RE: SPS Proposal: Give Summoners a 3X Production Point Bonus when assigned to work on land

in #spsproposal2 years ago

dont know of any useless cards btw

How often do you use the Untamed Rare summoners?
If you were a new player, is that what you would be buying?
They aren't useless to you, because you can afford to keep them available, even though you likely never use them. For the people who are coming in now to play and win, they won't be buying cards that are barely used.

Sort:

Im buying the one thats cheapest so I can play.

So you don't care if you win or not?

Oh, and the cheapest to play would be in Modern format, not wild - which has more packs coming for it, likely at another overprint, so prices fall again.

Just a thousand new players willing to spend money on the game and they literally clear out the entire summoner market.
Thats how scarce these things are. 3x their PP and see how long they last. The cheapest commons, with lowest PP, with more than a million cards available doubled in price in a bear market because of Land.
3x PP for summoners and these are all gone in a second.

Like I said, 3x is likely too high. 1.5 would be enough and maybe even lower. But there should be a bonus of some kind for summoners. It doesn't have to be enough to clear all from the market, but an incentive to take the unused ones from the market. That gives space for people to also buy more of the new ones coming, as they can clear out their unused onto land and then replace with more useful ones from new sets - and these would be people who do have the ability to buy. There are likely only 1000 people who have put in large amounts into SL now.

I mean you keep saying it and im just not seeing reasoning behind it.

Theyre already very scarce, theres really not much of them unused that people are putting them up for sale.
If you want to clear out the unused ones, how many is your target for market availability if 350 for the cheapest one isnt low enough? 50? 20?

For some summoners theres only 10 of them already available.

Do you follow the markets for summoners?
Look at the activity of buys for the last month.
Also, available cards, doesn't mean available BCX.

Also, available cards, doesn't mean available BCX.

Yeah. it means you cant really make a lot of max cards. For the cheapest summoner you can only buy 6 maxed cards and barely combine 3-4 more. Thats 10 max summoners.
How scarcer do you want to make this?
