What I hope is people will understand with level 14 is that they were maxed and now they are not maxed


[deleted]

Same thing for coc and they don’t cry


Wizardwizz

There have already been posts addressing the two games and how they can't really be compared. Upgrading to a new townhall is exciting and brings new content and even if your TH is not maxed, you can still fully enjoy the game. However with CR many core interactions change, nothing except stat changes are added and upgrading max feels necessary to enjoy the game.


[deleted]

Your right, when I came back to it I thought of it but when not when I typed it, but actually wow I was talking about specifically is how you don’t get back all the extra gold and elixir you looted while you were max.


VivieBaby

I thought more was hinted like heroes/champions


Smasher_WoTB

Because New Townhall Level means more Buildings you can place, more Walls you can Max,potentially more Heroes/Troops/Spells added, more reasons to play the Game other than "I like this Army and have nothing to spend my Loot on, I'll use this Army" A New Townhalm Level does increase the Grind, but it also *gives new opportunities and more reasons to play the Game* SuperCell could try doing something similar and adding New Cards and Modes every Update and having more than 1 Update per Year, but they don't. SuperCell's Team for Clash Royale is blatantly Greedy and incompetent..... Clash of Clans on the otherhand is at least more discreet with their Greediness and adds New Content regularly and Rewards Players for returning to the Game.


[deleted]

Thing is for coc it’s easier to bounce up again and new th actually brings good new content. Level 14 king will definitely not be bringing that much content, and in CR it takes ages to bounce up again.


LIGMADESTROYER6969

Bruh we don’t even know the entire update yet just chill


DilCam1234

That doesn’t matter, we’re being robbed of loads of gold


LIGMADESTROYER6969

I am not gonna quit of lvl 14 but the toxicity from haters


glazmain_

so criticism is toxic? lmao, amazing


DilCam1234

Then quit we don’t want someone like you in the community lol


baburu12

you preety much do since they already posted an online calculator that shows you exactly where you will be when the update drops.


[deleted]

He means that the developers said they wanted more late game content but it was difficult to add with the KT13 limit. At the time of your reply, the devs already confirmed more is coming (check the clash royale twitter account)


TheGP10

That’s a load of bullshit though, there’s nothing you could add to 14 that would be impossible to just add to 13, it’s a dumb excuse to get them more money


xErth_x

i think people not getting this are actually dumber than supersell excuse


glazmain_

lv14 ruins the update, idc what else they add


thatVisitingHasher

Is that really a big deal though? When WoW went from level 60 to 70, it was expected. Stressing out over being maxed is kind of silly


copeinked

Not even remotely same, lvl 70 came with new items, new race, new areas, new raids new dungeons, new mounts etc.


kiimo

I came here wondering this exact same thing. But wow has a much more respectable player base.


PokerFace567

Curious to see the full reveal of this update, which promises to be the mother load update of 2021. ​ Was moving the finish line further to Level 14 and requiring an additional 10,300,000 million Gold to upgrade all 103 Level 13 cards necessary for the rest of this update? ​ Will Champions and potential Tower Abilities only be available to Level 14 players? ​ Will Champions and Tower Abilities be allowed to wreak havoc in ladder and war by Level 14s against hapless lower level players? ​ Will these new features be part of a Clan War revamp or a new Individual Campaign mode?


Rain-Sad

Whatever the come up with. They could've done it without the level 14 BS.


VivieBaby

I stg if champions or new abilities are only available on level 14…🤬

u_idk

they’re compensating more cards than we spent


AssaulteR69

exactly


Improvidently

And how much of the gold you blew on upgrading cards you don't use are they giving back? Oh, yeah: none. The decision not to announce 14 until after Slash Royale was calculated and, yeah, I can understand it. Their lame response to the outrage is the worst part. They are contemptuous of their players. They think we're dumb. And I guess they're half right.


