Splinterlands: Reviewing My Season & The Reward.

The splinterlands Season ended on Friday night and before it did, I was already anticipating how it'll turn out. Although I'll say I didn't want the season to end and this was because it took me six days to go from Bronze II to Silver III and I spent the remaining days of the season playing daily quests and all.

First, the daily quests in Silver III are way better than what we have in bronze one I used to feel that playing daily quests in bronze I was a waste of time and this is because you lose the primary focus of moving to the next league.

Most players who are frequent in bronze I hate it there and this is because they're already tired of playing there, this might influence their emotions especially with keeping their cool when it comes to selecting the right elements, the right summoner, or even the right strategy that might match the game rules

It takes mental discipline to move from one league to another, sometimes, a person needs only a win to progress to the next league, but in that haste to move to the next league, they make a slight mistake with their strategy and of course, they encounter series of losses, which takes them back to needing 7 or 8 games to get to the league which they only needed just a game to head into.

Another thing is, maintaining like three to four " wins" to help solidify one's stay in a new league. I haven't encountered this. The reason is that in my three experiences of breaking into Silver III I have never had to drop down again to bronze I, the reason is, I pretty much go into a run of 6 or 7 wins, whenever I'm entering a new league.

Another reason is, that it takes strategy and luck to win in the bronze leagues, but it takes a formidable deck to do so in the Silver leagues.

Don't get me wrong, you'll need a good strategy as well, but the frequency of high MANA in the Silver league is more, meaning that those with a great deck might just turn up and tear other players apart, however, one will still need good strategies to still line up their cards, else, it'll just be a deck with depth but no effect.

Nevertheless, It becomes difficult especially when you have to consider two-game rules, but some people will take this rather than being in the bronze leagues.

Back to what I was saying, daily quests in the bronze leagues are just a waste of time, I majorly don't play it unless I get into Silver III, the season's reward there is more exciting and prospectful even if it's still on the low in the standards of players who gets like X7 LOOT for daily quests.


The Task For Daily Quest

Back to my season, I think it was 15 days long season now? Can't seem to remember, but, I got into silver III on the 6th day and I made sure to play for extra two days to solidify my position in the Silver III before beginning to play daily quests the reason why I did this was that playing daily quests can be tricky.

Sometimes when you're not lucky you'll be playing your less favorite elements, monsters, and still having to follow the game rules. Let's be factual, everyone has their favorite element, some people have close to 3 favorite elements, but it's very difficult to get a player who has successfully mastered all the elements and still finds them enjoyable to play.

Even if this were true, people have favorite elements and favorite lineups, it's easy to predict the lineup of some elements as mastered by most of their players. For example, playing Element; LIFE, in high MANA games, people turn up with speedy range monsters, using a summoner that +1 the range attack.

In low MANA games, they go for a mother KHALA, adding +1 health to their monsters. So when you have solidified your position, it becomes easy to lose without being scared of dropping points.

Season's Reward

So for my season's reward, the most exciting thing was getting a pack. I mean for all I know, I might pull a legendary off that pack, not that I will, but having a pack means it's not impossible. I would say the renaming rewards are insignificant, but getting a pack is the highlight of it all.

I was anticipating getting that last season, instead, I got a DJINN CWHALA. (which is a very good card in my opinion). So here, guys. The season this time is about 12 days, I'm hoping to quickly get in there again.

You crack me up when you write about Splinterlands in relation to the battles.
I think it is less motivating to complete daily quest in Bronze league it can be distracting to rise up the leagues to Silver if possible.

Loool this is actually very true when you think about it. As per bronze league, I'm back there again hoping I can be able to battle my way back up very soon. You're right, playing daily quests in the bronze leagues is not even worth it.

Landed a pack that in my book is a huge win. I see those going to about $10-$15 at least come Q4 of this year.

I'm glad I landed a pack too, probably the only meaningful loot I got this past week. Yeah, I actually planned to hold on to that one. Thanks for the advice.

Splinterlands is more than a game. You elaborating reminded me of how painful it is, being shot of a point to get into the next level then getting a proper beating 7 games straight. Seating up thinking maybe it the seating position because you have lined up your best team only to be whiped. After tiring and declaring this is my last fight if I loose only to meet the dreaded yodin zaku summoning a class splinter to mess up your whole day. That you shiver every time you see your key chain app on the phone

To be playing the Yodin, I guess you're in upper leagues hahaha, I don't think I'd want to meet a squad with Yodin. Nonetheless, I think it's one of those excitements.

Not at all. I start my season in bronze one and that's what's shocking I met yodin twice half way into silver 3. And I start my alt account in bronze 2 and I still doing the 5 steps forward 10 steps back, things are rough despite it being a short season

As for league dropping, I think it happens and I think it depends on luck. I do think that the hardest part is the few matches before entering the next league because you tend to get matched with some annoying opponents.

That is a great season reward because you got a pack. It's worth $4 from the shop but maybe $2-3 from Hive Engine.

Few matches before the next leagues are always the toughest because those people will make your strategy useless and most times I learnt different strategies from those players.

Whatever works is the best. I wouldn't worry about the rest and it takes time to figure out what type of team you prefer.

Yea but I find tournaments the best place to learn. Everyone is limited to certain restrictions so you get to learn what teams may work.

Yeah $4 isn't bad, but I'll definitely be holding on to that one. It's my third time getting the silver III rewards so I totally anticipated getting a pack and it came in the third attempt actually. I'm totally happy for that one.
