Splinterlands is a nft card game and Riftwatchers is the latest booster pack. This is a mini edition with a total supply of 3 million and this edition has 43 different cards. The last edition was Chaos Legion with a total supply of 15 million later on, because there was number much demand in the market, the burn process started, and this is how the supply was exhausted. Now the same burn mechanism is ongoing for far rift watchers as well and soon we are going to see the mark up two 100 million packs sold or burned out. Because of the burn, we have also seen the airdrops coming faster in Chaos Legion and now in a similar way with riftwatcher we are about to have another card airdrop.

The next airdrop is a legendary card from Fire element, and it's called Immolation. We have very few cards costing 12 mana, and this is the one which means that it is a powerful card in the game and this monster is going to cause great damage to the opponent player if it is chosen in the battle. It is a legendary monster that can have up to four abilities on different levels and most of these abilities are helpful Blast is one of the best that does a lot of damage to the opponent player's team. Yodin Zaku is a fire summoner, and this is in demand because it gives blast ability to all the cards and now this card with blast ability is going to make the game more fun.
Immolation is a powerhouse of a 12 Mana Fire Legendary card that packs a big Magic attack that Blasts damage to enemies who are unfortunate enough to be too close to his target. He is also Shielded, reducing incoming Melee and Ranged damage, he gains strength when characters die on the battlefield, and he Inspires his teammates giving them increased Melee attacks while fighting by his side.
As of now approximately 68K packs are remaining for this airdrop which I think should be done in just a couple of days so most probably we are going to have this card before the weekend or max by the weekend. This is also possible because the burn is going and if the cards are not sold then also because of the burn the supply will reduce. The minimum requirement for this card eligibility is 275 packs but I bought 110 only so I know that I'm not eligible and this time it is not possible for me to buy another bunch of packs because I'm running out of DEC in my account. There will be one more airdrop after this one and that will require the eligibility of 300 packs so if you have purchased this number of packs then you should be happy because you will be getting at least one card out of the airdrop.
Now since I do not have the eligibility to get this card I'll be trying to get it from the market and this week I purchased one legendary monster called Doctor Blight because I got it at a low price. This is such a fantastic card in the game, and it was released at the time of Chaos Legion launch as the promotional card. The one I have is level two with three BCX, but I want to make it level 3 with 6 BCX so now I still need two more cards to upgrade my monster to level 3.
Usually after the airdrop, we can see the card in the market but initially price remains high however after a couple of weeks we can see the price going down and that can be the time when we can purchase this card from the market. I'm not sure what price is it going to be for this powerful monster in the market so I will look forward to seeing what tries tag is going to be for this beast in the market and if it is better then I'll try to buy it soon and if not then surely keep an eye for a better deal so that I can own this beast and make it part of my deck.
With the splinterlands, we keep on getting different cards from time to time and some also come as part of a promotion, but I remember it's been a long time and there has been no promotion card launched by the team. I expect that they should bring some car for SPS holders as they did in the past because this way the people who are holding SPR should be happy, and it is a kind of privilege that will be given only to the people who believe in token holding. I expect something to happen like this, but I don't know if that is a plan by the team so if it happens then I'm sure it is going to make a lot of people happy who are holding or accumulating SPS token in the game.
Thank you
