    * Guild upgrades take about a year to reach the highest tier
    * SPS Brawl rewards should be a huge incentive for Guilds to move up tiers and not camp in the lower tiers
* SPS tier pool allocations will be drafted as a SPS Governance proposal to vote for the final numbers
* Development for SPS Brawl rewards is almost finished, but rollout is expected for later in October
    * SPS Governance proposal will need to created and voted on

    * Voucher tokens will replace Merits when buying Blood and Power stones
    * Alpha/Beta and Gold Fray distributions

## <center> Special Guests </center>

#### [NFTy Arcade](https://www.nftyarcade.io/):
* NFTy Arcade is building a platform to make lending/delegating decks easier
    * Platform will allow both the deck owner and the deck player to share rewards
    * Platform will track all the rewards and balances associated with the decks you delegate/lend
    * Allows the reward share to be customized and not just a 50/50 split
* Platform will also support pre-configured decks to be bought and sold
    * For example, if you want a maxed Gold league Modern deck, you could potentially buy a full deck if it is listed
* If you are interested in using this platform, submit to be on the [**Waitlist!**](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSc0SA-jCstmMluJnBpIJwFRb-3dbaYEflLGea8bi16xrdbeRA/viewform)
* NFTy Arcade is one of the sponsors at Splinterfest so if you are attending, feel free to stop by and meet Tyler & Jared!

-----------------------------------

#### [Playground Labs - Kapital DAO](https://www.kapital.gg/):
* Kapital DAO Project Overview
    * New solution to enable guilds, large firms/institutions, or people to operate at massive scale within web3 gaming
    * Allows asset owners to delegate their assets out to managers, who then can delegate the assets out to players
        * Owners retain full access to their assets
        * Managers can't gain full access to the assets but they can delegate them out
        * Players can only play with the assets
    * Platform can be used across multiple web3 games, not just specific to Splinterlands or Axie Infinity, for example
* Kapital DAO is currently live with Axie Infinity, Pegaxy, and Crypto Unicorns
    * Playground Labs team is currently working on integrating Splinterlands onto the platform
    * Their team has partnered with the largest SPL Guild as well (to be announced soon!)
