Why Investing In Useful Splinterlands Cards Is Important
Hi Everyone
People use Splinterlands for many reasons. Some are pure investors and speculate card prices, hold assets hoping it will go up in price but some people like me who have been playing for 3+ years would actually get cards I think would be useful for my gameplay as ultimately, that would improve my DEC rewards each winning game. I do admit I lack in many areas as I didn't go all in with cards back in the days so I am trying to find ways to improve my teams as much as I can using the reward cards now and hopefully can improve it more when Chaos Legion comes out shortly. So today I would like to share the two reward cards I am loving at the moment, it has really changed some of my lineups for battles.
I have a life team and anything to do with tank heal I love. When Venari Crystalsmith came out, I was hoping to get them through chests but soon figured it will take forever to get to the level I want to so I ended up getting some gold versions of it first and then work my way up for the regular foil. When it first can out, I haven't seen many players using it but as time has gone by, people saw how good this card is for their line up and I start to see them more often. It is such a great addition especially as a reward card, now I am hoping to open more them in the coming weeks to hopefully get it up to level 5 or 6 at least.
The other card I am loving is Venari Bonesmith. I didn't have to think too much about it and immediately bought cards from the market and upgraded to level 4 so I can get the point ability. The only downside I don't like about this card is that it is a 4 mana card. It's ok with the two ability but when it comes to lower mana games, I can't use it often with my death splinter. I do try to change my lineup a little bit to work around it so I can use this card but it sometimes feel I try to make it happen rather than fitting nicely to the lineup. Remember win will get your valuable DEC which in turn will get you some good airdrop points so it is your best interest to use the cards best for your teams to get the maximum return.

Yes, the Venari cards are pretty awesome, especially because they're reward cards which can be drawn from chests. I still like Venari Wavesmith the most but the two you mentioned are nice for the life / death team as well. Good post btw 👍
Yes, some of these rewards cards can be very useful in many different rulesets. For me, the Pelacor Conjurer has probably been the biggest helper. I use that as my first card a lot. With good speed, flying, and magic reflect, I use it with Lorna Shine to soak up most of the opponents first round hits and oftentimes it survives into the 2nd and 3rd rounds allowing my backline cards to deal 2 or 3 hits each before they become endangered. I've won many battles that didn't look good when the lineups come up, only to almost completely wipe the other side without losing a card.
Then I was very lucky/fortunate, because nowadays I am in the Bronze league, and I received this card one month ago (in the middle of September):
I received a Venari Crystalsmith (Rare Life Monster) as a daily quest reward (2021.09.14).
Its value is greatly decreased since then. As you can see in my above mentioned post, it was worth $3.50 USD on that day, but today (on 2021.10.26) it is worth only $1.60 USD.
All cards when they first come out, the price would have been skyrocketed so which is why I start to look at buying them a few weeks in cos there are more on the market ....
Yes I like the look of that tank healer too! The 3 mana Earth Vanari rat thing looks pretty good for the money too!
I'm personally trying to stack a few reward cards thinking ahead to land, got 11 Harklaws already, and a few others lined up for purchase.
The value in this game does depend a lot on the cards one holds after all!
mother khala+divine healer+venari crystalsmith. flexing some "life" muscles here😅
The Water Venari is the good bargain for water splinters, since the card itself provide protect to all the friendly line :D
There are some fantastic cards in this latest batch of rewards. It'll be a while before I win enough to get them high enough to play with; just gotta resist the temptation to buy my way there early :)
