part of that entertainment is in the chance of increasing values.
Sure the economic side of things are fun. I love finding value in the Splinterlands market. But for me, the biggest draw is still the strategy and competition of each individual battle.
I've also really grown fond of collecting the cards. Against my better judgment, I continue to set aside money each month to buy credits, swap for packs, and slowly burn through the outrageous number of potions on my account.
Likely, this isn't the best way to grow my collection. Like you said, I could instead focus those credits to just buy GFL and GFE from the market to use for battles and stake to my wagons to increase my future airdrops. But there is something intoxicating about cracking packs and the promise of "winning the lottery" by opening a $150 GFL from a $4 pack. This is the ultimate win. Lucky for me, I finally caught some luck and opened two GFL from 55 packs yesterday. Time to buy a new wagon!
I like cracking packs too - but I rarely do so these days.
It is frustrating me of late ( a year or more) because even when I outplay people, I tend to still lose due to "luck" - it is almost impossible to get those streaks going that feel so good.
You had a great number of packs to start out. I still haven't bought that many!
Wins streaks are always hard to come by. Do you find that the opponents are easier at certain times of the day?
