Splinterlands Grand Prix Concludes with Rookie Champion

The Obsessive Skins collection has been removed from Ultimate Chests in Splinterlands. **What Changed:** - Obsessive Skins are no longer available in Ultimate Chests - Players who obtained these skins during the availability period are being congratulated **Still Available:** - Sweetheart skins remain purchasable in the Rewards Shop **Context:** This follows a similar pattern from October 2025, when Hallows Fall skins were removed from Ultimate Chests after the last copies were claimed. Limited-edition skin collections appear to rotate through the game's chest system before being retired. Players interested in collecting limited skins should check the Rewards Shop for current offerings.

The Splinterlands community has burned over 1,000,000 vouchers to acquire the exclusive Cloveria card, demonstrating strong collector engagement in the blockchain-based trading card game. **Key Details:** - Over 1 million vouchers burned for the Cloveria voucher card - The card is described as having "glass-cannon assassin" characteristics - Community participation remains active with no signs of slowing - Previous voucher card Ulfga the Blighted saw 938 copies sold with 1.4M vouchers burned **About the Mechanism:** Voucher burning is a deflationary mechanic where players exchange vouchers to obtain exclusive cards, reducing the total supply while rewarding engaged collectors. Splinterlands operates on blockchain technology, offering players true ownership of their digital card assets through Web3 gaming infrastructure.
