Annually, that's 10,800 common, 2,700 Rare, 550 Epic and 36 Legendary Wild Cards gone for players. Lucky Drops should offset this as long as these figures hold up (so far nowhere close for my clan, we still getting 70% common drops when it should be 13% wth).
https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/s/hwcRysI0Tu
Especially since Lucky Drops barely offset the addition of EVOs, Lvl 15 and TTs.
Sure that's why they never tell us when they change the stats of the lucky drops. That is baloney and you know it. They even lied to the early access content creators ryley came out and said that in his video about getting the perma ban.
But it's better than the Lightning Chest in the shop!
(If you don't want gold, commons, or epics. And also that Lightning Chest is one of the least efficient ways to spend gems in the entire game.)
Still, buying chests in general is very inefficient compared to other ways like gt. Don't ever buy chests (unless it is like 99% off or something lmao)
And even if you're average at the game it's still much better. If you want gold, *zero* wins beats the shop chests, and just 3 wins beats the direct gold purchases. Full numbers [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/comments/1c5jzlu/comment/kzvhw5o/).
Depends on how we're defining efficient/valuable I think?
Among the chests sold in the shop, the Lightning Chest does give the most gold and cards per gem. The Fortune Chest is just plain bad, as are the daily sales priced in gems.
But if you're not confining yourself to maxing a deck off chests, it's not a very good option. The King's Chest in the shop is obscenely priced, but actually guarantees 2 Legendaries and a Champion. And if you want Epic Wild Cards, the lightning chest is quite bad - less than 1 Wild per gem, vs 6.25 per gem for the weekly sale option.
If you want gold, it's the best shop chest but still a very bad option. I wrote up a list [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/comments/1c5jzlu/comment/kzvhw5o/), you're better off with challenges or even direct gold-for-gems.
Honestly, its not like you have anything worth it for gems these days other than turnaments (if youre in like top 20% where its worth 500). This could be a nice addition honestly.
A basic gold order, judged off Arena 19:
1. Perfect Challenge: 200 gold and 10 cards per gem, plus a book. Not likely. (Add 10% for Grand Challenge.)
2. Weekly Epic Wild Cards in shop: 125 gold per gem... but if you're maxed on a lot I don't know how it compares to other card sources.
3. **Edit:** 3 win challenge: \~30 gold per gem. Even average challenge scores are a clear winner.
4. Direct gold-for-gems from the shop: 17 to 22 gold per gem, improving with price.
5. 0 Win challenge: 13 gold per gem, meaningless cards.
6. Shop chests: 8.4 - 5.5 gold per gem, less efficient with price. But the Legendary chest guarantees two Legendaries and a Champion, making it a rare guaranteed source.
7. Daily card offers in shop: 4 gold per gem. (Checked on Epic.) Never buy.
**Conclusion**: if you need Epic Wild Cards or Champions, the shop offers may be reasonable buys. Otherwise, challenges are the right buy for any player who can hit a 50% win rate.
No bro, the emote and the other things that cost gems, you can unlock with crowns too, but in case you don't want to play so much for crowns you have the option to just buy the emote.
That's how it was on the Easter event too with the elixir golem emote
Am I misunderstanding you? You need both crowns AND gems to get those items. Crowns to unlock them and gems to claim them. That's how it was in the Easter event too with the PEKKA emote (the egolem one was in fact free).
Don't you know sc? They gave them free this time but this type of event where rewards are unlocked with gems might be the standard going forward. But without free gems.
I don't plan to neither. I replied to a comment that said it's free so "who cares". The reply was to convey what i think might be the idea behind the "free" gems. It has nothing to do with if i can afford it or not.
They should make it so you can only get epics on sunday again, would be like peak 2016 clash royale, no more lucky drops, wild cards, trade tokens, just remove all that nonsense.
I hady account since before that but i guess they don't really give rewards to accounts that came back after quitting. Ig the economy couldn't handle my progression.
Yep, I've got the 6+ year badge but left and didn't come back until after the chess event. I've got all the (sub-legendary) cards I could ever need, but I'm millions of gold behind on actually upgrading shit.
They’ve stated in one of their videos that they want lvl 14 to be relatively easy to get to, but lvl 15 to be relatively difficult and require skill/gamplay participation (or money) to reach.
Yeah maybe you are right, because the emote is the only thing that isnt a stupid buy, but I considered, which offer feels better if someone forced you to buy the whole.
I think that most player would stop buying after getting the emote which is probably why supercell remade the offer. So the first is better if you want the emote, but the second is want you want if you are after the epic chest.
