The famous trading card game presented Runi, the new NFT project. This collection of NFTs looks to be amazing, with a unique gameplay experience. Let’s continue without further ado and find out more!
What is Project NFT Runi?
Project Runi is expected to launch on the Ethereum blockchain and allow for 6,500 NFTs to be minted. These NFTs will allow for easy ownership (outside of renting NFTs) of digital assets available in Splinterlands. With the Runi collection, players will be able to acquire and play with these unique NFTs for the very first time in Splinterlands.
Project Runi allows users who have purchased an NFT to connect their Ethereum wallet to use the NFT in the game. Afterwards, Runi owners are entitled to receive a unique Splinterlands profile picture and an in-game promo card. This promo card can be used during battles to get additional gameplay potential.
The Runi NFT project contains 6 unique traits that will form the aesthetics and unique properties of each NFT. Regarding this exciting project, the CEO of Splinterlands commented:
“We have always been forward thinking at Splinterlands and are constantly working to provide our players with the best gaming experience possible. The mint of our brand new Runi NFTs will allow us to continue to offer new and exciting experiences to users while expanding Splinterlands’ visibility on the Ethereum chain.”
Runi NFTs: A brief description
Runi NFTs is the first generative NFT project in the game. It is similar to projects such as Bored Ape Yacht Club and Crypto Punks. A generative NFT means that players can hit these Runi NFTs with a unique and random combination of visual features. Runi cards acquire the same abilities, stats and attributes in the game. However, at each location where a Runi is presented, an artwork unique to that specific NFT will be displayed. The display of unique artwork creates a truly innovative and user-oriented experience for players.
In general, NFTs that work this way are called PFPs, which stands for profile picture projects. Many users use these unique NFTs as profile pictures on various social media platforms, but especially on Twitter. It’s inspiring to see these unique PFPs in Splinterlands, and we’re sure we’ll see them all over Twitter!
The Runi Card
The Runi map will be a 6 minute neutral and legendary monster map. It’s a bit long, but it’s a staple in many team combinations for the game. Ideally, these cards should generate high hit and resale value for players in the NFT market.
NFT’s Runi card involves a super-powered melee attack, sure to easily take down your enemies with the least amount of health possible. In addition, the card has the True Strike ability, which is sure to rarely miss. Further on, we can see that the card has other features, such as armor and respawn abilities.
How will the Runi NFT be hit?
Runi NFT cards can be minted via the Ethereum blockchain. They are expected to cost around $500 each. However, this amount is not yet set in stone, as it will depend on the current market for USD versus ETH, but you can check it on the NFT marketplace and on Coin Market Gap. Let’s say you want to mint a Runi card when it becomes available. In this case, you need to have the correct amount of ETH in your wallet to buy the NFT and pay the gas and transaction fees.
When will the strike take place? Well, you still have some time to wait. The strike is scheduled to begin on October 25 at 2 p.m. ET/6 a.m. UTC. Once all the NFT Runi are minted, you won’t be able to get your hands on them. The only way to find an NFT Runi after the strike is to acquire one on the OpenSea marketplace.
Other interesting features include gold foil NFT Runi. These NFTs are incredibly rare, with a 50/50 chance of getting one. These gold foil NFTs are represented by a top trait, with unique attributes and bonuses that you will discover during battle.
The introduction of Runi NFTs is an exciting development for the future of Splinterlands, with the ability to use PFPs. This in itself should cause a surge in new players. Runi cards are incredibly unique, and when they go, they go, which means they are likely to become more valuable!
