My first Splintertalk Post - Happy New Year!

Hello fellow Splinterlands players and Hiveans!

Happy New Year & best wishes to everyone for all the best to come in your lives and your crypto portfolios! 😺

This is my first post on Splintertalk! it will contain some of my last steps on the game and the strategies I am forming in order to be more successful and earn more and hopefully with your input I will understand better the kind of content that is optimal on this community!

After approximately six months in the game, having some very lucky moments and making some rookie mistakes that however taught me valuable lessons, I have decided to use my brain and calculate my every move (as possible of course) instead of acting spontaneously. I want to make the most of my time in the game and make it by having a good time as an extra perk!

Starting this Season, I posed the following little (or rather big) Splinterlands question for the seasoned and strategic ones on noise ( You can read the answers here ) !

What is the best strategy to follow in regards of investing in and managing your in-game tokens? What I mean:

I was able to swap an amount of fiat for SPS and DEC and I want the best results in regards to earning more SPS per day from the airdropped ones, as well as Vouchers for #ChaosUnleashed .

Some of the amount I have used to buy #SPS now that it's dipping and a smaller one I converted to #DEC , #hodling it at the moment in order to get more SPS per day and waiting for it to reach a decent amount in order to buy cards with as big Card Power as possible, so that I can stop renting the expensive ones to reach higher leagues (I don't care if the cards are at a high CP from their first level or if I have to buy more ones of the same monster and level them up, what I care for is to get the best CP value for money).

Tokens-wise, my question is:

If you had an amount of SPS, would staking them in-game bring more Chaos Legion vouchers (and is it worth it to wait for it to get dropped/ is it better to buy it from Hive Engine/ Atomic Hub/ elsewhere), or would you convert some of the SPS to DEC in order to get more SPS every day?

I know I have put it "somewhat" complicated, I couldn't write it more plainly because I am confused about my options, but in general the question behind the questions is: How do you manage your in-game invested money token-wise to get the best results - all aspects considered?

The outcome of the answers in a nutshell was to buy and hold in-game as much DEC as possible, so that I can get more SPS dropped every day and these SPS I can choose each day either to swap again for DEC on Hive Engine or to stake them in order to get more Vouchers airdropped. I don't understand the Vouchers and the packs options though and what is the best strategy for those!

Yesterday, January 2nd, the trick started working! I started gathering DEC in-game in order to get more SPS dropped, and while until the day before I was getting 0.889 SPS, today I got 2.316 (along with the APR Ready to Claim for my staked ones) !

You can read more about the people that helped me on this post!

I swapped those 2.316 SPS on #HiveEngine for 0.31498 swap.hive (Highest Bid: 0.13600318) & then for 108.89 DEC (Lowest Ask: 0.00298109) , so that I make my DEC stash even bigger!

I am trying to sell SPS when the Highest Bid is higher and to buy DEC when the Lowest Ask is lower!

At some point I am going to start staking more SPS in order to get more #Voucher dropped for the #ChaosUnleashed !

And to top the good day, one Epic & one Rare monsters joined my collection after my Water Quest and I made up for the DEC I spent for convenience in only half an hour!

(I made a post about it here!)

Twilight Basilisk (Rare - Dragon) and Djinn Renova (Epic - Life)! Currently I am on Silver III and at the last two days of the season I will rent as many cards needed to match my ranking to the highest League I make it up to! If I reach the ranking for Gold much earlier, I will consider if it is good for my DEC & my number of chest rewards to rent cards in order to advance or lie low!

At the current phase I am not burning myself out by playing for long times, I try to keep my Capture Rate and my own energy high and use my mind to make more #earnings with the game! Also put my #tokens & #assets to work for me! I have plenty of time to start playing more in the future, when my Card Power and my League are bigger based on owned cards, not rented! During next days though I am going to try playing one more hour throughout the day, so that I can gather more #DEC from won battle #rewards !

I also sometimes swap my Starbits from Rising Star game for DEC or SPS when the prices are good for me and I don't want to use them for buying cards there or Starpro for Festivals!

At times I may have minor mistakes in my spreadsheet numbers, as I am not getting hysterical to document everything dead to the point, rather want to have a holistic insight of where I am, where I want to go and what ways I have available to achieve it!