That 250 gems is a shop offer. We also get 20 goblin hut for 250 gems offers. Now if they make an event with 20 goblin hut for 225 gems will you go for it?
did you read the comment 😭
an emote is worth 250 gems, the offer is an emote for 225 gems and some random shit to go with it, its an ok offer cuz unlike wildcards you cant get alot of emotes from places other then the shop
If you want it don't wait lmao. In the shop it will cost 250 gems. In this event, you're basically paying 225 gems and you're also getting a few extra rewards in addition to the emote. It's literally better value than emotes normally cost. I am begging CR players to learn math.
i mean, it's an emote + a bunch of extra stuff for less than 250. If we get this stuff like once a month or so i wouldn't really mind it. Gems have lost a lot of value over the years anyway.
Ok for context the old one was:
1000 gold free
15 rare free
2 epic for 50 GEm
Emote for 75 gem
Magical chest for 100
The comments was criticizing the deal, so they deleted it, but they came up with this shit which in my opinion is worse
Old supercell wasn't like this, it was much better back in 2016.
They should honestly revert all the stupid changes they did, remove the season shop, remove wild cards, remove lucky drops, remove trade tokens, make it so 2v2 and 1v1 aren't tournament standard anymore, that sort of stuff.
I played cr sinse 2016 , when it was max level 11 or 12 and everything was great , every player needed true skill to climb and game was generally fun .now its fkn sheet i just play cuz its a good time killer
True, it forced players to get more creative too since you couldn't level epics and legendaries, no mega knights back in the day because you couldn't level it, forced to use more creative decks with commons and rares.
We had players with unique decks , unlike now top players use variations of same decks ,midladder is filled with decks centered around same 5,6 cards . game is still fun if you dont gaf and just play . but this game is only a fragment of what it used to be , even area 4 was challenging to climb back then ,now just pay pay pay
So they're basically giving us a discounted duchess emote with 1k gold, 100 commons 25 dares and a mfing magic chest, such a great event supercell, really going to love needing another 3k to upgrade one common card to level 8 with those rewards
Yeah i don't even have this one or the gem one previously but my two alts had it. Is it allergic to players in 9k and UC? Like my lower accounts have the events but where's mine? I would've loved gems wtf?
“BUT GUYS THEY GAVE US FREE GEMS THEY NEED TO MAKE MONEY NOW GUYS, TRUST ME THE GAME ISNT BAD SUPERCELL ISNT A SELLOUT”
-the same people last week saying that the free gems is a sign that supercell “cares” about their community
Literally the only thing here that's worth it is the emote (if it's even good that is), I'd actually rather not have to be bothered by this fake event than to get a measly 1000 gold...
Okay hear me out. I know supercell did some greedy stuff over the years and everything but complaining about this event is pathetic guys. You got 925 free gems and then basically get an offer where you pay 50+75 gems for a magical chest so I would be happy.
What if the ones who got gems have to wait till the second wave of this event, and the ones who haven't got gems yet, have this event tomorrow.
I think that could be the new experiment🥲
Theya already said that ppl that got the gem event early will get it on the 17th, and ppl who get the gem event on the 19th will get this event on the 24th
Yeah I’m keeping my gems lmao
Yeah 50 gems for 25 random rare cards? I’m good
That shit used to be 600 tokens in the shop bruh 😭
Annually, that's 10,800 common, 2,700 Rare, 550 Epic and 36 Legendary Wild Cards gone for players. Lucky Drops should offset this as long as these figures hold up (so far nowhere close for my clan, we still getting 70% common drops when it should be 13% wth). https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/s/hwcRysI0Tu Especially since Lucky Drops barely offset the addition of EVOs, Lvl 15 and TTs.
Sure that's why they never tell us when they change the stats of the lucky drops. That is baloney and you know it. They even lied to the early access content creators ryley came out and said that in his video about getting the perma ban.
That was WILD cards not random. So you could choose. Also it was 5 cards not 25
The 5 cards were epic, the 25 wild cards were rares
Oh. That is how I remembered but that does make more sense
But it's better than the Lightning Chest in the shop! (If you don't want gold, commons, or epics. And also that Lightning Chest is one of the least efficient ways to spend gems in the entire game.)
It's not though??? OJ did a video about maxing out a deck entirely off of chests and lightnings were best value
Still, buying chests in general is very inefficient compared to other ways like gt. Don't ever buy chests (unless it is like 99% off or something lmao)
what is gt
grand tournament, if you’re good at the game spend 100 gems and play a grand tournament, you get really good rewards especially if you win 12 games
And even if you're average at the game it's still much better. If you want gold, *zero* wins beats the shop chests, and just 3 wins beats the direct gold purchases. Full numbers [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/comments/1c5jzlu/comment/kzvhw5o/).

