RE: Announcing 21 New Reward Cards

in #splinterlands3 years ago

The cards are great and I can't wati to use the new abilities but why is the math based on Max level cards when most of these cards will never be combined even once and most players don't play at max levels?

You guys are going to bury us with the amount of CL cards released aren't you?

Sort:  

In order to get a max level card you have to spend a bunch of money on other cards to get max summoners. It might not seem like a big deal to people who are running around with level 2 and 3 summoners but making sure there aren’t too many max level cards is important. There aren’t that many people with decks at max levels. Don’t want to make too many cards so that everyone can max a card just by playing. With my account the way it is, the highest I have gotten to in a cards print series is level 8 without buying any. If we print way more then even someone in gold league could max a card which would ruin the long term sustainability of the game in my opinion.

I just think they are printing too much all the way around. This game was built for a few thousands daily active accounts and even right now that its grown to 215k active accounts we are still buried in inventory. Whales sitting on mountains of unused cards while thousands of even the most popular cards sit idle on the rental markets. Look how many of each of these epic cards are currently sitting on the market unrented. And there are hundreds more for sale. Now they think we need even higher numbers because player growth? They need to be really careful here because without scarcity, people lose interest. We have enough cards in the game right now for probably 1 million players. I have hundreds of copies of "rare" cards I haven't even bothered trying to rent out because price is already pinned to the floor with 1000 copies competing for .1 dec and most sitting idle. Why add mine too? And I am small compared to some of these accounts that are 20x my size but aren't playing 1/100th of their decks and would crush the market if they tried to rent them out. The idea now that we will issue based on how many maxxed out cards it will create when most cards don't get combined ever is just weird to me and dangerous.