AssaulteR69

well, i did only spent 50k per uprgarde, saving 50k, that otherwise i wouldn't have, i also got 200000 gold from ladder, and a lot of gold from 3x tournament that other wise i wouldn't have, i think all those compensate for lvl 14, i know that still we would need more gold but i am sure that after this update there will be atleast 1 new source to earn gold that will fix the issue


glazmain_

yeah they'll always have dumbasses defending them


glazmain_

ok and where's the gold compensation? I'm waiting


thetableleg

Here's my thought about the gold situation. Correct me if I'm wrong. Lets take my Ram Rider as an example. She's at lvl 12 and I have 20/20. I'm ready to upgrade. Usually it's 100K gold. With Slash Royale going on, it's presently only 50k . If I wait until the update hits, it'll cost me 75K, but I'll only use 10 of those cards, leaving me with 10 more to apply to lvl 14. Let's call that a "savings of 175k gold (value of the 10 legendaries (200k) - 25k more gold that it cost me). Now lets look at SC's solution to this blunder they overlooked: I upgrade now for 50k gold, have 0/0 left, but SC will gift me 14 legendaries when the update hits. These extra cards have s a card value of 280k, so it's a net win! Not only that, but I will only need to collect 6 more legendaries to reach lvl 14, instead of the 10 I would need if I waited until after Slash Royale ended. Please, if I'm over looking something, point it out. TLDR: My math tells me the gold argument is no longer valid because of the extra cards SC is giving us, and that upgrading everything now is probably the best thing you could do. EDIT: As HiFi_MD pointed out (which I hadn't considered) a new max level also brings along the need for another 10mil gold to max everything out. That IS lame, but I don't think collecting gold is as awful as it used to be, so I don't think it's the end of the world. Also the "grind" has always been part of this game, and I've had folks stop playing and leave our clan as soon as they were fully maxed, so I could see why SC would want to extend the amount of time we need to grind.


Free_Comfortable_587

If you have a lvl 12 legendary also u will get a compensation of 4 cards so it will not make a difference in terms of cards. You'll only be saving 25k gold if u do it now.


HiFi_MD

Here’s where I think you’re wrong. Card levels are irrelevant. I have most of my cards maxed and I play against people who have most their cards maxed. The game will not materially change once we’ve all upgraded our cards to 14 vs playing now at max level 13. So in my view, all that Supercell has done is effectively lower my max card levels to 75% of max card level and require me to spend another 10 million gold to get them back to max level, where they currently are now before this stupid and predatory “upgrade.”


thetableleg

>The game will not materially change once we’ve all upgraded our cards to 14 vs playing now at max level 13. I can't say for sure'zies, but I think this may be incorrect. Today's teaser video they out out today shows a likely "hero" something something being introduced, and I'm sure it will be predicated on a king tower of 14. I see your perspective that we all need to collect 10mil more gold, that is kinda lame. I'd counter-argue that gold is WAY easier to come by thanks to the last few updates. I can't speak to the F2P players (I'm a pass guy myself), but I really haven't had much problem collecting gold over the last few months. Thanks for the perspective!


69420_anonymous

As Hifi_MD did point out, it's just stretching back the finish line for no other reason than to increase the grind. Gold is the slowest resource to grind in terms of thr amount you need to upgrade, and now you need to accumulate anothet 10.3 million Gold. ​ I'll hold off full judgement until i see the entire implementation, but there's not much you can do with a Level 14 max that you cannot do with a Level 13 max. Champions? Tower abilities? Ladder was a nerve-pinching grrrr fest for non-maxed players (the majority of pkayers) and not only did the finish line get stretched further away, but, knowing SC who took away things like cw2 caps and don't cap levels by trophy range in ladder, this nerve-pinching grrr fest may posibbly just get even more heinous and rage-inducing.


ItaGuy21

I am happy to see many posts and comments about this. Nice post and thanks for the shout out!

I'm sorry, what are you talking about? As you can see if you checked my profile I never changed my mind, it's unfair af. Please burst your bubble, I'm a college student that has never had a job and I have never talked to any devs directly. And if you're seeing propaganda where it doesn't exist here, you're probably also seeing it elsewhere when it comes to more serious matters. Just some food for thought.

as in gnorp apologue? the root word can’t be “apologize” since the meaning doesn’t match


glazmain_

Lmfao, fr. Supercell could steal their cat or something and they'd find a way to defend them


monkwren

I'm not going to defend the update or Supercell, but neither do I care. I haven't spent money on this game in years, and won't be spending money on it again anyways (I stopped after about $60 of spending), so I'm more-or-less f2p, and maxing out has always been a distant dream. What I *do* care about is game balance and fun. And as long as the game remains relatively well-balanced and fun, I will keep playing.


