My First Legendary Card 🤘

in #steemmonsters5 years ago

I won a booster card after finishing last night's quest "Win 10 battles with the death splinter". I went to open it at once, card by card. Guess what the first four cards weren't that special, but when I got to the last one, it didn't open normally. It started shaking for a while. I knew that was a good sign (I'm not that new to the game lol) but when it opened I was disappointed at first. The card belongs to the Dragon element group and I don't have the summoner of that element so it won't be possible for me to use it. Plus, unlike the rare and the epic cards, it has nothing that says it's a legendary one (in my defense lol).

Then, I got this idea of checking the card in the market, it's parity and all. I mean there has to be something special about it, otherwise why the shaking and the suspense?

Ah and I forgot to mention it's a gold card ;) (Gold+Dragon... any normal person should get the hint. Somehow I didn't)

The market said there are only 31 of those cards in existence. Only 4 of them are for sale. Their price goes from 850$ to 1499$ (wow!) You can imagine what I felt at that point :D



I'd like to thank @littlescribe and @coruscate for getting me in the steemmonsters world when when they sent me 4 booster packs as a gift during a @steemmonstershow back when battles haven't started yet. And of course @nomadicsoul for the 15 packs that hugely enforced my teams to make it possible to win battles and quests and claim more packs ;)

Now what?

Now I have no idea what to do with this card that can't fit in any of my "teams" lol Any suggestions?
Ah and is that price in the market really a thing? I mean is there really people willing to buy cards with that kind of prices?!

Yes, those market prices are real. They don't move quickly though.

Congrats!

Yep it will sell eventually the promos are what are in demand right now haha the gold dragon is powerful though in a lot of top decks.

Wow! A golden Gold Dragon! That's indeed a rare collectible!

;) yeah it made my day

I would talk to either @davemccoy or @o07. They'll take good care of you and make sure you make the best choices. I would personally recommend hanging on to it for a little while and let it garner value. And then, sell it when the time feels right. You won't likely be playing gold games or leveling up that card. There are those who will, though. And they'll want it. And it will be worth more as the prize money comes pouring in. So hang onto it at least through January, is my advice. But I'm not a financial advisor by any stretch. That's just my basic opinion.

Also, will you come on the show Wednesday and talk about it? We'd love to celebrate your wonderful acquisition! Maybe see if there are some opinions in there that will help steer you in a good direction to keep that sucker safe!

That is a brilliant advice thank you. And yes I'll do my best to join the show I've missed too many of those already 🙈

Congrats on your first gold card.

Also, we've highlighted you on our @steemmonstershow page, and I've asked Steem Monsters to resteem your post. I think this is pretty fun.

Thank you so much you're making me feel the happiness all over again :D

Awww. We feel it for you.

Grats on getting the gold card! They are always cool to get.

Thank you :)
I hope you get yours real soon ;)

I saw that in the Steem Monsters discord. Meant to say BADASS! Only way I know to summon dragons is with Selenia. Also have to pick gold cards when making your deck/hand. Can use both normal and foils together in a hand/deck.

Or just watch it decorating my collection until I find out what I can do with it lol

Nice Job man! Keep it up! And keep playing!

That's a wicked rare card to pick up in a booster deck, congrats! The price is the price, and that is what they are really selling them for. Now whether anyone will actually be willing to buy it is another question. There are quite a few crypto millionaires on Steemit, and a few who play Monsters, so you never know! Either way it's a sweet find and great for you :)

It is yes ;)
we'll see where this leads :)
