New players(under 3 months) don't be sucked in by the scarcity fear tactics used to drive pack sales near the end of its sell life we heard all these same points before for alpha when the were running out and it's been a year now and look at the alpha market. 10s of thousands of cards still plenty avalible to buy at reasonable prices at 1/3rd the card count. Once betas sell out therell be a spike in sales but it'll level out and then increase slowly like alphas did. Also don't be fooled by the promises of player expansion 10x we have been at this for over a year now we've seen the rise of adding random battle conflicts,reward cards,tournaments,tron players,dec,and guilds and the total population has increased maybe 2x since 1st month of battles went live. And while that is a great accomplishment if all of those things only doubled our playerbase i dont honestly see the coming changes turning that an additional 10x anytime soon. Have fun but be weary of great old uncle aggroeds wild claims of fame riches and glory only those at the top will be seeing anywhere close to a great payday.
I guess that an app version is going to drive adoption. Most people want to play on mobile. I know I would like that

This is true. Aggroed is supposedly in charge of marketing and has made promises all year long about how the game is going to grow but it's just promises. His only strategy is to bring in a small number of whales. Honestly, I think they're facing issues with not being able to scale this quickly on the steem platform and so they are stalling for time, while stringing all of us investors along. They haven't made a single effort all year to gain one bit of media coverage, despite the launch of the tournaments, the rental market, the DEC, etc. Every time a newsworthy event comes along they stick their hands under their asses and sit on it. The promise of an imminent 10X of the user base is probably illegal, because it's not just a forward looking statement and they aren't actually taking any sort of significant action to create that outcome anytime in the near future. This game is going to remain niche. Gods Unchained and other competitors were behind Splinterlands earlier this year but are now almost ready to begin scaling their userbases and generating lots and lots of media coverage. It's a straight up lie for aggroed to claim this game will be increasing by 10X in the near future.
