How do you think of Splinterlands as an Esport? Unless all participants are given fully levelled "ghost" cards for tourney play, I don't see how an average player beats whales at all. Even in in-game novice and bronze tournaments, there are players with 50k+ power from top guilds among the real low level players and its a bit disheartening to see.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
@zerold I can see 2 methods: format based or prepick and bans
Format based is easy to imagine.
Prepick and bans means you are allowed to ban 1 splinter maybe and pick 5/6 summoner you would play on that game. In every case you need to have access to your personal cards.
A good way to incentivize player could be if you win a satellite game you can be awarded and play a particular tournament for rookies to find sponsor and play with cards given from @splinterlands team.
