Greetings, everyone!
I have not followed the news for a while, and today I was surprised by the changes to the Splinterlands Wild Ranking season.
In November 2021 the value of my cards was $128k. Since then, I have constantly added more and more cards, and today, my collection is valued at $10k. It was a significant loss, but I accepted, believing all this time in a recovery. The markets are smart they say... and always will find the way back, isn't it? Yes, but only if there's value behind those assets!
But today I recognized that the game is fighting against its most loyal users. I see no logic for adding a fee for playing with your most valuable assets. It's not expensive (yet), but the message is clear - the game wants our money and is not shy at all. For old and new users - why one would invest in a game where you are penalized for loyalty?

I am also not happy with the changes but it was passed by a DAO vote. So there really wasn't much I can really do about it. I noticed it when I saw the Glint dropped a few days ago and people were talking about the fee added. I moved over to modern but I will probably cut down on my ranked battles.
Hmm... I did not expect this move from DAO. Stange, but I will look for the reasoning behind the proposal. This season I bought the pass for the wild... with a bitter taste on my side.
Here is the link to the proposal that passed.

Damn that’s a huge loss
What are you planning to do?
Probably not much to do about it... I feel that Splinterland is condemned by its greed
I keep telling everyone Splinterlands is becoming, no has become a money grab. Good luck if you continue to waste your money on it.
It sounds frustrating to see such a significant drop in your investment dear friend. Loyalty should be rewarded, not penalized. I hope things turn around for you soon. Wishing you all the best !BEER good friend
