and congrats!
Thank you! This is my new challenge.
Hey, all the best. I don't know you but I guess now i know hehe. Azir is a great person and you will love playing for him. I am just unlucky i had to give up coz of personal things.
Thank you!!! I have referred to your playing many times. I thought it was very sophisticated. I'm rooting for you in your new endeavors and would be happy to interact with you in the future as part of the azir family!
LOL, thank you for saying that.
I, on the contrary, just want you to have fun, that's all.
Yes! I tend to make up my own obligations. Your words always save me.
Yes! I'll give it my all and have fun!
That alone is hilarious to think of all these players with these outrageous names in friendly competition!
I think that might happen next season! 100 out of 101 in a day is pretty damn impressive! Great job @schnapoon and congratulations!!! Its well deserved!
Truly inspirational, although an older post, I am glad to find others with similar advocacies. Thank you @azircon!
If you read all the comments you will get a glimpse into what this is all about
Schnapoon is a great player! I'm glad that you chose him as your new scholar 😃
He did great in Splinterfest. I'm sure he will do very well in champ too.
Yeah people can be good but they always need exposure, otherwise how the rest of us will be aware that he is good? Splinterfest did it for him. Gave him the much needed exposure.
thank is very true.
And here I was ready to raid your deck.... ;D
This is the Wonderboy's current season in Silver
No, he is NOT a bot :)
Geez!
dang he is gonna nailed on azipoon
You mentioned you were going to pursue this. I'm glad it came to fruition!
Yeah. Somehow the opportunity arrived
Cool to see this deck continue in such good hands 👍
Yeah, I am glad
Cool, Azir. Well done @xawi and all the best for your business. Hope you create a token for it as well on Hive engine. All the best to @schnapoon and hope he is able to reach the number one position.
Thank you Sayee. These are all hard working kids. We are proud to have them.
What a story, I really didn't know it, I think I need to read more LOL, however, I am very happy for @xawi and her new company, my best wishes for her, on the other hand, congratulations to @schnapoon for this valuable opportunity and to @azircon for being an example for these new players.
All this makes me want to strive much more, work on my deck and be a fighter who fights to be in the tops of the qualifying leagues, we'll see if next year everything is different and who knows if I can attend the "Splinterfest" and face the best players of "splinterlands".
Both their stories are quite amazing, one just starting and the other reached to a respectable level. There are lot more stories like this, not many people know. People usually just thinks about ROI, where is the time to learn and understand about fellow players :)
Thanks for reading.
I would like to read more about these stories, I think it would be a very good source of inspiration for many players starting out, at some point I will try to tell mine, how I went from having the best deck to selling it for trouble, and then coming back and starting over again making constant to play, maybe it could be supportive.
Thanks for these stories.
Write your own story, I am sure people will be interested.
Any real and honest story that is from true life, I think people crave for it.
That's good to know, so I'll try to tell it as well as I can.
hit us like an earthquake wow! haha. xawi, obviously a legend. ts-warrior too. congrats and good luck with all fashion endeavors. super excited to see what azipoon does with those cards though! as i understand from our guild's public-chat, the wonderboy of Kochi has many many fans in our group already 💪😁 very exciting and great post azir!
yeah, he is an exciting player, a real crowd puller at Splinterfest, That without speaking a single word if English is something I thought nothing short of a miracle. I have high hopes for him!
totally ridiculous. 🤪You won't regret taking @schnapoon, he really is a wonder-boy. And the name @azipoon has some ring to it, its not
yeah, I am looking forward to work with him
Here here... all hail the new powerful battlemage @azipoon! Congratulations @xavi on your new business opportunities! And of course many thanks to the wise splinterdaddy @azircon!
You are welcome. I have big plans.
I am very excited to see how it all plays out and very thankful to be a part of our Kingdom of Glory!
Lol, azipoon. Quality naming! :OD
its ridiculous! but what are you going to say to kids?! I just go with the flow..
It's the best way to be!
Azipoon sounds cool :)
That interview series you did with Xawi was legit. Gives me faith that it's possible with lots of work and learning the game. Huge milestones you're making!
Anything is possible with hard work and bit of luck
@xawi Very interesting!Looking forward to seeing what you'll create on that frontier.
Gamer to a businesswoman........that's the way it should be I guess :)
I didn’t know until now that Ts-warrior was your account dada! What world have I been living in 😂
You are living under a rock doc :)
Congrats @schnapoon and @xawi
Xawi is really a dedicated and gave her 100% to it's SL account.
