<p>They are cards that are connected to your account (soul) and cannot be sold or exchanged, and can only be used by the original account.
This type of card came with the aim of rewarding players instead of bots, as it will discourage bot farms since they will not be able to sell the cards.
This idea is not 100% new. The cards used in brawls are already soul bound, that is, they can only be used in brawls and cannot be sold or traded.</p>

> <p>Elas são cartas que ficam conectadas a sua conta (soul) e não vão poder ser vendidas nem trocadas, podendo apenas serem usadas pela conta original.
Esse tipo de carta veio com o objetivo de recompensar os jogadores ao em vez de bots, pois vai desinsentivas as fazendas de bots já que não terá como vender as cartas.
Essa ideia não é 100% nova. As cartas usadas nos brawls já são soul bounds, ou seja, elas só podem ser usadas nos brawls e não podem ser vendidas ou trocadas.</p>

<h2>IS THIS THE END OF REWARD CARDS?</h2>

<p>In the town hall there was talk of an idea to replace the current reward cards, which are nfts, tradable and sellable, with soul-bound rewards cards. The purpose of this exchange is to discourage the use of bots, which play in lower leagues, win cards and sell them, causing their price to always fall over time. Still, this idea comes to avoid the monopoly of cards by big players, who buy these cards already in max form a few days after launch, when bots dump in large quantities. </p>

<p>The incentive for players from higher leagues from what has been said will be a higher number of cards in the chest. Another point said is that only when the cards are maximized will there be the possibility of burning them to get dec.</p>

<p>Current reward cards that are still being minted will continue to appear in chests normally, but after that there will be no more reward cards like today, they will only be soul-bound.</p>

<p>I don't know about you, but I was really happy when a new letter came. That same happiness didn't happen with brawl cards.</p>

> <p>No town hall foi comentada uma ideia de substituir as reward cards atuais, que são nfts, trocáveis e vendíveis, por soul-bound rewards cards. O objetivo dessa troca é desinsentivar o uso dos bots, que jogam nas ligas baixas, ganham as cartas e vendem, fazendo com o preço delas sempre caia com o passar do tempo. Ainda, essa ideia vem para evitar o monopólio das cartas por grandes players, que compram essas cartas já na forma max alguns dias depois do lançamento, quando os bots despejam em grande quantidade. </p>

> <p>O incentivo para jogadores de maiores ligas pelo que foi dito será um número maior de cartas no baú. Outro ponto dito é que apenas quando as cartas forem maximizadas haverá a possibilidade de queimá-las para obter dec.</p>

> <p>As reward cards atuais que ainda estão em processo de mintagem vão continuar aparecendo nos baús normalmente, mas após isso não haverá mais cartas de reward como as de hoje, elas serão apenas soul-bound.</p>

> <p>Não sei vocês, mas eu ficava bastante feliz quando vinha uma carta nova. Essa mesma felicidade não acontecia com as cartas de brawl.</p>

<h2>THE NEW VISION OF THE TEAM:</h2>

<p>Even in the town hall it was very clear that the focus of splinterlands has changed. It has been said that the plan now is for splinterlands to be more like traditional games where people play for pleasure. It was said that they want people who have the mindset of "Hey this is a fun game, I want to keep improving my account over the years", like what happens in "normal" games. The difference is that in that model you will have built something that as they said "hopefully has real value".</p>

<p>At first it seemed to me that this issue of the end of reward cards was just a comment, but given the level of detail presented and how they will give a deadline for these changes, December, I think we can say goodbye to reward cards like the ones meet and say hello to soul-bound and a new splinterlands, more focused on play than earn. Strange because initially it was supposed to have both, because we know it as play2earn. However, we only saw earn and no play, but now it seems that we are going in the opposite direction.</p>

<p>Nothing was said about issuing SPS or DEC. I currently play bronze and only gain 1 sps each, I don't know 3 days maybe. I don't know if after these changes the alts I have in bronze will be worth playing, as the rental cost may end up being more expensive, since the sps drops in price and the dec is stable, but the rental cost remains the same . </p>

<p>It was said that the team will focus on the entry of new players in its new roadmap, but thinking from the point of view of a new player if I want to enter a game like the traditional ones, that I have to buy the cards to to win something and that not even the card I win is really mine to do what I want, I think I would stay in traditional games. Remembering that we still have to buy the spellbook.</p>

> <p>Ainda no town hall ficou bem nítido que o foco do splinterlands está mudado. Foi dito que o plano agora é que o splinterlands seja mais como os jogos tradionais, em que as pessoas jogam por prazer. Foi comentado que eles querem pessoas que tenham o mindset de "Hey esse é um jogo divertido, eu quero continuar melhorando a minha conta ao longo dos anos", como o que acontece nos jogos "normais". A diferença é que nesse modelo você terá construído algo que como eles falaram "esperançosamente tenha um valor real".</p>

> <p>A princípio me pareceu que era só um comentário essa questão do fim das reward cards, mas pelo nível de detalhes apresentados e como eles derão um prazo para essa mudanças, dezembro, acho que podemos sim dizer tchau para as reward cards como as conhecemos e dar oi para a soul-bound e para um novo splinterlands, mais focado no play do que no earn. Estranho por que inicialmente era para ter os dois né, pois conhecemos como play2earn. Entretanto vimos só o earn e nada de play, mas agora parece que estamos indo no caminho contrário.</p>

> <p>Nada foi dito sobre a emissão de SPS nem de DEC. Eu jogo atualmente no bronze e ganho apenas 1 sps a cada, sei lá 3 dias talvez. Não sei se depois dessa mudanças as alts que eu tenho no bronze vão valer de serem jogadas, pois o custo do aluguel pode acabar ficando mais caro, visto que o sps cai de preço e o dec fica estável, mas o custo do aluguel se mantém. </p>

> <p>Foi dito que o time dará foco para a entrada de novos jogadores em seu novo roadmap, mas pensando pelo ponto de vista de um novo jogador se for para entrar em um jogo como os tradicionais, que eu tenho que comprar as cartas para ganhar algo e que nem a carta que eu ganho realmente é minha para fazer o que eu quero, acho que eu ficaria nos jogos tradicionais. Lembrando que ainda temos que comprar o spellbook.</p>
