This article will focus on the newly announced daily P2E for GU. A long time in the making and imperative for the overall success of the game, daily GODS rewards go live August 31st. Previously, GODS could only be earned in weekend ranked events for earning a certain number of weekend battles. Grinding during the week offered minimal benefit except for Core packs. The main things we will breakdown in the article is how the rewards will work and what deck composition gives you the best reward for your time. There may even be a dark horse card that can really change your overall daily rewards at the end of the article. If you would like to read the full announcement, here is a link to the blog post https://blog.godsunchained.com/2022/08/22/daily-play-and-earn/
Fragments
Fragments will be what is used to measure your daily rewards. These are earned only through winning matches and you will have the ability to earn fragments up until the 10th match of the day win or lose. The first three wins of the day will offer double the amount of fragments. Looking at this information, winning your first three matches off the greatest reward for your time and will be the main goal for all players. Rewards will be claimed the next day and it will take 7 days to claim your GODS tokens so as not to allow for bot activity.
Deck Composition
Put simply, the higher quantity of high quality cards offer the greatest fragment bonus. You MUST have at the very least a full meteorite deck. Even one non-meteorite card dumps the overall rewards you can receive. Mixing decks is where I think the big play is. Having even one or two diamond cards in your deck can give you an extra boost along with gold cards as well. Shadow cards seem to only be a benefit if you can have a complete deck set. My goal is to look at cheap neutral diamond cards that can see play in a variety of decks and give a boost to my fragment rewards. Not to give too much away before I can purchase, here is one card I feel is a nice addition to any deck and a nice value at diamond.
Larcenous Imp
The imp is currently valued at just below $6 at diamond. A gold imp will cost you .88cents so some quick math gets you paying approximately one dollar more for diamond quality. That will pay for itself within the first few days of P2E in my opinion given the diamond boost. This card by no means is meta defining or deck altering however relics are sprinkled throughout all gods and having one of these cards in your lineup does not hurt. The value of 2 mana 2 strength 3 health is also quite good for the early game especially with buff cards throughout war, deception, and nature.
Hopefully this overview gets you all even more excited for the changes ahead and consistent earning potential. Now is the time to adjust your decks accordingly as prices will rise once the full formula is tested and players learn the best combos to have in your deck.
