Lazada Games: Changes

before i discuss our main topic..
here's an example of a Lazada event which is obviously impossible to complete if the player is not ready to do a purchase, something that i have mentioned before..
unlike in other events, there is no consolation prize in this example..
so if the player is not prepared to complete all 9 tasks, then it's better for him to not grind at all...



Merge Boss

visually, there is the expansion of the shopping center, it now has a second level..
and in terms of the game system itself, they just introduced some new methods for acquiring items more easily...


GoGo Match

instead of just the traditional Lazada Coins, they introduced their own in-game currency..
that currency can be used to buy additional turns or moves in order for the player to complete a stage..
although in my opinion, it's still more practical to utilize the Coins in manipulating the puzzle..
why..?
because that can guarantee a 3-Star finish...


Style Star

well, they totally changed the game's format...


here's my cyberpunk costume from the old version...


and then here's my Christmas outfit for the updated version...

what is the bad news..?
unfortunately, the game became time-consuming, unlike before where it's possible to play it without even looking at the screen..
what is the good news..?
currently, it provides lots of LazRewards...

there are 4 types of tasks..
the easist is the rental service, which only lasts after a few clicks..
then there's the acne-cleaning and the facial service, both of which require more control of the player's smartphone..
but the best among the 4 is the styling service..
why..?
because the reward is fixed for the first 3 mentioned tasks, and also proportional to the Energy consumed; that is 1 Star for every 2 Energy..
while the reward for the styling service can reach up to 10 Stars; that is 1 Star for every 1.2 Energy..
the Stars on the other hand is the requirement in claiming the prize, the player is actually offered different options that comes with a deadline..
in my case, i always choose the Php 16 LazReward because the goal of reaching 1000 Stars is achievable within 2 days...

as of the moment, the variation of styling requests are limited, so familiarization is the key in getting 10 Stars all the time..
fulfilling each request is guided by 3 factors; the symbol(s), the emoji, and the numerical rating..
the symbol or symbols provide a hint on which item from a particular costume category can be used to fulfill a certain request..
but it can be tricky sometimes because there are requests which do not necessarily follow the symbols..
in such case, the player will have to try out all items from each costume category, and just see which one will yield the highest rating..
sometimes you only have to choose the actual matching costumes despite of their symbols, or even if they do not have any symbol at all.. 
the numerical rating helps in determining the best combination of costume, although reaching the highest value is not very necessary..
if the color of the number turns green, then that signifies that the value increased as compared to a previously selected item..
but the best indicator is the emoji, because it shows the satisfaction level of the customer..
it'll instantly tell the player if he's styling is already good enough to get 10 Stars..
there are 3 levels of satisfaction; unsatisfied (which is a red-faced emoji), neutral (a smiling face), and satisfied (a happy face with hearts)..
in my case, i don't always go for the highest score, once i hit that happy face i just go with whatever really looks good on my model...


here are my rewards from my first 6 days in playing the new version of Style Star..
that's Php 80 in 5 consecutive days, the first game day wasn't officially counted since it didn't last for 24 hours...


after only 3 months, i already reached Php 1,091.79 LazRewards (as of the time of the last screenshot)..
that's from Php 400 plus from early July 2024.. 
but it went down to Php 640.17 because i spent a total of Php 451.62 for the months of September and October...

LazRewards: Fast Ways to Earn

probably the fastest way to get discount on Lazada right now is by using the Daily Flash Voucher..
the only requirement is for you to grab the voucher during the scheduled time of release..
you just need to set an alarm and you're all set..
but the amount of discount is fixed, as well as the amount of minimum spend, and the voucher is not always applicable for any item within the platform..
TIP: it's better to use if you already have a target item to buy, and if you are sure if the store is legitimate or the item is authentic...

LazRewards is another option to avail of discounts within Lazada..
it can be accumulated through a lot of ways..
and so far, since its most recent launch, it seems to have no expiration..
but like the Daily Flash Voucher, LazRewards is not always applicable for every item...


