Look at this:
Never did I expect at the beginning of the season that I would be able to climb so high on the ladder. But this also has a disadvantage. I am now running into players will fully loaded and powered decks. Summoners of level 8. So it is losing at lot without a change, hoping to bump into a player which has a equally loaded deck.
But I will not complain. Knocking open the door of Diamond II will give me an extra 15 reward cards at the end of the season, which did make it worth it.
Also the great thing about the Diamond league is that my rating won't drop so much as compared to the gold leagues. Which will make the start of the next season more rewarding.
The highest rating achieved was 3258, which did gave me the impression that I would have a shot a Diamond I but this hope has vaporized :(
My hit rate at the moment is: 611 wins in 1193 battles. A little bit more than 51%.
Last season I did end with a rating of 2260 and on rank 877. This record will be pulverized.
At the moment my rating is 3002 and I am rank 504.
Daily rewards
Well I could have been rewarded better but won't complain.
This is what I did get in from my last 2 daily quests:
| Card | Splinter | Rarity | Number of cards | Value | Total Value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wood Nymph | Earth | Common | 7 | $0.05 | $0.35 |
| Creeping Ooze | Neutral | Common | 3 | $0.07 | $0.21 |
| Rusty Android | Neutral | Common | 3 | $0.02 | $0.06 |
| Vampire | Death | Common | 4 | $0.03 | $0.12 |
| Sea Genie | Water | Common | 2 | $0.02 | $0.04 |
| Highland Archer | Neutral | Common | 2 | $0.03 | $0.06 |
| Flame Imp | Fire | Rare | 4 | $0.05 | $0.20 |
| HobGoblin | Neutral | Rare | 2 | $0.05 | $0.10 |
| Mushroom Seer | Earth | Rare | 2 | $0.05 | $0.10 |
| Daria Dragonscale | Dragons | Epic | 1 | $0.39 | $0.39 |
Most of the card were used to power up my collection. But the Daria card has been sold. I do find it at the moment more important to balance out my deck to be able to stay into Diamond III or to reach it once again next season.
So 22common cards, 7 rare cards and one epic! The total value is: $1.63 or around 5.82 steem.But that would only have value when I decided to sell the cards.
New Booster Pack
Also bought a new booster pack yesterday evening to try out how #smartmonsters do work.
The boost pack did cost me 7.566 steem. In return I did the powerup of 0.757SP by Steemmonsters and on top of that I did get a refund of 0.076 steem from smartmonster.
So I better would have purchased all my pack via this service.
The content of the booster pack was medium but I did get a new Zintar Mortalis. Only need 9 more to power it up to level 5 :)
That is it for now!
Cheers,
Peter
