Splinterlands: Where There's A Way, There's A "WILD"

in #hive-167922last year

It's about 3 days to the end of the splinterlands' season and thankful, the SPS delegation I've gotten from two people here has helped me accumulate 45 silver chests.

However, I do not really want to earn silver chests anymore, (not that I have a choice, but maybe I can try) There's no depth to the contents of these chests, and for someone who is looking to build the level of soulbound summoners, I really need gold chests to stand better chances of building my summoners.

This isn't to say silver chests are not good enough, failing to qualify and play in the gold league is one of the reasons why I stopped playing in the modern format of the game. I'll have to say that the sweet SPS returns in the modern format cannot compensate for the enormous loss of ECR, the endless losing streak, and the fewer number of chests.

To be very honest I'm not looking at the returns or money at the moment. I like to establish a winning position where my odds of winning will increase over time.
This includes having high-level summoners whether soulbound or normal summoners.

I'm not in a rush

I started investing on Splinterlands assets at the peak of the 2021 bull season, I already knew that I wasn't going to get any reasonable return or dividends because I was investing in assets at their peak rather than doing it the other way around.

However, I was fascinated by Splinterlands from when I decided to join, and irrespective of the mind-bending changes that have happened, I think the challenges of the game haven't stopped me from playing, unlike so many players I know who have stopped playing.

It's understandable, when you invest time and money, you'll expect the appropriate dividends. However, it doesn't work always with crypto-related projects.

For me, splinterlands is a 4 to 5 years project (God willing) I don't intend to take any profit for 4 to 5 years, if possible and if the game keeps going, I intend to continue building my deck for the next 2 to 3 years and only take maximum profit in the next 6 years. This is purely hypothetical because I don't see know what will happen in this timeframe, but I'm hoping for the best.

This doesn't mean I haven't flipped any reward, (it's totally normal to do so) but the main thing for me is to build my Splinterlands assets and this is the main thing I want to do.

It's appealing to earn the SPS returns in modern, it'll add to the numbers, especially because SPS requirement for maximum rewards creates more in-game value for SPS (This isn't really reflecting on the price) . So for players with already established decks, playing in modern makes more sense, because having more money for investment is always the goal for anyone who has vested skin in the game.

The kind of daily focus reward I want


So, moving back to modern has been the best decision I've made this season.

From bronze 3, I'm currently in gold 3, although I've gotten some losing streak along the way, but the environment is quite different in modern, and I'm beginning to earn gold chests again.

I'm hoping to stay in Gold 3 till the end of the season, especially if everything turns out well. Some days ago, I got some decent daily focus rewards. I know they're mostly soulbound, but getting 8 daily chest rewards in modern is something I've never been able to do in the past 6 weeks.

The advantages outweigh the disadvantages

......hopefully, in the space of two years, I can come back to compete in modern (if the system hasn't changed, which I feel it might) .

Buying more SPS would be the goal. This is actually the best time to do so, but the circumstances are not favorable (SPS hasn't been doing too good and I don't know why) , but buying more SPS, owning some integral cards and summoners is something I'd really want to do. Till then, I feel that moving back to WILD has been a good decision thus far.

Awesome to see your season has turned out great performance-wise, no doubt the Wild format gives less headache compared to the Modern format. I can say the same for myself as I have gotten in the Gold League of the Wild format for about 3 days now.

Hopefully, the rewards put a wide smile on our faces at the end of the season.

I'm glad I'm putting my ECR to good use in the wild format of the game, I was beginning to get worried on how things were panning out for me in modern, and I'd rather choose this over huge SPS in modern.
Hopefully, this season will turn out quite well in terms of the rewards.

Plenty good words there Jose, its tough to get something that will really make us happy, but i hope its a good season for ya. I have similar amount of chests. I hope you get to a good spot, and lets see what the season brings us. Keep rockin.

I have never calculated the exact amount of money that I invested in Splinterlands, but I suppose that I didn't get my investment back... Mostly, by my fault as I did have moments when I was able to take some profits, but I didn't... I remember the time when my owned card value was over 40K USD, and today, it's around 6K...

On the other side, I have used my "token trading skills" and speculated a bit with packs and took some profits there... Currently, I'm more focused on accumulating tokens (staking and adding liquidity to SL pools), than on buying cards in the game... But, I agree with you that maybe now is a good moment to build up your cards as card prices are ridiculously low...

I also didn't get my investment back, and I mostly cannot remember the amount of money I put in. However all I remember was that I was investing in cards when level one Djinn Oshannus was $39.

As for you. 40k is a ridiculous amount of money and if you had liquidated your assets back then and bought back at this prices, you'd probably be one of the biggest stakeholders in the game.

But I think a lot of us have learned one or two things about last bull run for splinterlands, and are hopefully going to do better in the next run I guess.

You're making the right moves, I just wish I had the cash to buy the cards I want.

That's for sure! And not just with Splinterlands, but also with all other assets too... Regarding Splinterlands, specifically, I think that I would do almost the same thing again... lol... But, maybe would "re-arrange" my cards earlier... That's something that I have done later than I should have... To sell cards that I don't use and buy those that I need...

Btw, I didn't buy those 40K and I have invested much less money, but I did invest a lot of time, for sure...

Yeah, they went up. For me, I think I'll do the same as you, sell off cards I might not be using to buy the ones I actually need. For me, I'll do a lot of things differently, like not buying any assets at the peak of their price and try to take profit when it mattered the most though.

Nice job. Modern has gotten a lot harder and I am losing more than last season. I think last season might have been just me getting lucky and I will be advancing to gold in a few days before the season ends.

That's great, I think I have advanced to Gold in wild too early. I think advancing to Gold in the modern format is a big deal. I try it 3 times and I failed woefully with it.

Honestly, you are doing very well on Splinterlands and that's great. All those cards I'm seeing is just money money money...lol

I think that's the right decision for the long run too... earning chests now instead of more SPS but less chests in Modern. get to level up some nice cards although they're Soulbound.

SPS prices will be tough to raise without an influx of new investors. If the only use case of SPS is to earn more SPS, then it will most likely be devalued with high inflation.

You're right about SPS. I thought the SPS requirement would take things up a bit, but I forgot the inflation of SPS and how we still need a mechanism to curtail the inflation as well. Something different entirely If you ask me.
