    From Kyle's message to me:

    Meltdown Points: 1585
    Ranking: 33 (Tier 2)
    Jackpot Earnings: 14361

    I started off with 10,500 gold and played it down to ~0 gold, so did end up making a profit of almost 4000 so it's definitely possible to end up ahead. I'd estimate I played about 60-70 games and won 3 out of every 4. But we should also realize that profits won't be as good as they were this time around, since we got double gold/XP this week from the special event.

    Here are the results of the recent Meltdown challenge!

    Meltdown Points: 1795
    Meltdown Ranking: 27 (Tier 2)
    Jackpot Earnings: 16264

    Good luck in the next challenge

    I played my first meltdown game on Tuesday so not bad for return... I just loved the format. Helps me consider new ways of playing and opens up some interesting combos!

    My only recommendations going forward would be to remove the following cards;

    Teeth
    Lone wolf
    Eternal renewal

    Congrats top 20

    I got 32,257 gold for 8th (2670 rating), would be nice to see a reward for the highest win percentages as well (maybe with a minimum number of games to qualify) so you don't have to play like mad to get a chance of profit.
