# I need more Glint! - Splinter Stats Ranked Rewards Season 90 Report Card
@aussieninja
Hi everyone!
I am currently very busy trying to figure out new synergies with the Escalation cards, and there is a lot to like here. I really like this set.
I am absolutely loving figuring out new combos with the Kindred Will and Kindred Spirit cards, and I've had some really fun wins during my learning curve...

I've also really enjoyed finding opportunities (like the Opportunity ruleset) to put Empusan Darkguard in the last place position...

Determined is a great ability for the whole team to get...

... especially when Commander Slade is in the first position. I've lost so many battles because I just can't land enough hits.

Since I use Heloise the Hollow in way too many games...

... it's really nice to have a few more cards with the Invigorate ability which prevents your cards from getting Exhausted. This ability has already saved me a few times I reckon.

I've managed to sell something like 400,000 DEC worth of spare Escalation cards, this is all I've got left to sell..

I'm sitting on half a million DEC at the moment, and I'm still not 100% what I'll spend it on, I think it'll depend on where on the leaderboard I'm sitting when Escalation conflicts are released...

... or buying resources for the craftable land cards...
It's hard to see, but both Stone and Iron have shot up in price now that two new craftable cards will be available at the end of March...


I love that these exist, but the bad news is, I'm so focused on Mage Repair Kits for Conflicts, that not only will I not participate in getting these cards, but the upshoot of these resource prices affects my ability to craft the Wagon Kits.
I did manage to sell another 4 Unbinding Scroll (CA) (Legendary) with my surplus Aura, but (and this is a great but) I actually got 11 Hanv summoner cards, which means I was able to max it out with any purchases... but it also means I have to repair 11 wagons when I was expecting to repair 8.


One thing that also worries me is this...
If Escalation Conflicts happens after Conclave Arcana Conflicts (which I don't think it will because that's about 2 months away) then I could maybe make do... but if they happen concurrently then I'm not going to have enough wagons fixed...

I currently have 37 wagons broken, but I don't know how much I need. Repairing wagons is the same cost as making new ones, so it doesn't make financial sense to hold onto any I'm not using - but I potentially only need 8 wagons for Escalation - I have 38 Escalation cards (power 145,215) but I might need more if I don't have enough power to get maxed versions of the conflict cards. It doesn't look like the Promo cards will be allowed to be included (since I currently have them on my Conclave Arcana wagons, but I could be wrong here).
As far as I can tell, there isn't currently any information on how many Escalation Conflicts there will be, nor how much power you need for guaranteed cards... however there are extra prizes based on where you are on the leaderboard, which is likely to drive up player investment in these cards:

Considering I was 56th on the Escalation Leaderboard and have sold all my gold foil cards, I am not making into the Top 10 leaderboard.
I might be able to sell some Sparkle Potions (100 Aura) to the whales when they're available though...

Extremely happy and surprised to maintain a Diamond League Top 10 spot after the whistle blew...

Champs III legitimately feels tough going, but having some new cards that the bots hadn't coded into their routines yet really helped.

Glint season rewards will show in the season they are claimed.
Despite my big 200K Glint win, I want to focus on the Legendary cards (I've got 2 of 12 maxed out) and you need 700K Glint to purchase all of Batch 1, so I'll have to do it next season. I need 41 total BCX of Reward Legendary cards, and you get 10 per batch per season, so I've got another 2 or 3 months to go before I can refocus on the Epic cards.

When I concentrate on the Wild format, I really do only make a quarter (1/4th) of the Ranked Rewards that I make in the Modern format - I assume that means there are 4X as many games going on...?
You can really see it in the table below, I've been flipping between Modern and Wild for the last 10 seasons or so, and you can see the odd number seasons collecting way more SPS than the even number seasons.
This is my history of SPS collection...

Hope you're still excited by the game, I've been having a lot of fun with Escalation, and I hope it's shaken the game up for you even if you didn't get any.
Thanks for reading!

Those are really nice numbers! Escalation looks like a ton of fun, but I already made peace with the fact that it's very unlikely I'll be competitive again, given the maintenance of current leagues absence and the needed investment. I'll try and focus on individual cards that will have good sinergies in wild as well, and light a candle to one day we'll be able to have a humand wild league as it should always have been. Good luck in the current league! ;) !BBH
I totally hear you... I think I'm at my financial limit with Splinterlands so I won't be able to buy whatever edition is next and will lose the ability to be competitive... and then I will also light a candle to join you in the 'natural' wild league (no steroids) where hopefully I'll beat you 51% of the time we meet, haha.
Thank you, current Modern league is going really well... once I hit my 100 games to qualify to the leaderboard I should be in the Top 10, but we'll see if I can stay there.
Good luck with that leaderboard! I guess more and more I'll focus on collecting cards and land, for a passive strategy... and hoping that will change and we can meet on the battlefield again. 😉
