Yep, disappointing but to be expected. The only thing that baffles me is the changes of new vs old cards is that it kind of contrary to putting all emphasis on the collection score and scarcity.
Atleast, old cards will have utility and not be completed dead, but it still sucks that they are locked out of cash rewards.
The gameplay loop I see it as:
- Use old cards to win new season cards
- Use the new season cards (restriction: 1 old card in the lineup) to win cards and cash prizes
- Keep or sell new season cards.
Only thing I am not certain on is the whole promotion/relegation thing.
Anyways, to be expected as they were handing out 75% of their prizes were being handed out in thresholds weekly, so from a sustainability perspective its a change in order to keep the platform alive and to be honest I enjoy the game.
sorare and splinterlands have a similar problem - not able to attract enough new new players and these changes expect the existing playerbase to pump more money in.
Indeed, that is what it all comes down to. New money needs to come in in order to hold prices up.
An exosystem where you are sure that your assets will lose value this quickly kills all incentive to put money into it though. Feels like they will start with a high reward pool in the New Season competition with it being another unsustainable race to the bottom as everyone in classic will just dump the cards they earn.
I much rather would have seen a harder threshold and minimum requirements for collections. Now the incentive switched to selling cards instead of players needing to buy more cards.
