“Every spark has value; it's how you use it that determines the fire it ignites." - @uyobong

The concept of Glint rewards on the Splinterlands game has been an exciting one for me. Each time I earn these points, knowing their worth and usefulness, I appreciate the ingenuity of the SPlinterlands developers and strategists who thought of that reward system. I was bereft of rewards in my early days as a SPlinterlnad player. All I enjoyed was the "free-to-play" concept of the game and the lessons I drew from the battles. It was pretty difficult to earn SPS, even when winning battles and trying to rise from the base league.

However, earning Glint rewards is one thing, knowing he to use it is another thing, hence, the quote that every spark has value; it's how you use it that determines the fire it ignites. This quote captures the idea that Glint may seem like a small reward at first, but when used strategically, it can unlock greater benefits in the game. Though they may come small depending on your league, SPS staked and other factors, when spent wisely, can lead to greater victories in the game. This is because you can use the rewards to unlock amazing cards to upgrade the strength and capacity of your battle deck.
