Absolutely agree with you both. I was considering purchasing SPS as a new player to stake, as I really enjoy the game. But SPS is already double the price of what others have bought for, which means if rewards are allocated based on SPS staking amount, those who bought in early are already so far ahead there is no way to close this gap.

I enjoy the game, I want to purchase these packs to get new cards so I can progress. I've been playing for a month and am still under 800 power level so I can't even progress to bronze level 2. There are very limited opportunities to increase my own position that don't involve spending thousands and thousands for a slight chance to increase. This is a very demoralising situation after thinking I could really enjoy and benefit from this pre-sale of the packs