Laz Like

or the video menu for Lazada, so far, is the easiest place to get LazRewards..
i think the possible amount of claimable reward there starts at Php 130..
the total redeemable value is determined at the earnings section..
TIP: never save up in order to target that one-time Php 150 prize..
you see, the closer a player gets to Php 150, the harder the task gets and the slower it becomes to accumulate LazRewards in exchange for Gold Bars..
the exchange rate of LazReward per Gold Bar becomes lower as you try to get closer to the Php 150 value, meaning you have to spend more Gold Bars just to get Php 1.00 of LazReward..
based on my own experience, it was around Php 2.50 in exchange for 20,000 Gold Bars when i was below the Php 140 mark..
then it became more than Php 1.00 only in exchange for 20,000 Gold Bars when i was already above the Php 140 mark..
but by maintaining a lower level of earnings, a player can always trade his Gold Bars for more LazRewards..
below Php 100 and above 70, i'm able to always exchange 20,000 Gold Bars for Php 5..
that's 25 centavos for every 1,000 Gold Bars...



so the right trick is to just claim any amount of reward that you are allowed to do so for each passing day, so your earnings will continuously be reduced..
and just accomplish the easy missions which only last for a few seconds or minutes, so you can keep accumulating Gold Bars which you will strategically trade for LazRewards whenever you are at a desirable trading point..
that way, you can keep accumulating LazRewards on a daily basis...


Style Star


at first, i was not really paying attention to this game, since it's of the dress up genre..
but during an event early this year, i realized that it was the easiest game where i can earn more LazRewards..
as far as i know, it only has 4 types of tasks; an easy cash, a fan request, a puzzle, and a gift booster..
most of the tasks only lasts for a few seconds, while the longest lasts for about 2 minutes..
the good thing is, the player can easily trigger any of the remaining 3 easy tasks while the 2-minute task is in progress..
it's possible to utilize all the player's Energy within that 2-minute period, that's how easy this game is..
performing tasks is regulated by the default Energy limit, so you don't have to worry about having to play the game for the whole day..
TIP: just keep on collecting the free cash daily for future use...


GoGo Match



this on the other hand is the hardest among the 4 games that i'm playing at Lazada..
no need to be serious on this one if you do not have the luxury of time..
by the way, i'm no longer playing LazLand, because currently it doesn't provide anything for LazRewards..
i just left it at near completion, just in case i'll need the voucher from it..
well back to GoGo Match, it is the hardest in the sense that it requires thinking and no matter how good you are, it will still require more time to finish as compared to the other games..
although the puzzles can be easily manipulated using Lazada Coins, it is still time-consuming, especially when the player is asked to complete a lot of stages everyday..
TIP: just target what is possible to achieve during events, and keep on collecting the free power-ups daily...


Major TIP:
you don't have to always play the games, you can just complete missions whenever there's a Lazada event which provides LazRewards as prize..
always evaluate first what is feasible for you to attain during special events, because most of the bigger prizes are impossible to acquire if you do not wish to perform purchasing missions..
most of the time, you can already tell which prize(s) you can achieve until the last day of the event just by assessing the types of missions, whether they are daily or good for the entire duration of the event...


here's a sample of my earnings from the last less than 3 months..
you can use it to buy something in Lazada for free, and don't forget to use a free shipping voucher as well..
then you can sell that item for a 100% profit...

Useful Games: Lazada

okay, enough of the stressful games for now..
since all the bad hormones that i'm getting from Axie Infinity has already resulted to me having Hypertension... :(

no update for my Star Wars collection as well..
i tried searching through Lazada and Shopee recently, but the prices are outrageous..
that's 4 digits in Peso (Php) value..
i also can't find any of my targets...

and so for this particular post, i'll be featuring simple and yet very useful games..
kindly note that i only started playing them during this year (2023).. 
these are games which are included in the Lazada app, i'm not sure for other countries though..
playing such can provide rewards like discount vouchers or physical items, not to mention the Coins which also have some monetary value within Lazada...


Lazland


the goal is to just water the Palay field..
the game provides water by default, but the player can also earn additional water by performing various tasks..
i like it because it is not a time-consuming game..
i only check it 3 times a day; morning, afternoon, and in the evening..
and all the daily tasks combined won't even last for 1 hour to accomplish...

the usual reward is 1 kilogram of rice..
but in case your location is outside their delivery area, then there's no need to worry..
it's possible to exchange the reward item with a discount voucher..
before writing this blog post, i already earned 2 Php 60 worth of vouchers..
both were utilized in purchasing products from Lazada which we really need...


