RE: New Reward Cards & Tournament Updates

Having thought about it, I can tell you that every new player is in need of boosting her motive for playing more and even for investing more into his cards. That is what a fair tournament prize will achieve. Furthermore, I am sure that no market would get destroyed because of such a decision, but on the contrary more motivated newcomers will grow the card and renting markets.
Cheers!

1 person buying $20,000 worth of cards is more valuable to the market than 500 people spending $25. Noone will buy $20,000 worth of cards if they can't put them to use. Yes, some people buy that much or more. So this would hurt high-profile card holders.

A new player does not have to worry about any of this. They won't be able to win high level tournaments without high level cards anyway. There are bronze and novice tournaments they can participate on equal grounds with everyone else.

Just now, @Jarvie talked a lot about it. Everything is on @splinterlands if they want to make foundations of the game economy. As it is now, anybody investing 20k USD that you commented is making bad decision.

Also not every called market is a real market place. There is a subtle definition of conditions making a market. For example, you can find it in a book "Elliot's wave theory". Everything around the game is no market.

In my comments, I am talking about new players and how good it is that they succeed in normal manners to play good and win a tournament prize. Because when I was a noob, I managed to win a few prizes and it boosted my motive to stay with the game and make some investment (far from 20k USD that you commented). After all, @splinterlands are investing in bringing more new players.

That is also a way of building a market IMO.
Cheers!

Now I understand. But every newbie has a fair chance against others in novice and bronze tournaments. I don't see your suggestion heavily affecting this without harming some non-newbie players. In my opinion, creating non-tournament events mainly targeted at new players would be a better option, but there is no system for that atm. It would probably have to be directed by a portion of the community.

:fact:
At the end of the day, @splinterlands are the one making decisions. Apparently there is no interest about this topic.
:thanks:
Thank you @Felipejoys for sharing opinions here.
Cheers!

That is not true. The community could pick this up.
