Welcome to another Splinterlands post, guys and I hope all of you are doing well in your lives and enjoying a fresh and energetic day with your loved ones. However, for those of you who are regular splinterlands players, all of you must be super busy right now trying to win your battles in the splinterlands arena. Because if we take a look at the ongoing ranked or frontier ranked season timer, only around 1 day and 20 hours remain for these 2 current ranked seasons to meet their end. So, if you have been actively playing in this season, you must be brainstorming in the arena to score as many wins as possible before the timer gets reset. Setting a goal is easy in this game, but chasing that goal and actually reaching your destination before the given time is something else, especially when you set your expectation high. Whether your goal is to win enough matches and reach a particular league tier to win league tier reward chests, or you are aiming for a glorious seat in the top champion leaderboard in ranked season or in the top gold leaderboard in frontier season, you have to start pushing and shoving more effectively my friend, because time flies faster in this universe and before you even realise, the timer will hit zero. On top of that, the season-end bloodbath has started already and players from all around the globe are now super active and playing with their undefeated card collection and impenetrable strategies. So beware and play with your best and I wish you all the best.
On the other hand, the frontier mode is about launching a pretty big update and I am sure you have already seen the maintenance notice if it is active in the game. This is the first big update for Frontier mode, where the team is about to introduce 4 new foundation jackpot cards in this mode, not to mention that all of these cards can only be obtained by receiving them while claiming daily mission rewards. There will be one card from each rarity type and apart from regular and gold foils of each of them, a few lucky ones will also receive the ultra-rare formats - black foil, gold foil, arcane and black foil arcane cards.
As announced, these cards do not appear in foundation packs or league tier advancement chests and can only be revealed when you claim your daily frontier rewards. Instead, they can only be revealed when a player claims his/her daily frontier rewards. Please note that these 4 foundation cards do not replace any existing rewards, so everything you earn currently from playing daily mission rewards will remain the same. These jackpot cards will be an additional bonus that can trigger or appear when you claim your daily challenge rewards. However, respecting its rarity, for a player, these jackpot cards will only have a 1.5% chance to appear as one of the four cards. Also, all of these 4 jackpot cards will be foundation extra edition cards and they will be fully pre-minted, added as a random bonus reward in frontier reward chests and will be an additional item to a player’s daily rewards, not a replacement but an addition. So, you don't lose your daily rewards at all, rather get a chance to win something extra and of course, it's ultra rare that will make your day certainly.
Let’s take a look a these frontier jackpot mint numbers to realise how rare they will be.
For Common, there will be a total of 25,000 RF, 1,250 GF, 150 BF, 50 GFA and 20 BFA cards.
For Rare, there will be total 5,000 RF, 600 GF, 50 BF, 25 GFA and 10 BFA cards.
For Epic, there will be total 2,500 RF, 300 GF, 25 BF, 10 GFA and 5 BFA cards.
For Legendary, there will be total 100 RF, 10 GF, 5 BF, 50 GFA and 1 BFA cards.
If you have looked closely, you have already found out that there will be only 1 BFA card for the legendary jackpot card, so who will be the ultra lucky one? Let’s keep playing and see if you become that lucky person to find this super ultra pro max card from those rewards. Anyways, let’s now take a look at those 4 jackpot cards to find out their stats and abilities below.
The common rarity jackpot card is called Aimee Whisperwind. This card belongs to the Water element and it comes from the Leonine bloodline. It will cost 9 mana to be used in battles and is ideal to be used in medium to high mana limit matches. The attack type of this monster is melee and apart from a good attack power, it also carries a large health, high speed, with 2 abilities - Opportunity and Fury.
The Rare type jackpot card is called Necrulencian Thief. This card belongs to the Death element and it comes from the Human bloodline.

The Epic rarity jackpot card is called White Chockdee. This card belongs to the Life element and it comes from the Mundane Beast bloodline. It will cost only 3 mana to be used in battles and is ideal to be used in low to medium mana limit matches.
