Optimistic on Trajectory While Being Bored of Waiting - Splinter Stats Season 50 Report
The most optimistic I felt about @splinterlands over the years was during the time we saw SPS launch along with many other expansions such as Praetoria, Validator Nodes and Soulkeep amidst the All Time Highs. Then the bear market came before any of the projects delivered on their promises. We are finally at a time where a significant number of those old promises are being delivered. This is a great change of events and as far as I can understand, many of the remaining promises will be delivered by the earl parts of 2025. I expect the bull market to reach its top in late 2025 (based on the current information).
The direction of a project is what matter the most for investors who are looking for a profit. There is a level of uncertainty when investing and the size and confidence regarding the investment is proportional to the optimism regarding the said investment. There are many good reasons believe that we are very close to seeing some of the best times for altcoins in the coming months. We have strong fundamentals. What is left is for more mainstream users and investors to come.
Match Report
Performance
| Stat | #wild |
|---|---|
| Champion Rank | 1038 |
| Rating | 3860 - Champion III |
| Rating High | 3900 |
| Ratio (Win/Loss) | 1.05 (193/183) |
| Longest Streak | 6 |
The highest League achieved does not matter if you fall from that League before the end of the Season. I had to start at a lower Rating this Season because I did not stop playing after reaching Champion II. It will be a difficult journey getting back to Champion II again under increasing competition.
Rewards Report
Earnt Tokens (Ranked Rewards)
| Ranked Play Wins | Tokens Received |
|---|---|
| 193 | ✨ -317 Glint + ⭐641.538 SPS |
Glint season rewards will show in the season they are claimed.
It is the SPS Rewards that is a cryptocurrency. Glint is not tradable and Wild players have to purchase a Wild Pass in order to participate in Battles. Since we are seeing continuous All Time Lows for SPS every few days, it is increasingly becoming difficult to justify playing Wild Leagues for many players.
I can manage to profit a few dollars per Season as long as SPS does not drastically drop in price. The problem is that I play in Diamond and Champion Leagues which used to be the only Leagues where Max Level Cards were allowed. On top of this I have 115,215 SPS staked. It ranks 1019th among SPS stakes. Smaller players are forced towards Modern Leagues. This may eventually be a good thing for Rebellion Booster Pack sales.
Results of Purchasing 30 Ultimate Chests
10 Ultimate Chests of the same batch are worth 1 Legendary Draw. Getting at least 1 Legendary Card from 10 Ultimate Chests is enough to assure oneself that they got a great deal. As evident above, I did not have that luxury this time. That is the problem with trying out one's luck. Since I already have many Max Level Cards including some Legendary Cards, it is difficult for me to complete my Chaos Legion Reward Card Edition with what I earn by playing the game. As of now, there is no other way to get these Cards either.

The Rental Market has expanded to Soulkeep and @peakmonsters is already supporting it on their UI. There are likely other markets that have implemented Soulkeep Markets. I have not added any new listings in a long time and Soulkeep may get me to get back in to Renting Cards. I opened 111 Nightmare Packs

At current prices I am earning less than $28 per month in SPS. If we see the All Time Highs of 2021, the same SPS will be worth over $4200 (enough to cover basic expenses for an year for me). There is no guarantee that the same level of euphoria will be reached. I do not have a crystal ball. What I can do is to take a look at the developments and see where the trajectory is going at.
When the game started out, there were no Token and only after few years of gameplay we started seeing DEC and later SPS. There was a time where the social media following of the project was a merely a few thousand users and growing at a snail pace of few users added everyday. There is proof of all of this in the reports that were made in the early days by the @steemmonsters account. Over time, we managed to blow up and become the #1 DAPP in the entire world for many months.
What makes you think that the same feat cannot be repeated once more? It will be difficult; but not impossible. Once there are more capital inflows, things will start to look better. We already have strong fundamentals to warrant new investors and players. What is left is better marking + waiting.
