I don’t think it decreases any value for elites - those who already receives a drink will continue to receive one and those who didn’t now will receive one.

If MCE prices went up then this decreases the value for those who pays for MCE and doesn’t consume alcohol.

What I wonder is this benefit only valid on the first round and if someone wants a second they will have to pay? Sorry a little out of the loop on this new benefit.
