SPS Management Page -> SPS


Brawls:

  • Team is currently working on SPS rewards for Brawls
    • Backend code is complete, remaining focus is on the UI elements
    • SPS Brawl rewards will be given out as Staked SPS, not liquid (like Ranked rewards)
    • There will be a fixed amount of SPS available for each Brawl Tier

      • This amount will be split out between the five tiers

SPS Governance Proposals:

  • First version of SPS Governance Proposals goes live tomorrow!
    • Only the Splinterland team will be able to make Governance Proposals starting off
    • Anyone that has SPS staked will be able to vote on every proposal
    • The amount of staked SPS you have determines the weight of your vote
    • This allows the community to help make decisions rather than only the Splinterlands company
  • Future iterations will allow community members to create proposals as well
  • Example proposals:
    • Brawl Fray changes (less Gold foil frays, higher level frays, etc...)
    • More or less rewards for certain tournaments?

⚑️ Q&A Summary ⚑️

SPS Ranked Rewards:

  • Leaderboard rewards will be SPS, not DEC
  • SPS rewards will be given out in staked SPS
    • This concept was adopted by HIVE
    • SPS Staking is going to be critical in earning rewards so earning staked SPS will be a good start to prepare for that
  • SPS rewards will be gauged by how much SPS you have staked in the near-future
    • Before this can be released, the team wants to get SPS Delegations out first

Training Grounds:

  • Team has always wanted a Training Grounds that lets players customize Challenges/Practice Mode
  • Players could pick specific rule sets and mana caps
  • Could probably allow Ghost Card formats as well so new players can practice with cards before knowing what to buy/rent

Jacek - CL Fire Legendary Summoner Airdrop:

  • Currently selling around 10k CL packs per day
    • Only around 291k packs left before the Jacek airdrop


Riftwatchers:

  • Presale will last until the limited amount of packs are purchased
  • Plan seems to be still only 3M total RW packs
  • Official information should all be announced in the RW whitepaper
  • Aggy thinks at least 20% of the RW packs will require vouchers
  • There are multiple new abilities being introduced with the Riftwatchers set

SPL Arcade - Tower Defense Game:

  • Towers will be separate NFTs in the game
    • However, you may be able to stake SPL cards on the towers to power them up
