The first major event in the new hive based sports game.
For those of you that don't know about the game it's a soccer manager simulator in association with the MLSPA form the team that brought us splinterlands.
Or according to the official site:
The creators of Splinterlands and Genesis League Sports have partnered with Major League Soccer Players Association (MLSPA) to create a rapid tactic strategy game that will utilize NFTs, cryptocurrency, and the Hive blockchain. Genesis League Goals uses the Major League Soccers Players Association roster. It puts two players head-to-head in short cycle gameplay sessions.
I haven't kept up to date with most of the developments to date but it sounds like splinterlands with soccer players instead of monsters.
I'm hoping that it will be a bit more than that but it's what i read from the updates.
As per usual I bought into the game early for 110 packs to get a few of the presale incentives.
Now we finally have pack openings, it's time to see my first few packs and cards.
I will open five individually and another 25 in bulk to see what comes out.
Pack openings.
I like the opening sequence and graphics but wasn't a fan of the card reveal itself. Not half as exciting as the splinterlands pack openings and i don't even know if i have good cards. There are coaches, gold cards and regular but it's hard to know what i'm even looking for.
Coaches are always good to collect but some of them don't fit the game compared to the players cars that are fifa like in appearance. Then some of the coaches are very computer generated.
Then the players cards with level on the top left. Playing stats on the bottom and apperantly equipment slots on the back.
There is still a lot left for the team to do but so far i'm underwhelmed by the cards and what the gameplay looks to become. Not what i was hoping for.
I will still stick with what i have and try to move up the ranks when the time comes so hopefully there is a lot more to come form the team.
