This Proposal is SO pro-bot, it's actually both pro-bot and anti-player at the same time!
First, the proposal we adjust the SPS staking reward multiplier for Wild format so that the amount of staked SPS at each rating level gives roughly half of the reward multiplier as before. This aims to address the idea that in order to be able to earn rewards in Wild format players need to have a stake in the ecosystem.
By reducing the reward multiplier for staked SPS- we would be increasing the rewards earned by those accounts with little/no staked SPS.
Secondly, the proposal that players accounts be required to purchase a Wild Season Permit in order to be able to play in Wild format at all every ranked play season. This aims to discourage new/casual players from even trying Wild Format at all. We will be able to not only create a barrier for new players trying to play but also discourage casual players from playing at all.
Some Numbers
There are currently around 75k unique accounts that battle in Wild format every season, with about 45k of them playing < 50 battles during the season. Instituting the "Wild Season Permit" will immediately stop all 45K of those accounts from playing any games, at all.
Based on the two proposals, you can see how this will drastically increase the profits of the purely economically motivated accounts that currently play in Wild format. By keeping out both new players and casuals, while reducing the effectiveness of staked SPS- the more accounts you have and the more they play, the more you make.
