RE: How Can I Most Efficiently Earn Vouchers Without Breaking The Bank? Growing Pains & New Cards Bought

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

You're right dude! The presale voucher system isn't fair to you... you've pretty much come along at the exact wrong time and it doesn't help you at all. I don't know how true this is, but apparently there are guilds waiting to get into Splinterlands in a big way and are intending to buy up millions of packs for their guidies... in this case, the voucher is fair for me because it means I'll get an opportunity to buy packs for $4 before they're all snapped up. All the devout would be so mad if 14 million packs were bought on the first day (which is entirely possible, it happens with bots buying Nike sneakers every day) and then we'd have no chance at the promo card and be forced to purchase packs at market prices.

I know I won't convince you that it's a good idea or that it's fair for you. It isn't... but I appreciate the system personally.

If you're out for pure airdrop points then DEC is absolutely your best bet. I've barely spent any DEC since the airdrop started... but remember that DEC is inflationary, more is printed every day, so while it's good for airdrop points... if you spent $10K on DEC today, there's a good chance it's only worth $9k in a month.

(Personally I'm a little worried that DEC will tank hard immediately after the airdrop finishes, I might spend all mine a week beforehand.)

The other comments in this thread are excellent... you've got a good supportive crew here! Also, you have Djinn Oshannus! I don't have this card yet but I want it so bad.

Unless I poured $ in at this point, we're too close to the release for me to accumulate any vouchers. At most, maybe I'd get 1 or 2, but it doesn't feel worth the taxable event to swap for the voucher goose chase at my level. Even if I got a few packs to be eligible for airdropped cards, my chances would be slim at best. Might as well buy the cards directly if something is that amazing. I guess my only solace is slowly building up SPS and DEC through gameplay and liquid payouts from posts. Congrats on being an early adopter in this stuff where there's no strain on anything, just enjoying the ride. Also nice job on your Koinos. I wanted to grab some again and again, but just a few hundred bucks to be part of it...but the ETH fees on Uniswap were always too much to box me out.

Yeah, unfortunately the timing isn't great for CL vouchers for you... but they've already started working on the next editions (Riftwatchers and Rebellion) so hopefully you'll be well placed for those ones.

Oh thanks! Those goddamn ETH fees are just ridiculous... which ironically is the main problem Koinos attempts to solve. Hopefully once they release mainnet you'll be able to grab some feeless Koin.
