You kind of hinted about that. I'm super bullish to, uh,
see what comes of that.
see what comes of that. And then 710, how are you brother?
And then 710, how are you, brother?
Good.
Good.
Not much.
This week was pretty calm.
I think it's like my third spaces this week,
so it's been pretty active.
I'm going to start doing more, I think.
But yeah, it's pretty much my week sum summed up and so yeah you were killing it on
the spaces this week uh i love hearing on you on there especially the one uh i got to listen
to most i tried to catch each of them but i definitely listened uh to it worked out well
time wise for me to listen to the whole uh monad one yesterday uh that there were some funny freaking moments there it
was just it was a good space and i think um it's just overall good for the ecosystem too you know
getting you out there and um because yeah you're you're that guy you know
all right we will start it off with some just kind of how we normally do um we'll just this
week makes he said he might have to bounce a little early so we'll just kind of rush through
the first two segments and then kind of riff from there um so how did everyone do this week um we'll
kind of start it we'll pass it to mlo then silva, Megsy, and then 710 if he wants to.
I know sometimes he likes to skip this segment.
So we'll start with MLO.
MLO, how did you do this week in tournaments?
I did pretty well.
I don't know if you saw my post, but obviously I was a test player,
and then I was a pretty β at the beginning, I was a big power user.
Um, but when, when ETH shot up to 3000 something, I started, um, liquidating some of my port.
I had, I think 30 something decks at some point and I brought them down to five decks.
point and I brought them down to five ducks right and then when basically the market crashed and
Otto did his TED talk about you know TG, Frank, Mika, Evans and Zheng Tao being being packable
more often it created the perfect opportunity for me to come back in and build up my farm again.
So that's what I was able to do three weeks ago.
So this is the third week with my farm to full strength.
And I was pretty happy with how it performed.
I'm getting consistent frags.
I focus on frags. That's my farm. So I
was pretty happy with the outcome, even though Evans was definitely a surprise. I didn't see him
putting himself in reverse on time. So that threw me off a little bit. But even with him
being in reverse, we did pretty well. So can't complain.
so we did pretty well so can't complain
there i was trying to fix the hi bubba oh we have a we have a third co-host ax man my little mole
he's right here that's a magazine bubba um so yeah that's really good to hear evan definitely
messed with a lot of us um like i still hit really good frags without him. I am super happy. It's like bittersweet, right? Cause now we have another makes you like one star.
Um, and like before the end of the show, or actually it'll probably end up being tomorrow
cause you can't share your screen here, but, uh, I have a pretty, there's gonna be some
banger silver decks, but Silva, how'd you, well, we kind of talked about yesterday, but
for anyone who didn't know about, uh, yours that didn't catch yesterday, how'd you do?
Yeah, man. about uh yours that didn't catch yesterday how'd you do yeah man um overall decent week decent week a little bit below average but still okay uh ended with like 0.05 eth and then like 1500 frags which
we spun and i got got a couple of decent cards a couple usable ones uh but nothing no no great
hits or anything uh i'd say you know similar a lot my farming decks kind
of they did fine um they were farming in elite you know got between 400 and 200 place for the
most part but that's because i went i was heavy on uh pentoshi with a rare and epic and some
common sprinkled in there and i mean he just blanked so that really hurt a lot of my performance
but was still able to
come out you know with a little bit this week so and after getting so many zeros and so many lineups
i will uh take whatever i can get absolutely yeah it sounds like that's a pretty reoccurring thing is
because like the alpha is definitely out that the evan vint ness is a card to have just like a
makesy right and so having an unplanned blank on that is definitely hinders lineups.
HK, how did you do this week, brother?
Yeah.
I knew I was going to struggle as soon as Evan Van Ness said he's not posting right.
So, yeah, it kind of like messed all my gold decks up right the where farm a lot of
fragments um yeah so at the midpoint of the tournament i was pretty much like like at my
lowest rewards i probably had in recent weeks right but uh in the last day intern uh adam cochrane
the last day in turn uh adam cochran though those sort of heroes kind of did well in the last 24
hours right um i think i i think adam cochran got into the top 10 i think eventually um and that
pushed like three of my silver decks into the top 100 right and i ended up with like 2200 frags and
like 0.1 which is pretty solid um uh in a week where one of my heroes achieved blanks,
I have like a lot of everyone's cards.
So yeah, I think this next tournament,
the good thing is I have a lot of makesy and everyone's cards.
So it definitely will make deck building a lot easier for this week at least.
But yeah, it wasn't too bad at the end.
That's awesome. Yeah, it just shows the resilience of lineups right when you're able to still do well without you know one of the
heroes make see how'd you do brother had a really good week this week. I had
5,500 fragments.
It's one of my better weeks.
Yellow went up a lot.
Yeah, I had
I took
some gambles
on some of the lower stars that wound up
showing up this week.
Yeah, it was a good week.
Okay.
What'd you say you got for fragments again?
5,500.
Jesus.
That's so many.
I got nothing though.
I got nothing in the decks or in the,
yeah.
And in the draws.
So yeah,
it was like horrendous.
Everything was floor on the jades that I, I packed. And So, yeah, it was, like, horrendous. Everything was floor on the jades that I packed.
