> how to win a gas war on an nft drop 101 (as someone who wins 99.8% of them):
Stage 1: Preparation
> open the drop website on tab 1
> find and open the drop’s contract on etherscan on tab 2
> open gasnow.org on tab 3
Stage 2: Minting

Stage 2: Minting
a thread:
> try to mint from website normally, enter amount to mint and hit mint
> metamask comes up, Hit “Edit” next to the estimated gas
> click advancd options
> Enter the figure you see as Rapid on gasnow.org into both boxes (i usually do 100-300 higher just to be safe)

> Enter the figure you see as Rapid on gasnow.org into both boxes (i usually do 100-300 higher just to be safe)
>check on gasnow, if the “Rapid” fee increases much higher than what you put, go into your pending tx on metamask and speed up to the new Rapid fee same steps as above.
> give it a few seconds to a min and your tx should be confirmed

Stage 2 Scenario 2: Website broken/not working from mad hype
> Pull up the etherscan contract tab for the drop and connect wallet (i.e time nft drop)
> Goto Contract Tab, Goto Write Contract
> look for a “mint/buy” function in this case: “mintToken” is obviously it
> Pull up the etherscan contract tab for the drop and connect wallet (i.e time nft drop)
> Goto Contract Tab, Goto Write Contract

> usually there’s 2 fields in 99% of contracts, “payableAmount (ether)” and “amount (uint8)”
> Enter how many tokens you want to mint (less than the max per tx) in “amount”
> Enter the ether price per token * how many you minting in “payableAmount”
For example with time drop:
> Enter how many tokens you want to mint (less than the max per tx) in “amount”
> Enter the ether price per token * how many you minting in “payableAmount”
For example with time drop:
> i enter 0.1 in first box and 1 in second box to mint 1 time nft
because price per nft is 0.1
> i enter 0.5 in first box and 5 in second box to mint 5 time nfts (0.1 price * 5 to mint)
> i enter 1 in first box and 10 in second box to mint 10 time nfts (0.1 price * 10 to mint)
because price per nft is 0.1
> i enter 0.5 in first box and 5 in second box to mint 5 time nfts (0.1 price * 5 to mint)
> i enter 1 in first box and 10 in second box to mint 10 time nfts (0.1 price * 10 to mint)
> hit Write and and the metamask box would pop up (just like with website mint)
> Follow the same instructions as i mentioned earlier in this thread to put in the right gas, and monitor it to speed up transaction as needed
Congrats you won a gas war 🎉

To add: A popular way projects use to avoid gas wars is to have a whitelist for early supporters of the project which guarantees whitelisted addresses a minting chance over a longer period of time before the public mint.
For instance @BaddiesNFT just dropped their whitelist form in the discord and once it’s closed, All addresses whitelisted will get a guaranteed minting allocation for 24 hours before launch to give early supporters a way to mint without gas wars
