RE: Splinterlands Recent News: WILD PASS Will Be Required Starting Next Season + My Next Upgrade Target

...I don't like the fact that in order to fight bots even real players playing in the Wild Format have to suffer collateral damage.
Yep, I'm one of those real players who enjoys playing, but am not a powerhouse player. I had pretty much given up on Splinterlands until I came back and saw the new format. I even wrote a Buzz about how much fun I was having playing again. https://d.buzz/@epodcaster/it8kz8r0rb6np3sxfzlwbl
Yes, I have been playing Wild. However having been away from the game for so long I missed out on all the hubub around Wild being bot heavy. Things are making more sense now that I know that fact.
When the season ends and the change comes I'll probably put Splinterlands back on the shelf for now.

Playing in the Modern Format is fun because there are no bots and I only play in the Modern.
I have always been for the complete elimination of bots from Splinterlands and for that reason I see Wild Pass as a hybrid and incomplete solution.
If the Wild pass will decrease bots it could also happen that the rewards for real players will increase and the cost of the wild pass could be completely covered by the increased earnings.
I will verify just that in my test.
If, on the other hand, the opposite happens Splinterlands will eliminate many bots but will also displease many real players...
thanks for your comment
Playing Wild has been fun because I am only able to use cards I own. That fact is what prompted me to buy a few Summoners. I like the challenge of being solely dependent on what is in my own deck.
I'll ride out Wild and then give Modern a whirl. Who knows, maybe I'll like it better.
