Hello, the beautiful people of Splinterverse. Hope you all are doing great and enjoying the game every day. I hope you all are enjoying the game every day. The surging price of SPS is a sign that indicates the bright future of the game. The Land Expansion 1.5 has changed the crashing card market into a booming marketplace which is just the beginning of a new era in Splinterlands. I am sure in the future the game will be more player-oriented. Players will be able to earn more assets from their lands in addition to the existing tasks such as completing in-game quests, participating in tournaments, or buying and selling many items on marketplaces. These assets can then be traded for real money or used in Splinterlands gameplay.

Today I am going to share my journey to Splinterlands from the year 21 in brief with my mistakes, suggestions, achievements, and future goals in the coming years. I hope it will help you to start your journey with such a great game with a great community. August 2021 is when my journey with Splinterlands began. To play the game, I made an account, purchased the Spellbook in July, and began purchasing some basic cards in August. After being delighted to discover the powers, game rules, and other details, I purchased several cards. It was not easy at that time to buy many cards as the price was much higher than now. I have lost around 99% of the value that I spent that time with the current value. So, being more insightful with a clear view of the future trends is important here.

Before the release of the new Chaos and Soulbond reward sets, I spent a small sum of money on purchasing quest potions to obtain additional reward cards. However, purchasing quest potions is now gone. I wish to summarise my suggestions for you so that you, especially the new players, might learn from my experiences.

According to my 2 years of experience, I will definitely suggest the following strategies for investing in Splinterlands.

• Never invest all of your money at once, it will be more profitable if you buy your cards in different market conditions, the average buying rate will be lower in some cases. For me, If I bought all the cards initially, then my current state would have decreased a lot more. As an example, I bought a single Djinn Oshannus for $40 that time! And now you just check the price and guess what a devastating loss I made! So, be patient during buying cards and make a bid rather than direct buy. It will take some time but you will find some great deals often.

• Try to use cards market properly such as PEAKMONSTERS, MONSTERMARKET, CARDAUCTION. If you want some more strategies and tips about peakmonsters, you go through the latest updates from their discord groups and read the regular hive blogs on the market and strategies for selecting cards. I have many blogs on them, you can read some of them or follow me, for instance, I can suggest the following blogs on using peak monster properly through the following links

• Never open single packs and any packs without the potions, try to open more packs at once to increase the possibility of more gold foils or legendaries.

• Make sure to use potions before opening packs to increase the possibility of getting gold foil cards or legendaries cards. You can wait for enough potions if you don't want to buy, just play for a several weeks and you can gather massive amount of potions from your daily quests and end of season rewards.

• It is not necessarily true that any project will always go the right way and we need to think about which group is gonna be benefitted more the bigger group or the handful of whales! To maximize your earnings potential, it's important to become an expert in the game you're playing. Learn about the best strategies for earning rewards and winning battles, and stay up-to-date on new updates and changes to the game.

My mistakes

In my initial days I didn’t know about the amazing Splinterlands community in hive blockchain. I didn’t notice about logging in to my hive.blog account, as I bought the Spellbook directly through my Metamask wallet. I didn’t know about learning the best strategies to do well in the battle. I never joined any tournaments, and even now I Can't as I used to be busy with my studies. I had no idea that I could study the best techniques to win the battle. I never participated in any competitions, and I still can't do too much since I used to be preoccupied with my schoolwork. Even I was not unaware that Splinterlands enabled player experiences, fights, and artwork to be shared over the Hive blockchain to reward them for motivation. I have been writing and earning some votes here for the past One and a half years though recently I have been too busy to come here regularly! Even though I'm running late, I'm still receiving some additional rewards** that I can use to purchase more cards and strengthen my deck. Some other mistakes that I can mention as-

• Buying cards directly with the listed price

• Didn't make a proper investment plan

• Buy very expensive cards when it comes for the first time but gradually price has decreased a lot than I can imagine, and that led me up to a 99% loss!

Future plan

The value of my card in Splinterlands has dropped significantly and I am concerned about further losses unless something is fixed. I can still remember I have lost almost 70%-90% of the value of some of my purchased cards! To survive this situation, it is crucial to make a good plan with practical observation and experience. And I am going to implement the following measures-

• Avoiding abrupt decisions is very important and analyzing current holdings, their performance, and the loss you have incurred is important.

• I will review my investment strategy to re-evaluate my plan and adjust myasset portfolio accordingly, and adjust my risk tolerance level if necessary on a regular basis.

• If you decide to buy or sell your holdings to prevent further losses, do it carefully, but don't buy or sell everything at once. Instead, consider buying and selling in periodic manners over several days or weeks to minimize the impact of price volatility.

• Also, I am going to analyze what went wrong to avoid big losses in the future, such as investing too much in one asset without checking its potential or following speculative hype without proper research and market trend analysis.

Conclusion

It is not always the case that projects will go as planned, therefore we must consider all the potential risks. It's crucial to become a master in the game you're playing if you want to optimize your profits. Keep up with the latest game updates and modifications by learning the most effective tactics for winning battles and obtaining prizes. As developing blockchain-based games requires a significant investment in time and resources which can make the game a sustainable one. There is always the risk that a game may not be successful in the long run but I am satisfied with the Splinterlands team in this issue as they are constantly evolving their roadmaps.