And then I got some sapphire packs, too.
And I did okay on those.
I got Imran and QW were the two that I β I mean, I like those guys.
But the other ones were floors.
Yeah, see, those are β I ended um grabbing uh i think it wasn't rare
i don't think i burnt to upgrade my emron but i grabbed one last week um i seen an uptick in his
volume um or like in his posts right looking at his 24 day um and then checking out the malt sheets
and so i uh grabbed him and then also i got really lucky with my packs uh i opened
yesterday on the fancy top down i ended up getting a rare oh what the hell is the guy's name i'm gonna
blank is it he's a decent rare um and then also i got a my second uh trader main i pulled um both
of them were in packs what's that guy's name he's oh uh icy
iceberg the penguin not the other one um but a rare of him alpha of eight i think i had 800 and
some frags um which is generally i was getting like 700 uh like five to hundred before hk uh helped me to switch lineup or switch strategies and so
like the last two weeks i've been basically all-time highs um except for like this was my
second all-time my last week was the highest but um hey ibra how are how'd you do hey yeah so i did i did all right um i think uh 1400 frags some eth i think .03 which
honestly is like not the worst week but not obviously all-time high i got kind of uh
messed up with my reverse decks i was really gonna make crazy returns my reverse but uh you know i think uh
jing tao messed that up for me bigly with uh bob black's you know free bob black's movement
uh yeah and i i think he's he's going back to uh not posting really soon so uh i guess i'll try
to play him on reverse and hope i don't get burned next week so yeah i played him in reverse last week and uh yeah that that wrecks me and so um yeah that sucked
and then i actually had bought one of his rares when i seen him post and go like that
i bought one of his rares at market to make it worse and then luckily it pumped and i was able to like get back out not losing very much
but yeah that was a dumb impulse middle of the night buy which is i gotta stick to the strategy
that um is kind of formulated for me and that's just bid bid bid right uh i need to quit market
buying um but i did my market buy a paleo this week and then i bid bought um i'm up
to four total so three i bought this week of jez which i believe is still extremely undervalued
um which seg that's a good segment and segue into the next segment which is um undervalued heroes
um or you know heroes that you're looking at for this week in the capped leagues, right?
We will stick with the same order.
So, MLO, pass to you.
Yeah, thanks.
There's a few ones that I have in mind.
There's a few ones that I have in mind.
Wants to watch is definitely QW and Emron.
They seem to be picking up their tweets,
and they said that Q2, they'll probably have more activity.
So if that stands to be correct, they'll be like a great value
because both of them are like pretty decent prices right now
and their stars are not that high.
Apart from that, another one that caught my eye is the price of Mando
has gone down a little bit, but he's still a pretty consistent one.
And the last one that I would probably say is Gabriel Shapiro.
He's been pretty consistent.
So I think he's flying still a little bit under the radar.
So those are some good picks.
I like those.
And Emron was on my radar, but Mando too.
But GQ is one that I just added to my list.
Thanks to you.
I overlooked him. Then we'll go silva what are you thinking yeah um i definitely think these you know i have two options in particular
that i'm looking at not necessarily like undervalued but more i definitely think they're
they're going to be uh good cards for
any really any star capped league uh depending on what rarity you have but i'm looking at kale
being a three star uh just because you know this past week he tweeted that he should be back
he even you know had a couple of tweets that got him on the scoreboard um so at a three star if he
performs anywhere close to his usual output you know top 20 or 30
hero really at worst at three stars i think that's super uh super valuable and similarly i'm looking
at uh the guy who screwed me over uh last week but pentoshi at a one star is again just about
if if he posts at all that's basically a a free square, right? That you're just, you're going to get so much value out of.
So I think I'll take the gamble that he'll post something that would get me more value
than he, you know, kind of takes up as a one star and frees up, you know,
frees me up to play maybe some eight, seven, six stars in some lineups with him.
Hey, KC, Pintoshi, he's one of those ones where he's almost like a tv to me at this point
not like the style but he's burnt me so much in the past where i almost just like my eyes don't
see him when i'm buying stuff but uh yeah he's definitely he there's so many good one stars this
week hk what are you thinking brother yeah uh no it that uh silver and emelo mentioned they probably
are one of probably are the sort of picks i'm looking at as well uh i did pick up at apex
on bid right 0.03 i mean i sold one for 0.05 a few weeks ago when his price bumped a bit
but he's gone back down to like 0.03 on a rare so i think i dm'd you
that when i bought him 0.03 for a rare so he kind of fits my sort of goal league strategy
um in terms of other options um i'm trying to get ansem or greg rare they're not undervalued
by by all means right but uh i feel that you know that top five
is pretty much guaranteed for greg and ansem in this sort of market right uh i was looking at the
months uh sort of spreadsheet right and it seems like the overall crypto twitter views are going
down and someone like greg just kind of benefits from that because a lot of his polls kind of got outside of crypto Twitter,
naturally, so I feel, you know, there'll be more instances of Greg in the top three in upcoming tournaments, right,
if you continue that way.
So, yeah, I'm trying to get a hold of a Greg, Rao, Ansum, Rao.
