Hey Splintermates, what is going on? The Splinterlands team is proposing a new Social Media Challenge. We have been asked to share some exciting moments with the rest of the community and also to potential new players out there.

For that reason, I encourage all Splinterlands players to participate in these challenges. It is a very easy way to show on social media how amazing our game is and in this way, you are also able to get some earning to reinvest in the game. If you don´t know how to do it, please go to the following link.

Similar to the previous Splinterlands Social Media Challenge, where I shared how to get a free Beta pack, I would like to share with the community this week the amazing rewards I got due to League Advancement.

LEAGUE ADVANCEMENT IN WILD

For all Splinterlands players that are reading my article, I use to play ranked battles in Modern and Wild. I try to claim every season in both leaderboards. I know my deck doesn´t allow me to get any leadorboard rewards, but at least I am able to get some juicy League Advancement Rewards.

Last season in Wild, I was able to climb up to 2.480 rating. This is belongs to Gold 2. With an additional win, I would have climbed to Gold 1 and get some additional rewards, but sometimes, there are psychological barriers that for unknown reasons, you cannot cross. I got over 54% winrate, so it was a decent season.

In Modern ranked format, I played more battles, but I got nearly the same winrate as in Wild. I was able to climb also to Gold 2. As you might have been able to read in my blog, I am focusing on the future change in Modern format, where Chaos Legion will rotate out and Conclave Arcana will jump in to this new format. For more information, you can read my All in in Rebellion.

Thanks to this League Advancement rewards, I have been able to win a regular foil legendary card GALLICUS and one Olivia of the Brook, my favourite Rebellion Soulbound card.

If you take a look at Gallicus, it is the only card available with Taunt ability that can be used also in little league battles. This card gets more and more interesting when it gets to lvl 2 and above. GALLICUS obtains Shield ability at lvl 2, Strengthen at lvl 3 and Headwinds at lvl 4.

The other amazing reward has been Olivia of the Brook. This card gets the amazing ability of Mimic at lvl 2. This ability reads as follows:

At the beginning of round 2 and each following round, gain a random ability from the enemy team. 25% chance to gain a random ability from an attacker when hit. Dispel removes one mimicked ability in the order they were gained. Debilitations, Targeting abilities, Ambush, Weapons Training, Flank, Reach, Charge, and Taunt cannot be mimicked.

If you are able to combine this card with Iziar and try to keep Iziar and Olivia as much as possible alive, she will start learning all type of abilities and it will evolve to a monster.

If you are interested in seeing her life, please have a look at my battle below. Spoiler: I lost the battle, but you can see the amount of abilities that she learns.

Ranked modes MODERN vs WILD

Before I finish, I would like to share my thoughts on the MODERN vs WILD discussion. I consider both modes are compatible and even more, if you want to maximize your Soulbound reward cards. If I start having a loosing strike of 3 or 4 battles, I use to change from one to the other.

It is true that there a WILD PASS you need to pay every season, but thanks to these Social Media Challenges and the earning I got, I am able to pay every season.

But there is also another important reason why I keep playing in WILD. There are some amazing cards that I own that I still want to play, like YODIN ZAKU, KRON THE UNDYING or the AXEMASTER. I still want to play with them and as I said on X some time ago, SPLINTERLANDS is the TRIPLE F: FINANCES, FUN and FRIENDS!

If you have made until the end, thanks for reading and lets share with me which have been your amazing League Advancement rewards.
