Spinterland's Rent-A-Deck Project - Day 5
This is the post #5 on my new Splinterlands Rent-A-Deck Project.
The goal of this project is to see how strong of a Spinterlands deck I can build just from the earnings on posting about this project and playing the game.
Earnings Update
Day 4's earnings were the best yet. I managed to catch a couple nice upvotes from some #LEO celebs which helped a lot. I managed to earn around $5.50 which will go a long way in the rental market. Thanks to everyone who has supported this project with their up-votes!
Time to Go Shopping
No new advice on cards to get from the comments yesterday, so I was on my own to make some picks.
I decided it was time to get my Fire Summoner and picked up a 8th Level Malric Inferno. He will be the lead for when I want to go melee heavy.
I found a deal on a Level 10 Rusty Android at just $0.004 per day with no escrow. He came in at a whopping 20,000 power/dollar efficiency! The best by far of any of the cards in my deck.
I decided to pick up a Level 10 Parasitic Growth for $0.01/day. As a melee card he will go well with my Fire deck and still be very good in other decks.
Sticking with cards I use, I picked up a Level 6 Mischievous Mermaid to help strengthen my Water deck. Neat thing is I found a Alpha card that was the cheapest, so this card will help pay for itself when I use it.
Next, I picked up a Level 10 Kobald Miner for $0.02 per day. He wasn't great for power efficiency, but is a card I will get a lot of use out of.
I looked long and hard trying to find a Earth summoner but they are pricey so instead I decided to go for maximum power efficiency and picked up some real high level cheap cards.
Level 10 Wave Runner was a great power addition at a mere $0.002 per day. He was such a good deal I decided to put him on a 60 day contract.
A level 10 Level 10 Biceratops cost me $0.004/day.
I decided to pick up another magic card, but not just any magic card, a Level 6 Gloridax Magus! He added 12,000 power all on his own for just 0.01 cents/day.
After that I basically got tired of shopping! LOL. Seriously, I still had a $1.50 to go but decided to save it for tomorrows shopping.
Stats
With the addition of today's cards I am now in the Gold II League. Depending on my earnings for today's post I think I will be able to hit Gold I before the end of the season. I already have the rating so I just need some upvotes! Hint hint!
Rewards
Today I opened 6 chests (I was still in Gold III at that point) and managed to snag four more cards, including one rare. So far the rewards have been very good, I have picked up 11 cards in total since this project started.
My DEC earnings were very good too earning over 300 DEC again.
What Is Next
I still need to get a Earth Summoner and then pickup a few critical Earth monsters. After that I will continue trying to work on maximum efficiency.
I expect I will be able to get to Gold I tomorrow as I'm just shy of 30,000 Power from that level. From there the next stop is Diamond III! If I get another day like yesterday in post rewards I might be able to reach Diamond before the new season starts! That would be absolutely crazy.

I never use Rusty Android. Is he any good or is there any reason why you picked it?

He is not too bad at higher levels, and with all the magic folks use it is nice to send some back at them.