But, yeah, otherwise, I try to just pick up like you know the
grabio shapiro's mandos apex because i kind of just load up on those sort of cards because if it's my sort of strategy on how i play play the tournaments week to week um but yeah i kind of
feel i need a top rare now just to like competing in silver sometimes because i can't rely on uh
competing in silver sometimes because I can't rely on a mid hero doing well all
the time so yeah. So you have your Clemente or you mean like top top so I'd
say Clemente is kind of getting there again I'm biased towards him but like
that's my top rare but I assume you're meeting more like a Greg ICO you know
one of those top three to four heroes.
Yeah, Clemente is definitely getting there.
Like last three tournaments, he's finished in the top 10, right?
So I think for the last six, he's also finished top 10.
So he's definitely getting there.
Like I said, in this market, like he kind of,
his tweets just go off, even if it's just something like
not crypto related.
But yeah, aside from Clemente, the other heroes i have is like nick uh easy orangey these sort of heroes which from time to time do well but
not all the time right so i think i need that one hero that i know will always get me 900 plus like
i saw greg and some sort of card so yeah i think that's what's missing in my
sort of like uh inventory so i think that's my sort of next goal is to get a hold of one of them
if you have one of those cards if you can just accept my bid that'll just make it easier for me
right man like yeah you already got a good bid yesterday i'm so jealous of that and i was going
after that year too um that was a good price but it's definitely uh i love the new strategy of like bidding on
thursdays instead of me going squirrel and bidding way late like during our show right
or right before our show on saturdays which i'm way overpaying but makes you what do you think brother yeah
Pintoshi
feel like this is a good environment
for him because he's a
you know kind of a macro
poster but he does go dark
it seems during like
bear markets or but I
mean the price action has been looking
really good so I could see him doing
well
I feel like Calio But I mean, the price action has been looking really good. So I could see him doing well.
I feel like Calio, anyone who's kind of like a macro poster, you know, or could benefit from like Bitcoin outperformance would be, you know, in bull posting about that.
Those would be people, people i'd like this week
heck yeah those are again it's with a lot of heroes like going zero and stuff it's i mean i
feel like the um alpha is going to grab the more consistent heroes
or up-and-coming heroes.
A. Ibra, what are you thinking?
Yeah, so I'm thinking I'm going to keep bidding on stats.
Like, on a few stats, he's been pretty consistent.
So I probably want to make another Epic out of his card
and then probably trying to make another epic out of his card and then uh probably trying to
like work on getting another mid or high tier like like hk was talking about so you can be
more competitive in gold and silver yeah that's kind of what i'm looking at
okay yeah okay now i thought my eyes were screwing with me.
I kept seeing Bandit up here, and then he'd get back down.
I don't know if it was my end or what was going on.
Bandit, how are you?
Hey, guys.
Yeah, I'm not sure it was dropping me down.
Can you hear me?
Yeah, we can hear you.
You're good to go.
Oh, nice.
Yeah, it was just I saw the space going on, and I figured I'll come listen and maybe speak.
I don't have much to say.
I just wanted to see what's up.
You could tell us a little bit about your start.
Like since Cairo, you've all of a sudden like turned it on.
Have you become this, you know, like somebody to aspire to?
How has that journey been?
Yeah, it's super fun.
I think it's, I don't have ADHD but I
think I have some tendencies and I think like seeing the leaderboard seeing the like percentages
go up it really triggers me to like perform I don't even say that's performing it's just like
it triggers me to tweet because I want to see the numbers move so So it doesn't feel like work. I'm just always online doing stuff.
It's fun.
I don't feel like I'm...
I think early on, when I was a bit smaller account,
you have a lot more pressure because you feel like
you need to tailor your posts to have a lot of views.
You can't post too much.
But when your account grows a bit,
I'm at a point where I can just throw out tweets without thinking.
And I'm fairly confident they will always do pretty well.
So I don't have to obsess over, oh, there's a fantasy top tournament going.
I'm just kind of doing my thing and it's working out.
I'm not sure where I finished last tournament.
I think it was top 35 or something.
Let me check that.
Like you're, you've been a really, really consistent hero
pretty much for the last month or over a month probably,
which is really awesome to see.
And hopefully you're playing your legendary every week
because you're crushing.
Yeah, I missed this week,
but I'm going to buy back some cards now and start playing
again i think um i'm not sure i think i need to find like four epics that are really consistent
because i've been playing and i've always had one every week that's like me over
so i can't i can't get any good e-throughwards in elite
No leads.
Yeah.
All right.
So we are at, we hit everyone, right, on the last segment.
Now, okay, so with Maxie having to maybe leave or probably leave early, I'm going to pass it.
This is what this is kind of, we're going to get more free-flowing, pretty much anything we want to talk about.
of we're going to get more free-flowing pretty much anything we want to talk about also I wanted
to pitch it to makes he quick because one he hasn't been on a while and two he's gonna have
to leave so makes he what has your thoughts been you have like just brain dump, I guess.
Yeah.
Yeah, I haven't been thinking too much about, like, fantasy in particular,
other than, like, deck building.
The market has held up, I think, really well, you know, on the more rare more rare cards i mean these are kind of flight to
quality assets in some ways because they do throw off you know the rewards and stuff so
i've been pretty impressed by how well the market's held up um i don't know you know to what extent
like their development catalysts coming i know we've been kind of, like, hinting at that for a long time.