Merge Boss



in this game, the player is asked to fulfill various customers' orders..
item generators produce materials or lower level items that can be merged together in order to come up with items of higher level..
the item generators themselves can be merged in order to produce better or higher level item generators..
that way, the player can create the target products that each customer is asking for...



this game is a bit time-consuming because of the Energy regeneration mechanics..
1 Energy is generated every 2 minutes, so that's 30 Energy after an hour..
because of that, i check the game every 2 hours during daytime...

the Lazada Coins are the usual rewards that can be earned from this game..
1 Coin is equivalent to Php 1.00..
they can be used as an alternative payment within Lazada, but don't expect the system to allow you to utilize too many Coins per each purchase...

aside from the Coins, occasionally Merge Boss or Lazada comes up with events where the player can earn discount vouchers and other prizes..
such events are only available for a limited time period..
so far, i have already participated in 3 events, and i'm currently participating in the 4th one..
i already forgot what i acquired from 2 of those events..
but for the one that recently concluded, i was able to get as much as Php 200 discount voucher..
it was timely, because we needed to buy a specialized filter for our water dispenser back then...


and so, i must say that this is a better way of spending your free time..
instead of playing unfair, stressful, time-consuming, scam games..
you may not be earning money, but discount vouchers are still helpful in purchasing products that you really need from various shops within Lazada...

Axie Infinity: The Economic Freedom Scam

Economic Freedom..?
that was what the developers were boasting about on social media during the time when good Axies would cost around USD 500 or even more..
playing and earning at the same time, while making use of a great number of regular SLP reward as their bait..
but for the victims from the 2nd half of 2021, it didn't last very long before the developers revealed their hit-and-run plan...

back in 2022, they started to move to a new game, which is Axie Infinity: Origins..
the graphics and gameplay may have improved, but NEVER their treatment for the scam victims..
it was just a downhill ride for a lot of Axie investors ever since the developers' betrayal in terms of manipulating the daily rewards..
and now, they are using their AXS as the new bait for unsuspecting victims...


but before i proceed with this terrible story, here are some changes for me within the game:


here's my previous team when we were already in Axie Infinity: Origins...


this is my sixth Axie..
yes, i was stupid enough to buy some new ones..
i thought they could help me get my hands on some rewards as the number of active players diminished as each day goes by..
but NO, as it happens, the developers just also make the spread of the rewards in their leaderboard become more unfair..
as in giving no chance for the scam victims to retrieve what they have lost back in 2021...


this is my seventh Axie..
it's useless to explain their role or what they are good at in battle..
why is that so..?
because the developers just keep on changing a lot of card skills...


