Splinterlands, the Hive‑based auto‑battler strategy card game, announced that its annual Dragon’s Feast event will begin on November 17 and run through the end of the season on November 30. The holiday‑themed update brings 30 new skins for 15 characters, a fresh battle modifier called Everyone Feasts, and a substantial increase in skin drop rates across reward chests.

New skins and collections

The skins are split into two themed collections. The Bountiful set features warm, autumn‑inspired outfits, while the Wyrmtouched set offers darker, dragon‑infused designs. All 30 skins are fully tradable on the Hive blockchain. Nine Bountiful skins are available for purchase in the Rewards Shop using Glint, the in‑game currency earned from ranked battles, with prices ranging from 500 Glint for common skins to 20,000 Glint for legendary ones. Two additional characters, Spellmonger and Giam Root, can be bought in the Sparks Shop for 10,000 Sparks each.

Everyone Feasts modifier

The event’s headline mechanic, Everyone Feasts, grants every unit Life Leech and Scavenger, allowing cards to drain opponent health and grow stronger as enemies fall. The official announcement cautions that “a full belly does not guarantee victory,” noting the modifier’s impact on strategy. This follows the November 10 update that introduced Plague Rot, which reverses Life Leech and Scavenger effects.

Chest drop rates and Frontier rewards

Splinterlands has expanded its chest rewards for the event. Minor chests now have a 0.3% drop rate and contain 410 skin copies, Major chests a 0.125% rate with 100 copies, and Ultimate chests a 0.5% rate also with 100 copies. Across all chest tiers, 840 skin copies are available, a significant rise from the 270 limited‑edition skins offered in 2025. Frontier players receive exclusive skins through advancement and Jackpot chests, with a 1% drop rate for 230 Frontier‑specific skins.

Stickers, streamer incentives, and event logistics

The Rewards Shop will also sell themed stickers for 200 DEC each, featuring holiday designs such as a cherry‑pie‑loving dragon and foil‑finished graphics. Splinterlands plans to distribute 10 Wyrmtouched Runeseer Sevaya skins and exclusive stickers to streamers, who can request additional community rewards by November 17. Players are advised to wait until after the November 17 maintenance window before opening reward chests, as new skins will only appear in chests after that point.

What to watch next

The community will be monitoring how the Everyone Feasts modifier reshapes deck building and whether the increased chest drop rates lead to higher secondary market activity for the new skins. Additionally, the upcoming Starlight Frontier card set, announced in the prior Hallow’s Fall update, may interact with the event’s mechanics, offering further strategic depth.
