A few days ago I posted a pretty cool Super Fractor Foil Furious Chicken, asking if Splinterlands should include variants beyond Gold Foil. Please check it out and let me know what you think!
Firework Variant
Today, I am posting a Goblin Mech Firework Variant. Pardon the crude animation, as these animations are only a proof of concept. As I play the game and think about the future growth of the game, I am often dreaming about new and shiny versions of some of my favorite cards.
Gold Foil Successes
Splinterlands has done a tremendous job of making Gold Foil variants attractive, rare, valuable and functionally more important to your collection. They hit the sweet spot with gold foil variants. I cherish the few gold foils I have, and desire to own many others. However, due to their success I also would love to see some shiny animations or movement on the cards that create additional visually appeal to the gold 'foil' cards themselves. The incredible design space that an online blockchain card games provide, I have been really interested and eager to see if their will some spicy new varaints and effects that we could collect. Plus, I have a lot of trust that the dev teams would be really smart about how they implement these cards into the game.
Skin in the Game
I also want to shout out the Splinterland skins that you can purchase as very intrigung variants, although the cost is steep, and doesn't necessarily visually satiate my particular desire for exciting variants. Perhaps if variants were randomly inserted in packs or came as rewards it would feel a little different.
Future Varaints
What kind of animated variants would you like to see in Splinterlands?
If a Firework Variant did exist, would you try to collect them?
Would you rock an entire squad of Firework variant cards just to strike fear in the hearts of your opponents?
Dope! Definitely something collectors would want
Thank you Captain!!
