Recapitulation of Solchicks PROJECT AMA event held at AMA LOVERS CLUB.

Venue: https://t.me/amaloversclub
Date: Saturday, 10th December, 2021
Time: 15:00 UTC

The Solchicks PROJECT team was represented by @Auloap who judiciously shared with us detailed knowledge and information about Solchicks PROJECT.

1st Segment: INTRODUCTION

Q1: Can you please introduce yourself and your background, also introduce the team working on Solchicks?

ANS: Hi my name is Paulo!

I'm one of the Core Leads at SolChicks. I'm overseeing Marketing, as well as Partnerships with other guilds, companies and other P2E games!

Q2: Before we proceed, how big is the Solchicks team?

ANS: I believe we're about 80+ now

From about 20 different countries, and this lets us have staff oversee the community groups that we have in Korea, China and other Southeast Asian countries (and we are still looking for more so if anyone is interested please do get in touch!).

Our core team all come from a business background, and have learnt their trade in MBB consulting firms and bulge bracket investment banks. Our CEO, William studied at Wharton, and has worked at McKinsey & Company and Oaktree Capital. The other members of our core team have come from Bain Capital, JPMorgan Chase and other top tiers firms.

We have combined this business acumen with a blue-chip game development team called 0xplay from Korea - they will be working for us full time and have decades of experience in companies like Nexon and Line, leading devs for MapleStory, PUBG, TERA, Dungeon Fighter, and Heroes of New Earth.

This is why we have been able to put together such a high quality demo in such a short space of time. For those of you who have not played our demo, feel free to access this (for free) at https://www.solchicks.io/game-access/

We believe that with the best team + the fastest moving quality project, we are sure to dominate the markets come 2022!

Q3: Can you introduce Solchicks, what critical problems does it solve that existing solutions are not solving and what's the competitive advantage?

ANS: SolChicks is one of the first NFT-powered play-to-earn fantasy games on Solana (We’ve recently hit #1 in Solanart and other Solana Marketplaces!).

It combines features from all your favourite traditional games - including Diablo, League of Legends and Dota.

As a solution, we wanted to build a game that was actually fun; in contrast to what’s out there in the market. We believe that by building a PvP based, immersive gameplay with skill trees, quests, class changes and tournaments, we can bring people to playing P2E games not just because it’s earning money, but because it’s fun too!

We believe this pull for an entertaining P2E is an untapped potential in the current playerbase.

Q4: Can you briefly describe the top milestones you have achieved and your target milestones with timelines, also share your roadmap?

ANS: For sure. We are 3 months old, yet our community has blown up to over 700k, with 80+ staff across different countries!

Even our demo is out now and that’s just with 1 month of development with the team we onboarded and we have a playable boss battle already

We are on track to selling the rest of our 5000 solchicks next month, followed by the alpha in Q1 of 2022! We will be launching the full game, including play-to-earn aspects by mid-late 2022.

Q5: Can you briefly describe your PARTNERSHIPS so far?

ANS: Sure thing! A full list of our (growing) base of partners can be found at https://www.solchicks.io/partners

We have notable partners like Metavest, GD10, Spartan, Master Ventures, Fundamental Labs, and AU21

We are very proud to also have many gaming guilds who believe and partner with us

To date, we have 35-36 launchpads!

Each launchpad usually has a loyal following since staking is usually required. This gives us to captive audiences of a few hundred thousand per launchpad! Having more launchpads definitely beats the world record, but we do it because we wanted to try something new, and to give everyone a chance at coming in at a competitive rate with the public launch.

Q6: Can you give an overview of the Tokenomics and Utility of $CHICKS tokens?

ANS:

We have a ton of support for the ecosystem rewards (play to earn aspect), so our players can be assured that you will be rewarded well!

As for the utility, It will be the governance token, and will be a key currency for buying future SolChicks in the in-game marketplace. It is also used to purchase other sub-currencies in the game!

We have announced last week that we will also be introducing staking for the $CHICKs token.

The token will be inflationary in that sense, yet deflationary in how it’s a required token to burn for breeding. For now, we are still focused on balancing out the game before we introduce more utilities.

We hope you’ll follow our socials closely; it may come sooner than later!\

2nd Segment: LIVE Questions

Q1: Solchicks canceled the allocation meant for @METAPLAYio because their CEO made death threats and racial slurs against Asians. Thus is impressive and simply shows that SolChicks do not condone Violence/Racism. But I learnt that the whitelist for Metaplay users will be reopened. So can you tell us what the funds gotten from the allocation will be used for? And what is the reason for your decision?

https://twitter.com/Abiodunbbey/status/1469303514161721344?s=19

ANS: https://solchicks.medium.com/metaplay-charity-token-sale-ido-71ba87aa5265

Here's a basic account of that mini saga. We have since opened a separate IDO specifically for Metaplay users who were whitelisted for the token! We will give them a chance to buy our tokens still, though we cancelled Metaplay's allocation.

