Neo Tokyo’s Secret Investment That Could 100x In 2022

Hey guys, some new alpha was just leaked from Neo Tokyo.

By none other than its chief citizen — Elliotrades (crypto expert with over 583K+ youtube subscribers & founder of Super Farm).

In a recent video, he claims this new game is:

“The hottest crypto game to watch in 2022.”

And he’s not kidding.

See, when I joined this game’s discord, I found so many Neo Tokyo Citizens in there, I reckoned I was inside their guarded citadel.

From what I counted, one was an admin.

Two were mods.

And the other eight were in the main chat, saying how this game could potentially flip Axie.

Now that’s a pretty big claim, but after researching about the project myself, I started believing it too.

But enough of me rambling.

Let me give you the game’s name.

It’s called “Heroes of Mavia.”

Heroes of Mavia is the first “Triple-A Blockchain Base Builder Game” inspired by Clash of Clans.

Heroes of Mavia

Remember that game from 2012?

Well, a decade later and folks are still playing it every day. Two million, to be exact.

Now, imagine Clash of Clans + $?

And I think you start to get the picture.

Troves of gamers will swarm over to Heroes of Mavia.

In fact, a current Clash of Clash player in the discord said “I can’t wait till Heroes of Mavia comes out, I’m going to rush on over!”

And I predict many will follow suit.

But aside from this inevitable phenomenon that will happen, here are 4 more reasons why I’m excited about this project:

1: World-Class Team

Heroes of Mavia is being created by Skrice Studios, a team of over 40 artists who’ve designed Triple-A games like Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate, and Final Fantasy XV.

2: An In-Game Token that doesn’t drop below $1 (phew!)

If you’ve been following Axie and Thetan Arena, then you’ve seen how their in-game tokens plummeted.

Axie’s SLP dropped from 28 cents to 1 cent and Thetan’s THC dropped from 98 cents to 7 cents.

Making it difficult for players to profit from their Axie and Legendary Hero investment.

Thankfully, the team at Heroes of Mavia is aware of this problem and believes they can stabilize the RUBY token around $1.

To do this, they’re using a “tokenomic simulation” that will help them price their in-game items and rewards, and keep their economy stable.

Have a look:

It’s brilliant, right? (Though to be frank, I don’t understand much of it *scratches head)

Now there’s no guarantee they’ve solved this problem, only time will tell.

But one thing that keeps my hopes high is the…

3: Strong Incentives for Players to Spend RUBY inside the game

The team does a great job at rewarding actions they want and discouraging actions they don’t.

Let me demonstrate:

Imagine you have a rare tropical base and a super troop called “Heroes” to defend it.

You don’t see your heroes here…well because they’re napping. Those lazy bastards!

Then one morning…

You wake up only to find your base was destroyed and your RUBY stolen! (Yes, in the game if a player destroys about 50% of your base, they get your RUBY.)

By a chap named “Ricky The ‘I destroy your base and steal your RUBY when you fall asleep’ Destroyer.”

Ouch!

So what are you going to do?

Let Ricky have it his way or use your RUBY to upgrade your base and heroes and take back what’s yours?

Again, a hardcore gamer will probably choose the latter but let’s say you decided to cash in your RUBY.

Well, you’re strongly discouraged to do so because when you withdraw your RUBY to your Wallet, there’s a 15% fee.

However, if you use your RUBY to upgrade your NFT’s (base, heroes, etc.), then sell it on the marketplace for MAVIA (their governance token), you pay zero fees. From there, you can send your MAVIA to an exchange and sell it.

So you see, the team has created strong incentives and disincentives for specific actions. Ultimately, this should more or less, balance the buying and selling pressure in the ecosystem, and help stabilize RUBY’s price.

Here’s a diagram illustrating this.

Finally, the last thing I like about Heroes of Mavia is their:

4: World-Class Partners

Animoca Brands is a giant in the space. Frankly, they don’t need much of an introduction.

As for the others, well you’ve probably already recognized Yield Guild Games, Binance Labs, and Delphi Digital.

My take is: If they’re backing a game, then there’s probably something special about it. At the very least, it’s worth looking into.

Now, let’s briefly go over the tokenomics for their MAVIA token.

Here’s how it was allocated:

Pretty straightforward right?

Now, as for their vesting period:

The private sale purchasers have a 4 year, quarter vesting schedule and the team has a 6 year quarterly vesting schedule.

So these folks are in it for the long term. Something I love to see from a team.

Anyway, in summary:

Heroes of Mavia checks off many boxes.

  • Fun, proven game loop
  • Strong use cases for in-game token
  • World-class backers
  • Triple-A gaming studio
  • Aligned with p2e gaming trend
  • etc.

But…

The mystery still remains: Will Heroes of Mavia be the game to finally flip Axie?

And if they do, will I want to get a slice of the pie?

I sure do.

However, remember this is not financial advice and in the end, you must do your own research.

A good way to start is by joining their discord.

As well as checking out their other profiles:

Anyway, I hope you had a pleasure reading this and that it was as helpful to you as it was for me.

Farewell, friend or should I say fellow “Mavian.” 😉

See you on the inside.
