The Next Colony final season, Omega, is here!
Launched last night at 19h, the prize pool consists of 42,800 STEEM, including 15,000 STEEM for first place! That's a $2,700 first prize at today's prices!
As I am competing, I decided to have a look at the contenders to rate my chances.
As most players will be up and running already, I started by pulling all the successful Yamato upgrade transactions from the first 18 hours of the season and counted the number of Yamatos each player is upgrading.
I then cross-referenced against their stardust holdings.
Here are the results!
For those players not in the top 150 Stardust holders I did not include their Stardust holdings.
It's far from a perfect analysis:
Some of the top Stardust holders do not appear to have started - but may be planning to use their Stardust for another player or alt.
Most players won't have started burning all their planets yet - but will undoubtedly do so before the end of the season.
Still it gives a good indication of the size of the task in hand.
To get in the top 10 I think you will need 5 or 10 million Stardust to fuel the Yamato upgrades.
As a level 20 Yamato requires 609,400 Stardust for full upgrade, that means 9 - 18 Yamatos, all secured. A sizeable task!
I will not be winning! But with 650 Steem for 20th place there's certainly something to aim at!
Good luck everyone!
