As I continue to recover my my resent health disruptions, I bring to you my new round of SPL Chaos Legion airdrop cards I am thrilled about. Today's lucky draw was 9 regular versions and 1 gold foil version of Spirit Hoarder. This card looks killa!

Image Source

I wasn't able to get quite enough for a max level fusion (9 total regulars), but I was able to level up one to a level 3, leaving the few extra at level 1. I just rented all of these cards on Peakmonsters, but am looking to max level-up once I get my hands on a few more additional editions.
I am starting to feel a little better, but my throat is still scratchy and soar from the ordeal... here's to good health, and catch you on the next round!

So I got dropped on!.. The good kind, opposite of seagulls bombin' your car. During the first round of this "spreadsheet group-buy dumbo-drop", I hit 2 cards that also gave me 2 gold foils! Lira the Dark & Iza the Fanged:
In addition to the gold foils, I also received a GRIP of each type of the corresponding regular versions of each of these cards. I received 12 Lira's and 14 Iza's respectivly, and obviously plus the 2 golds... so that makes a grand total of 28 airdrop cards!

Tips & Tricks


To Rent or Not to Rent? - To Fuse or Not to Fuse?

Now I must make the difficult decision on whether I should fuse/level-up all these cards, or rent a bunch of them as level 1's, as I do with my Pelacor Mercenaries. I often find it easier to rent, and often times obtain more DEC profitability when renting many lower level versions of the same cards for cheaper, than putting all my eggs in one basket with a fully leveled up rental card. Other factors at play of course, so do your dilligence on each situation/card-type before deciding to fuse... "you cannot un-ring a bell".

After about the first 24 hours of the Chaos Legion general sale initiation there have been 6.13 million packs sold out of 15 million total, and 2 million or so have been opened. This rate technically holds true to my original prediction of these packs selling out in about 48 hours, although considering some of those were from the presale, and the bearish state of the rest of the market, I do not think all packs will be sold in this timeframe. My new prediction is these packs selling out in the first week to 8 days.

Image Source

If you haven't gotten your pack purchases in, now is the time. If you have however, it is most certainly the right time to scoop a bunch of SPS at a super-discount of about $0.15 a pop! All my extra liquidity is pumping towards this, and my goal of obtaining a ChifiBots presale spot. Stacking SPS now should boost your Splinterlands future 5-10 fold, and in multiple ways. In addition to game governance and voucher-drop potential, SPS/vouchers could be the ONLY way to obtain card packs in future set releases - just another prediction right? There will be more governance on packs sales in the future, using SPS stake for this seems like an obvious solution for mainstream scaling.... and Splinterlands is certainly mainstream-adoption ready at this point.

@Aggroed also announced that there will be additional LP rewards on top of the already attractive APR returns, current token dividends, and in some cases those juicy juicy SPS airdrop points! By adding 0.25% fees to all liquidity pool transactions on Tribaldex, the fees will be passed along to all the liquidity pool holders as an additional BEE reward dividend each day. This change will be installed in about 8 days from now, so if you were waiting on a catalyst to get into LP's, this is it. To profit even further, get in as much as you can before the fees start next week. Click here to travel to @aggroed's post on the matter for more info.

As we all prepare our chips for the Chaos Legion regular sale, I want to remind everyone to keep a positive mindset in the face of a tanked market. Remember how much abundance can be generated from our interactions with the new set, as opposed to focusing on how much more could have been generated. It is all fate, and only what can be can be, what we are ready for we will achieve here... no more, no less.
I also include a many Chaos Legion presale pack openings, and one Rising Star pack opening in the video.

You read that title correctly, I am seemingly in the same spot in Rising Star as I am with my music career in REAL LIFE currently. Although I have played many support slots in the past (along with headlining one of my own shows), this feels eerily appropriate. I am also not actually in my hometown like I am in the game, since I moved 3000 miles away from there nearly 9 year ago for many reasons including getting more music support, which I do.
While I have high hopes for the expansion of the music I create, I also hold hopes for an @ELAmental card to be minted in the Rising Star game (and maybe include some of my music too) when the time is right.

While it is true that I once bought and opened a couple Alpha/Beta packs, those are the only packs I ever touched (still have a couple of them too). During the presale I was able to knab 60 packs (for the price of 50 and vouchers) plus a Doctor Blight by joining a pool of folks pitching in together via @cardauctionz.

I will detail the finer points of my pizza summoner idea in a later post after I speak with the team.

Our pool-group actually ranked isn't he TOP 6 of all packs bought! Since achieving the award of creating a custom card, I have heard that there is talk of creating a #hivepizza summoner card! I would love to be a part of that discussion/design and support the idea officially. I really feel like a Master Splinter/Ninja Turtles pizza reference is at play here - I have been trying to figure out who to speak with about this (comment below please).

