The Diamond Dragon Revealed + Airdrop Info!

in splinterlands •  5 years ago 

The first of 14 Untamed airdrops should be available to claim in the next day or two, so we wanted to provide some additional information about the airdrop process.

But first, we would like to present the first Untamed airdrop card - the Legendary Diamond Dragon!

Diamond Dragon

Tulafra, The Diamond Dragon, is not actually made of diamonds; she is simply named for her nearly indestructible exoskeleton. She is not the strongest or largest of the Dragons, but she is difficult to bring down in battle. She lives in a huge ground floor penthouse of Centrum City.

The Diamond Dragon's "indestructable exoskeleton" gives her a whopping 10 Armor which will make her pretty strong against Melee and Ranged attacks and even Magic in certain rulesets. In addition to the Flying, Slow, and Cleanse abilities, she also is the second monster card to have the new Last Stand ability which will give her a 50% boost to all stats if she is the only monster on the team left alive.

Airdrop Info

The Diamond Dragon will be initially released via an airdrop. Anyone who bought Untamed edition booster packs within the first 100,000 sold, or anyone who received Untamed edition booster packs from the recent crowdfunding campaign will be eligible for the airdrop.

Once the airdrop begins later this week, anyone with eligible pack purchases will see an option to claim their airdrop rewards in the Shop page of the game website. Please note that potions will not be enabled for airdropped cards, so the chances of receiving a card and of the card being gold will be the default, non-potion values.

When you claim your airdrop through the website, you will submit a transaction to the Steem blockchain which will determine what, if any, airdropped cards you will receive. Just like with opening packs (and pretty much everything else in the game), we have no control over the results and everyone has equal and fair chances of receiving the airdropped cards based on the number of eligible packs purchased.

Once you have claimed your airdrop any cards received will be added to your collection automatically and there will be a link available where you can see the blockchain data from your transaction and verify the results.

The second Untamed airdrop for the Gloridax Guardian card is expected to take place by the end of next week, and then going forward the remaining airdrops should take place shortly after each set of 100,000 Untamed booster packs are sold.

Good Luck!

We want to wish everyone who has made purchases eligible for the first airdrop good luck, and also thank you for your support of the game! If you don't get lucky in the first airdrop, remember that your purchases are automatically eligible for the 13 additional Untamed airdrops that are coming up!


Stay tuned for more updates from the Splinterlands!

Very cool I bought packs but I know it wasn't that many so we will see if I get lucky.

What is exactly % probability of getting airdrop card? Let's say per 100 packs.

It's a 0.8% chance that any card will be legendary, so each pack has 5 chances, but also that's a 0.8% chance that the card will be any legendary, not necessarily the Diamond Dragon. The Diamond Dragon will be 1 of 12 possible legendary cards currently available in the Untamed set, so the math works out to about a 0.333% chance of each pack getting a Diamond Dragon.

There are around 200k packs eligible (between packs purchased through the site and the crowdfund) so there should be around 650 Diamond Dragons airdropped in total and ~13 gold foil versions, although that number can vary significantly.

Then going forward Diamond Dragons will be able to be obtained by opening packs just like all of the other cards in the set.

I think it would be 0.8% as all legendaries?

That’s some serious math! 😝

1 doubt... May i have to have legendary and gold potions to open my aidroped cards?

So, is there a way to defeat a deck with that beast? I mean does it have any weakness?

Decent stats, fingers crossed my luck shines on me and I get one from the airdrop lol

Give this to me

How many cards will be airdropped for those 100,000 Packs?

How many of each cards will be dropped ? 1000, 5000, 10000 ?

That is great, new cards, this dragon is awesome

Good card for Keep your distance :D

awesome - i was only able to get like 5 packs - but i got em on first round so here's looking to get lucky ;)

I only got 2, but yeah, hope to get lucky too!

Great news that it is coming this week! Is there any data on how many will be dropped? or is it following pack chance at the .8% * Number of eligible packs? In this case, if 180,000 eligible, roughly 1440 would drop, of which 28-29 would be GF? @splinterlands

The math is a bit different. It's a 0.8% chance that any card will be legendary, so each pack has 5 chances, but also that's a 0.8% chance that the card will be any legendary, not necessarily the Diamond Dragon. The Diamond Dragon will be 1 of 12 possible legendary cards currently available in the Untamed set, so the math works out to about a 0.333% chance of each pack getting a Diamond Dragon.

Then going forward Diamond Dragons will be able to be obtained by opening packs just like all of the other cards in the set.

This is so cool. I hope to be purchasing more packs as I get some more money together. Thank you for already making this Christmas a great one. When the physical Kickstarter goodies arrive sometime next year I will be doing blog posts and DTube / 3Speak videos about them.

Splinterlands is crushing it!

Exciting times!!!!

Absolute beast in lower leagues, but not so sure in the upper leagues...
