Let's dive into Splinterlands! I want to share my remarkable quest for better cards, and the hustle done to reach higher ranks! Let's talk about Glint and surprising cards that can turn the tides of the battle in your favor!

Splinterlands is the strategic auto-battler multiplayer digital-collectible trading card game on the Hive blockchain. Lots of fancy words so lets make it simple ... you try to create the most optimal 7-card deck to fight against opponents.

There are many ways to improve the winning rate and Glint earnings, but most of them are linked to better cards! The Battle Mages can get cards from packs, chests, brawls or buy them with Glint!

However, maximising older cards is still one of the best ways to improve gameplay and tactics! This is helpful, as the Battle Mage is improving the cards he knows and use most!

Once upon a time in the Splinterlands open 100 packs! I embarked into this quest in March 2021 and finally acheive it on February 2024! It took me nearly three years and a lot of hustle!

Why I think opening 100 packs is remarkable? Because I didn't crafted anything extraordinary within the Splinterlands realm! I am just a casual player and to earn and open 100 packs was like claiming Mount Everest! I started at basecamp and made my way to the summit!

Every climb is difficult, and this is why some will stop half-way or "die" trying. Let me tell you that PVM never gives up, maybe sometimes just doing tasks in sloth mode!

Since the start of this year, I still collected Chaos Packs and as 2024 comes closer to an end... I opened and upgraded my deck!

I had 18 packs to open and share with my allies, and will unwrap them in bulk to make it easier. Nothing amazing in the first four packs, only six rare cards that I already had for ages!

I fought countless battles, lost hundreds of duels, grinded and worked hard but I made it! Every journey and every success is easier with friends, and I am grateful for all the support I've got from the Splinterlands community! Yes battle mage... you as well!

Some of the packs were won at raffles or activities, while some where gifts from my Splinterlands frens' and guild members. I unwrapped four more chests and the result was bland AF, with four rare cards inside.

Everyone knows how badly the Splinterlands were shaken as after the Chaos Legion cards were added, but there are used less since the Rebellion update.

This was my opportunity to lower the gap between me and the early players... this was my time to to something remarkable and improve my gameplay!

The next set of packs had a better rare rate, with eight of them hidding in the four packs I oppened. This new batch helped me do few upgrades, but I was still sad and dissapointed that not even an epic was found.

This felt a bite bad pointless, and proceded with the last six packs I had! As disapointing as the previous twelve packs I opened!

One rare card per pack, and nothing more than that. The odds were good but the drops were horrible! Time to move on!

Took me three years to open 100 packs... and I felt born again! The pressure was off and I enjoyed the battles without any target that needs to be acheived!

Opened 18 more packs this year, as an extra, and from now I will focus on Rebellion packs! Wanna see a Born-Again battle? Or you want to see a battle where I used to gladiator cards? Why not both?

I dived into a battle that had both Born-Again and the Are-You Not Entertained? battle rules, giving the rebirth ability to all ... including that extra gladiator card. The 49 mana pool was generous so I went for two gladiators after using Franz Ruffmane as summoner.

Goblin Mech: Melee tank with Piercing

Marisol Contuma: Melee with Reach

Djinn Renova: Caster with Strengthen

Sola Ranjell: Caster with Tank Heal

War Pegasus: Ranged with Flying and Shatter

Pelacor Arbalest: Ranged with Double-Strike

The main focus was on dealing damage quick and making sure my units are being one step ahead. Djinn Renova boosted everyone's health, and the War Pegasus was ready to shatter that armor that could make the battle longer.

The easily enraged Drybone Barbarian can create havoc, so he had to be taken down fast. The Shieldbearer job was to make my job difficult, attracting a fair share of the damage. Another issue that needed immediate attention was the ranged threat from the archers, with a damage boost from General Sloan.

It started badly, with Marisol enraging the Drybone Barbarian, which had a deadly blow on the armorless Goblin Mech. The Goblin was "born-again" and watched as my War Pegasus shattered the Shieldbearer's shield. Then the Drybone got healed... but so did the Mech. Round one ended without any causalities, as all twelve monsters where somehow alive.

Not the same thing can be said about round two, as the Goblin Mech died... again. In return I eliminated the Shieldbearer, and Sola Ranjell took care of the resurrected tank. She tasted the sweet bloodlust and enhanced both her beauty and powers!

This battle was far from over! Thankfully Marisol was the faster horseman on the battleground, and her blow sent the Drybone Barbarian in the graves! He came back in zombie form but Sola Ranjell's binding light eliminated the threat! Both my gladiators took a bloodlust pill, and helped each other with a heal and a hug!

Marisol lived to fight another round when the opponent's Pelacor Arbalest missed his second arrow. My own Pelacor Arbalest wasn't more precise, missing both tries on the War Pegasus.

Sola added another trophy on her kill-list, while Marisol couldn't avoid those arbalest's arrows! She came back to life as bright as the sun, galloping towards the Time Mage. Marisol turned into executioner and tasted that sweet bloodlust again. She even got out of the danger zone after Sola's heal raised her health to a decent level.

Sola transformed into a sniper, as her magical power was high enough to one-shot anyone on the battlefield. The Venari Crystalsmith made no exception, turned into dust from a magic arrow! See the full battle here!
