As typical in all Supercell games they focus on building new content to make money but dont balance the content they have created. Ive kept statistics and 90% of the time, I can never beat any player who has a legendary card while I have none. If you want to spend money, you can get legendary. Otherwise, chances are very slim.
Ive even made it to level 8 in this game and was excited for tournaments and challenges. Bluntly, dont bother. I have yet to win any challenge or even come close in any tournament because everyone is level 8 with legendaries or level 9. The players at level 9 are extremely further ahead who have potentially 2-6 legendary cards. Tournaments are a waste of gems at this point.
Its unbelievable to think a billion dollar company like Supercell couldnt figure out to create tournaments by level or better matching based on player cards so that you have at least a chance to win something decent in a challenge or tournament. I got 2 common cards. Thanks for nothing.
The other huge downside to this game is no PvE content. Every aspect of the game is fighting someone else. After losing numerous matches it gets tiresome and demotivating. Come on Supercell, give players ways to upgrade cards without having to fight someone or spend real money. Revolutionary idea, I know.
As usual from Supercell, focusing on ways to make more billions rather than creating an evenly balanced games players at all levels can enjoy. I would rather lose every single match in this game rather than give Supercell a dime of my money.
