RE: Season End, Hive Hard Fork, & Other Updates

in #splinterlands4 years ago

@felander, I believe the way the game has been designed is that each league has its own Summoner Caps (and thus monster Caps based on the summoner Caps). So whether someone has 2 million collection score or 200k collection score, the higher level doesn't give anyone an advantage. So if you have your cards up to the league's summoner and monster cap limits, then you will have the exact same opportunity as the accounts that also have theirs too. The fact that they have 2 million more in collection power is effectively wasted by them, not a punishment to you. In other words, if you are efficient, you can be better than those decks by being more efficient in your purchases and having the proper key cards as opposed to just owning everything in gold which gives no advantage in the season rankings.

They have a much 'deeper' team, a huge variety of different monsters and summoners which are strong even at comparable low levels.

It won't console the frustrated newbie to contemplate if his superior opponent wasted his collection power or not. :)

I agree with this point 100%

I like the change, but they need to now focus on making it fun for the newbie. Rewarding low level bots wasn't right, but keeping humans happy and engaged is something they should strive for.

Very true, this was going to be my retort. I’ve got decent cards but someone that’s got access to all of their cards mac level for the league is going to have a better shot at beating me. Not guaranteed by any means but likely to beat me if I make one mistake.
