Hi. Yeah, I bought one round of orbs, and based on the cost versus the level of cards (in addition to the amount of DEC I projected to be able to earn steadily into the future) I made the judgement that it would be best to NOT continue to spend my limited DEC on the orb cards, and even converted the first batch into DEC. I will continue to monitor the functionality of those orb cards as I battle other players who hold them, but in my personal situation it is a more productive use of my resources to purchase the +5 reward card potions throughout each season (which is between 1-2 --> so 2,500 DEC or 5,000 DEC) and use the rest of the DEC (ideally 2,000 for each of my Steemit posts) to earn a nice, steady return to buy new non-reward cards, as needed. Plus, at least with the reward deck (as opposed to the orb deck) I know that I can consistently build my deck in a more organic manner (through battling). Now that you have mentioned it I will RE-CONSIDER and experiment to see if the UNWANTED reward cards I earn could be used to buy the orb cards. But it just seems like a more "uphill battle" building the orb deck versus the reward deck (and then converting unwanted cards to Steemm and purchasing WANTED cards). Good feedback, though, and thanks for the ReSteem...
