The continually raising thresholds for a guaranteed airdrop card is problematic. It further skews the game towards the Whales. I for one am not able to just buy 150 new packs to make this new threshold and I assume that there will be progressively higher threshold for each of the remaining cards. The changing landscape in the middle of an event is pretty frustrating and I don't understand why it has happened again.
The card looks great though and I wish good luck to everyone on the airdrop.

The gauranteed chances need to increase to keep the amount of total airdropped Legendary cards that are printed at reasonable levels. I was expecting an increase with the last drop but it didn't happen (thank you splinterlands for the extra odds in the players favor).
Thanks you for the response. I do understand the rational for raised thresholds, my issue is having the info come out 13 hours before the drop. The raising thresholds should have been noted before the event started so that everyone who was buying packs understood the whole process.
The changing landscape situation I referenced was removing the utility of SPS by changing the purchase requirement of CL packs from SPS to credits. If I had have known about the change for SPS and the threshold increases I would have not staked SPS to get vouchers and I would have bought more packs knowing about the threshold increases. While the drop in SPS price partially happened because of the overall crypto drop much of the drop happened because of the loss of utility. The developers have indicated that they have things in the works to add to the utility of SPS in the future so we we see where we are headed. I do see a great future for this project but I am just trying to illustrate that last minute changes can have real world monetary impact on everyone who invests in the game.
Have a great day everyone.
