Focus rewards and the changes to get them

I have been on a collection binge like a small child and his first Pokemon cards. Since I have only just started the game its addicting to "want to catch them all" when you have a little to no collection. Chasing focus chests leads to Season Chests. At what cost is the question at hand? I am eating a daily loss of Dec to even compare to some of you. While the chests are enticing are they worth it. What I have noticed is Yes they are. For example you can spend 4$ on a pack of cards. and recieve 5x cards. Or i can spend 4$ in rentals and grind hard for the day and get 15 to 30 nice rewards. To me this is what makes Splinterlands a great game. In doing so we help keep the community moving and increasing the value of our own rewards. Now to see the rewards. I recieved 14 gold level chests for playing. Here they are.

To some this may not equate to much but i also recieved 14 season chests. To me this was very rewarding and gave me alot of value while helping maintain the value of what I recieved. The rewards seem to be better then before in focus chests which is why I believe the point system changed in accordance. I personally feel the game is more challenging and indicitive of a higher class of player. I am excited at the prospects of Splinterlands future. Til next time Chins Up Eyes Forward Heads High.
