Limited Token Claims Spark Player Frustration in Hamster Kombat Airdrop

In a recent tweet, game developers revealed that only 88.75% of the allocated tokens could be claimed now while the rest 11.25% would get vested for 10 continuous months, the full release of which will come around July 2025. It has annoyed the players who experienced this unprecedented delay to claim tokens.

The Hamster Kombat airdrop is giving away a total of 60 billion HMSTR tokens, coming from a total supply of 100 billion. And another 15 billion are being reserved for Season 2 of Hamster Kombat, supposed to start after an “Interlude Season” lasting several weeks.

Hamster Kombat has already created a snapshot for Season 1, which will be used as a source of token distribution at TGE on September 26. This will be the first time that the value of HMSTR will be known because it goes into trading on The Open Network (TON).

Controversial Hamster Kombat Airdrop Criteria Raises Concerns Among Gamers

The other big point of contention has been a bone of contention: the anti-cheating measures of the game. Of the 300 million players on Telegram, only 129 million players passed the threshold to qualify for the Hamster Kombat airdrop.

Originally, the game had 131 million users, but 2.3 million accounts were regarded as cheating and thus got disqualified. Some of those banned users have since been given an “Achievement Unlocked: Cheating is Bad,” a move designed to remind people to just be nice and play fair.

In comparison to more recent airdrops, like Catizen’s for example, players of Hamster Kombat felt that the entire weight in its allocation was against friend referrals and earning of keys-additions that came later into the game.
