Hello Splintermates and Hiveans,

Hope you are doing great. With a lot of happening in splinterlands it is quite difficult to catch up what the team is bringing in, but what catch my attention is the "Dragon’s Feast – A New Splinterlands Season Begins!" where there are 5 new jackpot cards that can be found in the reward chests (minor chest, major chest or ultimate chest). This chest can be bought by using glint that earned through playing ranked battles.

The good thing with this 5 jackpot cards are that they are unbound and no need to use scroll to unbound them . This is also the first time you can have a maxed card in a single chest, the reason is that you can have the chance to have black foil, gold foil arcane or black foil arcane in the brandnew jackpot cards.

HITTING JACKPOT REWARD CARD

Played modern ranked battles and earned glints. I then used 100,000 glints to buy 10 ultimate chest and got lucky to open one jackpot card . I then use 125,000 glints to buy 50 major chest but nothing is quite eye catching that i found mostly are the usual potions, merits, common and rare cards, entries and scrolls.

PLAYING IN THE BATTLEFIELD

In this 45 mana battle with shapeshift happens, super sneak and ferocity battle ruleset against a strong opponent and happen to use eternal tofu as his archon. I then used cryptic as my archon to test how shadowcomb duskrose perform and it is quite usable even at level 1 as it helps the team to illuminate the opponent.