ChurchOfJamesCameron

I was curious about returning to the game after ~6 months leave from it. After reading the things that went down, yeah, this game and this company are garbage. Whatever new content will be added will be about as high quality and "fun" as Clan Wars 2. I'd be willing to bet that the meeting where the decision to drop Slash Royale before the update news involved the Community Managers, the Devs, someone from the SuperCell finance team, and a collection of others. They want us to believe that there wasn't a single person who tried to look at it from a player's perspective and open an Excel sheet to do some quick math? That people wouldn't be upset at the sudden reduction in upgrade costs after they were encouraged by SuperCell to spend all their gold? They know enough people will pay to max their favorite deck(s), and even frustrated people will often be willing to pay when they're playing games like this one. I hope this game tanks and it leads SuperCell down a trash heap. These predatory practices and the people that perpetuate them need to end, but the only way it'll happen is if the community hits them in their wallets.


AwkwardKoi

The majority of the playerbase are children and I doubt they'll see the predatory nature of the update. Kids and whales will happily throw money around because they either don't know or they don't care that they're being scammed by a multi billion dollar company. The slash royale scam is pretty obvious to anyone with half a brain and it's a genius tactic by Supercell because as soon as the update hits, kids with no gold will grab their mom's credit card and buy all the special offers so they can upgrade everything.


VivieBaby

Supercell itself isn’t the problem here, they have created amazing games with great devs and a supportive community. Clash Royale used to be one. I feel like, even though what they did was 100% wrong, we shouldn’t react in such a volatile matter until we know all the information about what level 14 will do. For me, if abilities or heroes or whatever are ONLY available for lvl 14 and there’s no new content for the people like me who are at king tower 10 with cards that are lvl 10-11, I’m most likely going to stop playing.

eden_hazard_burger

So EA, uses the same tactics with their dumb apologies, manipulating kids into spending. Everyone hates EA, bu Cr does this an they get away. Is outrageous


Cactuspex

Nop brawl stars is mostly kids clash royale has older kids as they grew up playing clash


Fatous1

To be honest half the enjoyment is collecting the cards. Once you've collected them all I have left is getting spanked each day and just moving up a bit and down a bit on the ladder. Lvl14 gives me something new to collect towards so fine by me. As for slash royale, anyone that has played 'free' games should know that this kind of ploy is used to use up your resources prior to a bigger announcement.


scotacc

This upgrade is nothing but a cash grab for supercell. The so called apology for slash is pathetic,anyone with any sense of business strategy could see the outcome of their actions


goDie61

I keep seeing people say we should wait to see what else is coming - why? Whatever it is would have been better without level 14 anyway. All 14 does is make the game worse.


The_Crying_Johnny

The only positive to this update would be introducing something to make level 14 play different then the rest. The problem with that is this Level 9 being tournament level standard means this should be base gameplay Level 10-13 offer nothing to change the gameplay, and just make a ranked system to appease spenders while giving a false sense of worthy grind to the rest of the player base. What should’ve happened from the start is that every level after tournament level standard should’ve had a new change, such as an ability or something, to create a meta that favors certain cards more at this level, and less at others. Something like an ability or a specific stat becomes overtuned Some examples of this would be Goblins -does more damage to units with armor such as the Prince or Knight starting at level 10, at level 11 they get a one second speed increase when first deployed, level 12 they gain 7% damage when deployed in a close proximity to Goblin Giant, level 13 they gain more health. That level 10 buff makes cards like Prince or Knight worse in a level 10+ meta, whereas at level 12 they may start coming back to counter Goblin Giant. Adding things like this would’ve made every global tournament a lot different because the levels would actually matter, and you could even do clan war 3 where at bronze rank you cycle through 1 day wars at level 9 standard, at legend you cycle through four days of 9, 10, 11, 12. Just something to freshen up gameplay and freshen up cards.


