My Rental adventure 2023 - 35 weeks later, as I got some extra DEC

Splinterlands latest news are:

• Splinterlands laid off some of their staff, and divided into two entities, one related to Splinterlands and Soulkeep, and another one related to Genesis League and few other projects, as some want to redirect their full attention to the main game, instead of the side projects.
• Land feature is already tested on the Maverick server and the few pics available are looking awesome.
• The Land 1.5 upgrade is happening in September, I believe, there are quite a few bugs to be sorted out, and it will be a lot of DEC ready to be traded, to get all those lands ready. I am not yet prepared, with probably enough cards for maybe 20 lands, and not enough DEC yet. Runi are ready to be used on this upgrade, we were told.

• You can now buy Riftwatchers with DEC. 5000 for 1 pack. They are also getting burned too, daily.
• GLX and GLUSD are now accepted to buy Credits in-game on Splinterlands. Y0u need to have them on the Hive-Engine, though. Tested the cash-to-crypto payment too, works quite well, even with the card, Apple Pay and GPay.
• Check the new updated roadmap, we are getting there, with some work to be done on the land feature soon, but there is some worrying feeling, as quite few old-time players stopped being active in the game, with the profit going down. We need new players, and some easy way to onboard them. This is the improvement that I would like to see.

As for my Splinterlands plans, this season was awful, as I dropped all the way to Gold II, not so proud,as My Chaos Legion core cards are all max level now, and the leveling of the Riftwatchers cards is on the schedule, with few more cards upgraded. I may try Wild to see how is it going for now. I may focus on upgrading some of my summoners next, now that they are cheaper then before, as we were informed that they will not be used for land.

As I have started this few seasons ago (beginning of November 2022), these are my stats:

Chaos Legion packs unopened: 445 (+2)

Riftwatchers packs bought: 213 (+10)

Riftwatchers packs unopened: 50 (+10) I got the 50 extra that I wanted.

DEC needed: 435k/5000k

​

Cards upgraded and rented:

Just 10 BCX for the Night Ghoul, aiming for max level 10. Put almost everything into DEC, on Tribaldex, to farm some SPS.

​

The time is near. I was upgrading key cards, but now I need to get some DEC into my wallet, waiting for the land feature to be unveiled. The strategy was to use the DEC from rentals to upgrade fully the Riftwatchers set, but the renting profit plummeted lately. ( I have left to upgrade 9 common, 12 rare, 4 epics and 6 legendary cards). I want to buy some max level Gold and legendary cards, if possible, to get 5 lands fully prepared (1 Keep and 1 Castle, and the 3 occupied ones, at first). In the same time I got the 50 Riftwathcers pack to sell later next year for some profit in Hive, and use the GLX and SPS rewarded from now on to upgrade some more cards. Vouchers still go on Tribaldex for more SPS farming (Voucher - Hive pair). I started to sell the land, as 1.5 upgrade is close, 5 common lands per week until I finish selling the common ones. I will adjust the strategy as I go.

​

All the best,

George
