I think level 1 cards always need value and need to be playable.

To be honest, a diamond or gold deck sells super bad.

The highest accessibility to new players is level 1 cards. I dont think many new player say "let's spend 300k on that game".

A test league with skill only and all cards have same stats from level 1 to max and only rewards change could be a thing.

If it sucks, remove it.

If its cool, why not?

I mean at this point rewards are fixed + everyone could be champion, only the rewards are different. I mean that would be a real play to earn or not?

And maybe remove ghost cards to a minimum possible.

If the rental market works " perfect". That would mean easy to use for new people.

Then the changes could make a lot of sense.

Like "top 20" decks for rent or something like that.

If rental market should drop massive, card prices will drop massive short after it, means yields will drop after it too.

I love my rental account too.

But if the yield is "-card value" because of less new players, I'm in favor of a more sustainable model :D

If panic should hit in and we end up in PVP market, it will become dirty.

That's why more players and more hands are better in a more accessible game.

I have no problem holding in a "bera market",but the game needs in the meanwhile the ability to grow in users IMO.

sure it needs a free market balance.

Another idea would be to let the proposal work and add for a "skill variant" a change of season rewards in the league for top players.

So skill really matter, and even a player with lower $ invested could have a "top player experience".

I maybe look at things a bit differently, because I played a lot of competitive games like starcraft.
