In a few days, SplinterRents will cease to exist and close up shop. I am quite sad that a decision by 
However, my ranting and protests ended some time ago and I now need to look forward and decide how to keep gaining between 15,000 and 20,000 DEC a day. That is what my 'spares' amount to, as well as 
There is SPLEX of course, who unlike SplinterRents have adapted to the 1 DEC per transaction rule thrown upon us with little notice. SPLEX has a beautiful-looking website, which overwhelms the user with features but there is just one problem.

It's too fucking expensive for my tastes. I want my rent money and while the eye candy is nice, DEC is much nicer and dishing out 2,000 DEC a day grates.
So on the 7th of March, I will be cancelling ALL of my rentals and playing it by ear for a while. I do remember how to rent manually using PeakMonsters and for the expensive cards that will be my preference.
Adjusting prices is now a costly affair given the sheer amount of cards I have, so I will staunchly refuse to rent anything at a cost of less than 4 DEC per day. If cards don’t rent then they will come off the market and gather dust in my wallet.
...'L1 Screaming Banshees are going to be significantly higher to rent soon. From the 7th of March, all these renters will be making a net loss at these rates'...
That will include many 1 BCX cards but many beta cards of L2 and L3 that don't fit my price criteria. While I am pissed at Splinterlands for 'charging' their dedicated supporters and investors over the last few years to what amounts as 'eBay listing fees', I feel the lack of supply over time may force the rental values up.
I can see that many of the smaller cardlords are going to suffer with this new rule set and perhaps we may see another mass sale of reward cards being offered soon.
I am buying if you are offloading. I need those slaves to work my land, as well as many of the <4 DEC per day monsters I currently own. Something is going to happen after the 7th of March, and I am not quite sure what that is as yet.
...Cheap reward cards are being snapped up. There may be another glut of them on the market again shortly'...
The last packs of Chaos Legion are still for sale and being offered in a sale. I will be glad when this overprinted set is finally gone and out of print. While there's little wrong with the cards, it's a throwback to what Magic the Gathering did all wrong and that is producing too much.
I feel Splinterlands may have learned from Chaos Legion and will tone back the print run for the coming Rebellion. How much appetite the community has for another set cannot be speculated on, but RiftWatchers are barely moving.
...'Is Lily Shieldpaw the Queen of the Chaos Legion Legendary Summoners, as well as being the most expensive?'...
Recently I have been buying many Lily Shieldpaws. While Lily is no replacement for Byzantine Kitty I have a good feeling about this Dragon summoner. The control aspect gives the wielder a great advantage I feel, and even facing a Conqueror Jacek opponent, it still doesn't give them full control of their monsters' abilities.
...'
Speed does kill in Splinterlands, maybe he has a point.
Being the last summoner also makes Lily the rarest, but we all have to remember there’s still a shit-load of Chaos Legion packs out there still not opened.
Going forward a month, we will see Chaos Legion finally gone but don’t expect the prices of these cards to rocket. We are still living in a Chaos Legion over-saturated world and in the short term little is going to change.
...'The Land hype is real, everyone is waiting for Surveying to arrive, things might heat up after it does'...
By then surveying will be live and our useless plots are going to become a little more meaningful. Until then, it would be wise to scoop as many cheap Reward cards up as possible, preferably maximum level versions if you own many PLOT.
Splinterlands still have not made a final decision about Summoners on land which I personally find irritating. I do know they are not required but feel that if they do take up one of the FIVE slots per PLOT, a decent bonus should be applied depending on level.
The essence of Summoners is to whip your monsters into a frenzy and win battles. Why not utilise that same mentality on land?