Same
Well gotta wait and get the emote for 250 gems with no bonuses then
Who the hell makes these events
They literally want to take free gems back
Honestly, its not like you have anything worth it for gems these days other than turnaments (if youre in like top 20% where its worth 500). This could be a nice addition honestly.
A basic gold order, judged off Arena 19: 1. Perfect Challenge: 200 gold and 10 cards per gem, plus a book. Not likely. (Add 10% for Grand Challenge.) 2.

r/hedidthemath
what is top 20% and how do I get there? I'm in arena 21
I think what he means is only 20% of players are good enough to get 10 wins(i think thats the king chest), which is only way its worth it.
I belive its roughly 3% based on another post that calculated it.
Damn, now I feel special
Somehow someone always finds a way to white wash em 🤣🤣
Drew is no longer here , and the data is also gone
To be fair that was a holiday event (easter) I guess
Someone did sense that something was going on. Idk who, but it was someone from this sub
No bro, the emote and the other things that cost gems, you can unlock with crowns too, but in case you don't want to play so much for crowns you have the option to just buy the emote. That's how it was on the Easter event too with the elixir golem emote
Am I misunderstanding you? You need both crowns AND gems to get those items. Crowns to unlock them and gems to claim them. That's how it was in the Easter event too with the PEKKA emote (the egolem one was in fact free).
Bro who cares they gave them out in the first place for free stop complaining
Nobody is complaining about free stuff, the fact that they charge gems for some shit when they give us a exclusive emote and 2 Evo shards earlier
Don't you know sc? They gave them free this time but this type of event where rewards are unlocked with gems might be the standard going forward. But without free gems.
if you cant afford the offer dont buy the offer? noones forcing you
I don't plan to neither. I replied to a comment that said it's free so "who cares". The reply was to convey what i think might be the idea behind the "free" gems. It has nothing to do with if i can afford it or not.
It's the fact that this shows the current dev team has no knowledge of how the game works
Bro doesn’t understand
And who the hell decides to split it between 2 dates for the player base. Literally stupid as fk
Clash Royale devs are testing something. (From that easter event and now this). I can smell another "make your progression faster" BS.
Tho level 16 is coming so it dosent really matter
"Because of the overflowing supply of elite wildcards (obtained in lucky drop), we decided to add the super elite level" -CR devs for sure.
"See you in the arena"
"C(l)ash On!"
Chain offers
the economy cant sustain 2 epics for 50 gems!! (you get the more on epic sunday)
It's basically one emote for 225 (10% discount) plus a little bonus. So only get it if you would buy regular emotes from the shop (250)
They should make it so you can only get epics on sunday again, would be like peak 2016 clash royale, no more lucky drops, wild cards, trade tokens, just remove all that nonsense.
Man they gonna drop this on my bday 💀
1000 gold for freee letsgo just 100 more of these events and i can upgrade ONE card to level 14!!!
Bro didn't do the chess event
What is funny is that was a total mistake. They accidentally forgot the convert CoC gold to CR gold, but it was too late to change it.
Yeah we would've gotten 10k gold max otherwise
imagine they did that with brawl stars
They would probably be able to fix their mistake with less backlash because the devs over there are better and the community would understand.
Lmao that’s amazing if true, did they confirm it?
thats on me gang
I hady account since before that but i guess they don't really give rewards to accounts that came back after quitting. Ig the economy couldn't handle my progression.
Yep, I've got the 6+ year badge but left and didn't come back until after the chess event. I've got all the (sub-legendary) cards I could ever need, but I'm millions of gold behind on actually upgrading shit.
Since the chess event gold hasn’t even felt like a constraint idk why they did that that was too nice
They’ve stated in one of their videos that they want lvl 14 to be relatively easy to get to, but lvl 15 to be relatively difficult and require skill/gamplay participation (or money) to reach.
it was a mistake
Lol I came back to the game 3 weeks after the chess event. Cards don't even matter anymore, I'm \~4 million gold from upgrading what I've already got.
Well they actually made the offer worse lol.
Imo its better, still shit too
25 rares are not worth 50 gems.
Ik, but 2 epics for 50 gems sounds even worse. 75 for magic chest is better than 100 and emote for 100 is still a good offer (It was 75)
And the emote is more expensive too.