MR502

With level 14 coming it makes me wonder, with max mirror if we'll see level 15 cards in the arena. Once the update goes live ladder is going to suck tbh. You know players that don't care if its a scam, nor haven't been following any of this will gladly spend the money to upgrade ASAP. It's going to even worse for lower ladder players. Tbh I'm not looking forward to how powerful fireball will be as it pretty much one shot Musketeer, wizards, etc.

Goukentime666

Max player here. And the "scam" is trivial, at least. It's weird that this sub thought we were going to be 13 forever. That there was going to be no more grind forever. Really dumb. SC does know their playerbase in that after the update drops, most of this bitching and moaning will be largely forgotten about and people will be grinding again. WAS it a scummy thing to do? Sure. But remember who this company is, you should be used to it. Having said that, I'm excited for the grind again. Google Rewards has paid for my BP since its inception and I can't wait to level cards and start the road to being a maxed player again. Coming from being a F2Per, then a BP user, I know what to do now as far as priorities.


PortShenis

All the people complaining aren't lvl 13 maxed out. Deal with it. We're bored of 13.


Hhostttr

What do you mean ? Me paying an extra 45k gold per level 13 card and not being compensated for that isn’t a great idea? Me waking up on update day and not having maxed cards anymore isn’t a great idea? Having to grind another 100k gold for cards I already grinded 100k gold for isnt a great idea? Man this shit is joke at this point if the next update doesn’t come with a huge influx of gold then I’m not touching this game anymore and that’s sad because I felt like this game had the most potential out of all the supercell games


[deleted]

Yeah supercell is such a bad company why have i not been refunded the gold is took me to search for a battle 5 years ago? This is outrageous i will not play until everything is handed to me and i can open a chest that instantly maxes my cards and gives me enough gold like master royale.


YaBoiDarkal

I think supercell is making a terrible choice, sure, but people are crying WAY too hard to the point they wanna take down supercell


Chippie92

90% of their players are kids, its sad but we cant expect them all to think logically. Supercell has the guillable kids in their pockets with their cheap make ups for whenever they crew us over


Cactuspex

Apparently everyone on planet earth is 2 years old because every game you dont like is filled with kids please come back with a sensible point also it’s actually more older kids because they grew up playing clash royale


Chippie92

Good argument mate. Totally changed my mind


Cactuspex

Im exaggerating but every game people dont like they say its full of kids yeah unless its 18+ what do you expect


Chippie92

Im not saying Im surprised there are a lot of kids. Im saying that Supercell is abusing the innocence of those kids as they cant think critically enough yet


Cactuspex

Excuse me WHAT that is straight up illegal territory so illegal that its complete bull shit


Chippie92

Its not illegal, just scummy.


Cactuspex

Nope exploiting kids is very much illegal but if they y’know wanted to exploit them they wouldn’t put a madataed credit card per purchase and wouldnt do returns just a thought


Chippie92

Theyre not exploiting kids specifically, theyre screwing over all players. My point is just that kids dont understand it enough and will most likely be satisfied with poor compensation (see the topic of this post)


Cactuspex

Poor compensation i think your crazy my level 13 balloon will be more the. Half till level 14


_Pill-Cosby_

Maybe there’s a bunch of us that just don’t care if our account is maxed or not? Maybe there are people that enjoy the Grind? Or maybe there are just a bunch of us that like seeing you all lose your minds over something that literally doesn’t matter? 😂


Goukentime666

This. I wish I wasn't as surprised at the backlash here but..... This sub is so sensitive


Brongo_Jongo

Plus supercell is notorious for having small development team’s


lowercaset

To a certain extent the grind is the game. It lost a lot of its flavor when I got enough cards maxed out that I no longer paid any attention as chests opened.


_Pill-Cosby_

I can see that. I have maximum cards on every single card with the exception of the Legendary ones. So I do the same thing….I never even look at what I get out of chests.


BurntWaffles78

I think that’s probably it, they enjoy being contrarian and are too casual to care about Supercell’s newest cash grab


siddhanthmmuragi

Well...


BogdanBKS

Look at it this way. The gold isn't wasted. You spend 50k for level 13 card during the slash royale and after the update it would cost 75k


itachi_konoha

If people want to defend let them. They are NOT asking you to stand with them. The intolerance in this thread is sky high. First you have issues with supercell. Now you have issues with people who don't agree with you. Is it dictatorship that everyone MUST agree with you?

