Yaba's Pickle.

Nobody really knows where web3 is going from one year to the next but at no stage did I think that thousands of people would be getting so excited about Yaba's pickle.....

Now I'm sure that it's a great pickle to have and looks the part but is it really that special. Better than any of the other pickle's out there. What about Clayboyn's pckle or Cryptomancer's pickle. We should have some demo's made up to compare and contrast everybody's pickle before going to sale.

I'm sure that Pickle Rick would have something to say about the subject.

Unfortunately and who knows, this could change somewhere in the future, Pickle Rick isn't available to play in Splinterlands. Future collab, anyone???

So. Yaba's Pickle it is.

On abilities it doesn't seem to be the strongest card released but I think that the novelty factor will make it a collectors item so demand should be high from the community.

I think it would be nicer as a neutral card personally but even for the water splinter it would be good for my collection. Weapons training has really added a lot of option to the no attack cards in the game and opened up a host of new strategies.

Dodge, shield, slow and heal are a good combination but 7 health isn't great for a tank, especially with no protection from magic.

It looks like there will only be three ways to purchase the card before it hits the secondary markets.

• Shopfront.

You can buy the card but there will be an $SPS staking requirement of one card per 1000 $SPS staked.
150 DEC per card. 2% Gold foil and 1/4000 black foil drop rates.

• Gold foil arcane raffle.

7 days after sales end, we’ll kick off the 2nd Chance Special Opportunity + Free Gold Foil Arcane Raffle Chance. Each Raffle ticket entered into the Raffle will receive a Regular Foil Yaba’s Pickle card, plus each Raffle entry will have a chance to win a Gold Foil Arcane card distributed from highest mint number first to lowest number last
Ref: Splinterlands

200 DEC + 10 Vouchers + 200 Aura par ticket.

• Black foil arcane raffle.

Within 7 days after the Gold Raffle ends, the Black Foil Arcane Auction begins. Cards will be distributed from highest number first to lowest number last. 20 Black Foil Arcane cards will be auctioned — 1 per day, with each auction lasting 25 hours
Ref: Splinterlands

500 DEC + 50 Vouchers + 1000 Aura.

To buy or not to buy.

That is the question. Well with only 270K $SPS i can't buy a maxed version from the shop directly. At 150 DEC per card, you are looking at $60 for a maxed out version which is a bit off putting. For a common it's a sharp price for a medium card that isn't going to change your deck.

As a collectors item I would love to add it to my personal collection so the ideal will probably be to buy a few raffle tickets and hope for a bit of luck.

I have already entered a raffle through the @pushtoken raffle where you can buy a ticket for 1000 DEC. You can check it out here, https://peakd.com/splinterlands/@pushtoken/a-raffle-for-yabas-pickle

The Splinterlands community's most desirable meme card will soon be up for grabs — and not just one, but 5 fully maxed-out RF copies plus 2 maxed GF copies! Welcome to the Yaba’s Pickle Raffle.

Full details are in the post above but there will be seven winners total with two of them max gold foil copies. Who wouldn't like one of those. Also the funds raised form the raffle go back to burning the PNS token which all ties nicely back into the community and helps both projects.
