For context, maxing out Foundation cards the traditional way is a serious grind. The distribution is tied to ranking rewards and quests, which can be slow and inconsistent. Once you hit the higher leagues, you’re almost entirely dependent on opening card packs to make progress—something that requires both patience and persistence. That’s why the raffle system immediately caught my attention. It offers a chance to bypass the grind and land a fully maxed card in one swoop.
Naturally, I was eager to see how the first raffle would play out. The anticipation built up as the draw approached, but in the end, luck wasn’t on my side—no prize drop for me this time. Still, I see a lot of potential here. Even though the outcome wasn’t what I hoped for, the concept is a clever engagement tool. Raffles give players an incentive to stay active and keep participating, which will likely prove critical for long-term retention in Frontier mode.
While my first experience ended in a bit of a dud, I’m optimistic. The idea of raffles adds an extra layer of excitement to the Frontier grind, and as they continue to roll out, I’m sure there will be plenty of chances to celebrate wins—both mine and those of the wider community.
In the end, Splinterlands has once again found a way to mix competition with community, and I’m looking forward to the next raffle already.
