Hi Everyone,
Today marks half way of the Chaos Legions airdrops with the 7th million pack sold last night. Since the sale of Chaos Legions, many players including myself was determined to buy packs early to take advantage of the airdrops as early as possible to maximise the chances of getting these precious legendary cards. With us half way through the airdrops, it is still not too late to join in the fun and get these packs. Not only you are in the chance in getting the remaining 7 airdrop cards, you will get various SPS airdrop points depending if you hold the packs unopened or have them opened, they all earn some sort of points. In the long run, these SPS will come in handy when the game continues to expanding in particular land.
Pack to these packs, as I have bought over 1000 packs, at this stage, I have been getting all the airdrop cards. If you look at the history of the game, the airdrop cards are all pretty unique and in the long run are great to hold to keep value and in most cases like myself, I end up using them in my normal day to day game play. Once the airdrop finishes and packs are gradually opened, we will see the demand of these valuable cards go up. If you are one of players who started collecting the airdrop cards from day 1 from the Chaos Legion set, this could be your best investment yet just looking at these cards (not even the unopened packs or cards you have opened). What is given to you for 'free' is essentially giving you a head start advantage. As a player who have been here since the start, these are sure valuable in some way or form. Just look at the past airdropped cards and you know what I mean.
Out of the 7 cards dropped so far, I have two that I love and see myself using in the future. First is the one which was airdropped today, Spirit Hoarder. Funny enough when I saw the name, this card was pretty much made for me as I've been told I'm a hoarder at home and like to collect all sorts of things at home in particular Hello Kitty bits and pieces. This legendary card is a neutral monster meaning it can be used with any splinter in the game which makes it attractive. Second is the triage ability allowing to heal the back line monster when it gets hit. With the splinters I play, I don't have any cards with the triage ability so this one will be a good one to add to my line up. Of course as you level up, more abilities but even at level 1, this card is enough for the time being. At $15, it is sure worth it!
The other card I like which was airdropped was the card number 6 called Grum Flameblade. I don't play fire splinter except on my alt account but I can see this card being really powerful in the long run. Matched with summoner Qid Yuff, Grum could be pretty dangerous. You would ask why I don't play fire splinter but like the card, it is because of the potential. Since the announcement of Chaos Legions, I am hoping to work on the other splinters I don't have at a level so I can have a more all rounded set. Fire is one of them and I am hoping my plan will play out and be able to use it in the near future. The card is not cheap currently listed around $19 as many players can see how useful it can be so best bet could be finding them in packs or wait for a cheap deal on the market. I am fortunate to have 6 in hand so will definitely make good use of it when the time comes.

How many did you end up with, any gold ones?
The recent one i ended up with 3, no gold :(
You???
I got 4 regulars and no golds, I like the mercenary cards, they battle with all splinters
Can you recommend some good cards to buy from market?
I want to start playing but confused about card collection
If you haven't started, you can use my referral to start: https://splinterlands.com/?ref=travelgirl
card wise really depends on your strategy so I suggest you rent different cards to see if you like them then commit to buying them if you are sure. Also that way you can also test which splinters you like to use. I use life, earth and death most times
Nice. I have been receiving the SPS airdrop (and staking it) and I was gifted 2 packs of that chaos league I haven't opened.
I've just too busy these days to dive into literature to find out what I want to do with splinterlands of late.
Your post was educating.
PS I love the fire splinter and I use it a lot. My highest rank has been bronze `1 after renting so many cards.
Is also the truth that making DEC from gaming has been so hard...what's your take on that
Staking SPS is the best way to get some nice daily returns on rewards. Great job on that.
Re DEC earnings, I see this as a good opportunity to accumulate it rather than just purely looking at earning per game, DEC used to be really low priced and what we see now is still way better than what we used to so hang in there :)
Lol...ok noted...i"ve got this exam preparation eating up my playtime these days...but I'll get back there soon enough.
Have a lovely Sunday!!
And I think the best are yet to come, the summoners.
I went a bit mental when I saw Grum and bought 4 Gold ones!
Far out i remember you said you won't be buying land then you ended up with a tract and now you are getting the gold cards .... I can't justify paying for them yet until I level up my other cards first and then look at getting 1 if the prices go down a bit.
you are going all out!! hahaha
I guess the cards could well come down in price... Levelling up what you need first is defo the best approach I think, you might get lucky with drops too, you never know.
I'm doing OK with Engine tokens, it makes Vesting in SL easy. It's all just fake internent tokens after all!
Opening card packs and waiting for airdrops have been my fun activities lately. I am yet to actively play the game but I am reading all amazing articles to collect ideas.
Reading articles by active players is the best way to learn the game and see another perspective. I do agree opening packs are addictive!
OMG, 1000 is a lot. I only got 6 and not luck drop on me yet.
yep ace 哥，might as well go out in (my limit) hahaha
you can also get these cards (except for dr blight) from packs or get them from the market which so far is pretty affordable if you miss out on the airdrop
Haha, I think I'll stick to being cheap for now. Time is not enough. Still monitoring the Rabona day to day.
I only got 4 packs so far but it's something.
