How do you only have so little cards? Surely you can't be playing in Bronze League for 3 years.
I was in the Silver III league a few times. I sold all of my beta cards a few years ago. I did that, because I needed the money.
With some of the income from Hive, you could have rented (if you didn't feel inclined to buy) cards regularly and played in the higher leagues for better rewards.
Nowadays I rarely rent and buy Splinterland cards. There is no encouragement from the game, but only force and punishment.
And I do not like this.
Splinterlands was a very good game in the past. It was one of my favorites. But the changes in the recent past is indeed feels like an attempt to kill the game by bleed it out.
Force and punishment will not encourage players to invest in the game. It will only scare them away.
I understand your point, but the developers should use a different approach. Encouraging players to invest in it would be the best for this game, and not forcing and punishing them.
If the game would encourage me, then I would feel inclined to buy and/or rent cards. I hope that the developers of the game will consider a different approach to reach this with the game.
Otherwise Splinterlands will slowly lose its players in the lower leagues.
I appreciate that you wrote your views and thoughts honestly. Thank you.
Good luck and have fun.
Have a nice day. All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
