@splinterlands continues to be one of the leading P2E games in the cryptosphere. I just saw their post ranked battle reward system updates and I was excited by the progress.

The Splinterlands team has been putting increased focus recently on the ranked battle reward system economy and we have identified a number of issues (with considerable help from the community) and are working on a comprehensive overhaul of the system with the following high level goals in mind:

  • Reduce the ability to "farm" rewards using a small set of cards across many different accounts
  • Increase the rewards for participating in the ranked season ladder (DEC, quest, and season rewards) across all leagues
  • Provide incentives for players to continue playing on a daily basis beyond the wins needed for the daily quest and provide incentives for players to continue playing after having achieved a high league in the current season

These are all initiatives that will help with user retention and fairness which is need for long term success. I won't turn down additional rewards so long as they devalue the rewards washing out the additional gains.

The change I'm most excited about is the 5% boost for Beta cards used in battles. My deck is primarily made of Beta cards so I'll take the added boost.

Each Beta edition card used in a ranked battle win will provide a 5% boost to the DEC rewards earned for that battle (this change was already released last week!)

It's also pretty generous to see Chaos Legion booster packs added as a possible reward in daily quest and season reward loot chests starting with Silver league.
