thanks for this informative update
so vouchers will still continue even the CL packs presale is done.
What could be those cool stuffs for the vouchers use case
Don't know what the future use-cases will be, but if it is anything like being able to enter in the CL pre-sale, you know they are going to be quite valuable!
Great update! Really excited and looking forward for the Chaos Legion release.
Thanks yall! !PIZZA

Great update, it is good to know that those that do not participate in the pre-sale will not qualify for the Dr. Blight air drop.
I have only been playing Splinterlands for a couple of weeks but it is addictive, so I subscribed to not miss any future posts.
Thanks for the update guys!! :-)
So far I'm an hour in, great AMA.
Seeing the fun everyone is having is just as interesting as the info provided.
All the cards look great, I been waiting for some blood & guts; lets get more of that.
holy shit those animations look dope! ♥
thanks ..
I really don't get it why I will have to spend alot of money to succeed in this game
You don't have to, its a choice. You can play in Novice or Bronze for relatively cheap. One could also post about the game here on the Hive Network on frontends such as Splintertalk.io and earn crypto for our content. That crypto can then be used to purchase in game NFT's that are used for game play. There's lots of ways to build a fun to play deck without spending much.
Personally this game has made me money.
Takes money to make money I suppose.
sneak peek so cool😍
game age 13 plus? some of those cards are just.....
Think i prefer kitties for kiddies:)
I learned something...
First...Why I lost so badly when I battled a guy named Aggroed in a guild battle :)
Knowing vouchers are here to stay for goodies in the future makes me smile. Perhaps its like land.. didn't know its value initially and still not working...but sounds like it will be awesome in the future.
I do like the idea that there is an anti-scalper mechanism in place. Maybe the vouchers get cheaper after Chaos release so those dedicated long time players get something to hold for priority in the future :)
Also partnerships -- exciting! More players, more fun, more money :) Unfortunately, more competition to get limited cards..guess that's both good and bad.
These cards looks cool.. A month is really gonna feel like age waiting for them to drop..
Keep up the good work all the Splinterlands Devs..
The new art looks awesome!
New card art looks great. Excited for Chaos Legion. Hoping the game will have another land sale!
For sure some creepy looking cards in there and some rather awesome artwork. Thanks for the post!
But But But.... I thought my chicken was SPECIAL!
Hoping this 0 Mana cards will be Legendary or at least Epic!
