I have been an @Azuki holder from mint day and supported the project publicly through thick and thin, high and lows.
What I always appreciated was the energy and the conviction that the team cared about holders and that collecting was at the heart of the project, given the strong IP potential and the great depth of the collection thanks to the amazing talent of @steamboy33
Today, it pains me to say that the care for holders has evaporated and leadership has become tone deaf.
The recurring reason given is priority is to TCG. But very basic stuff like maintaining a functioning sales bot on X is lacking which is shocking for such a collection.
This is at a time where other collections led by BAYC have established OTC grail desks and are putting strong emphasis on collecting.
This is also at a junction where the digital art space and pfp collections are coming together. But Azuki doesn’t seem to have any interest whatsoever in partaking in this.
I am writing this on the same day I purchased one of the most iconic spirits (featuring in this post).
I feel that calling this out publicly is the only way to get heard.
Cheers

Gas was amazing. It was cheap and fast. The team killed it on the gas side of things. The actual mint was smooth.
All the issues were related to the short 10 minute time window and probably too many people slamming the server. A slightly longer mint window would have spread this out.

The mint was not smooth. I give @Azuki a lot of credit for what they have built, but this mint process was not smooth and error prone.
10 minutes was way too short and resulted in many in the garden MISSING the mint. Which is brutal.
It should have been 30 minutes to 1 hour for the Phase 1. I myself had errors and couldn't see the mint button. I only managed with 3 minutes to go.
I hope Azuki takes this feedback to heart.
In terms of the mint, I was fortunate.
I minted 177 Elementals in Phase 1, and was able to get 74 in Phase 2 with a very very high gas bid, which was a huge win. Total MINTED was 251 Elementals.
RNG was good, especially with Tier 4.
-4 Tier 4s
-6 Tier 3s
-58 Tier 2s
-183 Tier 1s
Overall, I am very happy with my result, but it was a near catastrophe and I know multiple @spiritdao members who were not able to mint or missed part of their mint because of the issues. There are no doubt many garden members who had issues.
Now with this out of the way, can't wait for the reveals and the art. Let's see what this collection is all about!