So, you know, we'll see about that.
But, yeah, I mean, there's a lot of stuff going on, you know,
in macro that I think will shape up kind of, like, player performance.
I'm not really focused on that, uh, either, you know, from,
from an investment perspective or anything like that,
just from like content engagement stuff. So, um, yeah, but,
but just in general, I'm like super excited and bullish, uh,
about crypto adoption just as, as a technology.
And yeah, I just, yeah, I think we're going to see a lot of like corporate adoption of
like L2s and stuff like that.
So just been doing a lot of like technical research and just, you know, with, with the amount of throughput, you know, people can get on L2s,
how easy it is to spin up rollups. I think, you know, and, and like with stable coin regulation
coming, I just think that like crypto is going to turn into basically like a cloud computing play in competitor. And yeah, just thinking about, you know, what that means.
I think crypto is going to become more like a cloud computing play.
And, you know, historically what's happened is that, you know, with open source software,
what's happened is that, you know, with open source software,
like the big cloud providers always just bundle
and they already have the customer relationship.
So they're just able to cross sell, you know, the product.
So if like L2s become a big thing,
like the roll up as a service, you know,
providers are going to have a hard time.
Like they might get acquired by, you know, the big cloud providers,
but basically like Amazon TCP, and stuff
will have their own roll-up offerings and stuff like that.
So I think it's just going to continue the trend
of block space being commoditized and going catastrophic.
And then also potentially that could be quite bearish for gas tokens, just because there's so much block space and the tech is scaling.
But really good for adoption, real-world use cases and things like that.
And we've seen that with fantasy, just kind of abstracting the chain, going multi-chain.
And we'll just see a lot more value captured at the app level.
And that's just really bullish, you know, for the industry and stuff.
So that's kind of what I've been thinking about more.
And, you know, still super bullish on fantasy.
bullish on fantasy and, you know, hoping that, you know,
the team has a, you know,
product strategy that can kickstart growth and adoption.
Think about, you know, how to, how to cross the chasm because, you know,
I think the on-ramps and everything else are only going to get easier and
better app store integration, stuff like that.
So I think fantasy is in a really good position just because it has such a
strong core already and has proven some stickiness compared to other crypto
games, you know,
in a really good position as things kind of like build out to,
to get more mainstream adoption.
Absolutely. That's the see i guess kind of what i wanted to hear because you're i always like
picking your brain on that kind of thing um and just to kind of see how you're feeling about the
space and hearing what you're saying i'm excited to see your i'm always after you take your off week
it well it sucks to have your off week
well it's good for a reverse text but it's bad because like I don't get to
you know get your daily thoughts or whatever whatever you're kind of posting
about so I'm excited especially after hearing that kind of what you're gonna
your posts are gonna be because there's a lot going on in the space and
definitely from like the tech side because i'm gonna pit you with like a
same category as like a bread guy where you guys are more technical um the way you view the space
and stuff so um that's why i like again that's why i originally started following you and stuff and
uh yeah it's super cool i'm excited to hear and see what you're doing and then also i want to
ask you quick and then i'm gonna want to pitch it to 710 um what
is like do you plan on doing the on off like indefinitely yeah i mean it's like i i think
that's why evan kind of switched up it's it's helpful if you're if you're going to be like
grinding on stuff um so it's yeah it's helpful to actually have the time back.
So it's, yeah, it's useful, uh, for me right now. Um, so it's a nice balance. I'm not gonna like,
yeah, I'm not chasing the apps or anything like that. Um, so yeah, I think, I think I'll stick
with it. You know, if it becomes the consensus, like, uh, you know, strategy, then there isn't as much value in doing it anymore.
But yeah, I think it works for me because I can just reply to stuff during my off weeks.
And yeah, but yeah, my technical posts don't do that well.
that well. They don't, you know, they don't have viral potential. And, you know, my strategy in
They don't have viral potential.
tournaments lately has been just to try to anticipate what a good, you know, a viral post
would be that would get me some multiple of my follower count in terms of views and engagement.
And that's, that's tricky to be able to like predict that I don't have anything like queued up for next week that i think would
be particularly viral if you don't get something viral in like the first you know post or two
that gets you a really good multiple then you just kind of need to like effort post through
the whole week um so it could be could be one of those um so yeah we'll just have to see about how the um
the strategy plays out i guess thank you that's what i was hoping you were gonna say because um
i'm snagging more of your uh comments because i hold your rares but i want to do more comments
and because generally like before this week was the first week i put played a reverse deck which i got wrecked um because i had the professional or whatever in
there um and then also i had kane which i don't know why i put kane in that with them um but
because he's been doing well um for a lot of weeks yeah yeah i don't know yeah i don't know
how much like the trade has played out now because like, yeah, a lot of people have been discussing it, you know, the strategy on Twitter. So it is basically common knowledge now. So it might be priced in at this point. I mean, you have to like kind of figure out what the card yield is going to be and how much that will like contribute to a deck. But definitely as more people adopt the strategy
and there are more good one-stars to play,
then that card becomes less valuable.
And like HK was saying,
you really need to have those high high star brares and epics to be able to kind of fill up the rest of the star count.
