How's that for some shock and awe in a headline?
Last time I wrote a post, I was on the fence about this game.....
I was losing interest quick and was seriously considering an exit from it completely.
And then...Dammit!
They pulled me back in lol
I'm still not sure exactly how the next few months of my Splinterlands journey will go, but here's some things that have got me excited over the past week:
Winterfest Is Awesome!!!
The 'Winterfest' promotion that Splinterlands started has being rewarding participants with a brand new promo card - Arkemis The Bear!
What a beast!
And I dunno about everyone else, but it's got me buying more Chaos Legion packs! I've got him to Level 3 already and plan to get him to at least level 4 or 5 quickly. That 'Halving' ability is a lot of fun :)
Land & Runi
The team also opened up Land 0.5 which allows us to claims deeds on the map. This is a big first step towards the full launch of Land which is exciting!
And we can now stake and play with our RUNI cards....Of course, I haven't done this yet because that means I have to open up Metamask and painfully try to link accounts again LOL
My First Gladius Legendary
And as the end of season just passed, I got a chunk of merits in my rewards. Enough to go grab a single Gladius pack from the market.
Imagine my surprise....
I have gotten an epic a few times, and plenty of rare cards but this was the first ever Legendary card I pulled from the Gladius deck!
And a Dragon splinter too!!!!
I'll try to get her into a few matches this round and see how she does :)
All in all, my Splinterlands journey just needs 'excitement' I guess lol I'm not worried about the price of anything in the game, that's not why I'm here. I'm here to see the community get fired up with some fun events and developments actually taking shape.
The team wins on all accounts right now for me :)
Who knows where we will be in a few months from now....But things are looking up to me!
Congrats on the nice Legendary.

I know it not super community driven but I just rent all my cards. I will rent all my land too. It made the game super simple for me and even making me want to invest more.
Glad you are liking it again.
Larissa is awesome, but vulnerable so make sure to protect her. You don’t want a deep lurker to take her out in the first round.
When she gets that first kill though… she does not take prisoners 😉
I'm glad you're still a Splinterlands man, I think I found a type too Jon
"The 'Winterfest' promotion that Splinterlands started has being rewarding participants with a brand new promo card - Arkemis The Bear!"
I think being becomes been let me know if I'm right
Congratulations on the legendary, I pulled one today too!
The Runi is easy. It only seems hard. lol That's a barrier to entry so less people play it. 😃
I was a little annoyed it cost me $1.73 in ETH to stake it. I was worried I was going to have to do it every time I logged into the game, but it stayed staked even after logging out and logging back in so just the one-time fee. And believe me, it's been well worth it. It really is a great card! That rebirth trait, even though it's only one health, has made the difference a handful of times already. Fun!

how can I use my runi? no clue
I have been done with it for a while now. Still have the cards and renting out, but thinking about giving up and burning them to get some value out and use in other places. Still on the fence too though, not sure what to do with it at this point. Just lost it's luster I guess, too many bots at the lower levels.
My end of season rewards were a joke this time. Something like 46 chests for a total value of $1.10 or something awful like that. I bought 6 Gladius packs and didn't get a single Gold Foil in any of them. I think am going to start holding my merits until we have a high enough shop that I can buy the potions. It just doesn't make sense to throw the merits away at this point. Especially when I am only actively playing with my GF cards.

I think a proposal changed the potions for gladius into something where you can only pay DEC for them. They removed the merit option and I misunderstood that proposal.

Could be. Our guild doesn't have our store at the level we need yet though.
I read this post a while back and they mentioned that the merit option was removed.

Nice legendary card and that looks like an amazing card. Dragon magic monster with double attack. It just seems way too overpowered with the bloodlust.

As I told you last time. These guys have done well, you can get out of the investment but I would not hesitate to leave a part so as not to miss the next bull run.
