Splinterlands, it's almost Chaos time

avatar


Over just a bit more than a week it will be pack opening time for the Chaos Legion packs on Splinterlands. Splinterlands has by far been proven the most profitable game that I have ever participated in, and besides from that I actually enjou messing around with cards, rentals and other crap.

The pre sale is over, the vouchers have been divided by the amount of SPS given out and the market was booming for people trying to get to round numbers of buying packs, so they would be eligible for the free bonus packs. On the leaderboard you can see that the top accounts have bought more than 20.000 packs in total which are way more investing type of amounts, versus than just regular gaming amounts.

My 117 packs are just the kiddy puppy buy then all of a sudden.....

And of course the biggest question will be after opening them. Will it all have been worth it considering how much I had to pay for these additional vouchers which I wrote about in this post a while back versus how much the HIVE price has risen over the last two weeks.

Let's have a look!





As I stated in the post I wrote I need 2280 additional HIVE to get my packs, which I mostly bought from using my 'free' earned SPS and selling this to HIVE. At this point in time the SPS/HIVE ratio was almost 1 to 1 so getting around 30 HIVE free per day. (with the current price this would be like $65 US dollars literally for free when you would have had them converted at that time).

I also used some DEC sells and Rising Star starbit sells for getting the HIVE cheap at that time. In these weeks the ratios were just very good in purchasing these things and selling these funds to get the HIVE to get the vouchers, but at the same time...

Consedering that this 2280 HIVE for the purchase then is literally more than $5000 US dollars now...that is kind of brutal. And then you have to draw some really good cards in your 117 packs to get this all back over the years.

Luckily I am also still able to get these brawl Guild reward cards which you can not use on the market (for now??), but are just really fun to play with and also give you additional SPS bonus which still is $0.40 per piece on the market and still free cash daily for the next 8 months still.





And this is the thing that keep going in Splinterlands if you ask me. Yes, it is a costly business, but on the other hand, it is still all from free stuff. But when you think about how much rent you would be able to pay from this in stead of buying all of these cards, then there is just this itchy feeling.

Let's see what happens in 8 days and hope for the best. I have a large majority of the potions ready to open the packs which will increase my chance of getting legendaries and Gold Foil cards (does anyone know if this actually works) and we are just given over to the Splinterlands gods to see what the draw will come up with.

Fingers crossed guys!

Good luck with your pulls and your airdrops @karinxxl!

I got just over 50 pre-sale packs in the initial buy. I now have 60 packs and 60 XChaos tokens as well.

Keen on buying more of both as well as some more packs in the phase 2 sale.

Double Vouchers! Yay!

What is the deal with this Xchaos token there then? I saw it popping by but not sure what it actually was doing?

And as I understand from you in the next opening of the packs people will receive double vouchers then? Which means still a voucher is required to purchase a pack then as I understand. Conclusion...the packs will still not be easy to aquire for the general public with no sps staked.

hahah Look at me asking you all of these questions as if you are the splinterlands guru will all of the answers. I will go on the answer hunt myself :)))

First step...opening these packs next week, fiesta!!!

Hahaha! No problem! There should be as much exposure for #spt and #splinterlands as possible! Whatever I learn can be shared and passed on! Hive should be everything. It is blockchain publishing as well as blockchain social media is it not?

So yes. After the 8th of December, we can open new packs and the entire Chaos Legion is launched and available. That's with the first 1 million packs sold.

Phase 2 sales then begin with 2x the amount of Vouchers airdropped to SPS stakeholders. SPS is down in price now, so buy some up! You will never have enough of it! ;)

The true potential of SPS has not been released so while it is easy to come by, play the system.

So back to packs... well 2 million more packs then become available for sale. On the 8th, I suppose we get our first airdrop cards which is Dr. Blight. And then on the 2 million other packs sold, for each 1 million cards sold, milestone reached, we get another airdrop.

After this is General sale of the remaining packs. There is a massive concern that the remainder of the 13 million odd packs sell out within the first day or even hours.

That brings us to XChaos.

XChaos is a TOKEN developed by one of the big buyers that will be giving as many packs to you as the XChoas tokens you hold PLUS the value of the airdrops you would have gotten for having purchased those packs.

PROS: You get packs sorted out ahead of time as part of a bulk sale. So you don't miss out of pack sales. You get the value of the airdrops in DEC into your account. They also send you the value of the SPS airdrops that those packs would have given to your account as well.

CONS: You need to wait till all the airdrops are done before they give you the packs. You don't get the airdrops in cards for these tokens because you will be earning factional parts of a card depending on how much you buy, instead, you get their value at the time.

However, you should always buy some packs to keep for the long run and other packs to open for playing... that's why I took both! I then can open my Chaos packs for play and wait for the XChaos packs to become available later and then decide on them.

I hope this helps!

waaaaaauwie thanks for the super extensive reply becasue it actually does give a lot of clarity. Also today or yesterday Splinterlands itself also came with a post which provided a lot more info so we are getting there for sure.

Good one on the Xchaos explanation, so this is a project from someone privately? That is interesting though and I wonder what the benefit for this person in the end will be.

The number are crazy on this release with all of this madness only 1 million packs have been sold and yes those 2 million will also sell out fast but 16 million? Welll...I am very curious indeed.

Let's see what the launch on the cards next week will bring us and decide from there if I want more of them hahahah
