Hello all Splinters,
I'm here to share my late Splinterlands diary.
This is also my entry for the Splinterlands Weekly Challenge 👍

It's the 1st season after Ranked Battle Overhaul. With this change, the season summary report from Splex is not available to capture the rewards anymore.
After many changes in the game, I don't feel so much joy when playing the game. I play less and less games in my free time.

1.SPS earning

• I got ~219 staked SPS from ranked battle/ brawl rewards and Nightmare packs this season ❌ There are no more reward chests in the game, which means there are no more daily and seasonal staked SPS rewards. Finally, my staked SPS comes from 3 sources: ranked battle, brawl, and Nightmare packs. It's reflected in the above chart
• My ranked battle reward slightly increased compared to the previous season. It's because I could claim up to Silver League II

2. DEC earning

• After several increasing seasons, my DEC earnings reduced again.
• If you see the below active players chart, it well explains the number of active players were significant reduced after RBO launch and that why's my DEC earning was dragged down
  

3. Cards

• My deck value dropped again, to $292. This is my new ATL. It's only 1/3 of its value compared to last year. So you should consider carefully when you want to buy the cards.
• I was able to buy 24 draws in this season, which gave me 31 cards but I can not upgrade any card :(

4. My updated plan and target of 2024

• Join the Guild brawl regularly ✅ and upgrade my Gladiator cards to Silver league cap level. I changed my fray in the Brawl to Silver league and upgrading the cards is needed to have a higher win rate.
• Increasing my DEC contribution to the Guild to upgrade the Store to level 6 to buy the Blood Stone✅
• The SPS price is quite low now, I will keep my liquid SPS in my pocket and will swap to HBD when it reaches $0.03 or higher.
• Keep at least 150 Nightmare packs to get staked SPS until its game launches✅
• I will not buy more cards but use the draw to upgrade my reward monster to the capped level of level 5 Rare summoner.

That's all for now.
