My Maxed Rebellion SB Set Won't Be So... Maxed

@gadrian · 2025-07-13 15:17 · Splinterlands

Not quite at the end of the Ranked season at Splinterlands, but it's time to see my progress on maxing out my Rebellion soulbound reward cards. Time is running out too, since the next soulbound reward set has been announced. I'll keep a track of the deadline, even if it might be a little longer than that (Matt said 3-4 months): 3 months minus ~2 week: 16 or 30 Sep?

The remaining time is tight, and even without burning doubles or GFs, I will not have all cards maxed from this set. But that will be close.

So, let's see what I did with the Glint this season.

I purchased 8 legendary draws (+2 pulled in chests), 1 epic draw (and stopped!), all rare draws, and 175 common draws. I have no Glint left. There are still almost 23 hours left until the end of the season at the time of writing, but I'm writing the update now because tomorrow I have another post scheduled.

It's no longer easy to see how much Glint I earn every season, since I started to burn cards, which affects the total. I spent 388,750 Glint this season, however.

Let's keep a table too, going forward:

Season since New SB Set Glint Used to Purchase Draws Difference
Season 15 322,500 +8,400 Glint
Season 16 295,200 -27,300 Glint
Season 17 322,500 +27,300 Glint
Season 18 322,500 +0 Glint
Season 19 367,850 +45,350 Glint
Season 20 383,800 +15,950 Glint
Season 21 358,200 -25,950 Glint
Season 22 (current) 388,750 +30,550 Glint
Last 3 seasons' average 376,917

Let's see what my current situation of the Rebellion SB set completion progress is so far:

Season since New SB Set Commons % Rares % Epics % Legendaries %
Season 15 61 / 13 53 / 5 70 / 13 67 / 0
Season 16 66 / 14 61 / 6 79 / 14 67 / 0
Season 17 75 / 17 70 / 8 85 / 16 67 / 0
Season 18 84 / 19 78 / 8 91 / 17 67 / 0
Season 19 89 / 20 81 / 9 93 / 19 73 / 0
Season 20 92 / 21 86 / 10 94 / 19 76 / 2
Season 21 95 / 22 91 / 11 95 / 19 80 / 0
Season 22 (current) 97 / 21 95 / 5 96 / 13 84 / 0

You'll notice quite some drops on the GF cards progress. That's because I started burning them.

That's +4% to the progress of legendary cards (and 0% to GFL), +1% progress to epic cards (and -6% to epic GF) - and stopped!, +4% progress to rare cards (and -6% to the rare GF), and +2% progress to the common cards (and -1% to the common GF).

Last season I had 5/7 maxed epics and 3/12 maxed legendary cards, 4/12 maxed common and 4/12 maxed rare cards.

After this season I have 6/7 maxed epics and 5/12 maxed legendary cards, 7/12 maxed common and 7/12 maxed rare cards.

So, the changes in max level status are: on legendary cards (+2), on epic cards (+1), on rare cards (+3), and on common cards (+3).

I stopped pushing on epic cards. I have one card that is not maxed and unlikely to get maxed "thanks" to RNG: missing 13 copies. So, I won't bother anymore.

I will continue to push for legendary draws first, rare 2nd (because they are further from 100% than commons), and commons last (because they are the main beneficiary of cards from chests too).

I already burned a good number of duplicates, but also started to burn GFs.

Here are the "before and after" snapshots for the Rebellion SB legendary cards, which are my current main focus. "Before" first:

3 at level 4 (max level), 8 at level 3, 1 at level 1

And now the current levels of the legendary cards...

My Rebellion SB legendary cards: 5 at level 4 (max level), 6 at level 3, 1 at level 2.

This season, 2 legendary cards got upgraded to max level, and 1 card to level 2.

Perhaps a more relevant metric is the amount of Glint already spent compared to the total amount needed to max out the SB set (only regulars).

Here' s my situation:

*Glint needed for a fully upgraded regular Rebellion SB set, w/o doubles:* **8,790,000** Glint *Glint value of the cards collected so far (ignore GF and doubles):* **7,987,050** Glint* *) Glint associated to the 13 copies of Olivia not pursued, added to not mess the progress. *Progress percentage:* **90.87%** *Estimated^ time to max out the RF cards (or GF, where possible):* **5 more seasons (2.5 months, i.e. end-September)** ^) *estimation now includes tier advancement rewards (started using last season's info, rather than 3-seasons avg, because it's more relevant at the end); estimation doesn't account for Glint wasted on pulling doubles of maxed out cards or GF instead of RF (where GF card level isn't high enough)* Last season's Glint value of cards collected: 7,749,950. Difference: **237,100** Glint-worth of cards this season, including tier advancement rewards.
Season since New SB Set Glint-Worth of Cards (including Tier Advancement Rewards) Difference
Season 15 352,050 +7,650 Glint
Season 16 323,250 -28,800 Glint
Season 17 298,500 -24,750 Glint
Season 18 302,400 +3,900 Glint
Season 19 375,800 +73,400 Glint
Season 20 226,850 -148,950 Glint
Season 21 417,300 +190,450 Glint
Season 22(current) 237,100 -180,200 Glint

A major drop in the real advancement numbers, due to duplicates... as expected. Likely my 2 months estimate won't be enough, because it's still trailing, based on a time when I didn't hit so many doubles.
