RE: New Reward Cards & Collection Power Update

in #splinterlands4 years ago (edited)

My L3 and L4 legendaries and high level epics and rare are being bought fast by enminers-vault. Gold ones, too.

I don't think your account is competitive in Champion ...

Yet, I did win against those guys. Won battles more than once against yabapmatt, for example. (And a lot of players with big $$$ collections).

Not only did I spend ~$500 only to find out that my cards are worth like $175 in DEC - I got lectured about not deserving to play in the Champion league... welcome to splinterlands, relax, spread your ass cheeks and open your wallet...

It doesn't matter now, I'm not playing anymore. There are some very affordable maxedout summoners on the market if you're in the buying mode 😉

Sort:  

Hey @borba, I understand your frustration at the change, but I disagree with your conclusion. Obviously it appears you have made up your mind, but if you would like an alternative take to what has happened then feel free to message me on discord (same name) ... I've been through many of these changes (some I've liked and some I haven't), but my take is 180 degrees different from you... and I'd be happy to explain my thoughts if you want to listen.

If not, I hope you do well with the selling of your cards... If you did buy them from the j69 dump then you should come out ok. That's at least one good thing about this game that everyone should agree with, when people leave they get something back instead of throwing it in the trash can!

Thanks, but I'm done with this game.

The reason I'm replying to you is that I remember you being one of the good guys helping out the newbies on Steem. Hence, my tone will be much different than the one I used in replying to the devs.

Here's my perspective:

$500 gives me a brand new 1TB PS4 loaded with the best games on the market. I can have a ton of fun for a year and then sell it for half of what I payed for it. All the while being treated as a valued customer.

Now, compare that to Splinterlands: $500 gives me $175 worth of cards (in DEC) and lectures from the devs on what I actually deserve and some insults from their bootlicking fanbase.

Ain't that a sweet deal?

As for the update, you're seeing players complaining about it but you won't see any botnet owner doing so. Makes you wonder... It's almost as if it will be buy some cards and continue the business as usual 🤣

I think $500 can get you close to 500 power points, you just have to choose the cards well. Many cards are a bit overpriced, especially summoners and alpha cards, and this is partly because of their collectible aspect. But to reach Champion League you need more competitive cards and not collection cards which are more to speculate with their prices.
