Not quite at the end of the Ranked season at Splinterlands, but it's time to see my progress on maxing out my Rebellion soulbound reward cards. Time is running out too, since the next soulbound reward set has been announced. I'll keep a track of the deadline, even if it might be a little longer than that (Matt said 3-4 months): 3 months minus ~1 week: 16 or 30 Sep?
The remaining time is tight, especially considering the doubles which will increase in number. I already started to burn many of them for the goal of having the set maxed (to a high degree, I think at least one card will be almost impossible to max out: Olivia of the Brook - I have it at level 5 with another 1 BCX copy, and I'll likely stop here, once I max out the remaining epic card I still need besides that, 1 BCX needed there). Likely, I will ignore the Legendary card I still have at level 1 too: Death Ranger.
So, let's see what I did with the Glint this season.
I purchased 6 legendary draws (+1 pulled in chests), 15 epic draws, 74 rare draws, and 118 common draws. I have no Glint left. There are still almost 23 hours left until the end of the season at the time of writing, but I'm writing the update now because tomorrow I have another post scheduled.
That makes it easy to see how much Glint I earned this season (including the season rewards from last season). That makes it a total of 358,200 Glint used for draw purchases this season (+0 remaining in my stash for a total of 358,200). Last season I had a total of 383,800 Glint in purchases. That means I spent 25,600 less Glint this season.
Let's keep a table too, going forward:
| Season since New SB Set | Glint Used to Purchase Draws | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Season 5 | 363,200 | |
| Season 6 | 344,400 | -18,800 Glint |

Let's see what my current situation of the Rebellion SB set completion progress is so far:
| Season since New SB Set | Commons % | Rares % | Epics % | Legendaries % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Season 1 | 1 / 0 | 2 / 0 | 8 / 0 | 9 / 0 |
| Season 2 | 2 / 1 | 2 / 0 | 9 / 0 | 17 / 0 |
| Season 3 | 3 / 1 | 2 / 0 | 10 / 0 | 23 / 0 |
| Season 4 | 5 / 2 | 3 / 1 | 12 / 0 | 27 / 0 |
| Season 5 | 7 / 2 | 4 / 2 | 13 / 0 | 36 / 0 |
| Season 6 | 8 / 3 | 5 / 2 | 15 / 0 | 42 / 0 |
| Season 7 | 9 / 3 | 6 / 2 | 15 / 0 | 51 / 0 |
| Season 8 | 10 / 3 | 7 / 2 | 17 / 0 | 58 / 0 |
| Season 9 | 10 / 3 | 7 / 2 | 24 / 1 | 61 / 0 |
| Season 10 | 19 / 5 | 14 / 4 | 31 / 4 | 63 / 0 |
| Season 11 | 28 / 6 | 22 / 4 | 39 / 6 | 65 / 0 |
| Season 12 | 37 / 8 | 29 / 5 | 47 / 9 | 65 / 0 |
| Season 13 | 44 / 9 | 37 / 5 | 54 / 11 | 67 / 0 |
| Season 14 | 52 / 11 | 45 / 5 | 62 / 11 | 67 / 0 |
| Season 15 | 61 / 13 | 53 / 5 | 70 / 13 | 67 / 0 |
| Season 16 | 66 / 14 | 61 / 6 | 79 / 14 | 67 / 0 |
| Season 17 | 75 / 17 | 70 / 8 | 85 / 16 | 67 / 0 |
| Season 18 | 84 / 19 | 78 / 8 | 91 / 17 | 67 / 0 |
| Season 19 | 89 / 20 | 81 / 9 | 93 / 19 | 73 / 0 |
| Season 20 | 92 / 21 | 86 / 10 | 94 / 19 | 76 / 2 |
| Season 21 (current) | 95 / 22 | 91 / 11 | 95 / 19 | 80 / 0 |
That's +4% to the progress of legendary cards (and -2% to GFL, after burning my GFL), +1% progress to epic cards (and +0% to epic GF), +5% progress to rare cards (and +1% to the rare GF), and 3% progress to the common cards (and +1% to the common GF).
Last season I had 5/7 maxed epics and 2/12 maxed legendary cards, 2/12 maxed common and 4/12 maxed rare cards.
After this season I have 5/7 maxed epics and 3/12 maxed legendary cards, 4/12 maxed common and 4/12 maxed rare cards.
So, the only change in max level status was on legendary cards (+1), and on common cards (+2).
I will continue to push for legendary draws first, epics second (until I max out the one that has 1 missing BCX - Night Reaper; if I pull it, I'll focus on Legendary draws next until I buy all 10 of them), rare 3rd (because they are further from 100% than commons), and commons last (because they are the main beneficiary of cards from chests too).
I already burned a good number of duplicates, but no GF yet except the GFL. After I see if the GF cards are useful in survival or not for the short time I will play there, I decide which of them to burn too.
Here are the "before and after" snapshots for the Rebellion SB legendary cards, which are my current main focus. "Before" first:
2 at level 4 (max level), 9 at level 3, 1 at level 1
And now the current levels of the legendary cards...
My Rebellion SB legendary cards: 3 at level 4 (max level), 8 at level 3, 1 at level 1.
This season, 1 legendary card got upgraded to max level.
Perhaps a more relevant metric is the amount of Glint already spent compared to the total amount needed to max out the SB set (only regulars).
Here' s my situation:
Glint needed for a fully upgraded regular Rebellion SB set, w/o doubles:
8,790,000 Glint
Glint value of the cards collected so far (ignore GF and doubles):
7,749,950 Glint
Progress percentage:
88.17%
Estimated^ time to max out the RF cards (or GF, where possible):
4 more seasons (2 months, i.e. end-August)
^) estimation now includes tier advancement rewards (average last 3 seasons); estimation doesn't account for Glint wasted on pulling doubles of maxed out cards or GF instead of RF (where GF card level isn't high enough)
Last season's Glint value of cards collected: 7,332,650.
Difference: 417,300 Glint-worth of cards this season, including tier advancement rewards.
| Season since New SB Set | Glint-Worth of Cards (including Tier Advancement Rewards) | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| Season 7 | 414,550 | - |
| Season 8 | 368,400 | -46,150 Glint |
| Season 9 | 328,850 | -39,550 Glint |
| Season 10 | 388,350 | +59,700 Glint |
| Season 11 | 446,250 | +57,900 Glint |
| Season 12 | 330,600 | -115,650 Glint |
| Season 13 | 407,400 | +76,800 Glint |
| Season 14 | 344,400 | -63,000 Glint |

| Season 18 | 302,400 | +3,900 Glint |
| Season 19 | 375,800 | +73,400 Glint |
| Season 20 | 226,850 | -148,950 Glint |
| Season 21(current) | 417,300 | +190,450 Glint |
| Last 3 seasons' average | 315,516 |
