Splinterlands is one of the best Play2arn games on Hive Blockchain where a lot of people have gained quite a good amount of game assets. From this season Splinterlands team has updated the game to the new ranked battle rewards update. The update was quite smooth and we have not faced any downtime even though it was quite a big update.
With the new update, people who only have stater cards were not able to mean much of the chest rewards whereas players who actively play the Splinterlands from the days of Alpha, and Beta have quite a good number of Gold Cards and can able to earn more Chest up to 30. So after playing it for 2 days I can say that yes, the rewards have increased a little but again we have to spend as well as win quite a good number of games to get the same chest which we were getting earlier.
So now instead of daily quests, we have Focus Challenge where we have to collect the Season and Focus points every time we win. And these points determine the number of rewards chests you can collect. So now we have to win more to get more points and thus get more chest rewards also we have to keep a tab on Enerecy Capture Rate because if the ECR decreases we will get fewer points.
Now it feels like you have to play almost 2 to 3 times the time you used to play before to get the same amount of chests. I am currently playing in Silver 2, and thus for getting the 3 Chest Rewards I have to win more than 20 games previously it used to be just 5 games to get daily rewards.
For me, I am eyeing the same number of Chests like 3 as before and in the season little more than 15 should be good enough for me. The rewards have been a little better than the Daily Quests but we have to see the season rewards to actually see how good they are.
Do you like the new rewards system?