You know, because if you have multiple one stars who, you know, are going to like really outperform, you know, then, you know, you have to fill up the other 22 or 25 stars um and uh that's actually
challenging so you need like more of the top end cards uh just to be able to do that if you have
multiple one stars that you know are gonna do pretty well so yeah i'm kind of lacking in that
in my inventory as well because i've always focused on like uh high value
mids you know underpriced mids and just kind of like stack a ton of those in a deck um so yeah
strategy might need to change a little so yeah that's like uh what's not that's pretty much
sounds a lot like hk strategy that he's like, he's taking me under his wing,
which has a lot to do with the fact that I'm seeing higher rewards.
And everyone gets to see it live because we literally do it on the deck
building series.
And then,
so I wanted to pitch it to seven,
10 quick or nine quick.
What's new in the fantasy world 7gen um well mostly like past
weeks mostly all monad stuff with the uh i think we had the kaido collab with monad which is pretty
cool um anybody can be a hero on the free to play appplay app if they're in the top 10 30-day leaderboard for
monad at the end of each month but i know it's been like i think about four months since v2 got
shipped which was like the last major thing for the core app so a lot of the core app players are
getting a bit restless especially with the market and kind of all the inactive heroes.
So I know a lot of people think like we're only focused on Monad, but it couldn't be more further from the truth.
It's mostly just all the marketing and a lot of the stuff we're doing right now is super light on the dev work.
marketing and a lot of the stuff we're doing right now is super light on the dev work.
Most of the dev resources which have increased, you know, we've hired I think two new devs full-time
to help with the core app. You know, we're focused on finally getting all these bugs finalized and you know finished once and for all. We are trying to enhance the
the marketplace experience, the deck building experience to make it easier to
convert these players from the free-to-play app over to the core app.
And then we have the Anyone Can Be a Hero.
That's coming soon.
I know we keep saying soon, but it is almost there.
And then we got a couple other things.
Molt and I were working on bringing back tactics,
which will be a lot crazier than what it originally was.
I think we're going to get started on that next week
as far as the dev work and all that.
But I think that's going to be another extremely big tool
as far as the onboarding
because it's a lightweight way
to kind of play the actual core game without investing right away.
So I think that's pretty crucial, along with a couple other things that Travis and Mikado are working on as far as onboarding the free-to-play players.
But no, there's going to be a lot, like a lot of, lot of stuff happening within the next two months.
Um, so I know it's been a bit quiet for, you know, in terms of core the last couple of months, but that'll change soon.
So I wouldn't stress too much.
Um, but yeah, if anybody has any questions about what I talked or if anything else is coming, definitely open to answer.
Yeah, I just wanted to pick a brain, the Anyone Can Become a Hero thing.
Is it the free app or the main one?
That's being built out for the core app, which will handle our issue of these inactive heroes and all that as well.
The goal, you know, if we're going to kind of scale outside of our current core base
and stuff, we have to reach other parts of not only crypto Twitter but also, you know,
regular Twitter.
And we kind of already did that with the free-to-play app on the player side.
So now we kind of need to do balance again on the hero side and kind of open those floodgates a bit
more. So once we have that kind of just mass like participation on both the player and the hero
side, it kind of just, you know, the game in itself is a marketing vehicle
as far as people talking about Fantasy Top on the timeline,
pretty much, you know, seven days a week.
So once we kind of get this hero side going,
I think it's really going to kind of ignite the visibility again of Fantasy Top.
Yeah, I was going to say, I think that's a really good call.
I think probably the mindshare of Fantasy Top is going to go up a lot
when we get some new blood in.
Can you give us some insight as to how the mechanic would work on the Core app?
Because I know for Monad, you guys announced that it's, I think,
whoever's like top 10 in the Monad mindsharing Kaido, right?
So how are you guys thinking about anybody could be a hero on the Core app?
It has nothing to do with Kaido or anything like that.
But Travis will kill me if I leak any details.
So you guys are just going to have to wait.
But it'll be fun and engaging.
You know, the current or how we did in the past
with the hand selection and the vote outs,
it just wasn't, it doesn't work and it's too gated.
And I think this way is going to be a lot more fun
and engaging for, you engaging for the entire space.
Getting mindshare, getting yaps, all these things is one thing, but I think people really want to be a fantasy top hero.
And I think at this point, it's pretty obvious the engagement and the following boost that you get from being one, regardless of your following size.
So, I mean, it's a risk-free way for anyone to grow their account.
And it's pretty much guaranteed if you have a card.
So I don't see why, you know, pretty much anyone wouldn't want to try.
So, I don't see why, you know, pretty much anyone wouldn't want to try.
And then there's a lot of, you know, collateral benefits that come, you know, with attempting that.
You're getting more mind share from Kaido and all these other perks and stuff.
So it'll be fun.
But yeah, you guys will just have to see when it comes.
Yeah, that's fair.
I appreciate you, you know, giving us some like sneak peek and insight into
that i have like another question for you um what did you think of grimplin kind of like redesigning
um redesigning the fantasy stuff um what has the team thought about that and are you guys
actually gonna take him on the suggestions that he did kind of like for free
um i mean i definitely made sense um there's uh as far as like the the symbols it's kind of fractured across the site uh it's not i already showed travis and the founders and stuff and i'm
already in contact with gramplin we had some other ideas outside of, you know, just UI updates
that I was interested in discussing with him.
