I may have missed the boat with land, but they are really dragging out the implementation. I just think they need to make the game viable for those without a ton of cash to invest.
I heard someone saying that the bots are a good thing as it means you can always find an opponent. It does mean the number of players is inflated. I wonder how many are humans.
I missed the boat also, judging from what Ive seen in the game since joining in August, my bet is most lands when people open them, will be common, and have a value between 50-200 dollars each, while a legendary might be worth 3k-10k, and a rare 300-800. Also individual plots that are common will carry an even lower value than a contiguous group of 10 commons, so people will sell these and cycle the money into more land plot claims hoping to pull a legendary. So I will be planning to pick up cheap random commons on the land opening day. IF i had a bunch of plots, id actually sell them as people do these flips searching for legendaries, could be quite a large spread.

Some people must be investing a lot, but I will just get what I can. We will see what happens, but it's always going to be uncertain.
Interesting strategy and information on land. Thanks.
I want to own more, but at these current prices of 300-350$ I have only bought one. I would love to buy some cheaper land, and I didn’t know it will be ranked.
There is a lot to learn with Splinterlands.

Yes its like a pack of land cards, could be common, rare, legendary rarity, and one of 8 different types, then magic or non magic or occupied, and rare chance of keep or castle. Chance its empty unoccupied also I believe. So people will want to open the plot claims hoping to get lucky with a rare or legendary but most will get commons and probably want to sell it and take their chances again on another claim. Just my theory.
Its been going on for over a year now. Better to get it right than rush out something that will tarnish the reputation of it.
Having recently dragged 2 accounts out of Bronze into the Gold league.. I can say that until you get into Gold you are playing mostly BOTS. The coding behind them is good these days, they are tough opponents.
They are tough to beat even when they are all L1 and I have better cards. I can only get to Silver I as my best cards are all for rent. It's a bit of daily fun anyway.
Hmm, I don't find the Silver league fun at all, Gold is where the strategy starts and you have to outthink your opponent. If they are called Enminers-171, of course.. you know they are not real.
True. I think a spellbook should include some credits. Not much, but enough to rent cards.
So people can start with 10 bucks with theoretical close to every card they want (for now every card is cheap to rent).
My opponents do not have the obvious bot names we have seen in the past. I have to find some compromise between rental income and the cards I actually use to play. I'm not buying many cards though. Maybe I should before they get stupid expensive.
