Que bueno que nos tengan en cuenta con los torneos, hablo por los jugadores principiantes que estamos en la liga Bronce. Tengan en cuenta para los torneos los distintos husos horarios, para que todos podamos participar a la hora que solemos conectarnos por favor y gracias, sigan asi!


It's good that they take us into account with the tournaments, I speak for the beginner players who are in the Bronze league. Keep in mind for the tournaments the different time zones, so that we can all participate at the time we usually connect please and thank you, keep it up!

You can't use this card currently. It will be introduced once we hit 8M CL packs sold, and then it will be airdropped and be able to be obtained via opening CL packs.

Well, then I hope the HIVE stakeholders will be pushing the Splinterlands founders both to be top witnesses ... ;-)

Anybody can look at the rewarding system? it turns out not make sense. with the Rating far more exceeded the current league requirement. but the reward is on the floor. it means while im battling with the people few tiers higher than me(because im limited by CP) but im getting lowest reward, even worse than i got when the rate is in current tier range. im currently at Silver II(45k CP), but my rating is at 2500. and the daily reward got 1 portion, 1 Dec, 1 Dec from 3 chests. that's really discouraging for people who wants to play more.

Just because you have 2500 rating, you are staying in Silver 2 since you don't have enough Collection Power to move up any higher. As a result, you continue to match only with players in Silver 2, and possibly some in Silver 1. Your DEC won't ever increase either until you move up in the higher tiers, same with the number of daily quest rewards you earn.

You have two options:

  1. Buy enough cards to increase your Collection Power for Gold 1 or Gold 2.

OR

  1. Rent enough cards to increase your Collection Power for Gold 1 or Gold 2.
