RE: Splinterlands Strategies: Building a Silver League Deck with the Edge!

Nice post, thanks for sharing. I'm at Bronze 1 and I play up to Gold 3. At Silver 3, you rightly state that we get 2 quest chests; at Silver 2 you get 3, and 4 at Silver 1. I tried Gold 3 once, and got 4 although I suspect that's 'cos I completed the quest at Silver 1 before advancing to the Gold league.
Tip1: build up your Rating to say, 1700 then you can rent some gold foil legendaries or epics at level 2 to get you up to Silver 2, and 1900+ rating when you get to Silver 1. Sooo much easier building up your rating when you are 2-3 levels below your target level. As for Gold 3, well, good luck at that level! When you get there, be prep'd for at least...nah, wait 'till you get there to find out!!
Tip2: I use mainly Water Splinter with level 3-4 Alric gold foil, and level 2 mages to get up to and occasionally over Silver 1.
Tip3: save your DEC for renting if your strategy is to get 4+ quest chests per account (I have 2 accounts, both on Bronze 1 and closing in on Silver 3). Any DEC left over after your assault, consider spending a little on getting more common-level cards to combine.
So, is Silver 1 worth the effort? Yesterday, on one account, I got 1 common, 1 common gold foil, and 1 epic from my 4 cards; the other card was just a few DEC. OK, my other account gave me all DEC for a total of just 30-odd DEC so expect inconsistencies at this level too.

The deck is in Gold III now, I am in a position to beef it up at will as I have the cards to play in the Diamond League if I wanted. Renting is still more profitable so I'm toying with this.
Once I entered Gold III, I came across real players, it was quite refreshing.
Yes I found my brief hour or so at Gold 3 quite refreshing too. If I had more DEC to get some better cards, I'd still be there!