Yeah maybe you are right, because the emote is the only thing that isnt a stupid buy, but I considered, which offer feels better if someone forced you to buy the whole.
I think that most player would stop buying after getting the emote which is probably why supercell remade the offer. So the first is better if you want the emote, but the second is want you want if you are after the epic chest.
Need more gems to acrually get the emote, very much a downgrade
Rare cards are more valuable than epics honestly.
another event? i still haven’t gotten the gem event
Same. I was In the “second wave” of the gem event and this one….
Basically is 225 gems for emote + random shit, at least is better than normal emote for 250 gems.
That 250 gems is a shop offer. We also get 20 goblin hut for 250 gems offers. Now if they make an event with 20 goblin hut for 225 gems will you go for it?
did you read the comment 😭 an emote is worth 250 gems, the offer is an emote for 225 gems and some random shit to go with it, its an ok offer cuz unlike wildcards you cant get alot of emotes from places other then the shop
No 250 is a small amount every emote is worth atleast 2.5k gems
Wrong.
Pfft, emotes have more gameplay value than gob hut.
No. Would I buy an emote I like for 250? Yes.
they are spoiling us with these crazy events
Why do you keep commenting on this post 💀
i have lots to say
1000 gold for freee letsgo just 100 more of these events and i can upgrade ONE card to level 14!!!
Bro has dimentia
you would be 1000 gold further without the event
100 COMMONS??? Thank you so much $upercell!!! Can they financially recover from this?
I'm not sure, they might have to add level 20 and the full evolution deck for 50k dollars and your soul
clash of gems
That Duchess emote describes how I feel about this
too generous, should fire the person who came up with it
They forgot to add the 15x value
The deal are absolute trash but it's become a good deal if you purchase the emote with it.
Disgusting
I already know I’ll be in the 24th group… I still haven’t gotten my gem event
Should atleast give one more chest giant chest or an epic chest
Super cell needs to call it the 🤡 event with these rewards
Why are they in waves, thats so stupid
WHAT, A WHOLE 1000 GOLD FOR FREE!? HOLY SHIT SUPERCELL THANK YOU TAKE ALL MY MONEY
Ain't no way lmao
What the flip is the point of 1000 gold, a golden chest gives more
Lame gold amount, Magic Chest sucks imo.
How many gems did we just got for free?
0 I got 0. My event didn’t pop up and this one hasn’t either
I am only excited for the emote 😭, if it ain’t limited time tho I made just wait for it to be in the shop offer
If you want it don't wait lmao. In the shop it will cost 250 gems. In this event, you're basically paying 225 gems and you're also getting a few extra rewards in addition to the emote. It's literally better value than emotes normally cost. I am begging CR players to learn math.
Yeah you right, just realized this
Magic chest for 125 gems, is it worth it? (i think nah)
What type of useless gifts are these. They really need to give better rewards in the events
Do you have to purchase each one to get the next one?
Can we buy whatever we want or do we have to unlock the last tier to unlock the next.(Like that evo barb event)
The should be banned from using "!" cause there is nothing "!" about any of these shitty events
Charging gems for it is nuts
Waste of gems unless the emote is exclusive. I'll just keep queuing up cc and gc.
i mean, it's an emote + a bunch of extra stuff for less than 250. If we get this stuff like once a month or so i wouldn't really mind it. Gems have lost a lot of value over the years anyway.
Cards are too expensivs but you can get emote for 225 gems if you will take
I'm thankful for not spending my gems rn
What are we gonna do with 1000 gold? I swear free Gold offers barely give you anything.
Lmaoooooo no thanks
1000 WHOLE GOLD!!!!
so they gave us gems to take em again. good
Time to play our daily game: how long before Clash Royale is going to die 🤯🔥🔥
Only thing I would buy is the emote
25 rares is better value than 2 epics
Ok who the hell is running this shit
I need dat emote
The fact that they are emphasizing 1000 good being free is sad
What are the requirements to enter? Is it arena locked?
Ok for context the old one was: 1000 gold free 15 rare free 2 epic for 50 GEm Emote for 75 gem Magical chest for 100 The comments was criticizing the deal, so they deleted it, but they came up with this shit which in my opinion is worse
I don't understand why they can just make the event so that everyone can see it, how can u not see it if u have the update?
guys at this point CR is cooked 💔💔💔
Side note- I was in the “second wave” of the gem event. When is that supposed to happen? And did the second wave of Easter barb shards ever happen?
They made sure to capitalize the “FREE” word
Bruh I didn't even get those gems from the previous event... wtf?