However, we will be using this money for a charity, and SolChicks will not take any amount from that specific sale. :)

Q2: I read that the battle between SolChicks is concluded when all other SolChicks have either been knocked out or have fled. Does this mean that players have the option to flee once the battle becomes excruciating? If yes, between fleeing and getting knocked out, which one has the most debilitating effect on the SolChick? Finally, what level does a SolChick need to have reached before it can participate in the Raid (PVE) game mode?

https://twitter.com/Lalaofafrica/status/1469315074498179076?t=4bPU7oJlMgxEzGadKsb8jw&s=19

ANS: thanks for this. Here's our in-depth game mechanics paper for more info! https://www.solchicks.io/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/SolChicks_GameMechanics.pdf

Raids should be made available at max level, which is level 60. There are also tons of progress milestones prior that. After level 60, the game opens up to other modes too. Stay tuned!

Q3: About an hour ago, solchick announced on it Twitter page that its minting 10,000 unique Solchick warriors that we can collect and breed to make new and special $CHICKS. Can you tell us the procedures to follow to successfully Mint our own NFTs?

What tokens do we need to Mint successfully? Is it BTC or BNB or Sol and will users in all regions be able to take part in the Minting or its Limited to certain region?

https://twitter.com/Rektoshi1/status/1469323168837865473?t=FxC0EMOv9SZW1RaAxCcVeQ&s=19

ANS: Tokens will definitely be in solana. We may be minting in January.

Q4: I tried out the game demo from your site and I can confirm that the Solchicks Game is very different from other collectible games. However, I don't see how users can earn from the demo game. So can you simy tell us how we can earn $CHICKS from Solchicks?

https://twitter.com/KezmaKezma1/status/1469311848147308547?t=thkcMFpu4DWaLL2FXUyKqw&s=19

ANS: Yes no $CHICKS can be earned yet. The earnings will come by mid-late next year when we do a 1.0 launch! It'll be coming sooner than any other project in solana!

Q5: Hi 🌟
Can you tell us why did Gamefi didn't launch Solchicks? Why did they back off from launching Solchicks?

https://twitter.com/Rakshhit/status/1469324197641945093?t=Ob4lLTe7N7-KS241LKBC7A&s=19

ANS: Thanks for this question. Actually, GameFi is still an investor in SolChicks. They backed out as a launchpad only, but they are invested as a partner. :) This is very understandable, as not many launchpads like having 30+ other pads. However this does not mean they don't believe in SolChicks, seeing as they have invested in us still.

Q6: Hello 😇
Can you tell me how much money is required to play the game? Also the game will be easier to understand or not? Can a non gamer play it easily?

https://twitter.com/Rakesh200x0/status/1469324645992001536?t=1QolF2BoPSPfo9kAKR-FfQ&s=19

ANS: You will simply need our SolChick to play. It's priced at 15sol for now, though it may be cheaper when we soon mint again. We'll be launching an NFT-loaning system next year, in case the price is out of reach! This makes it that anyone with or without a budget can play and earn.

Q7: When a player starts the game, is there a particular level that is required before you can participate in PVP mode?

https://twitter.com/Uchego2/status/1469316699723862026?s=19

ANS: Level 15. Before that, we'll have a tamagotchi-like gameplay while you get to know the game space. You can still earn $CHICKS even at lower levels, no worries.

Q8: Your TGE was delayed from 7th to 13th of December. Is this in lieu of the current Market Situation or the decision was taken to allow the team ample time for development and to meet up with laid down goals ?

Just out of curiosity, Would we have seen a failed project If you had stick to your initial date of 7th December ?

https://twitter.com/Hot32732298/status/1469323788340785154?s=20

ANS: Not really due to the market condition. The main driver for this is that not all launchpads have submitted their data, nor have finished collecting from their userbase. As you can understand, the data collection for hundreds of thousands of users across 35 launchpads is very difficult!

Q9: I learnt that two mature SolChicks can be bred to produce a SolEgg. Concerning this breeding feature, can SolChicks breed as many times as possible in the game? In addition, what are the rules as well as cost guiding the use of the breeding feature?

https://twitter.com/Teejay_jah/status/1469310357676216330?s=20

ANS: HI, thanks for this. There's a breeding cap of 3x per solchick, and each breed gives you a 7-day cooldown. More details at https://www.solchicks.io/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/SolChicks_GameMechanics.pdf

Q10: A certain source said "SolChicks will be a Dump Fest".... Dump quick once it launches...

This is so bad and I will be holding my bag till the end of days. I hope I won't regret this ? How can we prove doubters wrong and show that Solchick is meat to be HODL ?

Solchicks launching on over 25 launchpads, Isn't it crazy ?

https://twitter.com/talk2fatty01/status/1469323249527914497?s=20

ANS: We have market makers in both CEX and DEX. They will help regulate the prices, don't worry.

Q11: I read from your white paper that players can either use their selected SolChick NFT as their character avatar or pay 1 Sol to create a non-NFT version of a SolChick. In this case, what's the difference between the SolChick NFT and the non-NFT version? Can they both be used equally to earn during the gameplay?

https://twitter.com/kerzy_f/status/1469301633414803464?s=21

ANS: For now, the non-NFT version will have limitations like it won't be able to breed. It can still earn, but likely cannot breed.
