Renting gold cards is as good as ever
Heads up! Stacking +10% DEC per alpha/gold card in your active team is a big deal. I'm getting 50 dec at only 1300 rating by having alphas and golds out on the field. 20 more DEC than the usual 30 I would get using a normal team. Renting these can quickly become very, very profitable. I can get some for less than 0.01 sbd a day.
I only own the Mech Goblin, Swamp Thing and Flame Imp
Steemmonsters market discoveries
After doing some math, it turns out 1 DEC has a floor price of $0.001 usd. This means every card who has it's price the same as it's converted DEC price is guaranteed to reap profit, since their upvote bot is up and running smoothly.
Considering how each card burns and how much DEC they are turned into, commons go for at least 0.015, rares for 0.06, epics for 0.30 and legendaries for 1.50. Double as much for alphas then multiply by 50 if it's a gold foil. This is why I bought my Swamp Thing for $15. It will be profitable no matter what.
Got it for $15
Truth be told, I'm holding on to that Swamp Thing until steem prices go down. Then I'll turn it into essence and buy an upvote from the sm bot. Meanwhile, I can try renting it for really cheap. It's a useful level 2 gold foil epic, so somebody should get it eventually.

My entry on a gold Steemmonsters tournament
There was a challenge coming up for silver goild foil cards which I wanted to try. I've rented a few earth splinter cards from peakmonsters, but failed miserably, basically because I didn't rent enough cards.
The second match in my qualifiers had a 25 mana no-melee match. My team for it was like 4 critters meeting 17 mana. Terrible. Better prepare ahead next time instead of leaving it for the last minute.
Was it always this slow or does it pick up the pace every weekend?
Steemmonsters balance update
They say +2 HP is too dominant. I wouldn't know, this card is too expensive. I did rent one of these this one time though and it really did seem very strong. Too bad for the holders, but I'm extremely glad to see the team really does care about gameplay balance. official post

The site slowed down only for a few days. I'm trying to get my head around a lot of new details across many business areas I've covered myself with.
This is a tough and lenghty process. I always feel like a butterfly coming out of it's cicada when this phase of mine is done. It's very refreshing. Exhausting, but refreshing.
SM Guilds
Are you a community leader? How about reserving a guild spot on their official Discord? The new feature should be out very soon, since the main dev is remining people about it and getting their chat ready.
Maybe I'll make one for steemmonsters.club...

Neglect for everything non-steemmonsters
I got really hyped with all the SM-related stuff I've been doing, but this made me slack off in every other area.
