# A new experiment! - Splinter Stats Ranked Rewards Season 31 Report Card
@aussieninja
Hi everyone!
I tried an experiment for Season 31.
The basis of the experiment was this...
Is it easier to get a higher ranking if I wait until the last couple of days and storm up the ladder?
In Splinterlands, when you get a decent winning streak, the percentage bonuses really start to stack up, so potentially you could get much higher with less games by waiting.
Let's see how this experiment went...
Match Report
Performance
| Stat | #Wild | #Modern |
|---|---|---|
| Rank | Gold #932 | Gold #171 |
| Rating | 2563 - Gold I | 2662 - Gold I |
| Rating High | 2619 | 2678 |
| Ratio (Win/Loss) | 1.40 (21/15) | 1.13 (26/23) |
| Longest Streak | 5 | 5 |
It went bad.
It went really bad.
For reference, last season I got 3060 - Diamond III in Modern.
The problem was that there are still very decent decks and players in Gold all season long. I couldn't overpower anyone with card levels and there were lots and lots of accounts in both Wild and Modern that could stop me.
Each day, I would play once in Wild and once in Modern, and just stop as soon as I lost a game... and try again the next day. I barely got anywhere, which was fine, because I wanted to still be fairly low with just 2 days to go to start my winning streak run.
Unfortunately, in those last two days I couldn't get any momentum... so I was left with a low rank, and not many loot chests. I got 20 whereas the seasons before I got 54, 47 & 66.
A worthwhile experiment, I think you need to check yourself every now and then to see if there are better ways to do something, but ultimately it was not successful for me. I'm already higher than both these rankings in the current season in the Wild league with 6 days to go.

83 cards versus 242 last season. Yeah, ouch!
My strategy for this season is to just try and get 5 Daily Focus Chests each 24 hours.. and hopefully that helps me get about 50 Season Loot chests for the season. I'm already at 33 with 6 days to go so this seems really achievable. I know the Daily Focus Loot Chests aren't relative to the Season Loot Chests, ie, 5 focus chests doesn't equal 5 season chests, but it's an achievable goal that I can keep pushing each season.

Rentals are still on their downwards trend... and I don't expect this to stabilize until well after Land 1.5 settles down.

I just noticed that the "Land Rewards" row has been removed from this report. I'm still getting Land Rewards and expect to up until Land 1.5 goes live... and then I'm actually planning to set a couple of plots to farm SPS so I think maybe this row should continue 
Unless maybe there is going to be a new section of this report for Land once it drops... which would honestly be super cool.

I think I'm really happy with my strategy to aim for 5 Daily Focus chests every day. When you lose a lot, you do start to question whether there are better uses of your time (obviously there is... but are they as fun?) but this small goal will provide a little daily victory in itself.
It looks like Land 1.5 is so close, so I'm really excited to see how that will go.
I am a little worried about Rebellion being released this calendar year and what that might do the overall card inflation of the game... but I also understand that the team needs to generate revenue to keep building this super fun game for us all. Guess we'll just have to see how it all pans out.. hope to see you on the battlefield!
