Hello, all friends, in the magical world of Splinterlands, another season has come to an end. It seems the flow of time never stops, and with the end of each season, a strange urge to start anew takes hold of me. As a regular player, this time of year, at the end of the season, is very important to me. Because it is the moment to receive the results or rewards of the hard work we have done throughout the season. This season was no exception. After the end of the season, I received several Giant Tokens or Glint Tokens as rewards. These tokens are very valuable in the current Splinterlands ecosystem, because with them you can now buy packs or draws of your choice from the shop.
I had accumulated several Glints in my account, the number being around 18,000. For a long time, I wanted to accumulate these Glints and open a big bang or a good quality pack. Usually, common or rare cards are available in small draws, but my goal was epic cards. Epic cards play a very powerful role in the game arena, and their quality is also very good. So I decided, this time I will not buy a common or rare draw, but I will directly buy an epic draw by spending 15,000 glints. There was a kind of excitement in my mind, because Iwasm spending so many tokens at once, I don't know what fate has in store.
When I went to the shop, the epic draw option was flashing. To buy this pack, 15,000 glints are required, which took me a long time to collect. You can see in the screenshot that I had 18,043 glints in my balance at that time. When I clicked to buy, a pop-up window appeared.
The, re I was asked if I wanted to use any potions or magic drinks. I had alchemy potions or potions to increase the chances of getting gold foil. I thought, since I was buying an epic card with my hard-earned glints, it would be wise to use the potions without taking any risks. If luck is on my side and the card comes out as gold foil, then it's okay. So I selected the option to use 10 alchemy potions and pressed the confirm button.
The moment after confirming was the most exciting. A mysterious purple card appeared on the screen and started shaking. At this moment, my heart started pounding. What card would come out? Will it be useful for my deck or card collection? Or will I get a card that will not be of much use to me? This pack-opening animation of Splinterlands is really cool. When the card was revealed with a purple glow, I saw that I had gotten an Earth element card.
The name of the card is Tandi Janda. The first thing that caught my eye after looking at the card was its amazing artwork. It is basically an Epic card, and it belongs to the Earth element. The picture shows a female hippopotamus warrior with a powerful bow in her hand and a sword on her back. There is a kind of determination and courage in her eyes. The game's graphic designers really deserve praise, because they make the character of each card very alive.
After receiving the card, I looked at its stats or powers. This level 1 card costs 5 mana. As a 5 mana card, its stats are quite balanced. Its attack power is 2, which falls into the melee or close attack category. Although the picture shows a bow in her hand, according to the game mechanics, it allows her to make melee attacks, which is quite intriguing.
Its speed is 2, which is not too high but not too low either. The best part is its defense or defensive power. It has 1 armor or armor and 5 health or life points. Having 5 health and 1 armor as a level 1 card means it can survive on the battlefield for quite some time.
I also looked at the detailed stats chart or table of the card. It shows that when the card is upgraded or leveled up, it will become even more powerful. For example, when it reaches the maximum level or level 6, its attack power will increase to 4, its speed will be 4, and its life will increase by 5. In addition, as the level increases, it will gain all kinds of new abilities or special powers.
The chart shows that when the level increases, it will gain three different special powers, which can turn the tide of battle. Although Earth element cards are usually famous for magic or magic, a powerful melee fighter or fighter makes the Earth deck more diverse and powerful. Especially when there is a battle ruleset or rule where only melee cards can be used, this Tandi Zanda card can be a trump card.
I am not disappointed at all to get this card after spending 15,000 glints. In fact, I am quite happy because it is an epic card and has many opportunities to upgrade it in the future. Since they are Soulbound reward cards, they cannot be sold in the market, but they are essential for increasing your collection and performing well in the game. It was a great experience to open an epic pack after a long time, fulfilling your hopes.
There will be wins and losses in the game, but these small achievements are what have made the Splinterlands game so popular with us. Hopefully, I will be able to win many matches using this card in the next season and move my rank further forward. Overall, this purchase and pack-opening experience was very satisfying.
