I have been waiting to upgrade some of the cards in my deck. The first item I could think of was the Ettin Spearman. One good reason to upgrade this card now is because of the price of the card. I was able to grab the card for 0.01$ from the market. I already had around 20 cards with me which I used to upgrade the card to Level 5. After the upgrade, I thought why not purchase some more cards from the market and upgrade the card to level 6.
Currently, investing in splinterlands cards is one of the best investments for the future. Compared to all other games that are already present in Steem Blockchain, Splinterlands has been the most interesting one and the game that gives good returns to the players. I guess investing in this game can give a better future for the players. I know that I will not be able to match the big shots in the game who have already invested so much but I'm glad that I will at least be able to grow in the game slow and steady.
The card looks very good in Level 6 now. I'm also thinking of upgrading the card even further after upgrading the summoner. Without upgrading the summoner, there is no point in upgrading this card to a higher level. One good thing about this upgrade is that the card now gets 4 attacks and an extra health point. If we get a game rule where the monsters with low speed will attack first, this card can do wonders. Additionally, if there is a rule where we are allowed to use maximum mana, this can be a good addition to the battle formation.
As usual, I used MonsterMarket.io for this purchase and the website gave me a cashback. You can also use the site for your card purchases to get a nice 3% cashback for all your purchases.
