News is spreading like wildfire across Praetoria: the Order of the Scale, the engimatic organization that runs the Arena Games, is releasing a brand new set of reward cards to accompany the Rebellion set!
At the start of the season on Thursday, August 15th, you can use Glint to obtain these new soulbound cards from rarity draws and loot chests in your local Reward Shop.
Meanwhile, Chaos Legion soulbound reward cards will go out of print and no longer be available in the Reward Shop. Instead, you'll be able to UNBIND them. Cards that have been fully unbound may be purchased, sold, rented, traded, delegated, or even used as workers on land.
It's the end of an era but the beginning of an exciting new one. Read on for all the details so you're ready for it!
Rebellion's reward card expansion will be the same size as Chaos Legion's:
On top of that, it comes with four new abilities sure to shake up the meta. Check 'em out.
At the beginning of round 2 and each following round, gain a random ability from the enemy team. 25% chance to gain a random ability from an attacker when hit. Dispel removes one mimicked ability in the order they were gained. Debilitations, Targeting abilities, Ambush, Weapons Training, Flank, Reach, Charge, and Taunt cannot be mimicked.
Each round, restore 70% of max health to allied units, rounded down. Each time a unit is healed, its max health is reduced by 1.
If the target has 2 or less health after a successful attack, perform another attack against the same unit.
Always targets enemy units with Flying first regardless of abilities or rulesets. +2 damage if the target has Flying.
With the Rebellion reward cards, we're also introducing Debilitations, which damage or inflict negative status effects on allies instead of enemies. Cards with Debilitations generally have higher stats for their mana cost; you'll have decide if the drawback is worth the extra punch they pack.
We're releasing three Debilitations with the Rebellion reward cards.
Reapplies Burning at the beginning of each round. Burning has a 33% chance to spread to adjacent units at the beginning of each round, then all Burning units lose 2 health. Burning can be cleansed.
Deals 1 damage to all allied units at the beginning of each round.
Each round, Weary units have a 10% chance to become Exhausted. This chance increases by 10% every round, up to a maximum of 80%. Exhausted units skip their turn and cannot Retaliate.
Initially, Rebellion reward cards will be soulbound (they can't be bought, sold, rented, traded, delegated, or used on land or in Conflicts), and they can only be found via rarity draws and loot chests in your local Reward Shop. But, like Chaos Legion's soulbound reward cards, you'll be able to unbind them when they go out of print.
When Rebellion's reward cards are released on August 15th, you'll be able to unbind your Chaos Legion soulbound reward cards. Once unbound, these cards can be bought, sold, rented, traded, delegated, and used on land.
For the first 29 days, it will cost 10 times a card's power-per-BCX in Dark Energy Crystals (DEC) to unbind it.
For example, for the first 29 days, a max-level regular-foil Drybone Raider will cost 55,000 DEC (11 BCX * 500 power * 10) to unbind.
Because the cost to unbind cards is based on power-per-BCX, you are not penalized when you unbind max-level cards, which receive a power bonus.
Additionally, it will not cost more to unbind cards combined over their maximum BCX. In other words, it will cost the same to unbind a regular-foil Drybone Raider with 11 BCX as one with 12 or more BCX.
Other examples:
Additionally, every 30 days, the price to unbind a card will increase by a multiple of one.
After 180 days, Chaos Legion reward cards will no longer be unbindable and will be permanently soulbound.
Rather than flooding the market with a deluge of cheap reward cards, these unbinding costs are comparable to the current market value of most Rebellion cards. We feel this pricing model is in the best interest of our players, as unbound reward cards will likely be scarce and highly valuable. This should prevent a drop in the floor price of cards and ensure players' collections retain their value.
Note that all DEC spent to unbind cards will be permanently burned and removed from the circulating supply.
If an unbound card is combined with a soulbound card, the new card will be soulbound. To unbind it, you'll need to pay the remainder of the unbinding fee. For example, if you combine 3 unbound BCX of a gold-foil legendary card with a soulbound BCX, the new card will be soulbound, and you'll need to pay 12,500 times the current multiplier in DEC to unbind it.
Soulbound cards are burned for Glint, while unbound cards are burned for DEC.
The Rebellion reward cards are an exciting new expansion that introduces whole new levels of strategy and depths of lore to the Splinterlands. We can't wait for you to get your hands on them. The artwork is beautiful, the lore builds on the core set and Conflicts, and (most importantly) it's gonna be awesome when you use 'em to lay the smack down on your fellow battle mages in the arena!
And with the ability to unbind Chaos Legion's soulbound reward cards, you'll not only be able to sell, rent, trade, and delegate your cards or put them to work on land, but you'll finally be able to get those elusive cards lady luck denied you!
