@Dorfl the Clay @Lovec Krys : Yes... I agree... and may I add : Inno's decision to start awarding 'extra' Event Currency (additional to the guaranteed total sum earned by diligent play) by adding, via the Lucky Draws, yet another layer of RNG to the already-RNG-controlled 'three chests' system will make even the most mathematically sound pre-Event and/or ongoing strategies much more difficult to compile
and less reliable in their predictions, and will also [obviously] emphasise and encourage the most obvious alternative option of simply buying extra Currency.
I myself have no interest in the Leagues as they stand, since I'm not competitive, I don't want any of the avatars I've yet seen, and I don't usually need any of the more 'tangible' rewards in most cases (NB: gaining +1 Witch Hut base plus some extra Artifacts is the sole exception to this) - but I'd imagine that this change won't be very popular with quite a lot of the players who don't habitually pay to play, and instead put in a lot of effort -
and hope for RNG assistance - in order to place well in the Leagues. Of course, those players who
are happy to pay for Events will probably very much approve... but as they say : each to his own...!
And while I'm not surprised by this move, I do find it disappointing - especially because this Event, of all Event formats, is my new favourite type - and I am very happy, also, to see the return of less-mobile-friendly and more 'traditional' PC-style graphics, even including the re-use of some of the game's Chapter-level Dwarven characters - if my very limited experience of the Event (my Ch.III City could get almost nowhere) is any guide.
So - Well done to the artists... I even like the Event splash screen - it's very charismatic and fun! - and that's not often the case.
As might (?) be apparent, I am at least *trying* to alter my typical habits, and to look on the bright side, this time...! Haha.
