Bonus Prizes

Every participant that enters this tournament has an equal chance to win one bonus prize. It doesn't matter how well you perform in the event, you win the whole tournament or place last there is always an equal chance to get the bonus reward.

This time, bonus prizes are including a summoner:

2 Random participants will get: Level 1 Tarsa (RARE)

and other 10 Random participants will get: Level 1 River Nymph (RARE)

Loyalty System

Today, I'm gonna lay out some details about this system I want to develop to further reward players coming back to these tournaments and participating in these posts.

How to Participate:

One important thing to do before you are eligible to participate in the Loyalty System. Just leave a comment under the latest tournament post. You need to do this only ONCE. I want to rule out some of those bots that only auto-pilot through tournaments and reward actual players.

How to Earn points:

Rules are going to be very simple. For every tournament participation, you will get 1 LP (loyalty point), If you finish in the top 10 you get 1 extra LP.

You can earn a point by sharing a battle from the latest Beginner's Tourney. I'll pick 5 battles that will earn an LP for both players involved. Share your battles in the comment section below

Winners of the bonus prizes that are participating in the Loyalty system "gain" -1 LP every time they win a card.

Loyalty Reward Structure

Keep in mind that this is something I'll experiment with over time and things will change, I'll be adding and removing available rewards but I'll try to stick with the structure as long as it makes sense to me and I can afford it. So the structure currently looks like this:

#	Reward	Loyalty Point Cost
1.	Chaos Legion Pack	100 LP
2.	Random CL Summoner card (excluding legendaries)	90 LP
3.	Random CL Epic card	50 LP
4.	Random CL rare card (excluding summoners)	10 LP
5.	Random CL common card	5 LP

To redeem rewards you need to comment on the most recent tournament post with "I want to redeem reward # X times." for example "I want to redeem reward 4. 5 times (essentially redeeming 5 random rares)

I feel I can finally remove the note that stayed here for a while now ;)

Share Your Battles, Earn LP

Last week I added another way for you to earn an extra LP by sharing your battles from Beginner's Tourneys but only 2 people applied so I'm gonna leave this as a reminder.

Every week I will pick 5 battles that you guys share and reward both players from the battle with 1 LP, although the same participant can't get more than 1 point per week from this.

You can share your battles in form of a comment or create a post about it just like you would
for the Splinterlands Share Your Battle Weekly Challenge posts. If you only share your battle through a comment, tell us why do you find this battle funny, interesting, or whatever.

Which battles are rewarded is ultimately my decision but you guys may sway me of course :D
Only battle from the most recent Beginner's Tourney are eligible.

Share Your Battle LP Winners:

Since those were the only two entries, they both won an LP for all participants of these battles.

1. @maplelicious vs @imril

Shared by @maplelicious with a comment:

I choose this one for two reasons, first is I managed to pull an anti Daria/Chwala counter(the most dominant play in this tournament, maybe?) and for the second reason is, of course, its a "Chicken Kill". 🤣 😂 😘

2. @shinkurisu vs @on0tole

Shared by @shinkurisu with a comment:

Half of our cards were the same. And I was in Panic Mode when Mylor wasn't available for the "Up Close & Personal" ruleset. But I calmed down and thought about the "Spreading Fury" ruleset also available. Most of the time, I lead with Diemonshark in that case. And this battle shows why.

3. @choonie vs @cenira

4. @yu-gi-ow vs @umby77

Shared by @yu-gi-ow with a comment:

I want to share my battle, where double tank heal is super effective.

5. @philipp87vs @evolution2099

Shared by @philipp87 with a comment:

Mirror match, where Torhilio + Axemaster lost angainst Diemonshark+Demented Shark+Wave Brood

I welcome every feedback and idea for the development of the loyalty system, please share your thought in the comments below. You might've noticed that I trimmed down some DEC prices, to help me run this system sustainably, any extra support like sending DEC to my account, voting, sharing my post, etc. is highly appreciated

Beware, the tool will get affected by recent changes in Splinterlands but most of the features will work fine, also more features are coming. Still, a really useful tool to have at your disposal.