So that was cool.
So it's not like, you know, UI stuff isn't top priority,
but we do have some of our newer devs working on, like,
quick wins and UI updates like this.
So this is something, you know, that we can start knocking out all the devs, handle the heavy stuff.
But no, I mean, it's definitely cool.
You know, I respect Grimplin a lot.
He's been, you know, in this space and he's one of the bigger NFT artists.
So it's definitely, you know, it's cool seeing accounts like this interact with fantasy and, you know,
carrying this much to provide, you know, such feedback and stuff.
And I guess he said he did UI design for, like, video games back in the day.
So he has experience and, you know, an eye for these kind of things.
So, you know, I think it would be cool, you know, having a little bit of touch of Grimplin, you know, on eye for these kind of things. So, you know, I think it'd be cool, you know,
having a little bit of a touch of Gramplin, you know,
on the fantasy site.
So, no, that was very cool to see.
And I think we'll, you know, definitely open to his feedback
and we'll see how it goes.
Yeah, yeah, that was awesome to see that how many,
like you said, how many people like fantasy actually like there's a lot
of people in the space that like fantasy and respect what the team is doing so it's it's cool
to see when like uh you know like a known artist like that gives you guys a shout and kind of like
gives you some suggestions so that was awesome um lucifer has had his hand up for a little bit so
lucifer do you want to say something
so is anyone talking or did i get it rogue his hand up for a little bit so lucifer do you want to say something
so is anyone talking or did i get rug
carper you can't hear me no now i can i couldn't for a second i think it's because i drove away from my house and it messed up my wi-fi my bad okay now i was giving um the space to lucifer i
the space to Lucifer, I think
think um he had a question so give him a chance to talk
he had a question, so give him a chance
to talk.
Lucifer,
do you want to say something?
Can anybody hear him?
It doesn't appear that he's unmuted.
He's still muted.
You're still muted uh if
you're trying to talk lucifer all right if it doesn't work you could go down and we could
bring it back up um carpenter any anybody else has any other like questions for 710 or anything like
that i could ask him about stars but but I think that's prohibited,
so I don't want to get him in trouble.
Anybody else want to ask him anything else?
All right.
Can I just say hello in person to my favorite guy, 7'10"?
I don't think we've talked, you know, speaking officially.
Good morning, good morning.
Yo, what's up, H.J.?
What's up, MLO?
What's up, Carpenter?
Love all you guys.
Just wanted to say, hey, I'll probably have a question in a minute.
I'm just kind of, like, organizing my day and looking at my cards and stuff so i'll
chime in and so sounds good i think uh i mean after this whole space district this week i'll
start uh making it a point of emphasis to uh be here every friday and provide kind of uh
updates and voice you know a lot of these things are kind of hard,
like tedious and, you know,
to constantly communicate via text
and via Discord and stuff.
So if we can kind of like make this like a weekly town hall
and then you guys can get more access to what's going on.
You know, it's not that we don't try to communicate.
It's just, there's just so much going
on and we don't really like to pre-hype anything or, you know, things get taken out of context,
things change. But I'm definitely, you know, willing to kind of give an overview of what
we're trying to achieve without, you know, telling exactly what's being shipped and answering any
questions. You know, I know a lot of people
have concerns and questions on the timeline and it's honest it's hard to
keep track especially with the discord going all crazy so it's easier you know
doing it here so yeah every Friday if you you know come with questions and you
know I'll be prepared to answer them, I do want to point out real quick,
like I do think,
I was just thinking while you were talking,
you guys are working really hard.
I really do appreciate that.
If you guys, when you go on the app
and anyone can correct me if I'm wrong,
but every time it says,
hey, there's a new update on mobile, click here.
Pretty sure that means that they've actually worked on something on the site.
They've pushed something new.
So every single time, and for me, it's like, you know, a couple times a day at least, it feels like that means that they've actually made something better.
So, yeah, I mean, you know, it really is respectable.
You know, I appreciate the team quite a bit.
You guys are very responsive,
and I think you're way more public-facing than a lot of these projects
that come around.
And there's a bunch of reasons why I'm super bullish on fantasy.
That's one of them.
So fantasy defy Billy, baby.
Yeah, I mean, we don't over communicate.
But, you know, if you if people ask, we definitely answer.
And I know as we've kind of grown, the presence and, you know, of the founders and stuff on the timeline isn't as active.
But overall, you know, we're kind of helping scaling the team.
We have, you know, five full-time mods.
We have four full-time ambassadors.
So they kind of are all, you know, helping, you know,
this is, you know, becoming more of a community thing
in terms of keeping everything functioning
and onboarding new people.
You know, so there's been a lot of restructuring,
kind of in a sense, over the last couple months, especially since this Monad activation.
You know, so we're growing, and there is a lot of growing pains, you know, as far as, you know,
getting these bugs and stuff. But things are calming down and I think we're finally getting a direction
and we definitely have an amazing, you know,
group of people, a part of the team
and, you know, a part of the community.
So yeah, it's just gonna be fun.
