Unlocking a few Soulbound Cards for myself!

Unlocking

Okay, as you all know Splinterlands recently allowed 'unlocking' of the Chaos Legion Soulbound (CL-SB) cards. They also launched the new Rebellion SB cards.

The CL-SB cards can now be unbound using the following published schedule.

Additionally, every 30 days, the price to unbind a card will increase by a multiple of one.

Day 1-29: 10 times the card's power in DEC
Day 30-59: 11 times the card's power in DEC
Day 60-89: 12 times the card's power in DEC
Day 90-119: 13 times the card's power in DEC
Day 120-149: 14 times the card's power in DEC
Day 150-179: 15 times the card's power in DEC

There is a counter at the unbind page that gives an idea how long is the window of opportunity when the card can be unbound, after that the card is permanently soulbound.

There are two choices currently, well three really!:

  1. Unbind the card and sell, rent, or use it in an alt account if you need
  2. Burn the card for glint, which you can use to get new reward cards
  3. Do nothing!

Also there are 3 ways to pay the unlock fee:

  1. DEC
  2. DEC-B
  3. Credit!!

I don't currently have much DEC and have absolutely no DEC-B. Thankfully, and I almost missed it, I can pay the unlock fee using Credit. This is what I have been doing. I can purchase credits using paypal, and credit is available readily.

On my main account I have a full set of CL-SB cards, and some extras. I am planning on unlocking some of the extra legendaries to transfer to my Silver-Gold-Diamond level account that sometimes I play manually. That way I will have all the critical cards to play.

Glint: How much do I need?

This I do not know to be sure, but my friend Vugtis did the calculation below

mathematically to max 1 set = ~9M GLINT (not counting chest, since chest has better EV, the number will be likely less)
9M / 24 (24 seasons/12 months) = 375k / season

Summary:
If you can earn about 375k/season, you will be able to complete the reward set within 1 year
Average champion can reach this amount without buying energy.

By setting average champion (lower end of champion) as the baseline :
5k rating champion will get it lesser than 1 year
Gold level player won't be able to complete it within 1 year without buying energy.

Currently on my main account I have little more than 6M Glint. I am in no rush. As per Vugtis I will likely have a full Rebellion Reward card set in 12 months, likely less than that.

Very nice! I think the best thing Splinterlands really has going for it is the ease of getting cash into the game via credits.

Nice! I can't afford to unlock any! I should look into selling some grain to get the DEC I need.

then you have to consider the 'burn for glint option'

If you wait to long before unbinding your soul-bounds then the floor price of the card on the market will increase to keep pace with the unbind price.

Take this time to figure out what cards you want to unbind and do it sooner rather than later.

I have been doing trades with my Adelaide buddies for a few spares I need and they have, I send them the DEC for the unbind and they send me the cards.

Summoners, I think will be most valuable, bringing in a gladiator will usually win a battle.

Enjoyed your interview on the podcast, I will take your suggestions on board, perhaps describe my Australian suburban street

Wow 9M glint is way out of my reach. I did burn all of my extras for glint, and am just trying to get a copy of each rebellion card for now. If you have a lot of extra cards, I think there are some people in the Discord looking to buy SB cards from players.

I'm quite shocked to see more than 1 post a month from you😂😂😂

Didn't know about the currency glint...
Well as I'm not yet a player I guess there are plenty things about the game I'm not knowledgeable about...

Between Glint, Dec and Credits, which currency is higher..

I will definitely not use unbinding to speculate in any big way, for me it mainly about building up my playing deck

I think I will mainly unbind cards that I need to send from my alt to my main to gain max lvl.

After that I will unbind some of the good common cards at 1 BCX, like the Martyr cards, the Costal Sentry and the Swamp Spitter and that death guy with protect. These I will hold on to to rent in the future or possibly sell down the road if they prove worth it.

I have a couple of GFL Iziars , and while its a great card, I will probably burn it for Glint to get more of the new reward cards.

my priority with DEC is picking up the amazing Untamed bargains on the market right now, I can't believe the prices these are going for, they will be key cards in wild

Was looking for such a glint calculations, thanks @vugtis, that helps with a ballpark figure.
Currently not hitting 375K glint per season 🤣. Last two season i manage to get that much with buying energy.

Is it better to buy chests or card draws in your or vugtis opinion, to complete the set as soon as possible?

Buying more SPS to boost my glint earnings, bit by bit. Only some whales are pushing price higher and higher, just to soon🤣.

Let's delve into the Builda whale farm on the Hive, Gogreenbuddy, who is also colloquially known as the Marky mark USAINVOTE UPMYVOTE IPROMOTE and 100's more if not thousands this individual has asserted that his intentions behind this initiative are driven by a desire to contribute positively to the community. Now, let's explore what he is earning on a monthly basis from this venture. income is said to be generated through the use of multiple alternative accounts, which he utilizes to cast votes in favor of his own shit content. The community seems to have mixed feelings about this practice many are scared to speak up.

Are you ready to delve deeper into this topic and uncover more insights? If so, let's proceed. It's time to wake up and gain a clearer understanding of the situation at hand.

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues

lol the Marky mark keeps dreaming

There's been a notable increase in frustration and concern among many users

Reply 2 @crimsonclad You may consider yourself clever

Reply to @crimsonclad

Consider revising the value plan, as it's not providing significant benefits to HIVE

The Value Plan, as it stands, seems to be a one-sided relationship with the HIVE platform, where the benefits are one-way

Actions indeed speak louder than words, a fact we've all observed individuals may talk a good game, a whole lot of shit, but their actions often expose their genuine nature LOL

We consider it unwise to engage in harmful actions, even if you think you can escape the repercussions

The Hive Police aka Hivewatchers, are the real heroes of Hive LOL, aren't they?

Feast your eyes on Hive's trending page, what a load of trash

LoL it's the Hivewatchers Hive Police, dishing out orders like a bakery LOL! Folks, do what you want with your Hive power, just as you please. And you, Hivewatchers, downvote away, but remember, judgment day's coming

Harry fam We're just here, laughing at the shenanigans on Hive! Sure, our content's getting downvoted, but hey, it's all part of the game LOL

On Hive, there's a user who frequently burns a significant amount of Hive LOL with his own accounts

How To Fool An Entire Population

it's so, so concerning to see Blocktrades delegating 2+ million Hive power to Buildawhale, and Buildawhale is downvoting legitimate content

We began sharing factual information following unwarranted downvotes on Hive it's all in the transactions

Upon examining our posts, you will notice they have been downvoted, and we've been labeled as scammers and spammers, which we find amusing. We consistently share new content

Once again, we ask why is our legit content being downvoted on Hive and what is the reason behind it. Hivewatchers ADM spaminator steemcleaners guiltyparties logic

We have Hive witnesses farming Hive, self-voting, operating comment farms, and self-funding projects with community resources
