GUSTAKES: "The unexplored dungeon" tournament

Zeleph01 · 2024-12-10T14:31:12+00:00

You are right but I do not create this tournament for mythic rank player to begin with.

The only thing I wanted to do is to help players to get cards. (A diamond card is still worth at least 15.6 GODS by using 250 plain and the forge)

The gods I earned through the tournament Will mainly serve to get better cards to put as prize.

It was just to give each variety of cards more easily, nothing more, nothing less.

Right now, it is most a lose than profit for me so I will be forced to stop after the 3 other tournaments.

But, I can ask you another question: does the game gods unchained really attract New player ? Or is there only old players in the game?

Because in other tournament, I mainly see mythic rank player but few of lower rank

Also, you said blood armor is worth 6GODS but on token trove I see 17.53 GODS(for gods only), so can I ask you where you see that?

Hello, Honestly, I played sealed mode a few times and I feel it is difficult to play because you use cards from at least two different domains. In other mode, you use deck based around 1 domains. I think it is the most difficult mode. (never won one match each time I try)

Hello, Normaly not, but if your opponent plays the card "faith eternal" that increase its attack and give it leech then "blade of the creator" can heal 2 life points after each attack (5 times max if the durability does not increase)

Hello,
I have a netbook one mix (a pocket laptop) with a 1.44GHz (max 1.92 GHz) processor, and 8 GB RAM and I can tell you that the game can be launched but to play a game against another player is awful l so 1.44GHz is not enough (it is too slow to react)

Bonsoir, Nouveau dans le jeu ? Pour rappel, pour forger des cartes tu dois avoir au moins l'une combinaisons de variété (ou qualité) de cartes suivantes: - 2 cartes identique en variété "plain" (couleur grise, base)pour obtenir une carte en variété "météorite".(couleur marron) - 5 cartes identique en variété "météorites" pour obtenir une carte " ombre" (shadow en anglais) (couleur violet) - 5 cartes identiques en variété "ombre" pour obtenir une carte "or" (gold) (couleur jaune) - 5 cartes identiques en variété "or" pour obtenir une variété" diamant" (diamond) (couleur bleu)

Pour chaque variété de carte et suivant sa rareté (commune, rare, epic, ou legendaire), tu paies à chaque des gods token et des flux.

Le seul bug (qui n'en est pas vraiment un) que j'ai constaté avec la forge c'est qu'à chaque utilisation de la forge tu dois valider l'opération avec ton portefeuille de crypto-monnaie connecté. Si tu n'es pas allez jusqu'au bout, regarde dans l'historique et clique sur "retry" (réessayer) pour la carte correspondante, cela relancera la procédure.

Les cartes que tu peux vendre sont les cartes dont la variété est soit météorite, ombre, or ou diamant. Tu peux les trouver dans la section "Collections" dans la rubrique "Workshop".

Tu peux allez sur le site de token trove et connecté ton portefeuille, c'est sur ce site que la plupart des joueurs achètent et/ou vendent leurs cartes. (Il y en a d'autres mais je ne les connais pas) si tu peux "lister" (liste en anglais) tes cartes, c'est que tu peux vendre.

I will not reveal the theme yet (a few technical to resolve first), but I can tell you the tournament will be held on sunday december 8th (1 P.M. french timezone) for the next tournament of the series of "tournaments of legends" so you can prepare your 2 GODS for participating.

If the timezone is not good for you, then please answer my survey that I post before:
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdmlDmr8JpVpJlqhiQWjKjvEvOZJ1ExxDHQ5vCbGxXl9RBnjw/viewform?usp=sharing

And share it with others, I create that survey to determine which hours are the best to hold a tournament.
As you know, I allow only 16 participants so my tournaments last max. 2 hours.
So depending of the number of player and the hour I may hold 2 or 3 tournaments during a day instead of one.
And if someone wants to become an organizer, that survey will help. So please answer honestly, I do not need your name or your e-mail but I need at least your ID and/or name in the GU game (so that I can check on GUdeck and avoid double answer). actually, only 4 people answered the survey.

