A win win scenario for players or S8 revenue for the UR animal
Make a special requirement on LB just an example.
since 9K is the final milestone in here.
so if player A got 1K player B got 900 they still be getting UR because they are rank 1 & 2
But if player A get 50K player B get 45K, eg player C get 10K. Player C & below will never ever bother to join in
but if the UR is unlock say 15K points meaning as long as any players hit 15K mark they will get UR but no gold or silver trophy now this puts a spot for Player C & below either to spend gems or burn your food
it benefit the players so gold trophy hunters can get what they want but the rest of the 18 players can choose either you skip this LB & save your food for next LB or if you want the UR so bad you better work for it in a decent way.
It changes the model of the game because instead of having 2 front runners now we have maybe more players going for 15K right at the start you never know there might be a group of 20 players all going for 15K so S8 does that benefit you in a way because for sure some of the 20 players are buying gems
