There hasn't been a lot of vibe going on, on splinterlands. This is probably because of the uncertainty that looms around the SPS requirement for maximum rewards.
However, low-key, a lot of people are loving the second tier of gaming which is the Guild, and believe me, I'm actually having a blast if you ask me.
This is the best outing of my guild because this is reflected in the merit and SPS rewards I got this time around. It was a sweet 2.2k merit and 21.7 SPS. This enabled me to purchase two Gladius packs. I initially had about 1800 MERIT.
My stats were decent, I mean 4 wins and 3 losses,
.....In one of the battles I played, I was outdone by one particular gladius card, and in one other game, a gladius card was one of the reasons why I won.
Opening the Gladius packs brings a nostalgic feel of hope, desire, and expectations, but I opened the pack and in the second pack, it was a sweet QUORA TOWERSHEAD!!!.
it's probably overrated to be excited over something, but the truth is that this is an in-game asset that one cannot buy with money. The in-game damage or effect it creates is unimaginable and there are people who could do anything to have just one BCX of this card.
I mean, Imagine having a bloodlust ability on a healing ability?
.....now imagine having such an ability in a match where Melee cards can attack from anywhere. I mean, not a lot of strategy can destroy this card, especially when the bloodlust takes shape.
Although a strategy built around a cursed windeku and a Thaddius Brood summoner, but even at that, that win might never be comfortable. One of the things I've come to understand is that Gladius cards defy the odds, I mean.
There are certain rulesets and parameters that are too difficult to navigate and sometimes a Gladius card comes in handy and saves the day. Without my Guild involvement, I might never have gotten there.
My excitement is that I got one of the deadliest cards on splinterlands. It's just like the feeling of owning even one BCX of the legendary ZAKU.
THE soulbound cards have made it possible for people to own assets based on their hustles and game involvement rather than their money or how rich they are.
So, while the ZAKU might be out of my reach due to financial constraints, I'm happy to be getting a card, due to my diligence and involvement in Guild battles. It's a recompense that often keeps players battling it out on splinterlands.
The SPS rewards are just so Incentivizing and the merit comes in handy for building you a second-tier deck, which money can outrightly not be able to buy.
So, it's exciting to get one of those cards that I've not beaten whenever I've come up against it and one of the funniest things is that it's actually an epic earth card.
Funny thing, away from Quora, I might have also just gotten one of the most dangerous Gladius cards I've ever played against and the stats of this card is unbelievable, ladies and gentlemen, the Katrelba Gobson. This card has a +2 melee attack: a bloodlust, a double strike, and a stealth ability.
I've played against this card and the utility is unbelievable, the double strike quickly activates the bloodlust and when this happens, then this card becomes unplayable.
It's quite a feat to see that I've gotten this card, although the speed and health, seem to be the biggest weak link, but in certain rulesets, this card is unbelievable.
Away from this, it's been a poor season, but my Guild involvements have been insanely rewarding, I was able to buy and open two packs, and merit rewards have been an integral part of my reward which I now value so much.
The exciting thing about having plenty of card resources at your disposal is that it makes it possible for you to reduce your losses and increase your win,
but they might not guarantee an increase in the quantity of your dollar-based reward assets, because of the changes that are happening.
Over time I can only increase my win rate in my guild involvement, and possibly the rate of SPS we can pull in the Guild play. It's been an amazing outing, I hope this reflects on the season's reward as well.
