Splinterlands Glint : What to do with it?
Recently Splinterlands has changed the structure of its **Ranked Play** and **End Of Season Rewards**.  Instead of winning **Focus and Reward Points** to earn **Chests**, you now earn **Glint** - a new, non-transferrable token than can be used to buy **Soulbound** items from the **Rewards Shop**.  Is this a good thing?  I don't know, I guess that's why I am making this post to ask...

So we're still 4 days out from the end of the current season - the first since the introduction of Glint and I've started to earn a few.  I'm starting to think about what I am going to do with this Glint and in the process trying to figure out what might give me the best **Bang for Buck**.  Or maybe I should just save up my Glint instead?  The Shop currently looks like this :-

I am assuming that the **Draw Options** are similar to how the old Chests work.  I was earning **Diamond** and **Gold Chests** before so I'm probably looking at the **Veteran Draw** or **Elite Draw** choices if I want to do a Like-For-Like swap and get similar rewards to before.  **Merits** are an option I could take if I want to upgrade my **Gladius Cards** for Brawling, but I'm fairly comfortable with my Brawl competitiveness at the moment.  I certainly don't need any more **Potions**, the **Titles** are out of my price range and buying **Energy** is unlikely to be a good option because I'll probably spend more rewards than I can earn from the extra games played.

So I tried an **Elite Draw** for 2,500 Glint and this is what it looked like :-

Wow.  That's pretty underwhelming.  I already have like 200 of those **Possessed Puppets** so I don't really need 8 more.  Maybe I should just save my Glint for now.  What about you?  What are people out there doing with their Glint?  Are you happy with these latest changes?
