The Simple Joys That Splinterlands Brings...

Let me share with you more of my journey on Splinterlands!

But first, a public service announcement....As we will be welcoming @nealmcspadden to the CryptoManiacs podcast tomorrow at 1pm eastern for an in-depth look into the economy of the game and everything that has been going on with #splinterlands !

You can check out the show via Vimm here on chain, my Twitter account or on the YouTube channel that we stream live on!

Back to the Splinterlands journey....

Ever since Focus Points came into the mix, I've fallen in love with doing the 'daily challenge'.

Recently though, over the past few seasons it seemed to get extra hard to compete and putting in the time and effort to actually get any decent rewards, seemed like a roll of the dice.

That's the nature of the beast though....

Sometimes you end up with potions as a reward. And other times you end up with what I snagged from my 7 rewards chests this morning!

I have been sailing through this season, and should finish with a decent amount of rewards while staying in the Diamond leagues. This seems to be my comfort zone and where I can get the best rewards and wins as well.

I should get around 40-45 reward chests when this season is done, and it's a nice bump from last season too. I'm pretty happy with that.

However overall, my season's daily rewards have been...Meh!

I do admit, I absolutely LOVE getting SPS in my rewards....I am o.k. with getting potions...But I can't stand merits LOL

And as for rewards cards...It's been lukewarm at best until yesterday and today!

Screenshots from SplinterShare!

Yesterday I got myself a nice little Legendary card in the form of Jared Scar!

I've slowly been getting him into my line ups and he's a decent tank with decent mana. He fits in really good with some of my Life teams.

But then today happened...

121 SPS!

And a Chaos Legion pack!

I get these packs every now and again, and really never get anything of huge value when I open them up. However today was a nice little treat!

A gold Cruel Sethropod and...

Grandmaster Rathe!

Love it :)

And here's the lesson for @splinterlands players...Keep 'showing up'. These focus rewards can SUCK at times and I get it. We work out butts off, for sometimes next to nothing in rewards. But remember, this is random! And the more you show up, the 'luckier' you will get!

I'm now working on getting my Grandmaster maxed out and will stash those extra SPS I'm getting into my stake obviously...Which in turn, put more SPS into my pocket every single day.

It's crazy....Getting rewarded every single day for playing a game I absolutely love!

Yeah I got him to Level 3 right now, working on that max level 4!

Everyone gets 20 CTP tips. The tiering of how much they are worth, depends on your CTP stake, with minimum stake of 100 !CTP

Congratulations @jongolson! really nice rewards!
I am playing Gold league first time ever since I joined last fall. Was only possible since I played almost every season and stacked up my rewards. That way you learn how the game works and which cards to use when.

Looking forward to the „Splinterlands Episode“! 👏🏻

Keep up the great work. Regards from Germany

And the more you show up, the 'luckier' you will get!

It's math. You make your own luck through consistent efforts. During the bear market, there are fewer people playing. Which means more rewards for everyone who is playing. xD

Good luck Jon, you are doing great. 121 SPS was $121 not a long time ago. 😯

100% agree! Less people playing, more rewards for the rest of us lol

Yeah and it gets staked, so that turns into more SPS and hopefully it just grows and grows!

How about that luck man. Days like these keep you going. Also I honestly think potions and merits are Splinterlands version of the age old chicken and the egg question. Except I ask which is worse as opposed to which came first!😂

Congrats on the nice hauls. Looks like it pays to be in the higher levels.
I did get a pack yesterday in Gold so I was very happy.

oh snap win win! Those diamond chests seem to be paying off well. I'm trying to get there myself right now legit like 100 rank points away and I haven't been able to push out of Gold1 yet this season. I'm hoping today! Awesome drops and pick ups. That legendary of $100 always seems to come in when you're just about to giveup on the game it feels like lol

Awesome man! These are some great rewards all at once. But those are the great moments in Splinterlands. If we would get them in every loot chest and booster chest, would we appreciate them as much? I bet we wouldn't. It would be a regular day.
