With such a popular game that Splinterlands became in the crypto-verse, and hopefully a bit beyond it, pulling people from outside into blockchain gaming, it's nice to see a hosting of apps being developed for Splinterlands as well.
I still consider PeakMonsters the best and most complete companion tool for Splinterlands, but there are others that do a very good job on their slice of the playfield.
One of them was presented in this week's Splinterlands Town Hall, and it's a tool for managing guilds developed by NFTy Arcade Guild for guilds (the external kind, not the in-game ones). Interesting stuff...
But that's not what I want to talk about.
Up until recently, I used the Season Report Card from SplinterStats to have a breakdown of my rewards at the end of the season.
This time it was very slow in finding the previous season's start probably after looking through more than 250k blocks, which is a lot.
Anyway, there is another tool I gave it a try for the first time a couple of days ago. Its name: SplinterShare.
I believe they are building a database with Splinterlands-related info, and they are querying that database for information. Certainly, they are not looking for it on the blockchain in real-time, because everything is almost instantaneous.
All you need to do is enter your username and hit Enter or click "Search for my last reward".
What is even more interesting is that you can navigate between the recent rewards you have received (both seasonal and daily rewards) and see them in a nice visual representation, with doubles added together, DEC, potions, and the number of packs totaled. And at the end an evaluation of your rewards worth in dollar terms.
For a quick, succinct, and visually appealing option, and the possibility to navigate between recent rewards, SplinterShare is what I'd use.
But Season Report Card offers a more in-depth analysis, broken down by type of assets and how you got them. And it accounts for rental income, which SplinterShare doesn't.
On the other hand, Season Report Card doesn't tell me anything about the rental income alone, if I hadn't played with the account during the previous season. And I don't play with my account from where I rent out cards, generally. That would be a nice addition, I suppose. Either that or I'll have to start a quest on that account even if I don't follow through if I want these stats.
That being said, let's see what were my rewards this season:
"Only" 66 champion chests, but I played almost 2 days in gold (started from G2) and I haven't played on the last day of the season.
Curious about how this season will be because I started from D2.
Let's return to the rewards... :)
Let's see... I've received two legendary cards (Harklaw and Jared Scar), one epic card (Lava Launcher), and one common GF (Blood Maker). That's for the cards.
I've got 11760 DEC and no less than 5 packs!
I also received 3 legendary and 4 alchemy potions.
SplinterShare evaluated all these rewards at 33.44 USD. At today's prices. But if we think in perspective, that can be much higher.
I'll have to say, that's pretty awesome! I don't know if on average these are great rewards for champion chests or not, for the new style, but I am pleased.
5 packs, 2 legendaries, 1 epic, 11k+ DEC... I don't even care about the dollar valuation... at this time.
The happiest I am about Jared Scar, one of the new reward cards, which I check out for the first time.
Bloodlust, an ability I really appreciate.
True strike, to not miss higher speed cards.
Piercing, to go through armor, with its huge attack power.
Strengths:
- high chance of pulverizing defenders because of huge attack power + piercing + true strike, triggering bloodlust
- life splinter has lots of armor and protection options
- decent mana cost
Weaknesses:
- low speed (but it's great for reversed order ruleset)
- low life, but bloodlust can help with that if he kills a few times and you have tank heal
- vulnerable to magic
Overall, it's not one of the most powerful reward cards, but it has its niches when it'll become a beast.

Definitely a much better rewards structure than last season, the daily focus might need a few tweaks though.
Yeah, I heard some changes are about to drop.
Btw, here are my rewards from the previous season (May 16th), for comparison. I just realized I can make an exact comparison.
I received 80 normal reward chests valued at 17.67 USD (so half what I received this season for 66 champ chests). No legendaries, 2 epics, 2 GFs, 753 DEC, 2 packs, and a bunch of potions was the harvest. Definitely better the new rewards system!

I didn't know about splintershare. That's quite a nice tool. Thanks for sharing :-)
You're welcome! I didn't know about it either until a couple of days ago.
Oh wow. Thanks for sharing. I got $24 worth from 74 chests last season.
Didn't know how miserable daily rewards are until now 🤣
I like this format and will use it for my posts 👍
Don't look at their dollar value now. Keep them and evaluate them when asset prices are booming.
I need to use splintershare, the output is just beautiful.
Yep, it is. And I zoomed out, so they all entered one screen, otherwise, they have the size of normal cards.
Wow. Amazing pulls, I only have $7.3 worth of pulls from my 61 Gold Chests.

I'm not sure if yours are average pulls or not for gold chests. Try to find other people who played for gold chests and in the same league as you and you will see how you did.
It's below average, compared to my friends' gold accounts. I'm still glad I got those.

Luck changes. I wasn't very happy with my rewards from the focus chests, for example.

Congratz!!! I got 72 champion chests but value only $21.84. 1legendary, 2 packs, no epic, dec 14.5k. So you have lesser chests but you got a better opening than me! Cheers.
Thanks! Luck changes. Maybe you had better luck with focus chests. I know I generally wasn't very lucky with those.
Thanks for sharing the new site.

You're welcome.
A very strong card, if pumped! Congrats on the pretty good chests!
!CTP
Thanks! It has both strengths and weaknesses, but it can be very strong in certain types of games.
Thanks for the tips, I used Splinterstats right away, very nice tool!
!CTP !PIZZA
They are both very useful. Season Report Card from Splinterstats only shows stats about the last season, while SplinterShare shows you all the recent reward claims you've made.
Oh! I like that Jared Scar! I want to test its power in actual battle, but the last time I checked its rental fee, was still too high for me.
It's normal. It's a new legendary rewards card, everyone wants to test it. :)
Thanks, for the websites. That will come in useful.
You're welcome.
