Chapter 38: I Upgraded the Same Splinterlands Card Yet Again… And It's Finally Starting to Look Like a Max-Level Monster!
Thirty-eight upgrades.
One single card.
A journey that keeps proving that patience can build something extraordinary.
Most Splinterlands players spread their resources across dozens of different cards, always searching for the next opportunity or the latest addition to the meta.
I decided to take a completely different approach.
Instead of constantly expanding my collection, I've dedicated myself to improving one card over and over again, documenting every upgrade along the way. Today, that adventure reaches another exciting milestone with Chapter 38.
Another copy has been merged.
Another level has been unlocked.
And this card is becoming one of the strongest investments I've ever made in Splinterlands.
Building Strength Through Consistency
When I published the first chapter of this series, I simply wanted to see how powerful a single card could become if I never stopped investing in it.
I never imagined that the project would grow into a long-running series with dozens of updates and milestones.
Thirty-eight upgrades later, this card has transformed dramatically. Every level has made it more useful in battle, more valuable inside my collection, and one step closer to reaching its ultimate form.
Looking back at the early chapters makes today's achievement even more satisfying because the progress is impossible to ignore.
Why I Continue Upgrading the Same Card
Many players enjoy collecting as many different cards as possible, and that's one of the things that makes Splinterlands so enjoyable.
My strategy has been different from the beginning.
Rather than chasing dozens of new cards, I've chosen to maximize the potential of a single monster and watch its evolution unfold one upgrade at a time.
Every new level gives me meaningful benefits:
⚔️ Better performance in ranked battles.
⚔️ Improved stats and stronger abilities.
⚔️ More Collection Power for my account.
⚔️ A more valuable long-term investment.
⚔️ Another step toward owning a fully maxed version that I've built myself.
Each individual upgrade may seem small, but after thirty-eight consecutive improvements, the overall transformation is incredible.
Another Chapter Completed
Reaching Chapter 38 reminds me that long-term goals are achieved one small step at a time.
This series has become much more than a simple card upgrade log. It's a personal challenge, a record of my progress inside Splinterlands, and a way to share my journey with the amazing Hive community.
I'm truly grateful to everyone who has been following this project, reading each chapter, and encouraging me to keep going.
Today's upgrade is complete.
Chapter 38 is officially in the books.
The journey isn't over yet...
I'll be back soon with Chapter 39, where this card will grow even stronger as I continue pushing toward its maximum level.
The purpose of these blog posts is to show the progress I’m making with my cards, including the SPS I earn in battles and clan wars, as well as the Glints I collect and the Gladius chests I open
