Hello My Fellow Summoners
Welcome back to my Splinterlands post, usually I write Splinterlands posts during weekends, however today I am writing during weekdays due to boredom. I have been taking a long rest regarding to my Autoimmune issue, so I have plenty of time away from work and I think... Well lets talk about Splinterlands today!
A week ago I wrote a Splinterlands posts about a Gladiator card, how people focused on setting in a couple of Gladiators and forgot to build up a good meta as the expense, here the link: @dewabrata/more-gladiators-won-t-make
Whilst writing that post, I realized that I did not have a good Gladiator cards. It happened because in the past I was playing other people accounts, not my own accounts. So my account here is lacking of good soulbounds cards, either they are rewards or gladiators.
So without further ado, I tried to buy as many Gladius cases I could get with the merits I have accumulated in the last few months.
I have managed to get 40 Gladius cases today and I am happy about this one. It is not a massive one but atleast I could get some Gold Foil Gladiator cards from it, and I have prepared some Power Stones to increase the Gold Foil drop rate.
Anyway 40 gladius cases are equal to 200 gladiator cards, and with 200 Power Stones I have, I should get around 2x2% = 4% Gold Foil, which is equal to 8 Gold Foil cards.
So let see whether luck will side with me or not...
this is the transaction : https://splinterlands.com/mana-well?t=9f6b5dcc098e25031bedfdce9bf79c839de9ecb5&ref=dewabrata
There are 30 type of cards that I get from this opening, so lets see them now
I have got 3 Gold Foil Gladiator Cards from the first 10 cards. They are Bertral Gobson, Chimney Wallstop and Hugo Strongsword. Overall this is not a bad ones.
The second 10 cards are worse than the first one. I only have 2 Gold Foil Gladiator cards there, and the rest are dominated by common cards that I already have their Gold Foil version.
The last and well... the least. It is the worst and I do not like seeing these 10 cards. I have Captain Katie and Quota Towershead there, so it's sad to see that the Gold Foil one is none of them. Katrelba Gobson is a great one, but still I prefer the other two ladies who gets the Gold Foil.
In the end, This is a bad pull. I have got 7 Gold Foil cards from 8 cards that I should have got if the Odd comes in fair. So I am a bit unlucky there, but to put this worse, I do not get any Legendary and All my Gold Foil cards are common rarity... except for one which is rare, but it is not something that interesting.
As you can see, I still have many Gold Foil cards missing or haven't acquired yet, and most of them are Epics and Legendaries. So my journey in Grinding for Gladius Cases is far from over, it is not even near the half way.
AT least I can see 3 cards that can be upgraded today, so let's see them now.
Krash Wanderford is a good card, I think he will come in handy during little league. However I have a big question mark about using this one, because I do not have any Gold Foil card that can help KRash Wanderford attack using weapon training ability. So will this card be helpful for me? well even I can not answer that.

The second one is Bertrol Gobson. This is a very good gladiator card for little league ruleset. I am not saying outside little league he is bad, it's just there are many other gladiator cards that are way stronger than him. I think this is a good upgrade, regarding he reaches the max level for Silver League cap.
The last one is my favorite Katrelba Gobson. Finally I get her at max silver league level cap. However in general, I prefer for a newer Gold Foil card such as Quora To0wershead, because level 5 Katrelba Gobson doesn't differ much from level 4.
You can argue that she has a new ability there, but that's a snare, and a Snare is quite useless for units that are bound to make kills. Snares effective for small hitters, but that's my personal opinion anyway.
That's my update on my Gladiator Cards selection. Overall it's not decent enough anyway. The next one I will try to boost with Blood Stones too, regarding I have very limited Legendary and Epic selection.
Ok that's for today post and Thank you for your visit here. See you in Splinterlands Battles!!!
