How should the Conclave Arcana Starter Packs be sold?

Since the original proposal from the Splinterlands team to develop Conclave Arcana was released, I've had multiple requests to change the $5 starter packs with 25 cards into a smaller and cheaper pack. This poll isn't about changing the contents of the starter pack, so they will still be limited to common and rare cards with no chance of gold foil and no guarantees. I'd like to gather stake weighted feedback on whether or not the DAO wants to sell the starter packs differently than originally pitched by Splinterlands so I know whether or not I need to run a proposal.

This was brought up again during the most recent Town Hall and that's why I am putting the poll together now. This is something that is absolutely in the scope of the DAO as the DAO is hiring the Splinterlands company to design and sell the packs on our behalf. Please select whichever option you prefer below, but keep in mind that this poll is only for the starter packs which include only common and rare cards with no chance of gold foil. If an option other than $5 for 25 cards has a clear majority support then I'll run a proposal.

I am of the opinion that 1000 dec / 1$ packs have more chance of being bought by starting players. Moreover, I truly believe that including a small (and I mean really small) chance of something more than only commons and rares will make them much more desirable, not only for starting players but also perfect for the rest of the non-whales who like a gamble.

Yes!! Even a very small chance... if a L has 1% in a regular booster, make it .1 or even .01 %. But that jackpot element should really be included. One cannot understate the impact.

I don't see why this matters much at all. Perhaps its easier to spend 1$ regularly, and that it can accumulate to more sales over time. I'm voting for that. Not concerned about the outcome here.

Maybe this should be more of a consumer behaviour study rather than just a popularity vote?

$1 pack of 5 is equally ratioed to $5 for 25 cards. The difference mainly is on defining the minimum amount to spend. Question is, why do we need to have a higher minimum?

Why can't we make it more accessible to others who might think $1 is enough. Having granularity seems better as well as someone's budget might just be $8 so can buy 40 cards, instead of being limited within only multiples of 25 cards.

Exactly... getting these basic sales/marketing pints across has been such an uphill battle!

I think it will make a difference and my vote goes to setting to 1$ pack. Its more psychological imho.

@aftersound also addresses in his YT video:

Curious what todo about the other pack pricing we should also consider those imho, the standard pack / gold foil or legendary packs (not sure what they al where).

This doesn't address the real issue that standard packs still too expense.
