First goal achieved - Silver!
What's up?
Hello, today I come to you with news, slowly passes the second week of playing in Splinterlands and as you can probably deduce from the title I managed to achieve the first milestone, that is I hit the silver rank!
I think it's not that bad a result, but the main problem is not scoring, but renting cards. Fighting bots is a real pain, so getting 15k CP is a real struggle.
My advice to others who are also struggling to rent cards cheaply is to find cards with a given CP on https://peakmonsters.com/, then fire up a few cards and refresh on the Splinterlads market.
You will probably ask how is it possible that the problem itself is not to win streak a rank, my hint would be to choose water haha (my best win streak is 18).
My thoughts
Generally, I still find the game itself very exciting and not easy to get bored with. However, I'm wondering how I should really play the game because I'm only able to win easily with one deck, so when I get into missions that aren't related to it I have trouble doing them. Now the question is whether it's worth doing them if I'm getting about 6/7 DEC for one win, and doing the mission actually costs me about 15/20% by constantly losing. So I am actually losing about 162 DEC. Of course, the compensation for this is getting cards from missions, but more on that later.
So what about this silver?
The first thing I'm currently checking is how much DEC I'm spending on playing silver and comparing if it's worth doing missions or if it's just better to pick up crates at the end of the season and collect DEC itself. The biggest motivation to play silver of course is getting cards, see my first drop for yourself.
I will mention that in bronze I was getting only credits and potions, something I'm not interested in at all. If you have any advice please write it in the comments.