and so let's proceed with this evil story..
here's an enumeration of a lot of other unfair schemes in Axie Infinity: Origins:
  • FREE Axies - they are different from the Non-Fungible Token (NFT) Axies, their purpose is to try to attract new players so they can get a feel of the game, hoping they can convince those new players to actually buy Axies so the developers can earn from the commission
  • Defective Cards - they always make an excuse that some cards may be defective because the game is still under development, but some cards never got fixed at all, and that's basically impossible since they are fond of continuously changing a lot of card descriptions, i even have a card back then which can make me automatically lose a match every time it gets broken 
  • Turn Based - during the earlier stages of Origins, players can already get an advantage just by choosing the more preferable turn
  • Bonus Energy - during the earlier stages of Origins, the players with more cards that provide bonus Energy are usually at an advantage, but to make things worse, some Axies are even gifted with the skill to replicate such bonus Energy cards without any penalty
  • Boar Requirement - this is like the 800 MMR (Matchmaking Rating) anti-earning rule back in V2, players can't earn any SLP unless they reach such stage
  • Reduction of SLP Reward - it's actually further reduction of the SLP reward, before the end of V2 i was still earning USD 2 for every 15 days, but during the earlier stages of Origins, it takes me a month just to get the number of SLP with that estimated value
  • Beneficial to Few - Origins was only beneficial to those investors who have already earned their return on investment (ROI) before the collapse of SLP and then that of the entire cryptocurrency market in the 2nd half of 2021, it was also beneficial to new players since during Origins it was cheaper to purchase Axies in order to come up with a team that can better climb the leaderboard, unlike in the case of scam victims who already lost so much back in 2021, so much that only the higher positions in the leaderboard can help them recover their lost money
  • Class Skills and Purity Imbalance - back during the Origins' days when Class still matters, a few Classes were clearly given an advantage because they were provided with a lot of strong skills, skills whose effects are not even available for other Classes, while Beasts and Birds can remain pure while possessing such strong skills, other Classes only had the choice to remain pure with their mediocre skills or sacrifice Potential Points so they can also make use of the Beasts and Birds' powerful cards
  • Beasts' FREE Cleanse and Rage - one of best assets of the Beasts Class during the time when there were powerful disabling cards, and it comes for FREE
  • Disabling Cards - back in V2, cards that have disabling abilities were only allowed to disable certain parts of an Axie's body or based on the reach of the attack (melee or ranged), that way the Axie won't be completely useless in battle, but in the earlier stages of Origins, instead of just targeting select body parts or reach type, they allowed disabling cards to target either attack or shield cards as a whole leaving the opponent with very small chance to fight back 
  • Deck and Draw Rigging - in my case, there were a lot of times when i would repeatedly draw a set of cards which i can't even use together, or times when in multiple turns i would just draw Revenge and Curse cards, that kind of bad luck while my enemies just find it easy to draw their main cards
  • Fake Market Activities - showing market activities is one of their schemes to make it look like players can still earn outside the leaderboard, but what's very suspicious about their marketplace is that powerful Runes are still being sold at high prices during off-season when there is no more reward at stake and they can't even Disenchant those to get any useful item, rare Axies and Lands are also still being traded at very high costs
  • Energy Burst - it didn't solve the problem about the Energy imbalance since V2 because anyone who gets the Energy Burst permanently gains the bonus Energy for the succeeding turns, so the first to activate it will mostly likely get the advantage in the match
  • Funds Concentrated for the Elite - whether tournaments, social media contests, or the leaderboards, we have noticed that the value of prizes are always so much bigger for their elite players (guild players, influencers, acquaintances), they are only generous to a select few, even the rewards for their social media contests are just mostly being given to players that they know, and they are doing that as if it is impossible to distribute the prize pool to more players in order to help the others recover some of the money that they have lost for believing in the game
  • Increasing RON Fees - although the transaction fees nowadays in terms of RON can be considered small, the truth is a lot of players lost more money as compared to whatever they are saving during the age of RON transactions, and seeing how such fees doubled or more than doubled in value in a short period of time is disturbing
  • Lending Land to Influencers - their NFT Lands costs a lot of money, and in order to try to attract other players to buy their Lands, they are lending some to their influencers so they can showcase in their streams and social media pages the possible uses of such assets
  • Burning Assets - this is something that they could have done before, but they are leaving the decision to burn assets to the players, the fact is their company can do the sacrifice to purchase assets for burning purposes in order to help the victims from 2021, but instead they are just focusing most their of fundings for their elite community as if they are only ones who have helped the company earn a lot before

these are just some of the added reasons why the game can never be fair for all..
reasons why the scam victims can never recover the money that they have lost in buying Axies in 2021, especially the weak ones..
reasons why the game is continuously going down..
and reasons why people, most people, should never trust such gaming and cryptocurrency company...


here's a related post about the violent changes in Axie Infinity:

Axie Infinity: Violent Changes

this blog entry will narrate the phase 2 of my journey in the game Axie Infinity..
the evil phase which started very early for me...

but first, let me show some progress that i made in the game...


my fourth Axie..
this one costs around Php 12,000..
but because of the very expensive fees during the time that i purchased it, my expenses went up to Php 15,000...


my fifth Axie..
this is the most reliable one that i have, it is the game changer for me..
it costs around Php 8,250...


