How are you, Splinterlands warriors? This season I’m focused on holding my spot on the Silver leaderboard in Modern mode—and honestly, it’s been draining, both in terms of strategy and mental effort.
Just when I hadn’t even recovered from that fatigue, suddenly some news popped up that instantly reignited my excitement: a new event titled Eggstravaganza, released this February. The name alone already feels strange yet intriguing—like Eid, but in a fantasy world filled with magical eggs.
At first, I thought this was just another cosmetic event. Turns out, after trying it myself… it’s far more than just something “cute for decoration.”
The moment I saw the arena preview, it felt different. Pastel colors, soft lighting effects, and small glowing egg details made the battlefield feel like a living spring garden. Honestly, this is one of those moments where you’ll want to pause for a second before the battle starts—just to take in the view.
But of course, that beauty doesn’t last long.
Because once the first round begins… you immediately realize something is “off.”
Eggceleration: Small at First, Insane at the End
A new modifier called Eggceleration becomes the center of all this chaos.
All units gain +1 to every stat at the end of each round.
Sounds simple, right?
But in practice… it’s crazy.
Battles that usually end quickly now turn into endurance fights. You’ll find matches where weak units suddenly become monsters by round four. Tanks that usually fall fast turn into walking walls.
This is where players learn an important lesson:
in Eggstravaganza, the one who lasts longer… wins.
Skins, Glint, and an Irresistible Temptation
Now we get to the most tempting part—skins.
There are two types: Pastel, which are cute and colorful, and Bunnified, which… well, imagine your favorite character wearing a bunny costume. Weird? Yes. Interesting? Also yes.
Be prepared to go a little crazy in the shop, especially since Pastel skins are fairly “affordable” if you use Glint. It feels like end-of-season discount shopping—even though your wallet quietly suffers.
The real tension comes from the Ultimate Loot Chest.
A 3% drop rate for skins feels like pure luck. You’ll hope for a Bunnified skin… but often end up with a consolation prize instead. That’s where we learn another lesson:
in Splinterlands, hope is free… but RNG rules everything.
Impact on Players (Including Beginners)
In my opinion, Eggstravaganza is not only interesting for veteran players, but also for newcomers.
Why?
Because modifiers like this “level the playing field.” Players who don’t have overpowered cards can still win if they understand timing and endurance strategies.
The community also feels more alive. There are lots of discussions about the best builds, the most durable combos, and even “new meta” theories emerging because of this event.
If new players understand simple strategies like:
- Focus on survivability
- Don’t rely too much on early burst damage
- Take advantage of scaling each round
They can improve much faster.
Personally, I like this event—but not without some notes.
Pros:
- Fresh and unique visuals
- A modifier that truly changes gameplay
- Plenty of attractive rewards
Cons:
- Chest RNG can be frustrating
- Some battles take too long
But maybe… that’s part of the charm. Not everything has to be fast and instant.
Closing
If you’re planning to dive into Eggstravaganza, here’s one tip from me:
don’t rush. Enjoy the process, understand the rhythm, and let your strategy evolve as the rounds go on.
Because in this event, speed doesn’t always mean strength—
but endurance… is almost always deadly.
