Breaking away from my routine of posting about Rising Star Game , today I'm going to talk about Splinterlands and my progress in the game.
In my last post about Splinterlands I talked about my experiment with the game in which I was renting 90% of all cards at maximum level to try to reach the top 50 on the leaderboard, but I gave up because I made some mistakes and believed I wouldn't be able to reach any of those positions. Since the cost was too high, I just rented the cards I always rent in every season and my rating went down a lot.
I'm in the Champion 3 league with a 3960 rating and in position 308 on the leaderboard. For those who didn't follow my experiment, you can read more about it in the post: Opening 480 Chests and My Strategy for Champion League
To be honest, it was only 1. My mistake was buying energy and opening chests at the beginning of the season, which gave me a lot of energy to play. However, at the beginning of the season, battles are very competitive, so my win rate was low. I had to spend 400 energy to reach Champion 1, and if I wanted to get into the top 50, I would need at least a 5000 rating. The season was almost over, and I didn't have much energy left to fight. Since I didn't want to spend another 17,000 DEC to try to reach the top 50, I gave up and decided to try another season. I'll wait until it's close to the end to use all the extra energy. For now, I'm just accumulating Glint so I can open as many chests as possible when I do this experiment again.
One disadvantage I noticed when playing in the Champion 1 league and trying to reach the top 50 was that I have a big disadvantage in some battles because of the gladiator cards since mine are at a low level and the players who are in the highest positions already have them at the maximum level or very close to that level, so I need to increase the level of mine as quickly as possible and I will open 25 Gladius Cases.
To increase my chances of getting legendary cards I will use the Blood Stone, it will double my chances of getting a legendary card.
25 Gladius Cases + 125 Blood Stones cost me a total of 57,000 merits, luckily I got a lot of merits by opening the chests so this experiment was not a total waste since I learned a valuable lesson and also managed to recover a good part of my investment since I was gaining a lot of SPS in the battles.
It seems like it's worth using Blood Stones because with just 25 Gladius Cases I got 4 legendary cards and luckily they were great cards that I didn't have yet.
It will probably take me a few seasons to repeat my experiment because I want to increase the levels of my gladiator cards just in case, and I also want to accumulate more Glint to get as much energy as possible. As soon as I decide to do it again, I'll make a post to show whether or not it's worth spending so much on renting a bunch of cards at the maximum level.
I also decided to increase my position with LEO Tokens, I recently saw a big increase in their price and I'm going to take advantage of the fact that the value has decreased a bit and increase my position by staking another 500 LEO.
I managed to buy it for 100 Swap.Hive and I believe that was a great value.
Now my stake is 1010 LEO, I hope the value doesn't go up too quickly because I still plan to buy more by the end of the year.
