I need 5450 STEEM. Will Splinterlands Achieve My Goal?

avatar

Yep, that is a ton of money (on my side)

If I need to prep both my mom's cornea transplant surgery and #steemfest 5 tickets, then I gotta get this amount out.

Today the exchange rate looks rather promising, but I haven't been really playing the Splinterlands battles.

rewards2020011601.png

Fortunately, last week on my last battle before I went dark due to work and family, I was able to keep at Silver I level and was blessed enough to have a little more reward cards to open.

With the hope of some nice cards to look into...

Fortunately, I did!

rewards2020011602.png

This is the first time I got 2 LEGENDARY and 3 RARE Cards at one end season opening, so all the slaughtered battles were worth it.

I have been killed by the Spirit Miner for many times whenever I see it in action, and I was wondering how the heck can I afford a card like this...

$2.98

The total isn't a lot but there are a number of my favourite cards in the mix.

With additional Sea Monster cards I managed to level it up to level 3, and hopefully in future I can rent this out since I have a gold edition with me.

I am keeping one of them as a wedding gift too

Wood Nymph is one of my favourites; and I have been very blessed to have won quite a bit of this healer (I cannot remember if I acquired her before because my accounts log did not mention this card) so definitely this is going to be part of the wedding gift I am going to set aside and maybe lease them out until the munchkins are ready to own them.

I have never got a chance to use Silvershield Assassin successfully before, but I have been blessed 3 times with this reward card. Probably next time when I use the dragon card with large total mana I might be able to use this card.

This dragon card is a tricky one. It could be very useful when mana is low, but at the same time this card is kind of weak at the health side. If there is a chance to get it to team up in any battle I will definitely share here; but so far I have not managed to use affliction function successfully.

Another fortunate thing is...

splinterlandslog2020011606.png

When I finally finished my last pending challenges, I got myself a gold undead minotaur, which could come in handy

And not to mention I also won another undead minotaur from @forever-crypto which allows me to set them aside to level up when I have enough to head towards level 4.

And probably if I keep winning this I might level it up for renting just to have a bit of passive income.


I do hope that with these slightly stronger cards I could be able to fully utilise them, earn the DECs and keep investing them in DEC while not touching the Steem that I have earned.

USD 525 for processing fees for my mom to have Fuchs Endothelial Dystrophy operation is NOT CHEAP.

But this is way cheaper than pre-cut cornea transplant that is coming from the USA.

Note: All Malaysia cornea transplants are donated, but the process from USA to pick the healthy ones and be sent over to patients in Malaysia is very expensive

So steem on, eat healthily, take care of your eyes and wish wish me all the best in this challenge journey by 18 August 2020.

And hopefully, I will still be able to meet everyone again this year.

Don't worry, 1% of this post still goes to null

All the caricatures are manually modified by me after generated from iMirror. Most of them you won't see them available. If you want a similar caricatures as stickers but too lazy to edit them after generating, I can be of service with a bit of steem fee

I too got a Spirit Miner, he doesn't look all the great to me TBH, you say he's been beating you up?

The Assassin is great, but only for high mana matches.

Yeah a few of my battles I encountered with this guy teaming up with the Wind Spirit slaughtered me everytime.


Going to look forward to try the Assassin out if there is ever a chance.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

I wouldn’t bank on it, but I think it’s a good investment. Do you lease out your cards? I do.
I also use the affiliate link where possible.

What you could do is make 3Speak or DTube videos about it. There are Splinterlands competitions where they offer large prizes sometimes. If you are good, enter tournaments too.
I’ve been trading on Steem-Engine and you can always sell DEC for Steem if necessary.

That’s a lot of Steem. I wish you the best of luck and wish your mother a rapid recovery.

Thanks for all these useful tips @shaidon ! But I am seeing that DECs are losing its value, so at this point of time I am trading off some of my other Tokens (that are not staked) into DEC so that I can upgrade the cards with those and reserve my earned steem aside.

I am actually planning to lease out the higher levelled ones for an affordable price... so that beginners can at least have a feel how they are used. I think especially reward cards because starter packs do not have them.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

oh you mean the PAL discord?

Yeah I am trying to play whenever I am free. Right now it is just tons of real life work and needs to be met. So I try to at least stay at Silver I by the end of the season. Don't think I can go for Gold yet.

The Assassin is a beat if placed correctly and levelled up.
It attacks twice with sneak! And if you level it up rl 3(I think) it get another attack dmg. So its 4 dmg now :D
Plus extra dmgs from the Horse in Life = 6 attack :D

She can destory in enemies backline :D

Good luck with reaching your goals.

By the way, how you did you get the values displayed with the reward cards? Browser plugin or manual work?

Keep on pushing and have a great weekend :)

You are right on that @chekohler ! Fingers crosed for the value to stable and slowly float upwards. And hopefully by July, it will be strong enough for me to need less steem to withdraw and I could support back this awesome blockchain community.

Thank you for your encouragement.

Good luck! That's a big goal but fortune favors the brave. Maybe some splinterland tournament luck and publishox posting will get you to the magic number.

Oh wow! You are the second person who has spoke about PublishOx. Are you there too?

Yeah I am just hoping that I won't let my itchy fingers spend off some bad card purchase and ended up not achieving the goal by August. 🙈
