I try to always use the Chicken. That does not cost mana. My max tier is currently Silver III, but nowadays I very rarely reach it. I also realized that leveling up cards (especially summoners) cost a small fortune. This is not for me. Not for someone, who lives with multiple disabilities, under the local minimum wage in Hungary. My pension-like income is approximately $250 USD.
Splinterlands is half pay-to-win and half play-to-earn. But nowadays people with small budget do not have a chance.
So I stop playing Splinterlands at least for a few days.
Good luck and have fun to those, who keep playing.
I write "nowadays", because I am playing it since 2018.12.30, and it used to be more fair in the past. I remember one or sometimes even more cards for completing the daily quests, and not the shit potions like nowadays. And it was not this hard either.
I really hope that it will be more fair again in the past.
I give you some !PIZZA, some !LUV and some !hivebits.
Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
