Hi evenryone, I wanted to share my opinion regarding the publication of the new in Splinterlands Ranked Rewards Update and the impact it will have on the platform, you can also participate in the weekly splinterlands challenge and win a juicy reward, More information in the next link Splinterlands Social Media Challenge!
Rental Market
I think the changes in the first place will significantly reduce the number of cards in the rental market currently, I am only renting for guild battles because it is not profitable to rent many cards even though it is very cheap, with the new updates in ranked battles, I feel compelled and motivated to rent to win many battles reach higher leagues and get better rewards and on top of that I feel motivated to place some repeat cards on the rental market to earn some Dec.
I think the second impact on the updates in ranked battles will be the increase in card sales at least Lvl 1 I think all players want to avoid playing with starting cards so as not to lose profits and we are all forced to do it, it will also speed up the process of sales of the chaos legion pack especially new players
The market has already started to heat up only with the ads, the rental market will heat up but at the beginning of the next season.
Bot
The third point that I see as very positive and one of the most important is that unfortunately the bots act as parasites on the platform, bleeding the economy without contributing anything..
The updates affect them directly, the bot should retain cards and not send them to the market, in addition to being forced to rent many cards to reach higher leagues, then they would stop acting as parasites and add value to the game..
Guilds
This update that enters the virtuous circle is the guilds, the fact of incorporating it into the reward system and the sum of points for the end of the season is genius, I understood the importance of the guilds from the beginning and I entered the Aztec empire guild Mexican blood and we have achieved a lot of things together, but as I said before many players were not motivated to join or create a guild, but I think the key word is obligation, and with the updates even the accounts with bot will enter guilds to earn more rewards at the end of the season, also that guarantees the burning of many Dec in that process
Competitiveness
I think the last important aspect is the competitiveness that will increase significantly, all players will want to win as many battles as possible and add as many points as possible, both for the daily reward and the end of season rewards and in that process it is necessary to have the best cards and design strategies that allow you to achieve victory.
I think it is the beginning of a virtuous circle that addresses the main problems in the economy of the game and most likely this update will change the economy of the game completely and allow many more new players to enter the community of splinterlands motivated by its profitability and stability economically, another important information published by splinterlands was the new 12 reward cards that although they have not revealed much information about it, they bring an incredible new ability that has generated a lot of fomo in the community.
I have some publications that could be of interest to you.
