Greetings,
We’re thrilled to announce that we’re giving away over $20,000 worth of Ethgard Legends Alpha Packs to Hive and Splinterlands stakeholders!
Backstory
When we started building the game over a year ago, we had the best intentions in mind. Using Hive as our technological platform and fully embracing Splinterlands, we initially released an early version under the "Splinter Royale" branding.
Later, when we rebranded to Ethgard Legends and shifted to EVM-compatible technologies, aligning with our vision of becoming a fully onchain game built with smart contracts, we still felt a strong connection to both the Hive and Splinterlands communities.
In fact, we use Hive as our primary long-form blogging platform and continue to follow its technical progress closely. We're also keeping a close eye on Splinterlands' development and remain hopeful for future collaboration opportunities between Splinterlands and Ethgard Legends.
Alpha Pack Airdrop to Stakeholders
To show our gratitude to both communities, we’re airdropping a small Christmas gift:
An Alpha Pack for Hive stakeholders with at least 1,000 Hive Power who have been active within 2024, or Splinterlands stakeholders with at least 10,000 SPS who participated in Governance voting within 2024.
If you're unsure whether you're eligible, we'll be sending out notification transfers shortly.
How to Mint Your Free Pack
- Sign In to Ethgard Legends using your Hive account.
- Go to the Settings page to connect an EVM address. We recommend either Metamask, Coinbase Wallet or Brave Wallet.
- Head over to your Inventory and mint your pack onchain.
- (Optional) Get a few lucky potions for extra luck.
- Open it and take the cards for a spin in the arena. (Check out our Tutorial to get quickly familiar with the game)
Onchain Transactions Gas Fees
Minting your pack requires an onchain transaction, which can be paid for in CREDITS or ETH. No reason to worry here, as transactions on Base and B3 are very cheap—on B3, they’re practically near-gasless (less than $0.001).
Paying with ETH: Ensure you have sufficient ETH in your wallet on B3 by bridging from Base: https://bridge.b3.fun. We recommend at least $1 worth of ETH, which should cover gas fees for a long time.
Minting with ETH Paying with CREDITS: CREDITS can be purchased using various tokens, including HIVE, SPS, DEC, and more.
