Daily Play & Earn on Gods Unchained!

As someone that has been playing Gods Unchained since the very beginning, I'm pretty excited about this change. They have been very careful with the distribution of tokens because they don't want to end up like other games that have tokens losing 99% of their value. This has resulted in multiple different iterations of way to distribute the GODS tokens. The most recent was the addition of GODS rewards to Weekend Ranked games, which lasted for a while. Before that it was a weekly earning situation with some pretty hardcore requirements.

Now - starting August 31st, players will be able to earn their share of daily GODS rewards. Of course, with their careful token distribution mechanisms, there's some requirements and restrictions around this. This also reduces the amount of token farming and deters bots, which I don't think is a big thing with this game. Still good to have measures in place that make it more difficult. Players will only have the opportunity to earn on their first 10 ranked games each day.

During the first 10 ranked games of each day, every win will earn players Fragments. Fragments are accumulated and are used to calculate the amount of GODS that each player will receive for the day. There's a lot of factors that will determine the amount of Fragments earned per Win, such as the Shine Quality of cards used, the amount of Wins, and the player's rank. It will definitely be interesting to start playing again after a bit of a hiatus and watch those rewards start accumulating.

Much like the other earn campaigns they've done in the past, rewards must be claimed. They don't automatically appear in your wallet, you have to claim them from the Daily Play & Earn dashboard. Currently the only way to earn GODS by playing is via Weekend Ranked games, which makes the weekends insanely competitive. The last time I played I got absolutely decimated about 5 times in a row. Fridays and Saturdays are when all the bad ass players come out to earn their GODS and packs.

I think we will definitely see a shift in the days players focus on. The extremely competitive weekends will hopefully get more chill as players will be able to earn every day. Now the only thing earned via Weekend Ranked is going to be the usual packs of cards. Maybe people will actually be able to earn some packs now instead of getting completely rekt over and over again lol. Time to start grinding on a daily basis again, instead of waiting til the weekend to play.

Rewards will accumulate on the dashboard and are claimed individually each day. There's no requirement to claim them every day, but even if you do... It doesn't matter because it uses Immutable X, which has no gas fees. Rewards are similar to Hive rewards in the sense that they are paid out after 7 days and are subject to change based on a number of factors. This could be the change that brings in tons of new players if it is marketed in the right way.

They aren't the best with marketing, so we will see what happens. At minimum, the weekends will get a little more chill since players will be grinding all week instead of just for those 2-3 days.

Rewards are going to be different on a daily basis as well, with the max amount distributed capped at 30,000. The biggest factor in the algorithm when determining the amount distributed for the day is the number of players. I just keep trying to picture Gods Unchained if it had half the daily players of Splinterlands. It would be absolutely insane and would be so competitive. Hopefully one day we get there, but I think slow growth is better overall.

I know I'm about to be dedicating more time to getting games in every day now. It's been a while since I played and I probably need to spruce up my decks. Time to spend some GODS on some new cards.

Are you excited?
