Analysis --> 9th full season in Splinterlands

The end of the 1st season of the new rewards system has come. I know it some people have mixed feelings about it but I can say I am definitely satisfied with the changes the team has made to the way the rewards work. They are absolutely far more rewarding for people in Silver and Bronze. The higher leagues might indeed need some additional tweaking but I am sure that people will report quite satisfying results as far as EOS chests are concerned in Gold, Diamond and Champion as well. So here's what I got from my 72 Silver I chests:

10 Legendary Potions;
10 Alchemy Potions;
460 DEC;
1 Chaos Pack;
a total of 29 cards - more notable of them - Djinn Biljka, GF Pelacor Conjurer, GF Pelacor Deceiver;

So not too shabby at all. I think it is more or less in line with the % distribution of rewards for Silver.

All the data in the sections below has been obtained from HERE

I played of ton of matches this season because of the new reward system, and even though it is still positive, my win/loss ratio has taken a significant hit. That's normal though since apart of the 1st day when I tried to climb as much as possible so I used all my splinters, the rest of the days I more or less just spammed the daily focus, and as we know spamming the daily focus is often the worst strategy.😁

I've been signing up for so many tournaments it's not even funny, what's not even funnier is that I can barely fit them in one screenshot anymore.😁 The total reward amount of 96 SPS is the highest I have achieved so far. I think I my net earnings are about 60 SPS or so.

The reward figures are relatively accurate. Some rewards, such as the JUMBO packs from Sprint Training are not listed though.

The amount of cards received this season is about 2X than what I got last season. This is obviously due to the new rewards system so I cannot say I don't enjoy this aspect of it.😃

Even though I played a lot more battles, I got about 300 DEC from winning than what I got last season. This is probably due to the fact that I was often playing with around 40% ECR. It is hard to let it rest with the way the daily focus works.

Last but not least as far as this account is concerned - the SPS Report. I have been trying to both increase my airdrops by buying additional packs and hodling them, and buying SPS so I can enter more and more tournaments.

I currently get about 12.1 SPS per day from airdrops and 3.50 SPS from staking - so a total of ~ 15.60 SPS, which is pretty good but can get even better... 😁

Let's see how the new system treats the poor ol' Bronze players or in this case my poor Bronze alt account.😁 Here's the breakdown of the screenshot containing 75 Bronze Chests:

10 Legendary Potions;
18 Alchemy Potions;
193 DEC;
a total of 22 cards - no legs or GFs (which is expected);

So again the rewards are in line with the % distribution provided by the team.

Even though I also just spammed my daily focus splinter on this account this is actually my highest rating and best win/loss ratio on this account in Bronze. I must say I did rent adequate cards each and every day. I did not splurge on any OP legendary summoners or something but I did spent at least 15-20 DEC on rentals which can get you pretty good cards for 1 day.

So last season I got 3 rares and 3 commons. This season I got 65 Common cards, 13 rare cards, 5 Epic cards... The difference is so huge I don't even know what more to add. The numbers speak for themselves.😎
