What is the most profitable way to play Splinterlands?

Greetings Splinterlovers 💚

In Splinterlands, there are countless game modes, some of which are more profitable than others. I have conducted analyses in previous posts to try to figure out which ones are most worth dedicating time, effort, and, in most cases, money to. Although I seem to have done so with only two modes or aspects that offer us profits, such as "Validator Nodes and Land Plots," there are many other areas to explore. However, in this post, I will comment, based on the information we have, on which game mode offers the highest profits in Splinterlands.

I won't be doing complicated calculations like I did in the past. I'll do it differently, taking into account the information that exists about these game modes and because I believe that one of them can bring us very good profits this month. Of course, before I begin with the actual development of this post, I must mention that none of the game modes will bring you millions, but probably hundreds of dollars a month. but it's not something that can be achieved overnight, and it's certainly not easy.

With that clear, let's move on with the post and see which game mode generates the most profits in Splinterlands.

What are the existing game modes and their potential winnings?

Okay, to begin with, let's explore and/or detail the different game modes available where you can really earn good rewards in the game. With this, we'll start ruling some out to finally arrive at the best one, which will be in the next section of this post. In any case, just because many of these modes pay less than others doesn't mean they're not good to play. In fact, for me, they are all good, it's just that you have to devote time to all of them, and this is virtually impossible.

In any case, let's take a look at the game modes first:

Game modes:

• Ranked game mode: In this game mode, we can play in the "Modern and Wild" formats, in which we will be paid both SPS and GLINT every time we win a battle. This means that in this mode, we depend 100% on our skill as players, our deck of cards, and our creativity to develop strategies and know how to counter our rivals, both through battle modifiers and our opponents' combinations.

• Tournaments: Tournaments are a game mode where you earn SPS depending on your position in the tournament. The higher you finish, the more SPS you have the chance to win. Very simple, right? However, the tournaments that pay the most are the gold foil card tournaments or the diamond league tournaments, although you can earn good money with "Gold and Silver." However, the higher the level, the greater the requirements. For this, you need SPS in Staking, card decks, and DECs to pay the entry fees. You can win a lot, but the level of play is incredibly high.

• Brawl Battles (Guilds): Brawl battles are very similar to tournaments or guild fights, where you must contribute money so that your guild can level up and obtain upgrades that you can apply in battle against other teams. The rewards are in SPS and depend on the guild's level or, in this case, the "Tier" they are in. The best and where the earnings are highest is Tier 5. The earnings are constant as long as you play each battle, but the more guilds there are in the last tier, the lower the reward will be.

• Plots of Land: This is a game mode that can be very profitable, but it requires a significant investment, as well as a good strategy for farming resources. So, even though it can be profitable, it can take quite a long time, as well as good resource management and investment in the most valuable cards in the game.

Note: Now that we know how each of the game modes where rewards can be earned works, in the next section we need to explore and/or decide which one is the most profitable of all. Although you should already have an idea of which one it is, and although it also requires effort, I think it is the easiest way to earn more rewards in the game.

Is "Ranked Play" the most profitable mode in Splinterlands?

The short answer is "YES." The truth is that the most profitable game mode is undoubtedly ranked play, which is divided into two formats: Modern and Wild. This is where you can earn rewards on a very consistent basis if you know how to do things right. However, I will discuss what players need to be successful at this:

• SPS Staking: The most important thing of all is this: you need to have SPS in Staking to get a good multiplier, which is what will allow you to earn daily rewards for each battle you win. The more SPS you have, the higher your multiplier will be, and the greater the rewards will be. Of course, the league you are in also has an influence, but without SPS you will not be able to play.

• Deck of cards: The next step is to have a deck of cards. You need to build a good deck to be able to play and apply strategies against all types of players in the game. Of course, you don't need them all; you just need to choose the best cards depending on the format you want to play, and do so. I've made several posts about this, but that's not the subject of this post.

Why is it the best way to win?

Basically, because it's the easiest way to earn SPS. You just need to be active in ranked play every day, meet the requirements I mentioned earlier, and that's it. There's nothing else to do. Of course, you need to be a good player, because if you're not, it won't work. I may write a post about that later, but this is how it works, and that's why it's the most profitable way to earn money in Splinterlands.

Conclusion

I hope that with this information, you now know which game mode is the most profitable in Splinterlands, which one generates the most earnings, and what you need to win in them. Of course, even though it may seem simple, it is not. However, it requires a lot of perseverance to accelerate rewards and progression in the game.
