Proposal
Add Energy Potion to the loot chests as a reward, so players can play more when they want.
Purpose
With the new energy system players can play fewer games than before. You can pay to play more, but I would like to reward players to add a free option to collect some energy boost potion for future use. It is a good possibility for low-league and new players too because the players can decide when they want to use this potion (the best value is that used in higher leagues).
Execution
I suggest decreasing the current potion chance by 1% in every league, so every player has the same chance. (Potion value depends on the league, so I think it is a good idea to have everybody has the same chance)
Current chances:
| League | Potion |
|---|---|
| Bronze | 23.995% |
| Silver | 23.95% |
| Gold | 22.00% |
| Diamond | 21.50% |
| Champion | 20.50% |
Suggested chances (but it can depend on the splinterlands team):
| League | Potion | Energy Potion |
|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 22.995% | 1% |
| Silver | 22.95% | 1% |
| Gold | 21.00% | 1% |
| Diamond | 20.50% | 1% |
| Champion | 19.50% | 1% |
Every chest can contain only 1 energy potion, so it is not a drastic change!
Background
As a player I want to play this game, why not give this as an additional reward to everybody? With this potion, I think players can benefit as much as bots, or even more. I support all kinds of changes that help the real players. With this potion, you can create a strategy to rent some powerful cards and go into a marathon rush when you have time :)
Conclusion
Playing with the game is an important thing. With this potion, users can play more when they want and have time. And also motivate to jump into a higher league and play with the potion there.
Sponsorship/Comments
This is my first proposal idea and unfortunately, I do have not enough DEC to pay for this at the moment. I am even not sure that this is a good proposal suggestion. So firstly I ask you to comment with your opinion about this idea. Maybe I miss something and I should rethink the whole idea. What is your thought?
I support the idea, but 1% is a really low percentage. In the silver & gold leagues, getting a legendary reward card has a similar chance (0.8-1.2%) and the happiness factor is a little bit different :)
It's an outstanding yes from me :-)
I'd be happy to give up half of my potions for the energy refills.
