New system announced for Rebellion Airdrop cards: Holding packs and cards becomes a requirement

In a recent Town Square session, Markh0or asked an interesting question about Rebellion airdrop cards, which led to an important announcement from the SL team. This development addresses concerns about how these airdrop points affect the sale of cards and packs, especially in light of past practices where users bought packs in bulk but had no intention of opening them, instead selling at lower prices.

In response to Mark's question, the team revealed their plans to introduce a new system for Rebellion Airdrop cards that differs from the previous approaches for Chaos Legion and Rift Watchers. This new system will require users to keep their packs, or the cards they contain, in order to be eligible for airdrops.

While the basic principle remains the same - buying more packs means more airdrop rewards - there is an added dimension. This adjustment solves the previous problem where individuals could accumulate packs, flood the market with them and then claim all the airdrops. With the upcoming announcement revealing the full details of this innovative system, it is clear that Splinterlands is actively working to ensure fairness and sustainability in their airdrop programme.

In summary, this announcement shows a significant change in the way Rebellion Airdrop cards are distributed, with a focus on encouraging the retention of packs and cards rather than quick resale.
