Hello Splinterlands community! A new season has began and last season, I got an extra reward of 100,000 Glints for placing 35th in the Diamond Leaderboard.
But for this post, I would like to share how amazing my Conclave Arcana Pack opening experience was. As a long-time fan of Splinterlands — since August 2021, opening new packs is like unwrapping a gift on your birthday—except this time, it was even better. The artwork, the abilities, the hype from the community—it all built up the perfect storm of excitement. And finally, it was my turn to dive in.
The Opening Begins – The Thrill is Real!
“Let’s goooo!”— I said to myself, hoping to get good cards and boom, the animation started. The cards flipped, each cards reveal its own beauty and abilities to me.
My first pack had some really cool cards, including a Gold Rare Summoner and a cool Epic card. Pack after pack, I was hooked. The randomness, the glow of Gold cards, and the hope of pulling a Legendary kept me going. I got several cards with the new abilities like Reckless and Bloodline Dominion. These aren’t just flashy—they completely change how battles work in the game. You can feel how much effort went into this new set.
I ended up opening 14 Conclave Arcana Standard Packs, and each one felt like a mini celebration. Sure, not every pack had a golden card, but that’s the beauty of it—you never know what’s coming next. And when a rare or legendary card does pop up, it feels earned. I also bought 7 Conclave Arcana Starter Packs, which is way cheaper than the Standard Packs.
Regular Pack vs Starter Pack – Which is Better?
Now, let’s talk about value. A few friends asked me: “Is the Regular Pack worth it compared to the Starter Pack?” After my experience, here’s my honest take.
Starter Pack:
Regular Pack:
If you’re just starting out in Splinterlands or don’t want to spend much, the Starter Pack is a great intro. You’ll get some decent cards to learn the game and get familiar with Conclave Arcana.
But if you want the full experience—the thrill, the real power cards, and a better shot at building a strong deck—the Regular Pack is totally worth it. You get way more chances at stronger abilities and higher-level cards. Plus, the Regular Packs just feel more rewarding.
Final Thoughts – Would I Do It Again? Absolutely!
Opening Conclave Arcana Packs was one of the most exciting things I’ve done in Splinterlands lately. It brought back the joy of discovery, the fun of surprise, and the energy of pure excitement. Whether I got a common or legendary, every flip felt like I was part of something magical.
I’d 100% recommend the Regular Packs to anyone who wants a deeper and more thrilling pack-opening experience. Just make sure you have enough potions to boost your chances—it really makes a difference!
This isn’t just a card game anymore. Because of the new abilities and Bloodline Dominion, Conclave Arcana made it feel like a full fantasy adventure, and I’m here for it.
