Goons of Balatroon (GOB) has become one of the hottest and wackiest nonfungible token (NFT) Card Trading game universes of 2021. The team has announced the launch of their Genesis Goon Card Packs that are available for purchase in their online store starting December 28.
The Goons of Balatroon is a collection that was launched in August 2021 with 9,696 Goon avatar character NFTs. People who own a Goon Avatar can now earn and accumulate $GOB rewards by delisting their assets from the marketplace.
Every one of the unique Goon characters is set to appear in an NFT-based play-to-earn (P2E) trading card game that is scheduled to launch in the first quarter of 2022. This game is designed to be a battle for the mythical land of Balatroon and then explore the Goon lore as factions relentlessly fight for the control of Balatroon using the Goon cards. The goal of that game is winning $GOB token rewards.
Players can participate in the $GOB economy and then craft abilities that will eventually lead them to victory against the competition. Newly launched Genesis Packs are nonfungible token digital assets that comprise five Genesis Goon Card NFTs.
These packs can be claimed in one of three ways. The people who own a Goon Avatar NFT can get a single free pack per Goon Avatar NFT and use accumulated $GOB from the rewards platform to buy extra packs. For the people who do not own a Goon Avatar NFT, the packs can be bought using $GOB and $ETH.
The Genesis Packs Sale started on December 22 and it will last until it sells out. Users require a Metamask Wallet to make a purchase. Packs will be tradable immediately on the Immutable X marketplace. Currently, Genesis Packs are valued at 0.0069 $ETH/1000 $GOB, with the discounts made available for many pack purchases.
Every pack has five random cards that provide either Rare (21.42%), Epic (3.14%), Common (75.17%), or Legendary (0.27%) rarity in a Regular or Shiny edition. Upon purchase, the Genesis Packs will be unopenable with the unpacking functionality becoming available in January next year, before the game’s official launch.
The minted nonfungible tokens (NFTs) can be acquired, sold, and traded on Immutable X’s gasless marketplace. This launch of the Genesis Packs is the most recent milestone in the Goons of Balatroon’s roadmap. In the coming year, fans and collectors of the Goons universe can expect to see a $GOB Token Launch, Game Launch that comes with a play-to-earn (P2E) launch celebration, and Crafting Stations.
These Crafting Stations give players the opportunity and ability to create new Goon Card NFTs using $GOB and NFT Leasing functionality. That functionality lets users lease their Goons NFT to share the available rewards.
For anyone interested in purchasing any Genesis Pack, they have a well-stocked online store. With such events and sales coming up, the nonfungible token space is assured to go mainstream in the coming years.
