Ranked Season

I did incrementally better this season, landing about 20 spots higher than last time, in less battles to boot. Given I was on vacation 9 days of the last season, I'm pretty satisfied with this. I'm hoping to have one last run into the top 40 of Diamond so I can move on into champion.

Rental Market

So I'm pulling every single card I have for rent off of the rental market. Call it a fire drill, proof of keys, whatever. My main issue is that I have no clue as to whether or not these hundreds of cards are priced at current market rates unless they are currently unrented. I'm not aware of any tools that allow me to do this. Thus far the only thing I've been able to do is ratchet down the rental prices at regular intervals to keep everything rented. In this scenario, I feel like I need to hit the reset button at least once a quarter to make sure I haven't drifted my prices down too low. Once my last card falls off I'll start listing them again. This will also give me some fresh perspective and a chance to figure out what cards I really need to play, and what cards are distractions.

Chaos Legion Gold Foil Set

I'm ridiculously close to completing my rare gold foil set in addition to my complete set of commons. Once this is finished, I'll concentrate on epic cards, though they are already in the level 3-4 range. When I max a gold card, I stick its equivalent regular foil card onto the rental market. I always max out the regular foil first though. I do the same thing with reward cards.

New Reward Cards

I also maxed out all of the new round of reward cards and have started working on the golds there as well. Given reward cards kind of float and get released in tranches, it would be nice if we could sort them by release date. This way if I want to assess a specific tranch for upgrades, etc., I can just sort them and go. As it stands now I have to scroll through dozens of reward cards. It would be nice in general to be able to see the progression of reward cards, which is something that isn't really necessary with sets (Chaos, Untamed, etc.).

SPS Validator

So I decided to pick up another validator node this round. I got one in the presale. They seem to be selling slowly, which is good because I'll be able to pick it up with airdrop/staking funds without having to buy any SPS.
