An era of positive news for @splinterlands is upon us along with the positive trends in the overall cryptocurrency market. I was predicting sideways movements for the last few months and now I have changed my outlook and look forward to an uptrend. I do not expect a parabolic price increase until we reach the later part of 2024. We may even experience a "Sell The News" event near the BTC Halving. It is not guaranteed to happen. But it is prudent to be prepared. Risk managements one of the most important parts about being a trader. This applies whether you day trade, swing trade or HODL for the long term.

Chaos Legion is Underrated

The price of Chaos Legion Packs have fallen to such a low level at the moment. They are trading at $0.72 and this is due to the relative oversupply of the Packs. I expect to see a day where 15 million Packs is not enough supply to match the demand. That day could be at least an year away. None of this means that Chaos Legions Cards are bad Cards. They are only available abundantly and Card Burning will not happen for many months to come.

2 Legendary Cards in 1 Pack

I always make sure to use Legendary + Alchemy Potions when opening Packs. It is too much of a wasted opportunity to open a Pack without doubling the chance to receive Legendary and Gold Foil Cards. Gladius Cases use Blood + Power Stones; but the concept is the same.

As you can see, I have enough Cards to reach Level 3 for Corpse Fiend and that is exactly what I did. Level 4 has the best Stats, but I have only few Cards that ever reached that level. I should try to slowly increase the number of Max Level Cards in my Collection. It is not an easy job to go through the Leveling Up at the Diamond League Level. I barley manage to reach Diamond League near the end of a Season for few days.

Most of the time I prefer to use Season Rentals. It theoretically minimize the amount of time the Cards have to remain in cooldown. I will have to wait a little longer to Level Up Conqueror Jacek to the next Level. Even after doing that, the Card will still be used mainly for Brawls or for being Rented out. There is no Land bonus for Summoners. It is best to avoid using Summoners on Praetoria based on the material I have read so far.

Land 1.5 Has a Release Date

After a great many delays I was expecting the possibility of Land 1.5 being released in December after Rebellion launch. I am very glad to know that there is a strict release date that the team is comfortable. I am a Maverick and I can use the Maverik's Server, but I have been somewhat busy these days and I have avoided testing the game. I don't have enough time to spend on it. I will see everything once Land 1.5 launch to the public. This is what "Mavericks" mean.

Sold Some STEEM

I cross post my content to STEEM and Blurt. They provide more places for readers to discover my content and in the case of STEEM, I usually sell them for $HIVE. I have practiced HODLing BLURT. There are good people trying to create a positive impact there and BLURT is a platform for free speech and I support that. In many situations, STEEM has helped me invest more in @splinterlands assets when I was in a dire need of more funds to invest.

End of GLX Staking Rewards

We have been through an year of Genesis League Sports. We have the Cards and team building. I have seen some basic gameplay. I'm sure @aggroed is working hard on building a strong game that has the potential to create another @splinterlands like experience on HIVE. I don't know if GLGT Rewards would keep coming or not. The current situation may turn more investors to unstake and sell when the bull market eventually create a positive move for the price.

I have written about HoloZing as potential killer DAPP for $HIVE few times before. I have faith in both projects. But we have to keep our expectations in check and expect to have some wrenches thrown in the expected plans. I have voted with my wallet, but I have not bet everything on them. Manage your risk wisely.

Happy Gaming! Happy Investing!
