⚡️ AMA Summary ⚡️

Vouchers:

  • People who stake over 1M SPS will not be capped on how many vouchers they earn anymore
    • This was to prevent Matt and Aggy from earning too many vouchers in the early stages of the Voucher token airdrops
    • Now, it hinders big SPS buyers as they had to create multiple accounts to stake their full amount of SPS
    • This change was released right before the last Voucher airdrop

Waka Spiritblade Sale:

  • There is no limit to how many Waka Spiritblade cards a single person can buy
    • People would just make multiple accounts if this restriction was enforced
  • There will be no restriction for bots to buy the cards
    • The price requirements are enough of a gatekeeper to prevent someone buying all the cards
  • The new Special Shop page is the default view currently
    • It is a temporary page to promote the current colloboration with Waka
    • Will default back to the Chaos Legion page once the promotion ends/sells out

Mobile App Development:

  • Aggroed wants to spin up a whole mobile development team, but still being discussed
  • New development would replace the current mobile app
  • Reminder, there is already a v2.0 of the current browser application being built that will be more scalable and more mobile-friendly

Skins:

  • Team would love to introduce more skins but it is more complicated than just releasing the new artwork
  • Would like to transition into animations
  • Don't want a ton of skins released to distract people from understanding the different characters
  • All artwork in new card sets will be created with skins in mind
    • Foundation will be set to make skin releases simple and quick

Revisions To Reward System:

  • There are different phases planned for revising the reward system
  • Modern/Wild ranked formats will probably be the first step to improving the reward system
  • No ETA on when full revisions will be rolled out