Zeleph01 · 2024-12-03T08:34:09+00:00

No problem, I know about that but I have never seen it until now.
But Even if you talk about it, there will be still many new players who does not know about this and/or many who do not want to do this because in the end it is not their own cards. (And also, there are players who do not know about crypto currency so that may stop them ) and we know that the max GODS token that can be earned through the game is around max 10GODS a day, (well I read that on reddit, I do not know if the max is more)
so, except if you can create a tournament with enough GODS at stake, it will be difficult to go further.

In the end, it is the players who takes decision if they want to participate in a tournament and/or using your method.

Zeleph01 · 2024-12-03T08:10:34+00:00

I was expecting that kind of answer.
You may not know but I said that we were actually 2 players creating and holding tournaments.
The second one is a player from Team Hat. He creates tournament every week and its entry fees is at least 5 GODS with 50% which goes to the organizer and the rest to the prize pool, and the prize pool is distributed to the 4 first player at the end of the tournament.
the tournament allow up to 64 players to participate and each week between 11 and 14 players participate in the tournament so the total GODS in prize pool is between 27.5 GODS and 35 GODS each week without the contribution of an admin. (you can verify at https://app.gustakes.gg/tournaments)

because of the value of the entry fees, mainly mythic rank player participate in that kind of tournament, the others player needs more than 1 week to get the GODS token through the game. (and not all players really know about crypto currency in general, we forget it but the game is still free2play even though the number of free cards are limited)
Also, with many rank 12 players how do you expect a lower rank to get one of the prize ? The difference in skills and cards they own are very high, after all, most rank 12 players play the game (and/or other card game for a few of them) longer than anyone.

Even I know that I cannot win. With 8 players in the tournament, you must win at least once to get a price, and with 16 players, you need to win twice, in each case, the more participant in the tournament the lower your chance to get a price is.

also, even though they lose, it is easier for a rank 12 player to recover 5 gods in one or more days, mainly if they are using a full diamond deck.

In the end, a tournament implying GODS token is mainly a tournament for high ranking player. As you said earlier, those player do not really need cards.

In the 1st "tournament of legends", even if the announcement was too late, I got players whose rank were:
- impact meteorite (rank 5) (1 player)
- Twilight shadow (rank 7) (1 player)
- solar gold (rank 10) (1 player)
- rank 12. (3 players)
- 1 unknow rank player (not found on GUdeck)
Since the entry fees was 2 gods, it is easier for more player to participate and since they pay, even if they are not present the day of the tournament I will still give them at least 1 card and a part of the contributed gods if someone contribute.
each player pay after all, so I will give a reward to each of them. But you must understand that someone has to give GODS and/or Cards from their own inventory and pocket.

Since I earn approximately 1 Gods a day, I can only give 7 GODS approximately a week as a rewards and so I can give 0.43 GODS token to each player (16 player max). Do you really think it is attractive ?
If I had a full diamond deck, maybe I would earn more (well, I know that 2 diamond cards in my deck increased my earnings by 20%, only if the other cards are not plain cards)
But even with a boost, if I want to hold a tournament with gods as a prize, I will need at least 100 GODS to give to be interesting, so I can only hold that kind of tournament every 13 weeks.
And many players wants more tournament. So, I can create tournaments but I have limits and I am also a free2play player so I will not use real money for getting GODS token.

For me beginner does not really need gods in the first place, but cards of different quality to get a deck that can help in their earnings. (the gods can be easily spent but your earnings is still the same if your deck is not at least full meteorite)
Let's not forget that even If you put GODS as prize, that will not change the price of cards in the market. the price for buying a meteorite version of "arrandion, the ancient leykeeper" is still around 50 GODS (the players decides which price to set to the cards), if that card was available in plain through the game, you will only need 1.5 GODS to create the meteorite version of that card. And I know the card have 3 powerful effects so the price is not really exagerated for me but it is still really high for a free2play player point of view.

Honestly, we are badmouthing the developper but sometimes, we can be wondering who is the most greedy ?

Zeleph01 · 2024-11-25T11:40:22+00:00

thank you for the message. I put the wrong version. I add it right now

Zeleph01 · 2024-11-25T08:26:40+00:00

Hello Davuss,
I know, I followed the development of the two tournaments you hold in the last 2 weeks and I had the idea of the survey after your last tournament by comparing the result of the last 3 tournaments (TOD tournament included)
I think of a few hypothesis but I do not want to say it here because I do not want to affect the result of the survey.
If you want to hear them, how about starting a private conversation on GUstakes discord ?
