RE: Splinterlands Tournaments Updates

I myself am not a big tournament lover, because I don't find myself playing in them too often, because chances of winning are just so slim.

I would like to know how much of the Splinterlands population actually regularly plays and participates in tournaments (Not counting bots) ?

Almost 3k$ a week for tournaments seems crazy high to me, maybe there could be another way to split that for users that don't want to play tournaments, and maybe invent another cool gamemode/idea.
