Today's Giveaway
Comment your general thoughts on the updates.(It is what it is)
Major Updates and Announcements
ΛZMΛRÉ Dice will be the orb replacement. It contains 20 cards considered promo cards. It will contain 6 summoners and there will be a total of three new ability's. One cool thing is these will only be purchable via DEC. Why is that cool? It means we should see a nice spike in DEC price and any time a crypro is given a new use case it means a more stable market. The ETA for the dice to drop is within a month so start playing, earning, and saving that purple rock. The same sort of air drop system will be implemented for ΛZMΛRÉ Dice that is used with untamed booster packs.
Effective immediately potions will no longer be usable for reward cards. That means daily quest and end of season reward cards. Although I have the option not to use them already I feel like for new players this sucks. I how ever do understand that they want to promote the potion use to people and players who buy packs . This is also a good way to prevent bot farming of these cards. Now accounts with lots of bots will have to buy packs or Dice to use the potions. I really hope they decide to lower the amount of potions in rewards as i have received more than half potions on one season rewards. I have also gone 2 days only receiving potions. My big worry is the reward amount will drastically go down as legendary and gold foil cards will not be in the mix as much. As mentioned above I save my potions for packs already and with my last 200 potions I have received only one legendary and no gold foil card. That makes those 200 potions have a zero value. Giving more incentive for buying packs is good but now when it takes another incentive away. My last 20 packs opened with both potions for every card has had an average value of .18 usd. In DEC that comes to 350 DEC but backs cost 2000 plus another 80 for potions. Keep in mind with is over my last 20 packs not just one or even five unlucky pulls. This is what worries me.
Tournament Currencies is another thing in the works. Put simply they want to allow players to be able to use many different currencies for entry fees and prizes. This is cool but I would also like to see a o DEC creation fee for tournaments with large prize pools. Not deserving of its own bullet point but good news none the less @splinterlands is now accepting EOS for all game purchases.
That's it for today my friends I hope you learned a thing or two about the future of splinterlands. You can click here to support me via affliate programhttps://steemmonsters.com?ref=threejay , give an upvote or just spread the word.
