GMS · v2.6 RELEASE NOTES

00 · BADGES

A record of what you actually did.

The app knew your balance, your cards and your decks, and remembered nothing about how you played. Badges are that memory — earned by doing things, visible on your profile, and worth something.

Badges across eight rarities, from common up through legendary and mythic, plus hidden eggs and commemorative OG badges that stay open while the season is open.
A rank, points per badge, and a Badge Score — with a leaderboard for the score, so the record is comparable and not just personal.
Complete a whole rarity and it pays. Seven grand rewards, one per rarity, granted automatically in the same transaction that records them — scan charges, snipe ammo, Oracle minutes, and at the top a permanent tier.
Nothing here is farmable, and nothing pays money. Badges are awarded for positive play only — there is no badge for losing, and no badge pays SOL. The rewards are app credit, so the board cannot be bought.
Your most valuable badges sit beside your name, chosen by what they are worth rather than by what you earned last.

01 · SKR

A second currency, with no penalty for using it.

SKR was something you could hold. In v2.6 it is something you can play with — on both sides of the transaction, at the live rate.

Enter a tournament in SOL or SKR. Per entry, your choice, converted at the current rate.
Take your rewards in SKR too. If your wallet has no SKR account yet, it is created inside the same claim transaction — and you choose whether that one-off cost comes from SOL or from the payout.
A refund comes back in the currency you paid. Pay in SKR, get SKR.
There is no SKR surcharge. A spread was built during development and removed before release; paying in SKR costs the same as paying in SOL.
In the Shop, SKR pays a 10% bonus on what you buy, shown on the line as you add it.

02 · ODDS

Surviving one round is now worth more than entering.

The old ladder paid almost everything to the last few decks, so most of the field played for the chance of a large prize and nothing else. The shape changed.

Round 2 now pays above the entry fee. Roughly a quarter of every field moves from "got your money back" to genuinely ahead, funded by trimming the very top placings.
The prize pool baseline is the full entry take, and the round 3 and round 4 multipliers were raised with it.
The top of the ladder still pays the most. It simply no longer pays all of it.

03 · HOURS

Watch the round before it happens.

A round takes hours to resolve and card power moves the whole time. Until now you could see only the present.

An hour slider on the live round. Step forward hour by hour toward execution and the pairings re-score at that hour — every battle, and the winning and losing filters with them.
The last still-reachable hour is amber, and it walks backwards as the round's remaining time runs out, so the end of the window is always visible.
Past rounds keep the slider visible but locked where you left it, rather than hiding a control that was there a moment ago.
Pairings are ordered by deck power and hold their scroll position per round instead of jumping to the top.

04 · POWER

One number, everywhere.

The Cards page and the tournament screens each worked out card power for themselves. Most of the time they agreed, which is the worst possible property for two calculations to have.

Both screens now read power from one shared source. The same card cannot show two different numbers depending on where you look at it.
A correction to a card's power reaches the app on the next refresh instead of waiting for a restart or a six-hour resync.
Power is recalibrated per coin, against each coin's own trading turnover rather than one flat curve, so a quiet hour no longer reads as a strong one.
Rating history runs about a year, up from roughly eight weeks — long-burst ratings finally have the history they claimed to use.
The 7-day change behind power comes from our own recorded prices, instead of a vendor figure that could sit frozen for hours and then jump.

05 · LEVEL

Two identical decks are level, and it says so.

Two decks holding the same three cards have the same power at every instant. The pairing card rendered that as neither ahead nor behind — the same blank it uses for a power it has not worked out yet.

A level pairing now says it is level, and that entry order decides it. It does not name the winner, because the entry order is not published before the round settles.
The underlying cause is fixed too. Deck power was added up in whatever order the cards happened to be stored, so two identical decks could differ by a rounding fraction — and be decided by that fraction instead of by the rule.
Settlement itself was never wrong. Live tied pairings were checked against the tournament's own records and every one resolved to the deck that entered first.

06 · CLAIMS

Paid once, and paid to the right people.

A claim is recorded before its payout transaction is built, so the same reward cannot be paid twice. One reward had been.
A claim left half-finished resolves itself. Reservations that expire are now settled from the chain rather than sitting stuck until someone noticed.
Claims wrongly held "under review" are released. Unrelated treasury movements were being read as unexplained and blocking legitimate claimants.
The claim settler no longer stops after the first batch of records.

07 · TRADE

A desk that shows its pulse.

A live tape across the trade pages — the last trade on Sniper and Ratings, the last listing on Listed, the last swap on Swap, with direction coloured where it is known.
Swapping works with Solflare and Backpack. Both failed before, because they could not sign a transaction without also sending it.
Opening Trade → Swap no longer crashes the app.
Snipe ammo is charged when the purchase actually lands on chain, not when the attempt is built — so a buy that never landed no longer costs ammo, and one buy cannot be charged twice.
Purchases that the card mirror missed are caught: when the listings feed goes quiet, the window it missed is backfilled instead of leaving a hole.
Snipes that succeeded on chain but stayed "pending" in the app are now confirmed automatically.
SKR is pinned as a third coin on Swap.

08 · CHAMPS

One player, one line on the board.

Wallets proven to belong to one player are merged into a single Championship entry, so one person no longer holds several positions on the same board.
Best Strategist and Total Points each gained a second ordering — net SOL, and an Olympic-style medal table — ranked across the whole field rather than the visible page.
Best round reached now counts as a trophy tier, and every sub-page carries the closing countdown for the current tournament.

09 · ALSO FIXED

Quietly not working.

Buying Oracle time failed on every purchase. A comment inside the purchase query broke it outright. Fixed, and Oracle time has been selling since.
The in-app updater advertised a version and served the previous file, then for a while served nothing at all.
The Enter page named the wrong tournament as current and upcoming, so entering the one labelled Upcoming answered that it had closed.
Every projected round time was an hour late, and a live round showed its execution time where the app reads the start time. Rounds now read starts at, started at, or ended at.
The Predict chance table was shifted by one round against the real schedule.
New accounts did not receive their free scan charge, and the first free scan was being spent by the automatic seed scan.
The User page kept the previous wallet's name and transactions after signing in with a different wallet.
Cards bought moments before an owned-cards scan finished were dropped from your collection view.
Reward counts and the badges line printed a literal %d instead of a number in several languages, and decimals were formatted wrongly in Czech.
Long translated labels were clipped rather than allowed a second line.
Page switches are instant — the 700 ms crossfade and the diagonal card fly-in are gone.
Transaction history on the User page covers everything, not a recent window.
