Wish you all a brand new splinter season and hope all of you are doing well. Well, it鈥檚 been already 2 days since the new ranked season has started and I guess most of you have already started battling and climbing the leaderboard. But for me, after playing in the last season, my ECR was in a very bad condition and almost touched the 0%. So I promised myself not to touch the Ranked Battle button until my ECR rate get recharged back to 70% at least. Till now I have successfully recharged it to 53% so there鈥檚 only about a day more of waiting before I can again jump unto the bloody battlefield.
Due to the recent FTX incident and crypto market crash, most of the major crypto coins are down and our Hive and splinterlands also got affected by this unwanted downtrend. While BTC is selling for only 16,960$ per unit and ETH for 1,283$, our hive鈥檚 value has also got reduced down to 0.365$ per unit. Looking at splinterlands, along with it鈥檚 2 major tokens SPS and DEC, most of the summoners and monsters card from both wild and modern format are now selling for way cheaper and I think it鈥檚 the best time to buy missing cards in your deck and make your collection stronger. I am playing Splinterlands since beginning and as an old player, I have survived downtrends before and certainly know that the good tomes are not far away. But in meantime as this dip lasts, which I think will stay for a while, it will be best to invest and earn as much as possible and build a good wealth.
I am also working continuously working on my playing collection and since last month, I am buying max level Rift, Untamed and Dice monsters one by one that I am missing in my playing collection. Till now, I have bought 12 of those new edition Rift cards and among them, I have 3 legendaries, 1 epic, 5 rare and 4 common max cards and no doubt all of them are serving me well in that bloody battlefield. Clearly I am still missing many cards from the old untamed and dice and as nowadays the prices for those old cards have also come down lower by a large bit, I am trying my best to bag some important cards into my collection. I have recently bought two very important legendary untamed max cards - Dragon jumper and High Priest Darius, both of which are a must have in your collection in order to win against top players in Diamond or Champ. Also, as I was missing almost all the Untamed Life cards, I bought another 3 awesome max level Life unmated cards - Crystal Jaguar, Truthspeaker and Cave Slug from market and also upgraded my Herbalist from level 9 to 10 now obviously, my Life deck is much more powerful now.
However, the endless journey to become one of those top players in splinterlands still continues as I still have many of those furious summoners and monsters missing in my collection. But as the card market is basically offering everything on high discount, I gain bought 3 more max cards just recently which I ma about to share below.
FROST LIONThe first card that I bought was a max level Frost Lion. This one is a dice edition from the Water realm and it costs inly 2 mana to be used in battles. It is a melee attack type common card and looking at it鈥檚 stats, at max level it possesses 2 melee attack at 4 speed with 2 armour and 3 health along with 2 abilities - Void Armour and Shield which makes this card very defensive.
I found a good deal on market and bought a max level Frost Lion for only 54$ and used credits to make the purchase and received 2247.439 DEC as cashback for using monstermarket.io.
CORSAIR BOSUNThe second card that I bought is one the great Rift cards the Bosun and spent around 97$ to buy a max level of this card from market. I already rented and used this card in ranked and it鈥檚 super useful in medium to high mana matches. At max level, it has 6 melee attack at 3 speed with 5 armour and 9 health along with 3 awesome abilities - Reach, Reflection Shield and Cleanse.
I was keeping an eye particularly on this card鈥檚 price and finally found a max one under 100$ so without wasting anymore time, I bought the card using dec and spent around 1,32,631 DEC after this special card. Not to mention that I used the monstermarket to make the purchase and also received approx 3,979 DEC as cashback instantly.
RUNESLINGERThe third and last card that I bought recently is none other than the Runeslinger. This rare type Rift card is gaining popularity very fast because of it鈥檚 strong stat + ability combo. A max level of this card possesses 3 ranged attack at 4 speed with 8 health along with 3 abilities - Stun, Affliction and Cripple. This card costs inky 5 mana to be used in battles so you can try using even in small to medium mana limit matches as one of your main attackers.
As I was checking for Rift card prices randomly in market, I found a eye catching deal as a max level of this card was selling only for 27.90$. So, without waiting any further, I went to the monstermarket.io website and bought this card for 27900 credits and as usual received around 1,132.5 DEC as cashback instantly in my Hive Engine acc.
So, these are the 3 cards that I recently bought and added into my playing collection and hope they will bring more wins in future. Do you own any or all of these cards that I mentioned above? What鈥檚 you favorite card among them 3 and why? Let me know in the comments below and I will be seeing you all in my next post.
