The Force Is Strong on HIVE - May The Splinterlands Be With You!

By PVM | Mind Puzzle | 27 May 2023


My Splinterlands journey continued in May, with more brawls, treasure chests, packs and another glorious season! I challenged myself to open 100 packs and one year later I am still going for this quest! However, I am getting closer and I opened packs 71 to 80

I started this challenge on the 27th of March 2022, and one year later I am still chasing a dream. As it goes... I will hopefully complete the task by the end of 2023!  Got some top cards, mainly from Gladius Packs!

Blinding light came out from one of them .... with legendary sunshine from Sola Ranjell! She came to the Splinterlands on the brightest night of the year ... the alignment of moons. Her powers are amplified by the two-bladed staff with burning light.

The last Battle Mage Secret was a nightmare! Was time for the critters to crawlers to be taken down! I realized there's no equal opportunities for battle mage secrets, playing 125 games since Thursday for this challenge! Not even once... not even once! This is why I had to adapt and play monsters with Opportunity!

The season started slowly, as I struggled to progress through Bronze ranks! Got two chests in the first day, and got one new card! Got a War Pegasus, not the common ones that prefer solitude! This "War Horse" has a long shard of bone that courses with celestial energy.

It got better throughout the season, and unwrapped another War Pegasus! I don't mind SPS gifts, but would prefer potions or cards. Why? Because I run out of potions and got some packs to open!

The Ferox Defender has become as common as the Witch of Warwick, dropping from treasure chests as often as rain in England. At least this time I found a gladiator summoner! 

Lobb Lowland is as good as a boxer as Tyson Fury! The Lowland gorillas are highly intelligent, muscle-bound apes and formidable pugilists. However, Lobb was different ... bigger, smarter and filled with earth magic!

Told you the Ferox Defender shows up to every party? Dude like loud music and ... heavy metal! Good day at the office, with 15 treasure chests and 8 cards inside. Even better as two of them had an epic rarity. Already added the Helios Matriarch to my deck, but the Ravenhood Warden was a new addition! 

The Ravenhood are an unkindness of ravenfolk that live in the Fenmoor Basin! This bird-looking creatures reminds me of the Arakkoa from World of Warcraft. They are fiercely territorial, and their Wardens serve as guardians of their land and people. Night Elfs made babies with crows? Hmm... things are getting odd!

It took me a while to get a proper winning streak and get decent rewards but when it happens... was EPIC! I've got the Helios Matriarch, the Will-O-Wisp and 4 more cards from 13 treasure chests! 

Rosa Phireth was the youngest matriarch selected by the other cardinals to head the Church of Helios. Took her a century to increased the church’s influence within the Gloridax Empire and her staff has the power to bend time to the will of its wielder.

The "will-o-wisp" is a type of death elemental that appears as a hazy ball of light. The combination of their pulsing, colorful appearance and haunting sounds has been known to cause a number of debilitating affects while mesmerizing their victims! And now... I have one in my deck!

The energy thing is like Marmite! You love it or you hate it! But ... is the Energy addition favorizing the top players? With 50 energy maximum, and one used for each battle, are the top players gaining an advantage? I think so! Will take me more to reach Silver, as I am now limited by energy recovery!
