As the next season ends in Splinterlands, I want to give an update about how my account is doing and what rewards I managed to get. Furthermore, I will talk about the progress during this season and what my plans are for the upcoming weeks and the Chaos Legion Release. All in all, I must say that my third season in Splinterlands had again its ups and downs but more on that in the article!

Season 3 Progress & Season Rewards

My Season started of very slowly. At the beginning of the season, I still had the 1000 CP that were delegated to me and a couple CP from my reward cards. I managed to promote myself pretty quickly into Bronze 2 so that I could earn some DEC battle rewards. I find this very important because without these rewards people can lose motivation rather quickly. I started grinding every day and accumulating some nice amount of DEC. By the end of the season, I managed to have around 220 DEC, which is not much by any means but for just the third season I think this is a amount that is respectable.

During this season my highest amount of rating points was around 1200 so I would have qualified for Silver 3, which would have given me more reward chests by the end of the season. Unfortunately, I was not able to rent any cards which made me stay in Bronze 3 territory. Along side the rewards which I will talk about a little later I managed to pick up two epic reward cards from by daily Quests which kept my motivation very high! It also gave me more opportunities to play different strategies. One of my favorite ones was to play Djinn Chawala because of her Thorns ability. Along side with the Lava Launcher this was a win in the majority of the battles. Furthermore, I discovered some counter strategies against Water & Magic which I think is very important in the early Bronze Leagues because a lot of people are playing this combo.

Like I mentioned before, I finished this season again in Bronze 2. I was very looking forward towards the rewards because of my good luck during the season. I was somehow hoping for a legendary. Looking back, very foolish from me because the disappointment was big! After revealing the first chest, I was very happy about the reward card. Even though I already have this card this means that my CP can grow and I could make progress towards the next League. But after this it all went downhill. Unfortunately, I got two Legendary Potions and a total of 25 credits. While this is a disappointing result I should not cry too much about it because the one reward card is better than none and I hope to use the Potions to open some Chaos Legion Packs.

Plan For Upcoming Weeks and Goals

Speaking of the Chaos Legion Packs. These are supposed to arrive on the 8th of December. I am very looking forward to it. In my opinion Phase 2 of the Pack distribution will be done very quickly and Phase 3 will arrive within few hours. In this Phase 3 the Packs will cost only 4$ worth of Credits, DEC or SPS and players are not required to own any Vouchers. Because I am a relatively new player and my SPS Airdrop is not that high, I was not able to obtain any vouchers. This means that I have to rely on Phase 3. Currently I am hoping to get 200$ worth of packs, that would mean 50 packs. Depending on how the sale will go I might stock up a bit but generally speaking investing 200$ should be alright. For the packs I am planning to open at least 10, maybe 15 for myself and use up all of the potions that I was able to accumulate. In this pack opening I am hoping to get enough CP to comfortably stay in Bronze 2. For the rest of the packs I am planning to hold them for a bit so that I can sell them once the demand for packs rises more. I think this is a very common strategy and we will see what It does to the pack value.

I am planning to rent out every card that I do not need and that will not put me under 1000 CP. This way I am hoping to generate some additional DEC to purchase a few more cards. With this strategy I am planning to work myself up to 5000 CP. When I arrive at this stage, I will do the same but with 5000 CP as the ground. In my opinion this is a slow but steady strategy which involves playing the game and involving myself into the community. I think that this is the way the developers meant the game to be played. If you have some better strategies, please let me know in the comments because I am really open for any advice!

Conclusion

To summarize my article, I can say that I am really enjoying playing this game. While my win rate is now slightly above 50 % I find myself learning more and more about this amazing game. I really hope that it stays that way and that I will be able to achieve my goals as quickly as possible. While I can see the earning potential in this game, I currently just try to enjoy the feeling that I get discovering new strategies and ways of playing this game. Like I mentioned before, I am really happy to read about any tips or strategies from you guys!