this is one of the few moments when i was able to meet the boss of Ruin 21, the Slime Knight, with my whole team intact..
my main team was able to beat this one to help me claim the bonus SLP from that level...


then here's one of my encounters against the duo boss of Ruin 36, the Right and the Left Sentinel..
it is easy to beat them using this kind of team and formation as well, focusing on one boss first..
Critical was essential in order to beat these Chimeras..
but after the reward from this stage was removed, i finally managed to beat it using just my Aqua team...


now, here is the dark side of the Axie Infinity scheme...

my horror at Axie Infinity started immediately, just 15 days after i invested on it..
i was only able to enjoy the basic 150 SLP daily reward during my first 15 days..
but after that, everything just felt like a trap for us - a scam...

it was the basic daily rewards which served as my basis in deciding to invest on that game..
i have an acquaintance, who had joined the game during its earlier release, and so i consulted him about it..
my questions back then were:
  • is the system reliable in computing and storing/recording the SLP which you get from every possible method or source while playing?
  • does the management have the tendency to adjust the basic daily rewards?
he told me that the system is reliable, and that they have never adjusted the rewards ever since he joined..
in addition to that, he told me that they were earning Php 6.00 per SLP around the time they started..
i, on the other hand, thought that i would be fine for every 15 days even if the cryptocurrency market pulls down the value of SLP until Php 1.11..
that getting my return on investment (ROI) was feasible..
but i was totally wrong...

i didn't know that the SLP economy was going to start crashing around the time that i joined..
but aside from the inflation of SLP due to its supply, other terrible and brutal things happened while that was happening: 
  • by August 2021, they implemented the halving of the basic daily rewards, and that move felt like a betrayal for all the small investors who got convinced that the game was play-to-earn
  • it was in 2021 when they started to lower the Arena SLP rewards
  • during the emergence of the Reptile class, a lot of 0-Energy Reptile and Bug cards were overpowered, thus resulting to the skills imbalance
  • around October 2021, they implemented the 800 MMR anti-SLP-earning rule to prevent others from earning from their game, and of course the target was those small investors who only had Chopsuey Axies
  • around the same time in October, we started to notice the adjustment in the Critical rate, which was still a bit low during that time
  • around February 2022, they decided to totally remove the rewards from the Daily Quests to further penalize their small investors
  • SLP rewards from boss stages in Adventure mode were also removed
  • it was also during 2022 that they further increased the Critical rate to a level where those with at least 35 Morale are already doing it repeatedly in just a single match

i honestly don't know what exactly is happening behind the Critical rate..
my team, even my Plant Axie, rarely performs Critical hits..
but when it is the enemy's turn, even Aquatics can deliver the Critical blow..
and that made us think that maybe the opponents that can perform multiple Morale-based Criticals during a match are bots deployed by the management to prevent other players from earning SLP..
Morale-based Criticals are those Critical hits which are not 100% sure to occur and also not boosted by some buff..
that it might be the reason why opponents tend to produce more Critical hits as compared to your own team..
or that the Critical rate of a certain player is based on his daily total Energy versus that of his opponent...

based on my records, back in 2021, encountering Morale-based Criticals in 4 matches was the average high during that time..
but for 2022, the occurance of Morale-based Criticals in 7 matches is no longer rare, and anything that goes beyond that is considered brutal..
back in 2021, it was noticeable that a lot of Morale-based Criticals happens more often for attacks with low damage..
but in 2022, those with a base of at least 35 Morale became almost godlike..
we were suggesting before that 0-Energy attack cards be prevented from producing a Critical hit, since they don't cost anything, but the management never listened until the very end of V2 as an SLP source...

a lot of 0-Energy cards created the imbalance, together with the improved Critical rate..
like the Birds' Post Fight, which is free, has high damage, and even higher damage when it delivers a Critical blow..
Reptiles benefited a lot, because most of their 0-Energy cards have both attack and defense..
basically, they already have average attack, a lot of bonus damage, and high defense, but their damage and shield are further enhanced by just using free cards..
just imagine, most of their bonus damage are meant for Axies which already has a class disadvantage against them..
0-Energy cards were also instrumental for them to be able to perform debuffing combos like Stun..
not to mention about their Critical rate again, and a lot of methods for them to conserve Energy..
it was like Reptiles are being treated as gods by the management..
all of those, while Aquatics are not being provided with enough means to improve their damage against the Plant/Reptile Class..
they made sure that pure Aquatic Axies will not stand a chance against them...

