I like how you think about it. We witness the birth of a new game and even participate in how it's shaped up to a degree. We should enjoy it, this will be a huge part of Splinterlands in the future. And we are early adopters, once again.
I see many are looking down at their own presumably low-value land. I wouldn't disconsider even natural common land. I have a feeling all land will continue to be very valuable, regardless of the rarity and category.
I'm just hoping to see some of the larger holders dumping their common land for cheap and pick up a lot more plots.
They are already under $60 so might see $30 or $40 yet.
You may end up with some bargains!
Judging by these prices, it seems I did well selling my two extra plots when they were unclaimed. The chances of them being common were pretty high.
