RE: The Forces of Dark Energy are about to be Unleashed!
Nice additions to the game, I like it very much. Only thing I'm not sure about is the capture rate. If I got it right winning only 25 games each day will give you more DEC than winning 100 games every 4th day? Kinda incentivises less play. But I'm not sure if it works like that at all.

It doesn't work exactly like that. The ECR reduction per game is 1% of the current ECR meaning that if you are at 50% ECR and you play a game, it will be reduced by 1% of 50% which is 0.5%, so your resulting ECR will be 49.5%.
That means that if you start at 100% ECR you can play 28 - 29 games before you get down to 75% which will regenerate in 1 day. If you play 100 games, that will bring your ECR down to around 36%.
The end result is that after ~29 games / day you won't earn any more DEC, so a bot that plays 100+ games / day will earn roughly the same amount of DEC as a player of equal rating that plays 29 games / day.
So as you note, there's no incentive as far as earning more DEC to play more than ~29 games / day, however if you can increase your rating by playing more games then that is well worth it because it will increase your future DEC earnings exponentially.
Yeah, okay that makes sense. Thanks for the reply!

I have seen that the more you play and win and less crystals you get, it is like the average percentage of the crystals you receive after more winnings decreases. Maybe it is because they are trying to let also "weaker" people to play and have their chance to get crystal when the "strong" people stop playing for a while trying to recharge the possibility to get their crystals..I don't know it is just my opinion.
But would decentivize continuous BOT play right?
I know that is why there is a limit. But the problem I find that when you are at lower percent of capture power that you get less tokens. Maybe there could be a flat amount that you can get with every win but when you exhaust the capture rate you stop gaining. I dont know if I make sense with this. Either way bots will farm more than players just because of their consistency. Bot can be made to win certain amount of games per day anyway.
