First post

21st February, 2020

I made my first "From Scratch to GFL" series post on steempeak.

My goal was to see how long would it take for me to earn myself a gold foil legendary in Splinterlands starting from a scratch account
The account only had two lvl 2 summoners delegated to it

These are the rules i set for myself

A bit questionable rules, but What the heck :D

In my first post I also stated that the cheapest GFL at the time was The Scale Doctor at $39.75

Mid way trough the grind

Nothing really interesting happened

On my 40th post I had a collection value of $12 + 1000 DEC sitting on the account.
The cheapest legendary still being around $45 at that time.

Also congratulations to the Alpha Giveaway winner :)

First signs of GFL

15th of June, 2021

pretty much Year and a half later on post #66 my collection value reached the same value as the cheapest current GFL on the market.

My Collection value with that post was at $73.81 and the cheapest GFL on the market at that time was $72
I even said in that post that the currenct Cards marketcap was around $22 mil at that time.

I posted my #79 th post labelled "The end is near"
In that post I had Total account value of over $900 and the cheapest GFL being under $300

Where I am now

As of writing this section I haven't bought the GFL yet.
this is what the account looks like

DEC Value: $36.24
SPS Value: $45.65

And the cheapest GFL is only $227

Buying the GFL

21st September, 2021

It was really hard to sell some of my hard earned cards, but I am happy with the outcome.
$227.7 I payed for my GFL which is Wayyyy more than I thought I would have to pay when I started this series :D

This is to set thumbnail on Peakd, Wanted to make a simple childish thumbnail, but it didn't turn out that great. I am not the greatest at making thumbnails xD

haha thank you :)

I thought about going back to doing my random splinterlands posts (updates and general thoughts and ideas), since I don't have any series ideas for now.
(Well I had an idea to attempt going from 0$ to $500 while utilizing the rental market, but if I end up doing that I might do only to $100 at first).
after all #play2earn :D

Also I'm too lazy to post now. I need to collect some motivation to start posting again.

Gold cards are rare it is always a great investment to hold these cards as assets in the game.

Hopefully gold cards will be even more desired once lands get released :D

Is that scrap metal from TF2? Reminds me of several hundreds of hours spent hunting for hats with weird effects.
