Thank you all so much for reading an old man's ravings about games and crypto, I am working on my OMF financials built around my uneducated trading plays, but that is a story for another day. So let us take a look at my gains (as yes, even after everything there are still gains)

Last season I started with my Peakmonster value at $47.05 and it the previous story is HERE (publish0x)

So now lets us look at the transaction values by taking all my transactions, putting them into excel and then working out the individual items, please keep in mind that the DEC and card values can fluctuate quite heavily sometimes. When I looked at my total on Monday it was $55 for list and I normally use list so that I have a silver lining :)

1. Tournaments - total gain 2914 DEC

Tournament Entry Fee -91 Tournament Payout 3005

2, General play and season rewards - total gain 3565 DEC

Quest Rewards 274 Ranked Season Rewards 477 Ranked Battle Reward 2813.977

There it is...6479 DEC and 500 Coins from a referral, for a total gain (seeing as I put all my winnings back into the game) of around 2000 power which puts me in Silver 2, Unfortunately I am down money by adding cards but also stuck in a conundrum of gaining power to get higher or just bite the bullet and choose to stay in Bronze...(yeah, that is an option for some unfathomable reason) and have a chance at some packs even though some 100k power players have the same idea. There is so much chaos in that system that I am just plodding along till they can sort out how to keep DAU's and stop higher level players from dominating lower levelled players and therefore making the game a lot less fun for them.

With all of that out of the way, lets take a look at preferred plays, I am going to place a few matches below so that I can try to give you an idea on how it matches up to different opponents. All of this will hopefully help you make more informed decisions about your buying/lending etc. 

Dragon/Earth vs Death- Dragon Earth vs Death - We were closely matched but there was one moment that made it happen and I love it when I have a creature with Sneak or Snipe just wrecks a legendary so that they have no effect. Whilst there are more random misses (that is a good thing for newer players) it also makes it difficult to justify some of your lineups. 

Dragon/Death - Dragon/Death vs  water - Here it was such a random match that I will just leave it for you to look at. I usually prefer the Dragon splinter seeing as it gives so much more variety to your choices after restrictions, always have to try and remember the individual level caps...it does keep it interesting as long as we all have the same timer ;) 

Earth vs Earth - Eastwood vs Lyanna, She is so strong and I have lost so many battle against her, and here I 'cheesed' it big time and I really used anything but this for the last 6 battles followed by what happens when you Leech 44 Rating points in one go Take The Win.

Still enjoying the game as a whole and the base play is a lot of fun when you get to mess around with different builds, now just to get enough together so that I can get a few more higher level summoners up and running.

See you on the battlefield