It's going fast.
We're learning, everybody's learning
and we appreciate all the patience and, you know,
understanding as we, you know, try and get to where we're going.
Yeah, definitely.
I think from a marketing and communications perspective, I think that's a great idea.
You coming on here and this kind of being like you said, like the town hall that people, you know, gets to ask you a question that might get lost on the Discord.
I think that's great.
From my perspective, I think, you know,
fantasy has the opportunity to kind of prove
a lot of people wrong, right?
Because there hasn't been that many apps
that have stuck around or, like,
have actually iterated on an idea
that has some staying power.
And there's a lot of people in different discords that I'm in that are still kind of like impressed
or mind blown that the people are still playing it.
And like there's actually like a pretty active community.
And when I have these conversations with them, what impresses me the most about what Fancy has been able to do is that there's still a lot of levers that the team hasn't pulled and they have at their disposal.
So that's why, like, when people kind of talk about, oh, like, you know, some criticism is like, oh, like, it's a face is going to go away like a lot of the apps.
is like oh like that's it's a phase it's gonna go away like a lot of the apps um i always go back
to that point like they not only from the treasury but like from like like you've said like all the
marketing and like i mean i think it's been one of the top projects that's been able to like
um secure like so many opportunities for its um users right that a lot of projects don't do that
and there's so many other opportunities
and levers that they could pull that um yeah i don't think fantasy is going anywhere and with
a market like this that's you know like shopping and like kind of like taking a dip i think it
creates a perfect opportunity for people to like come back in and like you know play something
that's pretty fun and on a weekly basis.
So those were the flowers.
Now I get to ask a tough question.
And the tough question is what's going on with Blast, right? Like the team has come out plenty of time saying that, you know, they support Blast.
You know, they support Blast, they're not going anywhere.
They're not going anywhere.
So are we close to the fantasy being on the Blast mobile wallet?
Or is there any update you could give us on that?
That I don't have any update on.
It's not, I mean, the devs are working on the mobile app and getting everything fine-tuned, you know, with all these bugs and stuff.
I don't know where they are at in terms of it.
But to be honest, more of the whole blast, that's like more of a founder question that I'm not really, that's above my pay grade.
So if I could answer it, I would.
I just don't have the answer for you.
All right.
Appreciate that honest answer.
I'll let Carpenter come in here.
He's a little of a softer host.
So before he kicks me out, I'll pass it on to him.
No, I will never kick you out.
Or anyway, 7'10 is the same way. I mean, he's, uh, they've never,
the team's never straight away from 710 or the founders have never straight away from the hard
questions. Right. Um, and they're always transparent and honest. And that's one of the
things we all love about him. Right. So, um, on that note, is there anything and is my audio okay
now? Like I'm in the car now but i'm trying
like does it sound good you have a little bit choppy but it's good yeah a little bit of back
noise very good okay perfect yeah we're on the way to my daughter's we're staying up there for
her state my six-year-old made it to state so um but so on that note we'll kind of pass it. Makesy or Silva, did you guys have any questions for 710?
Because I know β or HK.
I know you guys are all super β
I have another question after those guys.
Yep, yep.
Yeah, nothing β no real questions on my side, Carpenter.
Unfortunately, I've got to head out.
I've got a meeting, another meeting at the top of the hour.
So just wanted to say thank
you so much for having me on.
Great conversation. I mean, just love
like we were saying yesterday. I mean, I
could come up here and talk for hours every day about
fantasy. So, you know, appreciate
again, the invite and good stuff,
guys. Always, always learn a lot listening to you.
Thanks for coming on, brother.
You're welcome anytime, like we were saying
yesterday. But thank you so much and good luck in your meeting, brother.
Thank you. Peace out, fellas.
Can I hop in?
Yeah, sure. Yep, go ahead.
So 710, do you guys have like an economist or someone like that that kind of keeps the
market in check and and assumes and makes assumptions about what people are going to do
and how the economy rolls from that like as far as like the card economy and all that or
yeah just the because you know the numbers um and the amount of people that play and sort of the
scenarios that may happen you know hypothetically right like technically a whale could come in and
sweep like you know 50 cards 50 of the top cards hypothetically so it's just to me it's fascinating
like that side of it where you kind of have to play the opposite game of what or what
everyone else is playing you know and assume what they do so that way you're protecting all the
players right and i'm talking about things like inflation degree and obviously like the um the
number of cards that come out the uh ability to sort of bid 0.00001 above the next person rather than 0.001, for instance.
Those kinds of things are always really interesting.
I don't know if you have some thoughts about that.
So no, we don't.
There's no specific person overseeing that.
I know.
I mean, the founders are incredibly smart.
I don't know, you know, I don't know their full background, you know, as far as education and all that.
So, but I can see how as we grow, you know, as the game goes, the economy grows, where that's, you know, a position that probably, you know, may be needed.
where that's, you know, a position that probably, you know, may be needed.
Especially, you know, across all fantasy sports, there's a huge emphasis on data and analytics.
So, you know, that's, you know, definitely important.
you know, definitely important, definitely something that needs to be applied to fantasy.
Definitely something that needs to be applied to fantasy.
