RE: SPS Governance Proposal - Solutions to Minimize Bot Farms

in #spsproposallast year

I think the biggest problem with CP is that it allows multiples to be counted, if the algorithm was designed to only count the highest version of the card BCX it would be more manageable to calculate and it would go much farther into actually calculating how good a deck is.

Sort:  

this is not really a problem. as the empty accounts disappear and the bot farms with ownership have to massively downsize their farms, the rating inflation is reduced, so the battles become harder again. if someone fills the cp only with pelacor, he would still have to borrow or buy battle-ready cards to fight. for example, if 50k accounts now fill their accounts with pelacor for bronze only, they would have to pump about 1.5 million dollars into the market, and in the end they still wouldn't have any fightable cards and could only play in bronze. for a worst case scenario, it still sounds very good to me^^

Overall it still has to calculate 50k pelacors vs 1 pelacor, and it's much healthier for the ecosystem if the CP calculates the highest bcx of a card once, rather than the player renting or buying 50,000 of the lowest cp/$ card to cheese the system.
