I have a couple of Chaos Legion packs still. I thought they might go up in value a little with the burn mechanism introduced, but I think it has looked more like a burn MEHanism. I suppose that is ok if I didn't ever need money or if I was some genius at playing Splinterlands. But I do need to pay bills and my lifetime win % on Splinterlands is only 50.35%. So...between me being bored and pack and card values still being low, low, low I think it would be fun to open this pack rather than wait and hope that these packs will increase in value.
It would make me feel so happy to get some great cards from this pack, then. It is exciting opening packs, that tingling of hope as you click each one!
Pleeeeeeeeez Legendary, pleez!
Well.
"He once again realizes he hates his unlucky life, but maybe this is the day it all turns around? One last chance at happiness?"
I should be used to this by now. I have no idea how many packs I have opened in Splinterlands, but up until this very moment I have Never Gotten a Legendary card.
(In the interests of full disclosure, I did get one in Gladius, but that does not count I think because of all the restrictions on those cards, can only use one per battle, only in frays, can't be traded so don't add value to my deck, etc... I mean of course if I got lucky it would be with all those restrictions that make it feel unlucky anyway, right?)
So far, the value of these cards on the open market is $Who.Cares. I think it would cost me more to buy food to replace the energy of my fingers clicking the keys to sell them than I would make.
But for the sake of accuracy, here is what the Splinterlands market says:
Deeplurker = $.18
Scavo Hireling = $.02
Lava Spider = $.02
Venari Scout = $.02
TOTAL (so far) = $0.24
If you are keeping track, $0.24 is quite a little bit less than the cost of the pack.
Why do I fall for this "hope" thing?
This Regal Peryton adds $.26 to the value of this pack. Woohoo! I got $0.50 in card value and I only paid $2.00 for it! I will be rich any day now hahaha
I am not happy of course. But maybe I am seeing this wrong? Maybe you think I should be happy about this draw from the deck? If so, please just send me a new Chaos pack and I will gladly send you all 5 of these cards. What a deal for you! :)
This is pretty much like every other pack I have ever gotten in Splinterlands. The bare minimum. Oh well, Splinterlands or Fate do not owe me anything, and at least I had that tiny moment of excitement. I am just an unlucky guy, and that is not Splinterlands fault.
At least I don't think so. Hmmmm...
Hopefully you enjoyed this pack opening. I mean, it is REALLY GREAT NEWS for YOU! With me constantly getting terrible cards, that leaves all the good cards out there waiting for you, right? So you are welcome haha!
Peace!
