Rising Star New Pack Opening & Card Giveaway - Win Seasonal Card Happy Lappy (Ends Feb. 4, 2022)
A couple weeks ago I had a Rising Star contest and put up a Rare Sarge card as the prize.
Let's take a look at the rules for entry from that last post:
In order to qualify for this giveaway, leave a comment telling us what your favorite Rising Star card is and your username.
Entries will be accepted until January 22, 2022 and I will select one winner of the R126 Sarge card.
Next, let's see how many entries were received by the deadline: 20.
Card Giveaway Results
R126 Sarge:


Congratulations to @dubble for winning the Rare Sarge card! I'll be sending it your way shortly!
Here's dubble's entry for favorite card:

This is a cool card that dubble mentions. The L17 Stick Up Boys is a legendary card that has a circulation of only 25, making it one of the rarest Rising Star cards in existence and none of them are available for sale on the marketplace. It comes with 7,000 Fans, 9,000 skill, and 600 luck!

New Pack Opening
Let's open up another three packs of cards today:
Pack 1:

Pack 2:

Pack 3:

Let's take a look at the Rare and Seasonal cards I received:
R142 Oboe: 50 Luck
R136 Desmond: 125 Fans, 100 Skill, 3 Luck
R141 Dundun: 50 Luck
All three of the rare cards I received are new cards for me! I was hoping to get the new Valentine seasonal card (S31 Juliet) so that I can start playing the special mission, but I'll have to wait until next time to see if I get one. Check out the recent post from @RisingStarGame for more information about the Valentine's event.
My current RisingStar stats are as follows:
4240 Fans
980 Luck
5189 Skill
116 Cards
Level 47

I moved up another level this time and am now within striking distance of Level 50, when I can seriously look into the Starbits Millionaire card and mission.
New Giveaway!
Since all of the rare cards I received in today's pack opening are unique to me, I'm going to put up one of my seasonal duplicates. So, if you weren't able to secure an S28 Happy Lappy during the last seasonal event, this giveaway is for you.
In order to qualify for this giveaway, leave a comment telling us whether you are going to buy an S31 Juliet card to play the new Valentine's event, or if you will try to receive one from a random drop in a pack opening. Also make sure you include your username.
Entries will be accepted until February 4, 2022 and I will select one winner of the S28 Happy Lappy.

Receive one from a random drop in a pack opening.
Count me in please @hoosie - I'm not sure how or if I'll go for the julliet card - seems like you'd have to buy a lot of packs to get one air dropped from what I can tell. Undecided

Thank you for the prize my friend, much appreciated!
I'm trying to save up for another purchase of packs (I opened 12 yesterday no luck) if I can't pack her within the next 4-5 days when I've saved up my remaining 50k starbits needed then I'm going to attempt to purchase her if its reasonable! I want to grind the special missions while there's plenty of time too. got in very late for the christmas event and only earned 1 interment each kind 😅
It's amazing how luck can change from event to event when it comes to the seasonal card drops. I seemed to be getting them all the time during the Christmas event. I have the opposite problem with Splinterlands... I've never gotten a legendary or gold foil from opening hundreds of packs, absolutely dreadful luck.

Same here for me, although I only opened a couple SL packs my overall luck for that game has been insignificant compared to Rising Star 😂 daily/season chests always rewarding me with potions and single digit credits, got bored of it now!

Thank you for the opportunity! @spryquasar
I'm looking at the price of Juliet before deciding. It's unlikely I'll be gambling on packs.
Count me in 😊 @blitzzzz
My plan to get Juliet was this: I bought 12 packs yesterday first thing, and did not receive her. I was frustrated and out of Starbits. I then put up for sale several duplicate rare cards I had, and even listed them slightly under market price so they would sell quick! Several hours later, I had over 20,000 more Starbits. Then, I bought one more pack which was a fail. I contemplated just giving up but I bought one more...and on the 14th pack I received the Juliet. So technically she cost me 120,000 Starbits, but I received all the other cards that came in the packs too, so it was worth it. But I have done the mission 7 times now with no luck, hopefully I will have better luck tomorrow.
I hope you are able to get her soon.

I'm not looking to participate in the seasonal, I started playing less than a month ago, I'm focusing on my stats and don't have any extra funds, fingers crossed that the next seasonal even finds me in a better position! Thanks for the giveaways @yhix8ycqc
