Welcome to another article where I write about my journey playing Splinterlands! There’s a lot of stuff going up as pre-sales over the next couple of weeks. Today the Riftwatcher’s set went on sale a little after the end of the season. The initial “pre-sale” lasted a little under 2 minutes, where the first 500K, of 3 million, packs sold out.
I tried to buy 50 packs to get the promo card, but my purchase was about 12 seconds too late after it had sold out. They’ve said they’ll refund people who just missed out if they want to return the packs, but so far I haven’t taken them up on it. Granted, as the prices of Splintershards (SPS) has gone up, it would make financial sense to get it back and buy 50 packs for less SPS.
Anyhow, with a lot of season end items to cover, let’s move on to the usual breakdown of the past week:

Since I got so many from daily chests, I opened up 4 Chaos Legion packs at the same time this week:
Guild Brawls:
Guild Brawl #102, playing Bronze League Gold Foil Only. The guild hasn’t been doing great in brawls. We came in 3rd from last place this time around.
Vs. LOGANTRON of TEAM POSSIBLE POWER
Vs. MONSTER-INC of PEAKMONSTERS FEEDER 3
Guild Brawl #103, playing Bronze League Gold Foil Only. While I felt like I did decently, the guild came in 2nd to last place.

I opened up one more Gladius Pack:
The Rest:
No tournaments or trading this week, though I was looking at my extra cards and thinking I should try to trade some of them. Another tough season, where I only managed to squeeze my way into Diamond at the end of the season. Silver was fairly rough too, but I was able to stay in Silver I fairly easily on my alternate account.
I got 69 Silver chests for the season on my alt, and 39 Diamond chests on my main. I actually think the Diamond chests may have come out better this time around though, due to the amounts of SPS in Silver chests just being so small.
I should note that I mainly played in Wild all season. I did run up from Bronze III to Silver I on my alt account in Modern at one point, but only really played Wild on my main. And, that’s plenty for this week! Thank you for reading and I’ll be back next week with another update!
