Card Count / Merge Count / Card Combining is finally available feature on StakeHouse Den. As you may know, Arcade Colony games are one of the platforms in Hive Blockchain that allows users to combine their cards and achieve a better performance. Ever wondered how your card collection powers up in StakeHouse Den? Let’s dive into the magic of Merge Count — the secret sauce behind stronger cards and more rewards.
So, when you combine (or “merge”) duplicate cards of the same type, you boost their Merge Count, which is basically a loyalty tracker showing how many times you’ve leveled them up. Each merge not only upgrades your card, making it more valuable, but also ramps up your Hot Sauce generation — the in-game yield from staking your cards.
The whitepaper explains it this way:
Hot Sauce Generated = Merge Count × Generation Factor for the Card
That means every merge you do multiplies the Hot Sauce output by that card’s specific factor — and those factors are based on rarity, foil type, and level. For instance, a gold foil legendary at level 3 churns out a lot more Hot Sauce than a regular common. The deeper your card collection, the more powerful this combo magic becomes.
But here’s what makes it really cool: merge count doesn’t reset. It’s like a badge of honor on your card — showing off how much you’ve entrusted it with your time and strategy. StakeHouse Den rewards that dedication with increasingly lucrative Hot Sauce rewards each day.
Think of it this way: each merge is a step closer to a cycle of compounding gains. Combine that with smart staking of Script and cards, and you’ve got a growing, well-oiled Hot Sauce generator.
