Rebellion Pre-Sale & Splinterlands Season 121 Report - by @pero82

---

Hello everyone! Pozdrav svima!

Rebellion Pre-Sale Event passed the half way point few days ago. Things are heating up, and packs are slowly but steadily selling out. Have you secured your share of pre-sale packs?

Make sure you buy all the packs you need before they run out, because there are only 200k packs left!

Packs are going fast, and you have to keep in mind that some of the biggest players haven't even bought any, they're playing the waiting game.

They're probably waiting to see how much packs will they have to buy to get into one of the top six positions.

The Top 6 players on the Pre-Sale Leaderboard will earn the prestigious honor of helping to design one of the Legendary Summoners in Rebellion.

For now, those top six positions are holding steady, as there wasn't any movement among them, but I bet that the fight is far from over.

Don't get caught out when those big boys start buying again, you might leave empty handed. Get into the pre-sale action, and don't miss out on this amazing opportunity!

In case you missed the news about this new Splinterlands card set called Rebellion, or the details of its presale, you can read everything in this 👉 post. 👈

Other then Rebellion Pre-Sale starting, nothing else big happened in world of Splinterlands during this Season 121. That might change after today's Town Hall, but more on that next time.

Let's dive into my season report which was also a bit exciting (not as exciting as the pre-sale). I managed to finish in the Wild leaderboard again, third season in a row, with getting into Diamond rating in Modern, advancing to higher league at the end of season, so I can collect Diamond season chests again.

This proved to yield better EOS rewards and I will keep on trying to do this. It would be lovely if I could end in leaderboard position in both leagues but that would need buying energy, and renting even more cards. It's not worth it at the moment, but things might change when Rebellion comes.

This season I managed to stake another 2k SPS with most of my staked SPS coming from battle and chest rewards and some tournaments.

The USD value of my SPS portfolio went up by almost 30 USD with the price of SPS at the same level as last season (it is at $0.014).

Total supply of SPS went up by 8 mil since then, total liquid went up by 2 mil (first time it went up since the Staked SPS for Battle rewards were introduced), and total staked SPS is now at round 700 million (went up 6.4 million SPS since last season).

My goal is to keep staking all the SPS I get until I have 100k Staked SPS one day. That should be enough for max rewards in Gold 1 league. 😎

I'm still buying cards, as I'm trying to strengthen my Riftwatchers deck. This is what I managed to acquire by now.

My purchases slowed down this last season, after I managed to acquire Runemancer Florre, as I spent my whole allocated shopping budget. I have to keep my DEC ready for Land which is coming out VERY Soon^TM.

This season I played a mix of Wild and Modern Gold league for Diamond season chests, just like I did last two seasons, as it proved to be very good choice. I continued to rent most of the important Untamed cards and some of the Riftwatchers I don't have, so my win-rate is still very high.

I finished the season at 13th place in Wild league securing a 10,000 DEC reward, which didn't even cover the third of my rental costs of the season. I really really have to cut back on the rentals.

Next season goal is to try and achieve similar result, but with less cards rented. That would be a great achievement.

Lets see how this season looked like in numbers.

I finished the season with awesome win rate of 75% and earned 68 Diamond season chests, together with another 191 Gold daily focus chests (which makes it an average of 12.7 chests per day).

Renting those awesome Untamed and Riftwatchers cards resulted in great performance (as it should), but still have to get better EOS to have any extra profit, or I have to optimize the rentals.

The SPS chart below shows that my SPS earnings were pretty constant during the whole season, with a big in the middle of the season, that nice 92 SPS daily chest. And another spike on the last day - that is the SPS from EOS chest.

Battle SPS is still most often much higher then SPS rewards from chests and I don't think this will ever change.

---

The rating chart below shows my steady climb towards Leaderboard rating, without any big dips or spikes. Starting from Gold 1 really helps, because I get to my "normal" earnings quite early in the season.

I ended the season at 3280 rating in Wild League and 2832 rating in Modern League. I advanced to Diamond in modern and got 13th leaderboard place in Wild, getting 10,000 DEC.

That's why I my rating in Wild will reset to 2050 - middle of Gold 3 league, and Modern will reset to 2350 - middle of Gold 2 league.

After not that amazing EOS rewards last season, I hoped this season will be better, but it wasn't anything worth writing memoirs about.

Ok, I got a decent amount of cards, and decent SPS. I didn't, however, get any CL packs and this was the last season we will be getting them, as their supply is running out.

For the ones that like numbers, I made a recap of the whole season.

Income	Amount
DEC earned from rentals	3,438.499
DEC reward from leaderboards	10,000.000
SPS earned from battles	507.970
SPS earned from chests	1,303.658
SPS earned from tournaments	103.72
Outcome	Amount
DEC spent on rentals and fees	-32,276.585
DEC spent on renting SPS	-2,452.00
SPS spent on tournament fees	-34
PROFIT (DEC)	-21,290.086
PROFIT (SPS)	2,392.542

If we convert that SPS I earned to DEC, we can see I'm still in the green a bit - by just a bit over 10k DEC. 🤑

It is so much easier to track your earning now with the new Currency Activity feature in-game, kudos to Splinterlands developer team for making this happen.

I explained how to use this feature, export it to Excel and do the calculations with the data in one of my previous posts. If you missed it, you can find it in the link below:

And finally, for the ones that like to look at the pretty card pictures (like me) I will show you my whole season recap - all 265 of them (68 Diamond EOS, 10 daily Diamond and 177 daily Gold chests combined). 😍

I did get 1 BCX of Life Splinter Legendary Iziar. Just 1 more to get him up to level 3 when he gets that Martyr ability.

I participated in six tournaments this season, as they aren't as many tournaments available as before. And I did miss a couple of them.
