The launch of "Sit-n-Go" (SNG) poker in ICE Poker, the company's flagship game, has been announced by Decentral Games.
More than 60% of all daily active users in Decentraland play the well-liked six-player ICE poker game.
Now, skilled players without significant financial resources can participate in SNG events and demonstrate their worth with the possibility of moving up the ranks.
According to Matthew Howells-Barby, CMO at Decentral Games, "We've listened to our community, many of whom felt priced out by our usual wearables." "We invented Sit-n-Go because we intended to make a quick-paced 'entry level' circuit of tournaments. It's certain to be fast-paced and action-packed because of the blinds and the possibility of playing on a mobile device. The coveted All Access Wearable is finally available to players who have honed their craft and accumulated enough.
SNG makes it possible for users to engage in quick-paced, single-elimination tournaments for ICE wearables and token awards in ICE and xDG.
There are a few restrictions in the SNG format, nevertheless, that players should be aware of.
The necessary 10/20 chip blinds, which double every four minutes, will come first.
Additionally, because blinds are a required wager for all players, tournaments will go quickly and fluidly.
swift and fluid competitions
In fact, it's anticipated that competitions would run 45 minutes or less, giving those with limited free time the chance to participate.
Each SNG game's winners will receive Tournament Badges, which can be exchanged for tokens for ICE and xDG as well as the crucial wearables.
You will be refunded the Shine (money) you used to enter the competition if you place second.
This is important since your participation into each tournament is based on wearables and Shine, two separate criteria.
Purchase your accessories from the Decentral Games Marketplace.
In fact, Flex Wearables can only be used on the ICE Poker Flex App, while All Access Wearables can be used in both Decentraland and the Flex app. Tournament Wearables can only be utilized in SNG tournaments.
Players can thus begin playing in the new SNG format with a Tournament Wearable and, after demonstrating their mettle, can advance to the Flex or All Access Wearable.
A specific amount of Shine on the wearable required for each tournament entrance can be replenished with ICE tokens.
Shine up your garment by adding some.
The number of Tournament Badges they will win is equal to how much Shine they used, and different tournaments and events will have different Shine requirements.
With the start of the SNG events, the ICE Poker community has yet another incentive to shine.
The ICE token now has an additional layer of utility thanks to this new mode, and if the SNG mode is successful, demand for the token will inevitably rise.
ICE Poker takes pride on having a sustainable economy, in contrast to many of its play-to-earn predecessors.
Instead of being awarded to winners, some of the ICE used for Shine is burnt, creating a token sink for the game's economy.
