I used to make it to Champion I (which is the highest League) many years ago before Collection Power and other changes to Ranked Battles were introduced. These changes were good for the long term health of the game despite pushing me down in League over time. After the latest round of changes that were enacted, I manage to climb back to Champion III again. I don't even remember how long it has been. What I remember is that it was before Collection Power was introduced.

Koinos Blockchain Channel Interviewed @yabapmatt

The interview was conducted by @andrarchy who is currently the CEO of Koinos Group. Most of the team that contributed to STEEM codebase are now working on Koinos which has many features that HIVE has and some additional improvements such as WebAssembly smart contracts + ability to use Resource Credits (they call it Mana) from liquid KOIN creating an even easier UX. It is great to see these wonderful people that helped HIVE become what it is today keeping in touch and giving exposure to each other.

I want to see more of this type of collaboration. I want to see @splinterlands assets bridged to Koinos and vice versa. Koinos and HIVE share a too much of common DNA and developers to remain isolated.

This is one of my proudest achievements in @splinterlands in recent times. It was difficult to reach Champion III. The best part is that I will be starting the next Season in Diamond League and will have a very good chance of reaching Champion League again.

It is great to see my list of Max Level Cards grow due to the current batch of Reward Cards staying in print for this long. Aside from Lord Arianthus, I had not managed to reach Max Level before. I bought Waka Spiritblade + Lux Vega which came in Max Level form. Now I have many Monsters to use with these Summoners and eventually I might be able to have at least 1 Summoner from each Splinter that is at Max Level.

There is nothing for me to add about the Rental Market now. What I know is that there are other blockchain games that are catching upto having a good and easy market for player to acquire assets without having to purchase and own the assets. It is time @splinterlands improve their marketing efforts to let more people know about the existence of our amazing ecosystem built primarily on HIVE.

I like receiving SPS Airdrop for investors of Soulkeep. I don't know exactly when the game will launch. I think we will see the Airdrop carry on until the game launch or at least a beta version go live. The I bought 110 Nightmare Packs and over time the SPS Airdrop alone should have paid for a large portion of that investment.

David Fox who is the CEO of Double Coconut paritpated in the latest Town Hall event of SPS DAO (this is different from the ones that are conducted by Steem Monsters Inc.) and mentioned that Soulkeep will release on this quarter (meaning before the end of June). After the launch of the game, SPS + Cards will have even more utility and another funnel to bring in more Web 2 users into blockchain.

An all new Rewards Shop should go live in a matter of few hours and after the end of the day I should be able to purchase the exact type of Rewards which is a welcome change. So far the only thing I want to ask of the team is to change the way Champion Reward Chests look! They need to go with the colour these of red for Champion League and have a better looking Chest design.

I was taken aback when I first noticed the look of the Chest. I had to double check to see if it is the Champion Reward Chest. It is possible that the new update will have a completely different set of assets to represent Champion League Rewards. Either way, I have a better confidence in future of @splinterlands after compared to how things looked a few months ago.

Happy Gaming! Happy Investing!
