Celebrating Steem Monsters Season 4 with a Contest - No Upvote, No Resteem, No Follow Required

in #steemmonsters5 years ago

Good Morning Everyone (yes it is morning here in Australia),

Steem Monsters Season 4 has been up and running for a few days now, and by far the biggest change that has everyone talking is the replacement of the Beta Booster Packs as Daily Quest and Season Rewards, with the new Special Edition Monsters Cards.

There has been plenty of discussion around the various pros and cons of this change already, so I'm not going to dwell on that, but instead I want to look at something that I haven't seen mentioned anywhere else.

We have a new Conflict Type - Up Close & Personal

I'm actually a bit of a fan of this particular conflict, possibly because it's new, or possibly because I don't get overwhelmed by deciding which monsters to play.

Now it's time the Contest. To enter just do the following

1 - Resteem this Post - Nope. No need to do that unless you want to
2 - Upvote this Post - Nope. Don't have to do that either unless you feel like it.
3 - Follow my Account - Nah, you don't need to do that. I don't think I'm even that interesting.
4 - Suggest a new Conflict Type that @aggroed & @yabapmatt can consider adding for future @steemmonsters seasons.
5 - Tag a friend that you think would like to enter.

The best 3 answers (as decided by me, though if you want to help me by voting for the ideas you like best, that's cool too) will each win 1 share of @SteemBasicIncome

In keeping with the @ContestKings mantra, Resteeming, Following or Upvoting is not required, but is always appreciated if you decide you want to do it.

Contest closes and winners will be announced after this post reaches payout.

Sort:  

Morning? How far behind is Tasmania?
Keep an eye out for the that new Mad Max movie, Beyond Thunderdome.

Well it was morning when I started the draft... and as we say down here, you get off the plane and set your watch back 20 years

Pilots hit google before they fly in, just to double check their intended runway has been built yet.

Nice contest, here are some I can think of:

Chaotic confusion : all monsters attack a random target
Deadly arena: All monsters lose 1 health point each turn.
Holy ground: all monsters regain 1 point of life each turn.
Like rock: all monsters get the shield ability
Revenge: all melee monsters gain retaliate ability.

@onefatindian would you like to participate?

These are great ideas - nice job!
Thanks for the tag, too 😀

I particularly like the Chaotic Confusion & Revenge ideas.

The loser wins conflict. .....

Hmmm. Can you provide some detail on how that one works?

It sounds like @rentmoney wants to award a win to the losing player. So you play your weakest cards in an attempt to lose, as opposed to win.

Correct ...

But if you win, then you lose, which means you really win, which means you really lose......

You're overthinking it. You build a team with the goal to lose the battle. Do so and be awarded the winners points.

I like this idea, @rentmoney - nice one! 😀

Thanks ....

How about a card bet match. You get to see who you play cards have to be at same level and you can bet a card. Winner gets both cards.
@funnel would you play that

Interesting concept. Not really where I was going with this contest (was just thinking of conflict options that can drop into the current rotation), but I like it.

My suggestion is

Mirror, Mirror - Summoner (and possibly team based) buffs and debuffs apply to your opponent, and not you.

For example, if I select Malric Inferno, enemy Melee Attack Monsters each get +1 Melee Attack instead of me.

If I select Zintar Mortalis, I get -1 Melee Attack instead of my enemy.

Team based abilities, Weaken, Slow, Inspire, Protect, Silence, Strengthen, & Swiftness would apply opposite to what they do now.

This advantage goes to players where they have summoners without buffs.. although, you could prevent those cards from being played...

True, but if your buffless summoners are at a lower level, you then have decide whether to play your buffed summoners to get the higher level Monster cards. Tactical thinking may be required here...

Crazy magic: only magic monsters can be used :)

I tag @talhatariq

Like the Melee only conflict. I like it.

One card against another card. Three turns and that it.
The person who win 2 turns, win the game.

Kind of like a Steem Monsters version of Rock Paper Scissors

Yeah, something like this.

How about the "Promoted Demoted" contest, where all cards are Demoted to their level 1 attributes for that round of battle? @steemmonsters @yabapmatt @aggroed

You heard it from me first! 👍

Oh, tagging a friend.. hmm, how about @tarazkp

That's not a bad idea at all. Very creative and a good way to level the playing field when taking on Maxed decks at the top of the leaderboard
