In my latest video we go through a return on investment with the latest reward system update.
I thought I'd throw a bit of DEC at the rental market and do an experiment in profitability with the new rewards system. Win streaks and card bonuses play such a crucial role with this new change, so I decided to rent out some cards so I could increase my win rate whilst also soaking up some of those extra rewards from these applied bonuses.
I'm not going to go into the details about exactly how the new reward system works, if you'd like to learn more about that and how you can make the most out of it you can go and watch my previous video on the latest update. In this video however, I will go over 3 days of rental costs and rewards to see how profitable renting could be.
The following are a few things considerations:
For the sake of continuity, in this experiment i'm going to try and spend around 500 DEC per day on rentals and push for an average of 12 chests per day if my capture rate will allow it.
(DAY 1):
482.676 DEC @ $0.001082 per dec - $0.522 cost.
I was handed the death focus. I struggled a little bit in gold because it was the start of the season and everyone was trying to claw back into their respective leagues, the players I were coming up against mostly had huge CP decks. The following were the cards I rented out. Nevertheless, I managed to get 11 chests even though I lost a decent portion of my matches. I made a total of $0.90 cents which procured a 73.0769% ROI.
(DAY 2)
554.206 DEC @ $0.001082 per dec - $0.59 cost.
I inherited the dragon focus which was great considering it's my favourite splinter. I misjudged the daily focus end time, therefore I didn't play as much as I could have and reaped lesser rewards because of it, something i plan to remedy in the following day. The following were the cards I rented out. In total I received 7 chests. Irregardless of playing less, I still made $1.74 from my daily rewards because I was playing mostly in Diamond III/II instead of gold which resulted in a 194.915% ROI.
(DAY3)
489.447 DEC @ $0.001082 per dec - $0.52 cents.
Day 3 I again was lucky enough to have the dragon splinter. I made up for misjudging the time remaining on day 2. I was in the swing of things and playing in diamond I, so I was acquiring a higher amount of rshares per win. These were the cards I rented which allowed me to push to a total of 20 chests. The following were my rewards, which in aggregate resulted in a profit of $3.88 or a 646.154% ROI.
In total for the 3 days my return on investment was 300% not counting my season reward chests. My accumulative total amount of chests thus far counting my season and daily focus quests is 88. 50 of these are my season reward chests and 38 are my daily focus chests. There are still 10 days remaining of the season, and considering I've reached 50 season chest rewards already, I'm pretty confident I should be able to receive over 100+ season chests by the time we reach the end of season. This would increase my ROI substantially. Last season for finishing in diamond one, I would have only accrued 60 chests in total, so this will be a huge improvement - especially considering the increased drop rate of higher value loot.
In the video I also go over a hypothetical of a whales ROI.
