So what's happening with this change is that you can play in any league you want as long as you can hit that rating. You can even play in Champs with a Bronze deck if you have the rating, you just won't get the full rewards with 9,000 SPS.
So if you enjoy playing in Gold because it's more fun, definitely do it. And yes, with 9,000 SPS, you won't get the full Rshares when you win, but SPS might be a different matter. Consider this scenario whereby you have 9,000 SPS, but majority of the players in Gold only have 1,000, your SPS battle reward should be higher as the the 1,000 SPS players will get less from the Gold League SPS pool, which means the pool won't diminish as fast. This would mean you with your 9,000 SPS will be able to get more SPS from a less diminished pool. This part is a little tricky and we won't really know how it will actually pan out till it goes live.
It is going to be interesting to see how it pans out, but I would like to see a projection based on last season, taking for example, the top 100 players from each league and their respective stakes in SPS. How many take 100%, how many don't have enough. What would be the effect for those who have enough.
Using a sample of 1, I can certainly say there is a very high % of players in any given league that fall short of the min. requirement, but I am ok with that. The SPS number should be aspirational and people should aim to reach it. If the requirement is too low, the SPS won will just be dumped back onto the market.
Potentially what can be done for new players is that the DAO delegates X amount of SPS to new players for the first month, free of charge as it just sits there anyway. This would force the DAO to stake the SPS (DAO gets SPS airdrop) and new players won't worry about SPS for the moment. And since SPS takes a month to unstake, hopefully they will enjoy it after that 1 month and stick around.
On the flip side, all the OGs will complain that they get 0.001% less SPS from SPS airdrops.....can't please everyone.
thank you for your explanation.
