Even with decent decks, it’s really hard to compete lately lol.
Splinterlands is definitely one of my best accidental investments! I got the spell book early on but didn’t play much, but I did enter contests and won some alpha and beta packs that I opened and got some decent stuff. I’ve taken a break or two from the game but thankfully through time and playing, have gotten a decent deck that I think is good enough to get me some wins. Can’t complain there!
I think a cool part about it is certainly that you can get into it and just do things passively.
So even then it's hard alright, that makes me feel better (lol). Sharing struggles :) haha.
I love the fact that you can start playing, discover it's not for you or maybe real life needs your attention for a longer time, so no time to play and then you can still earn by renting the cards out and/ or the other options.
I currently can't find the motivation to learn more although I've noticed some cool earth cards from CL make my battles more pleasant :)