This isn't even close to what my vision is for this, just a funny example:

Image Source

Today is my first Chaos Legion Pack openings, my first ever published openings, and only my second time ever opening #Splinterlands packs. I will be doing more of these as time progresses. Let's see what abundance 5 packs bring us:

Let me know what you think about the cards I got in the comments. Happy hunting!

In Case You Missed it!

@itzninjafool recently announced/launched his SBT project. This Splinter Battle Token is intended to be used for tipping Splinter opponents after a good battle. All you have to do to get the 1 million tokens in your account is to comment on @itzninjafool's post by clicking this link. The only thing he is asking is that you actually start distributing the tokens via tipping in the manor he discusses (for battling), so those who receive this airdrop can begin spreading the currency through the ecosystem. I personally have a buy order up on Hive.Engine for 2 million more to help support the cause.
The airdrop amount of one million tokens is only until the first tier of distribution is complete. After 500 million tokens are dropped on the community, the airdrop amount will half every so often (500,000 tokens, then 250,000 - etc.) until all the tokens are distributed. So if you want to participate, you will get the most tokens for tipping by commenting now, before the first halfing. MANY accounts have already signed up. If you play Splinterlands and have not yet come across this project, well... this post is for you. I hope this helps some folks... Blessings!
This project is not to be confused with the #BATTLE token - that is a separate project.

For more detailed info about the project - click here for @itzninjafool's update post about SBT.

Welcome to the aftermath of last night's Splinter-Voucher madness! After a few trades during the mad scramble for vouchers in the last several minutes last night, I was able to get 50 vouchers over to a collective pool of players that placed in the final top 6! Super stoked to be a part of Splinter-history in this fashion, and hopefully will be able to join a discussion of what the created card should be (Pizza-Splinter anyone?!). I am also looking forward to my guaranteed Doctor Blight!

Image Source Today's video is all about my thoughts and first impression of the newer Rising Star game - the game where you get to have a virtual NFT based music career. As an actual musician, I find this game fascinating, and would love to petition for there to be an @ELAmental emcee card minted with high stats and low quantity when the time is right and I have a perfect photo ready for the graphic. Is there a way to manifest this idea into reality?

Image Source I really like the interface of the game, but am having trouble figuring how to use anther character card besides the standard "Busker" you start our with - I do have other cards to use. If you have the answer to this question, please reply in the comments below. I also already purchased a Juan Up card, and plan on getting a few more... but would love to know how to actually play with the card.

Image Source @Flauwy is currently holding a Rising Star tutorial contest where you will have a chance to win a Juan Up Rising Star card for your collection. All you have to do is write a post that explains the game in easy to digest detail for newer players like me attempting to learn the game. The contest will still be active for one more day, so get your submission in while you still can! Happy Holidaze!

Today's video discusses the advantages of trading high priced Untamed Packs for additional Chaos Legion regular sale funds, the obviously anticipated bull run of Hive, incoming airdrops from SPK Network/3Speak and a brand new NFT PVP blockchain game, and the future utility incentive for vouchers.

Source - - Source - - Source While I realize that Untamed packs will easily sell for $200-300 USD later down the line, a current price of $110 is hard to pass up considering the situation at hand. I just sold 10 Untamed packs for $110 a piece (received for $16 a piece on Hive.Engine months ago).

That is an extra $1100 towards Chaos Legion packs that will sell for $4/pack upon release, and are already selling for double that price on Hive.Engine prior to the actual set release... so imagine what the price of CL packs will be a week after they sell out... how about a month? - Easily a 5-20x... I cannot say the same for Untamed packs in the next month, the percentage increase is much more in the favor of Chaos Legion packs. I estimate CL packs will sell out no more than 48 hours after the regular sale start, and as little time as under an hour... if the server doesn't crash from a overloads of simultaneous transactions.

Image Source There are a ton of reasons Hive is just now at the beginning stages of a likely long bull run, (which I will detail more on my @ELAmental account soon), such as something I call "The Token Rush", and 1:1 Hive/HP airdrops coming for SPK Network Larynx Miner Tokens with 3Speak AND a new blockchain game - set to snapshot on the same block.

Image Source Obviously all the Splinterlands/Chaos Legion influx will cause some Hive value increase as well, and the more all this collides together, the more the market cap rank climbs, and the more day traders and higher-dollar long term investors will take notice of the trend, pumping Hive even further. We could see Hive between $3-6 in no(w) time. Hive is also a safe place to hold crypto right now in this plummeting market

In addition to selling off Untamed packs, I also include selling off my vouchers for additional Chaos Legion funds... and while some may not understand the current high price of $23+ usd per voucher, the unannounced future in-game utilities of vouchers may cause this price to be severely undervalued... the mystery card is a great way to drive up price... Splinterlands should make an actual Mystery card to commemorate the theme of this brilliant reoccurring marketing strategy.
