Bought My First Batch of Chaos Legions Packs In The Presale~

avatar

Hi Everyone,

When the announcement was made for Chaos Legion came out, I knew I would be short making a big purchase during the presale. Before the announcement was made, I had a target pack I can buy using money from other small investments projects but knowing there is a voucher system involved, all those plans have been thrown out the window. So my target definitely have reduced but I haven't given up. With the pretty shiny promo card on offer for every 50 packs plus any purchases over 100 packs in one go you get a bonus, I have to draw up a new plan. The plan currently is buy my first 100 pack to get at least 2 promo cards, 10% bonus packs (10 packs) and take advantage of the 300 airdrop points for each pack to get more SPS.

There was also another dilemma, if I had paid for my purchase with SPS, I would have received another 10% discount on my purchase but I decided not to and pay using my credits instead. Thanks to the Hive pump earlier in the month, I was able to get some credits in preparation for the pack purchases and now I can take advantage of this and no need to use any of my valuable SPS. I did notice that if I decide to use the remaining vouchers I have, the discount still applies for the additional numbers but I decided to stop at 100 for now and see how I go with the rest of the campaign.

After confirming all information and finally decided to use my credit to buy the packs, I can confirm my purchase. I could have used my DEC but they are the best to hold at the moment to get airdrops so again it was a no brainer to use credits since I got them at a good price. Although I didn't catch the highest moment to get my credit, I still got a nice deal and I'm glad I did that so I am still ahead. Ok, time to confirm! Boom! Just like that, 110 packs safely under my name. At the time of purchase, I was placed top 100 user with number of packs and I have 2 promo cards under my belt. Remember the last Kickstarter campaign, I joined and got some Chain Golem so hopefully I won't regret this purchase rather than waiting for general sale which you can get packs for $4, just no promo card.

We are nearly 1/3 way of the voucher campaign, let's see how the vouchers are going. The price at the time of writing is just over $15 which is pretty good considering more tickets are out there. I anticipate the prices of the vouchers will go much higher towards the end of the presale as everyone is trying to get their hands on some last minute purchases. I am still not sure if I will buy more packs or sell the rest of the tickets but at this stage, I will be holding, the promo card is still too good to pass up. What are your plans with your Splinterlands vouchers?

I think the plan with Vouchers are to just try and buy enough, probably around now, to take you to that next batch of 50 - I'm trying to estimate how many I'll need to get me up to 400 packs in total....

Yep the first 100 packs is the first hurdle. 400 pack is pretty good, not trying for the 500 pack deal?

I'm quite happy with my SL investment ATM - I'd have to buy an additional $3000 of voucher to cover that - I'd get what I now know is a GFL but I didn't know it would be legendary when I bought my first 100 packs - it's marginal anyway - whether the card would be worth $3K - quite possibly it will, but at the end of the day I'm trying avoid this drift-drift into spending more mony on SL so can live without it!

Good tactics which sound very much alike with my 100 packs purchase. It is bending and weighing and looking for the right moment, but looking forward to opening the packs (and the promo card which was revealed looks decent to play with!)

I'm happy you made your target purchase. With the variance in prices and the airdrops, credits sound like the best option, I agree. We might see an increase in prices at the end of the presale, but who knows? I'm far from my target, but I hope to get some. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Too many variables so just go with the flow, getting the 100 packs is the minimum so now I can just "not worry about it " for a while haha
