Bronze league? More like n00b league.
After a few months of playing splinterlands and several 1,000+ rating performances in my first seasons, I am clearly a Seasoned Veteran who can not be stopped and will WIN EVERYTHING.
This is what I tell myself to justify buying more packs... anything for more packs.
OK here's the deal. I am close to silver, very close. In theory I could buy a gold card or two and quickly hit silver league but what is the fun in that? Instead I'm going to open packs until I hit silver, or until I run out of HBD... whichever comes first.
so close... about 150 power away.
Turns out there's a new airdrop available so let us see if my amazing 4 packs means I can win one of the new card. It's basically guaranteed for a legend like me.

Oh well -- time for packs! To start things off I purchased two packs. Time to crack em open.
Pack one:
Opening now...
YIKES, that is not an exciting pack. Nothing to see here folks. NEXT!
Pack two:
An un-opened pack, full of possibility and wonder. I love it.
OPENING!
Yikes times ten thousand. Absolute crap packs I am sad to say. Just boring commons and the most basic of rares.
Checking up on the power rankings now, I am 25 power away. That is like one card away. So close yet so far, those booster packs just needed one more rare and I might have made it.
Easy way to fix that... let's open another one.
At least for now HBD prices are favorable and I can buy even more packs per HBD than usual.
Pack number three, let's go!
OPENING!!!!
YEP YEP YEP YEP YEP!!!!#!@$!@#%^! This is my first time opening a golden card from a pack. Since I've only opened seven packs total in my life so far, that is very lucky! WOOP WOOP
We gonna be silver super easy now. I have to double check my collection to even believe it was real, did I actually pull a gold foil card just now??
INDEED. This gold foil card has less than 1,000 in circulation. I just have a hard time believing that early set gold foils won't go up in demand over time, I feel like they are very underrated. Happy as hell to add this to my collection.
With that, I am squarely placed into the Silver league. BIG HYPE!!
It will be a long time before I get to higher levels of Silver. For now, I celebrate Silver III. Maybe one day I will look back and laugh at how little my collection was at this point, but right now it seems epic.
