RE: New Reward Cards & Collection Power Update

in #splinterlands4 years ago

So now that I've achieved Champion League every season I'm going back to Diamond I at most because I don't hold enough PR? Is this the update I sell off my entire collection? This will hands down differ new players from joining and will lose older legit players.

@kingkinslow... sure they will lose players that were here just for the rewards. If you achieved Champion League with Diamond level summoners (LEVEL 7 and 8 rare), then you shouldn't worry... If you achieve Champion League with Gold or Silver level summoners, then you shouldn't have been in the Champion League. They have ALWAYS had the leagues broken down by summoner size, and its only due to people exploiting the bracket creep by botting that helped everyone get out of the league they were intended to be in.

I don't know the size of your deck, but some people have argued that everyone should be in the Champion Level league since they got there by the system in place. Of course that is silly if the system in place was broken. I'm glad they are fixing the system to give everyone a more pleasurable experience. I think there will be some people that leave as you suggested, but there are also many more players that are happy about this change. The obvious flaws of low level decks getting to the higher levels made the game not sustainable. It had to be fixed and its about time they did it.

Getting in higher value league with lower value deck is not good reason for making Collection Power system. Far better is invest in making better implementation of other in-game systems. People get into Champion 3 leagu by winning battles. Guess who is picking their opponents?

Cheers!

there's more than 1 way to solve a problem. I believe this addresses one of the worst problems. Maybe there is a better way, but doing nothing was not acceptable either.

the summoners I use are all level 8, so yes I have champion status summoners. I have worked very very hard on my cards since about a month before Beta packs got released. Now just because the total value of my ALL my cards isn't up to PR? That's just absurd. This simply 100% forces people to build ALL splinters to even begin to think about moving up in ranks, any half ass good rank at least. No I am not one of those people who can't use all the splinters as I worked very very hard to achieve this. I was very close to hitting Champion I but I have no drive to take it this season. What's the point since I am sure next season it will change and at best I'll Diamond I. Sorry been selling my cards today. At most Gold I. We shall see if my collection falls to 0 cards or not.

Hey I just saw this reply and I understand your frustration. I think you would've done much better than you realized had you stuck around, but its ok as everyone has their own decision-making process. I'm sorry to see you selling all your cards, but maybe you will check back in the future and see how things went. The reason I say this is I've seen many of these types of decisions since the beginning and people "react", then see that things were better than they thought and then come back. In fact, I have been upset with the game makers many times in the past, but overtime they've fixed the flaws and/or did something better than what I anticipated. Good luck to you though however this comes out @kingkinslow!
