A philosopher once said, “Playing Axie Infinity is a piece of cake, you can master that and earn overnight.” After a week of playing, he did experience the worst nightmare of his lifetime.
The emergence of Axie Infinity this early 2021 brought words and phrases that might sound alienated to the common folks. These are terms that one would frequently encounter in the community like SLP, AXS, PvE, PvP and the most critical and pivotal one…MMR.
In arena, one is playing against other players (PvP) in the Axie Infinity (Lunacia). A player will be matched with players of the same skill level through what is known as Match Making Rating (MMR).
What’s does MMR has to do with a player’s fate? In layman’s term, in every win, one’s MMR increases, and for every loss, it decreases. The amount of SLP you can gain in Arena (PvP) depends on a player’s MMR.
A dedicated and diligent player has no limit in elevating his/her MMR which greatly depends on luck and strategy. A player has to be prepared with only two possible scenarios: a run or a bum.
At the time of writing, Axie Infinity released Version 1.1.0a Update in which one of the most talked of the town features pertains to MMR.
“Accounts under 800 MMR will no longer receive SLP from adventure, arena, or the daily quest.”
(Axie Infinity Team, October 15, 2021)
The are multiple future implications that the aforementioned update would bring to the Axie Infinity ecosystem. One thing is for sure, the managers, scholars, small time players, and the whole community need to step up and elevate their “a game”.
If one couldn’t smell blood right now, it’s time to toughen his/her senses. Who would say now that Axie Infinity is a no-brainer? The challenge is up and it’s time to take it up a notch.