And I think that's definitely, you know, something that should be brought up as we grow,
because, you know, eventually, and it's one thing that I've kind of mentioned,
just as an idea, but, you know, because top heroes are going to keep minting no matter
what, even if their inflation degree is super low. So I think, you know, eventually as we go
two, three, four years down the road, there's going to be some situations that arise that we
should probably get ahead of.
But no, I definitely agree, you know,
we need to start planning for things like that and what it looks like if X amount of players come in
and spend X amount of money.
Yeah, no, I mean, I would, like,
I would kind of assume that some of that is in play already,
just with how you guys built it,
and even the leveling up mechanism.
Everything was really well done from the start.
And I guarantee they wouldn't want to make any of that public
because anyone that knows what they're thinking on our side,
we can game the system,
which obviously would be terrible for the
whole ecosystem. So I just think it's really cool. And I do think that, you know, we should give you
props for keeping it all good for the past year. You know, there are so many scenarios that could
have happened that sort of just break down the whole game. And I think it's important, you know,
especially for the new people who are listening, right, to pay attention to that part. I think a lot of the time in these spaces,
I haven't come every week, but I try to come as much as I can. And, you know,
we take for granted kind of knowing the game really, really well. But there are people that
come in that definitely want to hear more and sort of the fundamentals for us are
are new for them so if you are new you know take pay attention to the fact that this game has been
thriving um for i think over a year again anyone correct me if i'm wrong blah blah blah but uh
you know that's that's mainnet is a year in oh sorry no go ahead oh no i couldn't tell if you i thought you stopped talking it's
probably just i went into a dip but i was gonna say here in four four weeks away from or well i
think it's like three or two weeks from like main net being uh a year of the you know 50 whatever
50 second tournament but um like it's been going for over a year guys yeah't it? Yeah, so it's just, I mean, it really is proof
because we're running games every single week, right?
So it's just, you know, it's,
there's always a chance for something shitty to happen.
Again, I think because of this community, right?
That doesn't happen, that's part of it.
The other part is the founders and, you know, the team.
So if you are new, just know, know it's it's cool to come in
um especially with the community kind of being incredibly warm and welcoming from the start
you know so if you are new and you're kind of thinking about coming in i would definitely
follow the hosts you know follow the team 710 mlo carpenter um and start looking at some of
their posts because they put a lot of fucking effort
into kind of tweeting about the game too.
So, you know, you'll definitely start to see more and more
of kind of what they're bringing up.
And it's fun, you know, like if you were in a trading,
if you like trading cards, right, just physical cards,
Pokemon, sports, and if you like crypto in general and you kind of at
least kind of check up on it once a week or a couple times a week uh this stuff is really it
gets really really fun really really fast you know and it gets really intriguing um so uh yeah
anyone's definitely available to answer any questions um i'm happy to answer any questions
if you want to dm me
if there's something i can't answer i'll pass it on to 710 or one or carpenter or you know someone
else on the team um and uh yeah just just keep on fucking winning guys i mean i think this is
this has been a lot of fun yeah definitely definitely well said um very well put together um definitely you want if you're new
you definitely want to um follow hk he's wrecked a bunch of my farms but he has a lot of good
information so definitely follow the frog he knows what he's doing absolutely and i don't know why it
popped in my head but i wanted to do if with data and analytics, anything like that, other like speaking of the frog, that's kind of what he that is what he fit for the frog. Also, H.J., we haven't heard your amazing voice much.
Also, Makesy had to bounce.
He DMed me and then did a little wavy thingy.
So he had to bounce.
I'm happy to stay on as long as we want.
And for some reason, if you guys ask something and I don't answer,
I probably went through a dip or something like in the road or whatever but is there anything 710 or HK that you wanted to
bring up or ask or anything or anyone else in the audience?
From my side nothing much like I'm pretty well informed on what the team are
working on all the next few weeks
looking forward to obviously
the new hero
mechanism I think that's what
most players on the court
app are waiting for
yeah
as for that
the deck building and all that stuff
like I said uh
um yeah uh we've got a live stream tomorrow uh so looking forward to that we've got rayon
so that's going to be a good stream uh and yeah nothing much for me hopefully i can get hold of
top rare card and you know challenge challenges to the next week
let's say yeah hopefully uh it'd be great to get that acquired on stream so if you guys haven't
accept his bid today but if you if you haven't been accepted i'm gonna be pushing hard for
accept your bid tomorrow on stream because we need to get you that top rare.
All right, so we are about an hour
and six to seven minutes in.
It's usually about,
I keep this kind of tight about an hour.
So anything else anyone wants to bring up,
you know, touch on, ask before we wrap. All right. If not, we will call it there.
Also, a little bit of alpha. We're going to have a special. I'm not going to leak who the guest is
yet, but the week after next week.
So this week we have Ray on the deck building series tomorrow at 10 a.m. that goes live on X, both mine and HK's.
Also, the week after we have a special guest. It's a hero. And that's in the league for now. But yeah, so tune in to the deck building series tomorrow, next week,
same place, same time for the fantasy hour and bring your questions again next
week. And thank you to the co-host. Thank you to the panel.
Thank you to 710. Thank you to all you guys.
And we will see you guys next week.
Peace. thank you.
Have a great day everybody. Thank you.