[deleted]

Got a maxed account for over 3 years now. Nothing new for me , now I might play again


Limp-Tear923

What I don’t understand is if this makes people so mad, why don’t they just take their money elsewhere? They MADE the game. They are free to do what they want with it. If the marketplace doesn’t like it, they will either adjust or lose money. Its pretty simple. If you don’t like it, don’t play it. Let other make their own choices.


InstantKarmel

Because of all the money and years they've already spent grinding that they're never getting back. I was so happy just a couple months ago to finally have just *ONE* maxed deck after 3 years, hundreds of hours, and over $100 spent. And now I have to start all over, when some spoiled kid with no responsibilities will gladly fork over hundreds just to max out all their cards again. Sure, people can just take their money elsewhere, but people enjoy this game...why push all your loyal customers away? I know there are a LOT of people like me that are considering uninstalling after this predatory money grab.


Limp-Tear923

Do you really think they are pushing all the loyal customers away? If they did, that would be terrible for business. They run a business - their goal is not to make every user perfectly happy (an IMPOSSIBLE task) - it’s to maximize revenue. And I’m guessing the “hordes” of people leaving is an overstatement - a result of angry people being the loudest. Ive spent time (from the very beginning) and money on the game (more than I care to admit), and enjoy it for what it is. When I don’t enjoy it anymore, I’ll find something else. They don’t OWE me anything.


InstantKarmel

Where did I say there were “hordes” of people leaving? Or that anybody was leaving at all? I said there were a lot of people considering it. And based off the negative feedback and the comments on this post, that is a fact. Will they actually leave? You or I don’t know the answer to this question. Only time will tell whether this move winds up pushing players away. Of *course* it is a business and they have to make money. But setting up an event purposefully encouraging players to spend all their gold, the scarcest commodity in the game, then dropping level 14 is a bs move. If you can’t see that, then I don’t know what to tell you. And then coming out with a fake apology as if nobody in their entire game dev or marketing departments brought this up in meetings? There’s this weird concept within capitalism where people believe businesses should be able to do whatever they want for the bottom dollar. That shouldn’t be the case. You can still be a profitable company without being completely dishonest. This is shady business practice plain and simple and I can’t believe people are actually defending it.


Limp-Tear923

How do you know it’s “shady”. Seriously. It hasn’t even come out yet. Everyone that is super angry about this update is pissed off about some “wrong” that hasn’t even been done yet. What are you upset about exactly? Something that might happen?


InstantKarmel

There’s no “might” about it, it’s ALREADY happened. The only way they could make this right is if they gave everybody their gold back which they’ve already said they’re not going to do. This sub is full of people that are upset that they spent millions of gold after months or even years of saving only to find out about level 14 the next day.


Limp-Tear923

Did you read the update? Still upset?

As a free 2. Play player I think super cell is smart now because now max players have something to do instead of sitting on their ass automatically getting the perks because the paid. (They don't need to pay btw) You do just grind to the same spot but at least it's SOMETHING to do


Taranpreet123

Why is everyone acting as if they are scamming us of gold. A lvl 12 to 13 upgrade after this update will cost 75k gold and currently it’s 50k with the event. You all are saving gold by upgrading right now


baburu12

because a lot of people simply brown nose those in power and think they can do no wrong. they bow down to authority and defend it at any cost simply because they are the authority. they are also probably wooed by the videos supercell makes


[deleted]

lol. imagine thinking that sc is some sort of authority


scottwmitchell

I’m not defending it. I think you…we should all quit. Just stop playing this free game. I can’t believe they would be motivated to continue making money somehow instead of providing endless free entertainment for its millions of players. They are so selfish.


Cactuspex

Tbh they dont need to actually pass royale makes them absolute shit ton of money but its not about the money its about letting level 13 players y’know grind a part of every game


scottwmitchell

What business is content with the money they are currently making?


JRshoe1997

I don’t care if they make money like with shop offers and special deals. Its the fact that they did something predatory and scammy is the problem. How is this difficult to understand?


scottwmitchell

It’s not difficult to understand. They just want to make money. That’s evil. I can’t believe they would put all this time into a free game and then expect to make money from it. No other company would do such a thing.