regarding the bots..
well, there are a lot of anomalous behavior inside the Arena..
i have been in matches where i received multiple Morale-based Criticals from my enemies, with the Birds being the most notable among them..
a lot of times, they would deliver those Critical hits exactly when you have enough shield in order to survive their attack..
but no, the system would favor them, as if they know what you have prepared against them..
other anomalous behavior includes; players not playing despite them being in a risky or low MMR already, players only playing during the earlier rounds, and players only playing during the later rounds when there is no more chance to fight back...

the win rate in the game is dependent on the player's daily Energy limit..
if you have a good team, and your Energy limit is at the maximum, then chances are you can climb up the rankings..
i noticed that from Axie streamers..
you may have the same team composition as compared to other players, but those who have more daily Energy has more chances of winning..
it's like the game is rigged only for those who have low or the minimum Energy limit..
such players may experience more Critical hits against their team, or very poor card distribution...

another unfair thing about the game are the cheaters..
from time to time, the management would notify the community that there are cheaters exploiting the game..
i'm not sure, but most of the penalties that i have read before are just temporary ban..
i have never read anything about a permanent ban penalty..
so it's disappointing to have such players within the system..
because they might repeatedly exploit the game and abuse other players who don't know how to go through the programming itself...


Axie Infinity made us believe that it was indeed a play-to-earn game..
that players only need to buy or have at least 3 Axies in order to start earning..
but they proved us that everything was just a trap..
they just used the daily rewards in order to lure us into their game..
they used us to pump the price of Ethereum's ETH, which was relative to the prices of Axies, but that was just back then..
it was fine for the early generation of players..
those who have already collected their return on investment, especially those who really managed to earn a lot from the game..
but the management did all those brutal things without consideration for those players who have invested at the worst possible timing - exactly before their purge..
players who were seeking an alternative source of income during the COVID-19 pandemic..
players who settled for the not very skilled but still expensive Chopsuey Axies because they were only after the minimum daily rewards..
players who they call uneducated in the field of cryptocurrency..
if they are really so smart with compassion, then why did they not provide reminders or warnings in their websites and in the game itself about the volatility of cryptocurrencies, which includes the values of their NFT products..?
that is something that Binance has done consistently..
why did they not provide a warning that they may change the amount of rewards anytime they want..?
and that is because they don't want most people to know..
their customer support is poor..
they would listen to their elite players, but not to the victims of their bait-and-withdraw scheme..
they don't care if a lot of players are going through depression after what they did..
they are very vocal about every good news, but are very silent regarding drastic changes..
so from Axies which cost thousands back then, 5 digits each..
now a lot are down to just a few hundreds, for as low as Php 230...

what i can say is..?
Axie Infinity has no intention in making the game balance, unlike Chess or Game of the Generals..
they are only pretending to be seeking balance, when in fact they are the ones who are creating the imbalance..
they will always make some cards stronger as compared to others..
because they want to lure the players into buying or breeding for the cards or skills which are receiving their godly favor..
and they are doing that in order to make their own wallets grow..
Axie Infinity is not a play-to-earn game for all..
it's play-so-that-the-elite-players-can-earn-from-you..
they would beat the weak for SLP, and they would beat the weak for AXS..
and that is the violent cycle in the game, for every season...

Kingdom Wars: No Cheat Game Guide (Part 4)

Kingdom Wars: Revisited


My Army


so this was my final army setup, before i deleted the game..
a lot of the characters have not yet reached their maximum level..
but i no longer aimed for that since i was only concerned in finishing my study of Ares...


