My Splinterlands Week & Everything Hive

in LeoFinance10 months ago

Some days ago we started a new splinterlands season, and it was such a huge relief to see the end of the last season. This is from the aspect of gameplay and otherwise. Last season was one of my most ineffective and least-rewarding seasons.

This was probably because I couldn't learn any new tactics during the season. I came up against some mind-blowing tactics and in-game strategies and I could swear that they were bot-generated.

It's quite difficult to imagine that a human player could come up with such sophisticated tactics, and whenever this happens, one can incur a losing streak of 7 to 10 games.

Everyone dreads a losing Streak On Splinterlands

Why?

It's a rough patch in gameplay

I got some of these lengthy losing streaks throughout last season. Maybe 2 to 3 times and it took a lot of my ECR and the aim is not to incur some of these losing streaks this season.

However, no matter how much I hated the bot strategies, the ingenuity behind some of these tactics was really amazing, and replicating some of them was very difficult because I didn't have the resources to buy some of those summoners, or cards to bring those tactics to life.

Money Beats Even The Most Formidable Strategies

Some of the cheaper counter strategies I came up with still couldn't compete, and some of my opponents already had counter strategies to some of my gameplay tactics because of the game scope they came up with.

With 126k collection Power, I've finally qualified to play in Diamond 3 Modern and while it seems to be really fascinating, I'll be torn apart should I attempt to even go near the League, but that's not even the main problem.

I finished the season with 32 gold chests, one lesser than what I got from the previous season's 33 and 11 lesser than what I got three seasons ago.

A dip In Season's Rewards

So it's been a downward slope thus far and it's been so frustrating, my season's rewards were not so fascinating either.

However, I loved that I got more merit rewards to buy Gladius cards and got some soulbound summoners to upgrade, I still missed out on getting any pack reward, which is a really good highlight in determining a well-rewarded season because of the dollar value.

However, I've started another season and the aim is to get at least 38 gold league chests, and probably get to gold one.

Second Tier Gaming Is Encouraging

My guild fray ended yesterday and the abysmal also continued, I got 3 wins out of 9 and I think this below-par performance reverberated around the whole Guild members and I think only just one individual had fantastic fray battles.

However, 16.3 SPS is still decent enough for me, it's probably something I'd not get if I wasn't playing in any Guild.

The guild SPS returns have been helping me to build my SPS stash, I know it's probably very small but then the contribution will span across a long period, so it's better than getting nothing.

The Guild play has been revamped by some changes to Splinterlands lately and I've not really taken time to check out what the changes are about, but I'm certain that DEC and DEC-B are going to be seeing some serious traction.

The Splinterlands' INC has some amazing great minds and it's really good to see them working on the clock to bring traction to some of these assets, some of the assets need that utility especially because it'll not be long now before the market begins to boom.

It's a brand new season and HPUD happened two days ago, it's fascinating to move assets here and there

A Concern For SPT

I powered up some hive and also staked some tokens. I've been staking SPT as well, but I don't really know what's been happening WITH SPT.

Aside from the curation aspect, there hasn't been any solid development happening with SPT and I think that's one aspect that needs some concentration and work.

I'm looking forward to the next Guild participation, it's funny how I use to dread playing in the Guild and now I can't seem to get enough.

The goal for me this season is not to repeat last season's poor performance. So far it looks like am managing the season well.
Those are cool season rewards, I hope to get Izar one of these days.

Better luck with your next brawls.

I didn't get any packs though and that definitely makes the season mediocre for me. Although it's true that the soulbound rewards are decent. I also hope not to repeat the loss of last season. It was crazy.

Nice epic gladiator you got there. Not overpowered but certainly useful on high mana battles.

Yeah, you mean the IZAR? I'm not really a fan of life element though, but it's a really decent reward.

This season is way rougher compared to the previous season. I just keep getting quite a few losing streaks this time around and I even stopped fighting for a bit tonight.

As for SPT, I am worried about that as well so I kind of stopped. I do have some SPT being earned but I just delegate it out for returns. I haven't decided what to do with my liquid SPT yet.

I think the seasons gets rougher with time. I don't really know about this season because I've not really played. What mostly baffles me is what makes the competition really tough. I can't seem to understand. I hope it gets better this season for you.

It happens sometimes, but don't worry, I am sure you will not experience a losing streak this season. best of luck.

Haha you mean winning streak? Because I've been experiencing a lot of losing streak lately. Thank you

hahaha no no, you will not experience a losing streak :D Mark my words :D Just don't play the game :D
