Hope you guys see this feedback for the current changes: I noticed that due to the leader board rewards people are not moving on to the next league. For silver , e.g. the top 24 players all have a poer level of 180k+ which would take them to gold II. But because they don't have a chance to earn leader board rewards in gold they are "stuck" in silver. I hope the problem is clear... Is this intended? I would suggest to decrease the power requirements between the leagues otherwise I have 0 incentive to try and rise to the top of a leader board by playing the game. It will literally take months or a year to get to the top of my current leader board. And then of course I won't move on as well as the rewards are much greater for the lower league...

In fact, how the system currently works is that it incentivizes people to go to a lower league as this will enable them to get the leader board rewards. This is a serious problem in my opinion.

Why should I play in silver when I can play in bronze and have an actual chance of getting the leader board rewards?! (which are much better than a couple of additional loot chests)

EDIT:

I just found the fix :/ I am surrendering all of my battles to get back to bronze and get the leader board rewards there... It feels kinda stupid

Hello!
I will pass this along.
I DO know that this same concern has been raised, so it's not unnoticed.

Also! A lot of concerns and questions are brought up (and answered) at the weekly AMAs (Ask Me Anything) that are held in Splinterlands Discord.
We do them at varying times, but always on Fridays.
And if you don't have a Discord, we upload them to youtube so you can catch up that way.

Thanks for reaching out!

I'm back! @tobetada 🥰

It seems that Power Score is still a bit confusing (for everyone).
Here are some things to keep in mind:

  • Gold foil cards have x50 times power score.
  • Extra copies of cards also contribute.
  • Power score by itself does not necessarily determine how competitive a deck is.
  • It is important is to look at the summoner and monster levels and compare that to the league limits.
    • This FAR more important than looking at Power scores alone.

NOTE: Surrendering doesn't work.
There is a distinction between current league and leaderboard.

  • Your leaderboard never goes down (except at the end of a season, or if you choose to drop a league during the first 3 days following the end of a season). Your leaderboard can go up if you choose to advance, otherwise it stays the same (but does not drop).
  • Your current league (which determines your daily quest loot chests and who you get matched up with in Ranked), can go up or go down. You can drop your current league by dropping your rating or losing power, but this does NOT change which leaderboard you are competing for.

Hope this info helps!

thanks for the reply!

I understand that power does not equal deck strength, but I think the problem really lies in that people don't have an incentive to advance currently. While leaderboard rewards are a fantastic idea, it disincentivizes people to go to the next league as one only gets rewarded by a couple more loot chests. The leaderboard rewards, however, hold much greater value and therefore it is the logical decision not to move on to lets say Gold III as one can get almost as many loot chests in Silver I AND get some leader board rewards.

The logical choice so to say is to stay in Silver I until one can compete for the leader board rewards in Gold I. This might only be balanced out to a degree as Gold I players also won't want to advance to Diamond III (therefore making it quite difficult for lower league players to compete with the next league).

I think there are a couple of ways in which this could be fixed; I hope you monitor the situation and review other feedback regarding to this.

NOTE: Surrendering doesn't work.

Yes I noticed, but the way in which the system currently works I will definitely go back to Bronze I and at least have a chance to get some leader board rewards. I think I won't be the only one.

Yes! We understand 'where the problem really lies'... the incentive. It's being highly discussed and the devs are watching numbers. We hope to get a better idea of what exactly is working and how in the next month.

Thanks for caring so much and helping.
The goal, as it has always been, is to make Splinterlands lasting and potentially profitable to anyone. We have to figure out the best way for total longevity. And we always appreciate the eyes (and minds) of our community, helping us along the way.

What's Happening @splinterlands Team and Community... Tonight I'm playing @splinterlandsone one more time and I was able to finish a Life Splinter Quest tonight but did have a little bit of trouble doing it... LoL!!! Happy Weekend everyone. I hope you had a Fabulous Weekend. I have my MRI on Tuesday, the 22nd of September, and hopefully, we will finally find out what's happening to my body once and for all. Had a very productive weekend filling out applications, doing surveys, and trying to stay positive and focused. California is having major problems. Earthquakes and fires and the EDD under investigation screwing up people's very much needed money. What a nightmare it is right now. I hope you enjoy my video. Thank You @splinterlands and Team for all you do!!!

Hey @fmbs25!
All of your links are broken (except the one that says "Images taken from the official website of Splinterlands" - that works, but is pointing to steemmonsters... but still redirects correctly).

Your Pixaloop link also doesn't work.

Great post otherwise! Imma still upvote and comment there too. :)
