  • AMA time can change every week
  • Big engagement thing is on the 19th, might get pushed back if HF24 continues to get in the way
  • phase 4 is the last phase of collection power. tournament hosts will be able to optionally require - a minimum collection power for tournament participation on a per-tournament basis
  • tournaments' collection power requirements will only count cards allowed in that tournament. i.e. only your untamed cards will count towards untamed-only tournaments
  • players' power will be checked at the time each tournament starts, which might result in player disqualification
  • phase 4 has already been tested and ready for release. it's just waiting on HF24 fixes
  • new player tutorial experience should be released at the same time as power phase 4
  • guild tournaments are the current work in progress. they're next big thing
  • the splinterlands.com announcement for pre-sale of lands is coming in the next one to three weeks
    actual sale will come around two weeks after its official, public announcement on the splinterlands.com website
  • no airdrops for the land sale
  • google play store app launch is finally getting close
  • for the land pre-sale discounts, you have to get the exact amount announced in order to get the discount. if you go over the top, there will be 0 discount for your entire purchase
  • you can win blueprints and/or attachable upgrades for lands as prizes from guild tournaments
    item blueprints manufacturable at lands come out better if you have the appropriate attachments
    lands can also be improved by attaching certain monsters to it
  • item blueprints will also be available through guild shops (and maybe boss fights)
    you can also win permanent resource gathering buffs for certain resources from guild wars
    battling in guild wars earns you faction points
  • you can spend either credit or faction points to upgrade the first few land building levels, but only faction points can be spent on higher level buildings
    discounts are called sectors. you can split them and sel them on hive-engine after the pre-sale starts
  • there are no gold-foil lands, but there are lands of different rarieties
  • one land plot without discounts = $20
  • there will be 100k land plot in total
  • pre-sale maybe includes 40k plots
  • gold foil monsters/summoners mechanics related to lands right now are classified
  • cards from editions not being sold anymore (i.e. beta) are going to get bonuses related to lands
    land is expected to sell out during the pre-sale. not everyone is expected to get the quantity they want
  • combat item interface is probably simple but adds a lot more strategical variety
  • there will be a map to represent land plots
  • having plot located next to each other provides bonuses
  • buying sectors will get you adjacent land
  • dec on uniswap is doing well
  • there will be three pre-sales in total
  • there are no estimates of what would happen if DEC consistently stayed above the peg
    all lands are able to craft, harvest and/or store something. some types of lands can do things other types can't
  • fiat-only exclusives won't be available
  • if DEC goes above the peg and stays there, it is not yet known if the peg will also rise for land purchases
  • monster/summoner cards' foil, edition and level impact how effective they are for lands
  • land cards can't be burnt
  • you can choose if your land is going to harvest, craft OR store
  • there will probably never be a way to uncombine bcx of a card
  • the chance of getting a certain land rarity (i.e. legendary) from a pack will be similar, but not exactly the same as monster/summoner cards
  • monsters/summoners allocated to lands will probably get on cooldown
  • marketing team will create splinterlands presence in the next digicon
  • spells/items produced from lands are permanent, but they do have undisclosed limitations
  • spells/items can be used in every type match, including tournaments
  • boss fights will be a thing
