Splinterlands Social Media Challenge: Baron's Bounty Bitcoin Halving Promo Event

avatar
(Edited)


Splinterlands is a pretty complicated game and there are some interesting battles with all the options available. This is a part of the weekly social media challenge for Splinterlands. This week, it's about the ongoing Baron's Bounty Bitcoin Halving Promo Event that Splinterlands is running.

Baron's Bounty Bitcoin Halving Promo Event

This event is Splinterlands way of celebrating the Bitcoin Halving Event and they are doing so by introducing two new promo cards for people to purchase. These cards will have the rare halving ability that reduces an enemy's damage by half. It's a very useful ability and it's too bad that the only monster that I use somewhat regularly with it is Arkemis. These two new cards are called Baron Fyatt and Henchling Enforcer.

Baron Fyatt

Baron Fyatt is a magic monster that starts with the halving and scattershot ability. At level 3, it learns ambush, and at level 4, it learns blind. It's a pretty good card to use and this card only cost 4 mana to use. It is also a duo fire and death element so you can use it more often in fights. Overall, it looks like a great card to have and it can easily cut down your damage early on when it can ambush the enemy.

Baron Fyatt will cost 31,250 (31.25k) DEC/Credits per BCX and there is a 4% chance of a gold foil. A VOUCHERS can be used to decrease the cost of the card. According to this post, using VOUCHERS and DEC will drop the cost of Baron Fyatt to about $25 per card.

Henchling Enforcer


Henchling Enforcer is also a duo-element card for water and life. It's a ranged monster and it starts with the halving ability. At level 4, it learns true strike, and at level 7, it learns camouflage. With a mana cost of 6, I also think it's a really good card to have and you never have to worry about it missing after level 4.

Henchling Enforcer will cost 3,125 DEC/Credits per BCX and there is a 4% chance of a gold foil. VOUCHERS can also be used to decrease the cost and it will cost about $2.40 per card using the same post that I linked before.

These are based on points and you get 1 point per DEC/CREDIT spent. VOUCHERS do not count towards the points. There are also some bonus rewards for those who land in the top 200.

Conclusion

It's an interesting event and I think out of the two cards, Baron Fyatt seems to be the better card. I haven't decided if I will buy any of the cards but Baron Fyatt just seems a bit too expensive for me. I might just sit this one out though but both cards look useful. I just think that Baron Fyatt at level 3 is amazing. I just don't have the funds to get one over there right now.

Do you plan on participating in the Baron's Bounty Bitcoin Halving Promo Event? Why or why not?

I don't know if I will buy any. I have been thinking about it but Henchling Enforcer doesn't look like that great of a card if its 6 mana cost and Baron looks good if at level 3 or higher. I just don't know if I want to dump that much into Baron as I would have to move around some assets.

Since Baron Fyatt is a good card, I think you should try your best to go for it before the promo ends

It's a great card but buying 6 of them to get them high enough level sounds like a hefty investment.

This one is strictly for the whales as I don't think that many people have a stash of cash at their disposal. The market is still not okay yet and, I wish the sales goodluck. Indeed the Baron just seem expensive but great card

Yea. I agree with the outlook. I wish the sales goes well also but I think I might just skip out on this one.

I haven't bought any so far. Baron at 6BCX seems like a pretty tough investment and Henchling doesn't look that great at low level due to the mana cost.

Yes, I saw the possibility to use the low price of Hive to build Splinterlands cards asset.
In the bull run I hope to sale at good price many cards that are not too useful in the battlefield.
