[Splinterlands] The Flippening is Officially Here!

We've seen heavy sales volume on packs the last few days, so I decided to take a look at the card values to see if The Flippening had arrived.

And sure enough, it has.

At this point, if you get any kind of discount on potions at all, your expected value from buying a 575 promo deal of packs is greater than the cost of those packs. So you can buy packs, sell the cards, use the money to buy even more packs and repeat.

That's the flippening.

How long it will remain in effect is anyone's guess.

Sort:  

Still blows my mind that you can get hundreds of cards for less than the price of a pack :P But yeah, that's just commons and some rares thrown in. I have a bunch of unopened packs. I might make an attempt to do a flippening do obtain more packs... as I have about ~110 packs worth of potions sitting there... :D

it really sounds like an interesting idea of yours! unfortunately I am so bloody new in Splinterlands I do not even know how to use that potions :D

I have been looking into buying some packs, but I just don't have the money to be doing that at this point. Perhaps after I have a bit more DEC saved up.

Splinterlands videos on youtube make me feel good inside, I love watching them :)

Interesting... how did the peakmonsters pack value calculator compare to your manual spreadsheet calculations?

hah, totally forgot that tool exists! Woulda made this process a bit faster.

Pretty close when I use the "Use last market price" option. It doesn't show the cost of potions though.

Haha k well good to know and yes I suppose potions doesn't use the market price just listed price

Even better if they could open the packs and know they got as much value from bids that is a solid flippening

Is that because the price of cards is particularly high?

Yep, that's it in a nutshell.

Only problem is my luck is so diabolically bad I'd be sure to make a loss. I'll never forget those 1150 packs without a single GFL. it's the same on Rising Stars too. Not a single legendary since they went into Beta and only 1 in Alpha.

Has your luck improved at all?
