Splinterlands: The Last Day Syndrome

png_20231130_090759_0000.png



Everyone knows that the last few hours to the end of the Splinterlands' season are always feisty, and some opponents are renting extra summoners on the last day to win some demanding games. I started the season very slow because of my hospital sessions and time off, but I finally decided to stop playing immediately after I got into Gold Two.

However, I had some extra energy to play with, and I decided to give it a shot, I lost four games in five.

Competing on this last day gives you this indecision.

Sometimes you're on a very good streak and you get greedy and want to get some extra chest and then you begin to lose and compromise on your initial standing. I was trying not to make this mistake, but unfortunately I did. I was on a 3 game winning streak, and already standing strong in Gold 2, but then I went on a four-game loss and almost compromised that.

So instead of continuing to play, I decided to cut it short because I might just end up falling back to gold three and never have enough energy to climb back. It was a hectic season, and I'm going to compare how well I did when I finally opened the reward, but the positive here is finishing in gold 2.

Sometimes one goes on a winning streak, gets too confident, and then loses about four to five games consecutively and compromises on their initial plans It's one thing that's mostly common on the last day of the season.

Yesterday, I got an interesting focus reward and it was filled with summoners.

One of the most confusing things is getting gold foil summoners, but never needing them because your ordinary foil has more level. That said, anything gold is rare and can become very useful later on, but I got this rare life summoner Franz Ruffman, a level 2 and ordinary foil in the same reward chest, and for one bizarre reason, I wished the gold foil could be maybe 4 copies of ordinary foil, to continue building my Franz Ruffman to level 5.

Summoners are everything

.....and sometimes we cannot dictate how often or how coordinated we get them. 80% of my soulbound summoners are now in level 4 and I'm beginning the quest to get them in level 5 because most of my soulbound cards are already in level 5, 6 and even 7, and the only way to unlock their level abilities is to increase the level of the summoners as well.

SPS is doing well in price, and I'm grateful for the delegations I have to continually compete with.

I rented out my level one River Herondale.

In fact it's been on the rental market for over 6 months now and bringing in DEC. This is the only card I can currently rent out as every other card I have is in use. 100 so far after about 5 to 6 weeks of renting it out, small, but I might still be able to use it to rent some DEC after some time of accumulating it. So, I'll talk about the full season when the reward is finally out, in 6 hours' time.

I agree. I prefer to ignore the fact that it is the last day. I stick to my reutine.

It's always hard to play according to routine especially when you think you can earn more chest. I commend you

Overconfidence can kill you in Splinterlands! I know the feeling! You're doing great! Keep leveling up those soul bound summoners, I'm finding them useful in high mana matches in gold.

I'm hoping for some good chests here since the season just ended!

Well... I just opened up mine and I didn't get summoners, legendaries or even some decent epic cards or any packs. Looks like I'll be looking forward to next season.
I played that overconfidence game early today and I lost a lot

Just opened mine, got a single copy Franz in gold and 3 in regular, and 7 Lobb's! Not too bad! It was fifty diamond chests though. I'm sorry to hear you had a bad EOS, I usually get horrible EOS's. For two years I never got one single gold legendary, and a month ago I finally got one!

Fifty diamond chest, oh. There has to be more in there as well. Congratulations to you. I think mine is a bit disappointing but I'm going to do a post.

I got about 190 SPS as well and merits, but card wise it was mostly common cards. Nothing truly special...

I always try to advance to diamond at EOS just for rewards, but I don't like playing there because I end up having to rent way to many cards. It's just not worth it!

Renting is generally not worth it these days. I don't know if they will incorporate rebellion packs into the rewards once it's officially launched. I feel the rewards are poor with the packs

I'm not sure either, Chaos packs became so cheap they weren't great rewards. The game really needs to attract new players...

Just like last time when the season is going on people work hard so that their rank goes up but here some people have to suffer as well they lose more games in the cycle of winning more.

Good job. I didn't have any power last night so I ended my journey in Gold I during the previous season. Good luck on your rewards. Mines weren't so great this time around.

Mine weren't great either, but ending up in gold one means you have to start battling from Gold one. This is quite tricky, but I'll like to see how it turns out for you
