Tollan’s new season splits the race in two

The Season 0.5 leaderboard had just frozen, and Tollan players were still waiting for the prize review. XAI traded in a narrow range around $0.070. The rules gave players a clearer direction for practice, while making last season's habits an unreliable guide to ranking.

The Season 0.5 leaderboard had just frozen, and Tollan players were still waiting for the prize review. Yet preparations for Season 1 were already in view. For anyone planning to continue, the question was how much of their old approach to play and scoring would still apply.

XAI traded in a narrow range around $0.070. Tollan released the Season 1 rules: ogres became the main target, scoring was redesigned, and a cumulative leaderboard would run alongside a single-run leaderboard. The prize pool included crystal packs, USDC, and season passes. One player in the chat realized that building a steady total and chasing a high score in one run might call for different preparation, and began treating them as separate goals.

The rules gave players a clearer direction for practice, while making last season's habits an unreliable guide to ranking. That player decided to understand the new scoring before choosing which leaderboard to pursue. The Season 0.5 prize review was still under way, leaving the old results and the new season's plans side by side.