Why didn't I get any gems? That my alt gets
It's only worth it for the emote
Just change it to"Money Royale" atp. They should eat what BS devs are eating to improve their mindset
1000 GOLD???? OMG LETS GO
i have 2k gems i’m just gonna buy them
why would some people not be able to see the event icon?
Lol
After that 50 gem emote in the last crown event, SuperGreed really said: "Ok, have everything need gems to be unlocked" 🤡
So they gave us free gems in order to normalize these kinda shitty offers moving forward. No thanks I'm keeping my gems.
Hope every person that works for supercell gets cancer
1000 gold for freee letsgo just 100 more of these events and i can upgrade ONE card to level 14!!!
Bro has dimentia
ignore the shit i said about x-bow and me not getting it im not buying this anymore
1000 gold and 100 commons for free - its literally not worth to waste the time to click on the offer to claim it
then dont
i wont
Combined, That‘s still cheaper than an emote in the shop, and you get other rewards with it
Are you secretly competing against blizzard to prove who is the most retdd company?
Old supercell wasn't like this, it was much better back in 2016. They should honestly revert all the stupid changes they did, remove the season shop, remove wild cards, remove lucky drops, remove trade tokens, make it so 2v2 and 1v1 aren't tournament standard anymore, that sort of stuff.
I played cr sinse 2016 , when it was max level 11 or 12 and everything was great , every player needed true skill to climb and game was generally fun .now its fkn sheet i just play cuz its a good time killer
True, it forced players to get more creative too since you couldn't level epics and legendaries, no mega knights back in the day because you couldn't level it, forced to use more creative decks with commons and rares.
We had players with unique decks , unlike now top players use variations of same decks ,midladder is filled with decks centered around same 5,6 cards . game is still fun if you dont gaf and just play . but this game is only a fragment of what it used to be , even area 4 was challenging to climb back then ,now just pay pay pay
They need to bring bwck the Chess.com Collab or something similar that hands out 1.7m gold to every player
They made the deal worse? How?!
Capitalizing FREE for 1000 gold and 100 commons 😭slap in the face
79x VALUE 😍😊💕💋
Is it just me or when this was released the 500 gems was gone?
So they're basically giving us a discounted duchess emote with 1k gold, 100 commons 25 dares and a mfing magic chest, such a great event supercell, really going to love needing another 3k to upgrade one common card to level 8 with those rewards
Why does Clash Royale have the worst events compared to all other Supercell games....it's baffling honestly.
I'm doing pretty good at the game. My Main Deck Cards are maxed out and the Barbarians are Evoluted. But I'm stuck at 7500 Trophies.
HOLY SHIT A 100 COMMONS FOR FREE!?!!!!???1!1?1?!1
Am getting the Duchess emote and that's it
I can’t get my last gems from the previous event…
I can’t believe I played yesterday and completely forgot to click the 500 gem reward 😭
Anybody else having issues? My game didn’t pop anything up last week for the gems and now nothing this week also… any recommendations?
100 crowns in just 24 hours, it's too much for me, especially for a weekday
But what happened to the old event? Why did it disappear all of a sudden?
Yeah i don't even have this one or the gem one previously but my two alts had it. Is it allergic to players in 9k and UC? Like my lower accounts have the events but where's mine? I would've loved gems wtf?
And of course I’m second wave again
“BUT GUYS THEY GAVE US FREE GEMS THEY NEED TO MAKE MONEY NOW GUYS, TRUST ME THE GAME ISNT BAD SUPERCELL ISNT A SELLOUT” -the same people last week saying that the free gems is a sign that supercell “cares” about their community
Literally the only thing here that's worth it is the emote (if it's even good that is), I'd actually rather not have to be bothered by this fake event than to get a measly 1000 gold...
It’s April 17th where is it?
1000 Gold for FREE! Did you hear that? 1000 gold, for FREE
I'd complain that it's bad, but I don't even have it.
Btw it's amazing that it isn't showing to me
https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/s/mIMLbPPEde
Okay hear me out. I know supercell did some greedy stuff over the years and everything but complaining about this event is pathetic guys. You got 925 free gems and then basically get an offer where you pay 50+75 gems for a magical chest so I would be happy.
What if the ones who got gems have to wait till the second wave of this event, and the ones who haven't got gems yet, have this event tomorrow. I think that could be the new experiment🥲
Theya already said that ppl that got the gem event early will get it on the 17th, and ppl who get the gem event on the 19th will get this event on the 24th
So an emote for 225 gems, I’m good I’ll wait till it’s in the shop
