Tracking My Winnings - Conclave Arcana - Season 159
Hey guys! I wanted to keep track of my winnings each season for both of my accounts so I figured why not turn it into a post and share it with everyone else?
Each season I'll report the amount of SPS I've won from both battle rewards (modern, wild, survivor, and brawls) as well as all the tournaments I played for that season on the two accounts.
From there, I'll keep a running average per season and extrapolate that over 39 total seasons to simulate what kind of value I will end up with after 1.5 years which should be around the time when 7th edition comes out, the set after Conclave Arcana.
For those that don't know, I have given my second account a max level of the following cards: Tofu, Cryptic, Squirrel, Lorkus, Elias Max Pruitt, and Nidhoggr for Archons and Rage, Kei, Venka, Mantaroth, and a level 5 Grimbardune Smith for units. You'll notice that these are all from the Rebellion conflict airdrop aside from Mantaroth and Smith, which are the Rebellion promo cards.
The rest of my alts deck is made up of Gold Foil Rebellion and Conclave Arcana cards which I've taken to a silver (now called Adept) level.
Since this is the first report, we'll only have 1 data point so let's dig in!
Starting with the main account we have 9,764 SPS from battle rewards. The 978 from Survivor Mode was left over from last season since obviously Survivor Mode was shut down for this season. I couldn't have earned any SPS from there.
What happened is on the last day two seasons ago I claimed my SPS and let the bot run down my deck but that put my claim on a 24 hour cooldown and then when the new season started, I started playing before I claimed again so rather than claim when I could and reset it, losing some data, I just kept it running.
After adding up all the tournament winnings for the main account we get 6,410 SPS.
My best win of the season was in the Victor's Modern Gold Invitational where I managed to finish 2nd place. Anytime you can finish in the top 4 you get the max payout for the tournament so even though I always want to win the whole thing, I am happy to get the top prize.
If we add my winnings from Battle Rewards to the Tournament Rewards we get 16,174 SPS this season for the main account.
Now I'm eager to see what my second account can do!
Since my alt account is not nearly as strong as my main the winnings are not nearly as high either. However, I was pretty happy with this considering the account finished in Champion 3 and I got as high as Champion 2 before dropping back down.
Because this account has Gold Foil cards it can play in all the regular foil tournaments as well as the extra gold foil ones it can qualify for.
After adding up all the tournament winnings we get 5,665 SPS.
I had a few strong performances this season including winning both the Ferexian Modern Silver Invitational GF and the Tidalring Modern Bronze Invitational GF.
These are my bread and butter as outside of some CL cards I don't have any wild cards so I'm glad I was able to win them!
After combining the winnings from Battle Rewards and Tournaments we get 11,312 SPS for Thoogen which I'm pretty happy with. That's a lot closer to my main accounts 16,174 than I thought it would be considering the difference in strength.
Now let's add them together and we get 27,486 total SPS this season from Ranked Rewards and Tournaments!
27,486 SPS x the current price of SPS = $258.36
If we multiply this by 39 seasons (1.5 years worth of seasons, should be around the time the next set comes out) we get 1,071,954 SPS or $10,076 dollars.
But here's the kicker... can I earn this much every season or was this on the high end of out comes? We won't know until I get more data points so for now this is more fun than serious!
On the flip side... if / when Survivor mode comes back, my main account could potentially earn a lot more.
Seeing the numbers like this is a big reason why I love Splinterlands so much! I've never been rewarded so well for playing a game before. I hope you enjoyed this dive into my Winnings for Season 159!
Those are some good earnings Mondroid!
Always nice meeting you in the arena and in tournaments. It's a good challenge.
Didn't realize you're also Thoogen btw. any relation with Thraghun and Thragha? ;)
Thanks Tofu!
It would be cool to have a full list of who plays / scholars which accounts! I've kept it semi-hidden until now!
Haha, no, no relation to them. Maybe if I design an Archon next set that could happen! lol.
Amazing post and Congratz for such well deserved earnings! One cuestion, extracting from profits, you are not considering the tournament fee? I was thinking to begin tournaments for Conclave Arcana set only. Do u think is worth? Thanks!
You're right that I am not considering the tournament fee's at all in this data. Generally for all the tournaments I play in a season it ends up being around $12-$13 worth of DEC for both accounts.
If we multiply that by 39 seasons it comes out to $507 in tournament entry fees. Since I'm projecting (over 39 seasons) winning around $4,425 it's still well worth it but it does come out to about 11.5% of my total profit from tournaments.
Personally I am okay with the fee's because I know it also helps DEC supply and thus SPS price and I am a holder of SPS so indirectly benefit from burning my own DEC to play tournaments!
If you mean the scarred hand cup's that only use the newest set. It's hard to say if they're worth playing to you or not. They have a small portion of the total tournament reward pool allocated to them so they don't have the biggest prize pools. But they also don't require much DEC to enter either so they are low risk in that sense.
Ultimately it comes down to how you want to spend your time. If you think it's fun or just want some extra SPS I'd say go for it! Maybe you'll find you really like it and end up playing other tournaments too!
Thank you very much my friend! The problem is that Was late on Rebellion, but I hopefully will have a max RF CA deck, with Silver GF CA deck... Which tournaments would u play if u were me? Are u playing wild tournaments?
I play pretty much everything but the ones that only include 2 sets cause sometimes they are like alpha + untamed and I don't have enough cards to do much in those!
The wild tournaments I just accept that I'm probably not going to win them but can still win a bit more sps than I spent on the DEC entry fee.
For you I would say stick to the CA only and modern tournaments. Tournaments will be a bit tough without the legendary Rebellion summoners but all of them are set up where if you win a few matches, the minimum reward bracket is still more than the DEC entry fee.
You could also try the GF bronze and Silver version of those tournaments, they tend to pay more than the RF counterparts and have less people in them, making it easier to cash.
I'd say just see how it goes, as long as you win some sps it should be worth it.
W8! I made some shopping with Cryptic and Elias that are helping a lot! Was thinking about Nidhogrr... Bur first I need Gaines... Too much to get!
