RE: Splinterlands : Will the Bot Ban Work?
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I'm just trying out my daughter's account in modern at bronze level. The bots do indeed seem to be gone, but if the purpose of banning them was to encourage newcomers, I'm not sure how that will work. I've just come up against accounts with legendary summoners and cards in low end bronze 2, which newcomers wouldn't stand a chance against. I don't know if they are old players coming back in to test things out. As you were saying, I'm not getting many matches close to me points wise. The Llama took me out at 170 points, then another account with legendaries was at 600, with me sat around the 450 mark. I've got the odd legendary on mine too. I thought I'd fly through bronze, but obviously not. 😅
That's very interesting. Thanks for sharing!
It might be a bit of an anomaly since the season is well progressed already and if some players are poking their heads back in for a gander it might just be a short term phenomena. Definitely worth checking out though.
I think that this could be what's happening. I'm guessing if lots of bots have dropped off then the rewards potential could be higher, so they might be seeing if that's the case too.
