Set Cards and Set Rentals are a great addition to the Splinterlands game. The concept of bundling cards is not new in Splinterlands. If you visit PeakMonsters, you could find that the website provide tools to Create A List of cards and sold them as bundle. Bundling or making set out of several cards could save a lot of time. Currently the Set Cards use are focused for Rental needs. A total of 136 cards from Chaos Legion editions and its Rewards cards must be available to create a single Set. This is not a an easy task. Normal and Rare cards are easily attained from booster packs and battle. But collecting the whole Epic and Legendary will take some times. Even after active in Splinterlands for a year since Chaos Legion released, I still only collect 62 cards out of 136 cards.
The Set itself require a minimum level for each rarity level to be listed. Normal card must be at least Level 3, Rare card must be at least Level 2, and so on. The most difficult one might be Epic cards which require at least Level 2, while it needs 3 bcx to combine Epic cards to Level 2.
FURTHER SUGGESTION
The concept of bundling and creating set is a very good concept to be developed futher. Not only for Rentals, but In-Battle should also be considered. With the increasing number of cards (especially with the upcoming release of Rebellion reward cards), its become more and more difficult to navigate into entire collection during the battle. Of course there is already filter based on Elements, Rarity, or Editions; but sometimes its not possible to constantly changing filter to get the ideal cards for your formation.
I always thought Set of cards created for a battle should be a good idea. Players should be given more freedom to built a compilation of cards tailored to anticipate certain battle rulesets. For example a set of cards to consist of high Health and Fly cards suitable for battle under Earthquake ruleset. So in a battle with such ruleset, players could easily choose the Set and presented with a handful of cards necessarily needed, and thus avoid an excessive cards to navigate.
Players certainly have cards collection with varied levels. When entering higher league with higher level caps, there's no filter to select only cards which exceed certain level limit. Therefore players have to put extra time to check the levels of their cards. This could turn into a disadvantege, if players incorrectly select cards which fall behind in level. A Set cards could turn into solution. Players could built Set consisting of cards with certain level and beyond. Therefor when using the Set on a battle, players are freed from checking whether the cards to be used are fall behind in levels.
CONCLUSION
I haven't get a chances to test the Set Rentals due to lack of cards collection. But the requirements to have the entire collection of an editions is really a great constraint. Rather than fulfil the entire editions, players should be given more freedom to compose their tailored Set and not be bounded to certain editions.
