Currently, the Splinterlands codebase is proprietary and is owned, along with the Splinterlands IP, by the Splinterlands company, so it will only be possible to hire a third party to develop any of these

I see no issue with doing $1 / 5 card starter packs instead of the $5 / 25 card version. If the community agrees I would be happy to change that.

who would like to own a card if they know the price will drop 90% in 1 year? Aside from Chaos Legion, I don't think there are any sets in which the price has dropped anywhere close to 90% from the price

I am open to a $1 pack with 5 cards instead of the $5 pack with 25 cards. It really doesn't make any difference as far as economy design. The thinking behind making the starter packs non-transferrable

I think we need to do both. I don't know how we can possibly support the game without selling new cards, which is something that every other TCG I know of does and still manages to attract new players.

The main purpose of Modern Format was to give Splinterlands an affordable entry price to new players I don't consider that to be the main purpose of Modern format. Pretty much every trading card game I

The alchemist pack price. I'm curious about the math that arrived at this price. Maybe this could be discussed at the town hall. The math for the Legendary and Alchemist packs were similar. They both provide

We have some neat ideas for that which we're in the process of planning out. Stay tuned!

There's no pack type that guarantees Epic cards, but every card in Booster and Alchemist packs and four out of the five cards in Legendary packs will have the typical 4% chance of being Epic.

The entire economy of the game is based around players spending money to purchase in-game assets. That's what drives value to the SPS token. Releasing new card sets has been the primary method of driving

Good question - we'll consider that when designing the set.

Yes - sorry that wasn't more clear in the post!

Sorry it seems that this wasn't clear. Only the unopened starter packs will be non-transferrable. Once opened, the cards in them will be just normal cards like in any other type of pack that can be

because we don't get value from the spellbook - we get value from players sticking around Yes - this is exactly what I said when we were discussing this internally. It's much better to use the spellbook

Just checked my feed before bed and got roped into trying out snaps! Figured I could use it to start some Splinterlands speculation. Some things I’ve been working on lately are Conclave Arcana and Hardcore

I like your shirt!

I am very sorry about that...I just searched for you in Discord and saw that you did indeed message me about that. I guess I must have missed it. I turn off Discord notifications when I'm working and sometimes
