The last few months had been rough for GLG players. The loss of the MLSPA partnership, the collapse of promises around Goals V2 and Tactics, serious talks about potentially ending the game, and the token prices being at an all-time low, all created an atmosphere of gloom and uncertainty around the game. Player participation was at a low, and the rewards just didn't seem worth it, packs being worth 8 cents and GLX tournament awards being a couple of dollars at best.
The acquisition of the oliverschmid account and the distributions of cards that followed marked a renewed interest in the game and the rewards being offered for tournaments. We are seeing increased activity and new, never seen before players becoming regular participants in tournaments and the giveaway. It is a golden opportunity for them, some having been given an entire team for free, and more cards every week to shore it up, at no cost.
There are still cards worth 10$ on the market being handed out for free. It might not be possible to sell them at that price, but if you can get them for free, why not save them up for the future? There is still 7000$ worth of cards inside the account, it went down from over 12000$ when the giveaway started in December.
In addition to card giveaways, recently a ton of packs have been secured for tournament rewards, leading to impressive amounts being handed out at the end of tournaments. I finished in 5th place and got 60 free packs. They only sell for 8 cents now, but there is no harm in keeping them in case the price blows up someday.
All of this adds up to make GLG tournament rewards more enticing than ever before, and you could be playing for free right now if you were active in the discord since December. But it is not too late. There is still time to accumulate a small fortune of GLG assets this winter. Don't miss this opportunity!
