Getting Ready For Riftwatchers
I think @bulldog1205 said it best in a recent video...
"When Splinterlands releases a new deck, it feels like Christmas!"
And we're about a day away from the 'pre-sale' of Riftwatchers...A mini-deck add on for Chaos Legion. Similar to what DICE was for Untamed and I'm excited!
First of all, the new cards they have revealed on top of the new summoners have people pretty excited but what's really got my attention is that promo card you get for taking part in the pre-sale.

Oshuuuuuuuuuur I want a bunch of these!
If you remember Dr. Blight was the promo card for Chaos Legion and it's just become one of the best cards in the game. The only regret I have is that I didn't get enough copies for a maxed Dr. Blight...So I'm trying to move around some crypto to prepare to snag as many copies of this promo card as I can.
Look at these maxed abilities....
Tank heal!
Resurrect!
Reflection shield!
My goodness...And it's a magic card to add to it. I'm not sure it'll have the impact as something like Dr. Blight but I still want a bunch of these so...
I started a power down last week of SPS so I could have some liquid to at least grab 100 packs to guarantee 2 copies of the card. Hopefully the powers that be shine on my deck and net me extra copies and maybe even a gold foil version but regardless, I feel like I can't miss out on this card!
But wait...The FOMO isn't done there lol
One of the projects we've built over the past few years has been the Index Token - You can check out more info about it here!
And it holds a lot of SPS thanks to the DEC the fund has been buying up over the past year and a half. And we've been thinking that the INDEX should purchase one of those snazzy little nodes that Splinterlands is selling.
The reason?
Stack more SPS, to pay out in dividends to the token holders but also to help spread the decentralization of the game out a little bit more. But yeah, let's be honest....lol It's all about stacking SPS as much as we all can over the next few years.
What about you?
Are you planning on going in on Riftwatchers?
Or how about the nodes?
Overall.....Are you as excited as I am for this game lolol
Hey Jon, didn’t realize until you said it that the card on this picture IS the special promo card of Riftwatchers! Wow, indeed it looks very powerful.
Will definitely buy into the series with at least 30 Booster Packs. And as yourself I am hoping to get some of the Airdrops.
Good Luck for the presale and the opening later on. 🤞🏻
Thanks very much!
Yeah I hope people got in on the pre sale. THat was quick lol

The first 500k packs sold out within two minutes. 😜💥
Amazing! How many packs did you get so far?
With the prices of the their packs, its just too expensive :)
Best thing though, the SPS was all earned from what people did in the game.

Thats at least amazing!
I think the card will be a good addition to my deck. It is in the Dragon splinter so can't be used in all battles. I hope it gets 2 of the three abilities at Silver level to get resurrect.

Resurrect apparently is the first ability with a level 1 card.

Great a double resurrect posibility in several splinters matched with Dragon.
Looking forward to the release too.
Also saw you had an podcast with theycallmedan. Sweet stuff man.

My understanding is that you still have to run a node for the license to get you anything, right? All the license does is get the node operators (who don't get enough validator votes to validate any of the blocks) some SPS from the monthly distribution.
I think they said 375k/mo SPS goes to the top 50? 100? node operators who are actually doing all the validating since they have the most votes from SPS stakers. The other 4000-5000 License owners who also operate a node get to split 3,375,000 SPS/month equally.
I'm not saying it's not worth doing. On the contrary, if and when the SPS price starts climbing back to $1 or more, it would be very lucrative. I'm just pointing out that buying a license isn't the only step involved. You still have to operate a node as well.
I could be misunderstanding the language but I'm pretty sure that's how it works.
As for the RW pre-sale, I definitely plan to get some. Hopefully it's not some crazy free-for-all and there's at least a couple hours to get in before it sells out. That promo card looks Sweet!

Yeah if SPS goes up, it's a huge profit center. Apparently it's about 75% APR or something...But of course, the ones with the most nodes will always come out on top lol

I also have been saving up for the Riftwatchers packs and plan to get enough for the promo card. I think the validator would be a good thing for the INDEX fund to get. there is a possibility that holders of SPL validator licenses might get the new GLS validator as an airdrop. This would really help the INDEX holdings if that happened and INDEX was holding one. Take care.

Yeah we really need to figure it out and grab one soon...They are selling out of tranche 1 lolol
Posted using Splintertalk
by the way they are selling, this tranche will be sold before end of day or tomorrow at latest.
I think this card is really overpowered but I don't think I will participate in this right now. I also don't think I will bother with the nodes because I am not sure if it's profitable outside of the top nodes.

75% APR seems pretty profitable.

Did you catch the presale? Crazy how quickly this ended!
Got 100 packs with the 10 bonus. Lucky lol

Congrats! I hope you made it in the presale to get the promo card.
I am super excited for the pre-sale!