The Ares Powerstone Experiment


Ares at Level 35..
you can also see there my final count of Jewels and Gold..

boosted with 100 Powerstones..
60 for Critical and 40 for Defense..
you can see there the final count of the Powerstones that i have collected from doing Rebirths..


so here's the final result of Ares' Critical Experiment..
her base attack at Level 35 is 105,120, and her Critical reaches 157,680 damage..
again, she was the best candidate because of her long range, her piercing attack, and also the long reach of her attack..
while the range determines the farthest enemy detection distance when Ares will start attacking, the reach pertains to the farthest distance where her fireball attack can still inflict damage to an enemy..
with 16.2122 Critical (that is like in terms of percentage), the Critical is already easily recognizable for the case of Ares..
here's a related post regarding Ares' Critical Experiment:
https://jedisandsiths.blogspot.com/2020/09/kingdom-wars-no-cheat-game-guide-part-2.html


then here's her Defense Experiment..
it is easier to monitor and calculate as compared to Critical because each boost is fixed at 4 decimal places..
as an example, that plus 0.1098 in Defense can lower a base damage of 2,436 down to 2,194 and 3,480 down to 3,150..
and of course the deduction from the damage increases as the base damage also increases, especially in terms of digits...


Other Character Updates


Valkyrie at Level 20..
she's supposed to be my primary HP type character..
the cheaper shield for my Ares..
but i never had the time to bring her to maximum level..

plus, i have prepared her Powerstone Reinforcement Limit..
i wanted to use 100 Powerstones to boost her Defense...


Alpha..
as you can see, you can exchange a Super Legend character for 180,000 Gold..

Alpha at Level 35..
the stats looks very tough, but his weakness is his being a melee-type..
he can easily get killed in higher levels in Endless mode, that is why he is still not my main attacker..
but his Movement Speed and high HP makes him a good shield for my Ares as well..

i have also prepared his Powerstone Reinforcement Limit..
he is already a very reliable Castle-breaker, so i was only aiming to boost his Defense as well...


Greed at Level 35..
he replaced the Infiltrator for my Runners upon reaching this level...


Tachyon Wolf at Level 20..
i was not able to bring him up to his maximum level..
but at Level 20, he already has higher stats as compared to my beast Runners; Greed and Gorgon...


Kingdom Axe..
the replacement for my Golem..

Kingdom Axe at Level 35..
i brought him up to his maximum level because i didn't expect that the Kingdom General is actually stronger than him..
i also really like his gladiator-inspired armor..
you can just rely on Gold to fully level up your Rare characters..
i used up about 60 Million Gold in order to bring him up to Level 35...


Kingdom General at Level 35..
he may look small, with less reach (which i think doesn't necessarily apply)..
but he actually has higher Attack and HP stats compared to Kingdom Axe..
he is in my team because he also has higher stats as compared to my Level 20 Valkyrie..
i have used up about 140 Million Gold in order to bring him up to Level 35...

and so, that would be my final report regarding my journey in the game of Kingdom Wars...

Axie Infinity: The Beginning

Axie Infinity:


again, i would like to apologize for the lack of Star Wars-related update..
i just find it hard searching for my target action figures nowadays...

anyway, back to topic..
so i have decided to invest in this cryptocurrency-based game..
since i know some people who are already earning from it...


here's the team that i bought, directly from another player that i know of..
an AAP composition (Aquatic, Aquatic, Plant)..
it's not a team with pure genes..
and i don't have an Axie with 0-energy attack or 0-energy energy gainer..
it is worth Php 70,000 during my time of purchase, as compared to a team of Chopsuey which costs about Php 55,000 back then..
how i wish i was able to buy a team when they were still around Php 30,000 only..
but seriously, do these guys look like a Php 70,000 worth of investment...??


my Plant (Tank)..
with a carrot stuck on its butt..
does it look like a Php 23,000 plus pet..??
damn!
my smartphone is only Php 6,000, and i bought a really expensive digital pet like this...?


my mid Aquatic (Attacker/Blocker)..
does it look like a Php 23,000 plus pet...??


my back row Aquatic (Primary Attacker)..
does it look like a Php 23,000 plus pet...??


here's my very first completion of the Daily Quest...


here's my very first completion of the 100 Smooth Love Potion (SLP) quota in Adventure mode...


then here's my very first earning of the 150 SLP minimum daily quota...

i just hope that i'd be able to reach my ROI (Return on Investment) soon enough...