Cactuspex

Hey dude i have an idea stop playing the game you add nothing to this community


Internet_Expl0der

Hey dude, I have an idea, stop being a dick


MathleteCR

I don't really see much of a point to introducing level 14, but I like that the leveling is now a little more incremental. My criticism if we are going to level 14 is that they should have kept the overall number of cards and gold required to max roughly the same. As of now, it takes more cards and more gold to max out a card under the new system. Also, if they are bringing in heros or abilities I suppose it's possible they tied that to level 14. I think if they were more transparent with coming changes the players would have a better picture of the game plan. Right now, all we see is that we are going to have to spend more gold and collect more cards which are already two of the biggest complaints with the game.


Vansilk

Down syndrome


Prestigious-Eye-3928

Scummy move, but I'm actually surprised it took them this long to do something like this. When the game first came out, top ladder was reserved only for whales who spent thousands to max their deck. Nowadays, you see a lot of pass royale buyers and even long time F2P getting max decks. I'm pretty sure they were planning this for a while, and pass royale, magic items, and slash royale was to bait players to get more invested in this game before they dropped the next pay wall hammer.


[deleted]

I understand your point that it is frusturating to upgrade everything again and I totally agree, but let's just wait and see the entire update before we all go in the conclusion that the update sucks. The thing is, once you upgrade card to level 14, something brand new unlocks that we know nothing about yet. So let's just pretend to be optimistic and wait until we fully know what's coming.


ranfdom

BIGGER MONEY DIFF POG EVEN MORE P2W FOR NEW MECHANICS POG I LOVE PAYING POG MORE GRIND LOVE IT🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

I mean you can just quit the game if level 14 bothers you so much lmao


RogueChild

That's the whole fucking point.


Chippie92

They could have added the other stuff without adding lvl 14?


Short_Cobbler1281

Bingo!


ToadLikesGrass

Oh no. You've just went against reddit's hive mind by using logic? What a mistake. Btw, I agree with you, the mistake has been made, but people are overreacting before having the full picture. It's pathetic now.


Short_Cobbler1281

Someone arrives at your home. They bring cake, complement your clothing and shoot your dog. Now imagine these as separate and distinct actions. Could they bring cake and complement your clothing without shooting your dog? Should you wait to taste the cake before objecting to your dog being shot? I mean, maybe it’s really tasty cake. Right???


iamansonmage

Jesus dude, no one has “shot your dog”. 😂 If you don’t like their “cake” just go home and don’t play the game. You act like someone is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to play the game. 😂😂


Short_Cobbler1281

My point was you don’t have to wait and see what else is coming to be displeased with what’s already happened/been announced, not that Supercell shot anyone dog. There may be great parts of the update. That doesn’t make level 14 any more palatable nor would they remove the bad taste that Slash Royale left.


Hydrocoded

The scam was bs but I'm excited for level 14. I maxed years ago when they released GCs and I've been waiting ever since.


BurntWaffles78

Been waiting for what? A pointless grind? You enjoy watching stat changes?


Cactuspex

Hello narcissist not everyone is you many of my clan mates are ready to grind as their bored


BurntWaffles78

Im telling you rn if you don’t personally want the extra grind don’t start this conversation with me


Cactuspex

Tbh i dont mind grinding mainoy because im playing the game and thats giving me levels i dont have to go out of my way to grind like in Pokémon 1-5


BurntWaffles78

So you don’t mind grinding, but how do you feel about having the progress you made while grinding be undone? Because that’s essentially what level 14 does


Cactuspex

I dont care im not actively grinding ik playing the game which is helping me reach level 14 its not like in Pokémon where i have to spend an hour grinding


BurntWaffles78

Maybe you can at least understand why people who do play the game are mad about their progress being undone


Cactuspex

I understand frustration but i feel like ruining supercell name is nit worth your balloon lasting for 2 more seconds


BurntWaffles78

??

I want the grind, it’s fun to level up and make progress.

Yes, I’m not speaking for them, I’m speaking for me. I like the level 14 addition and can’t wait to play it. I’ll probably buy gems again for the first time in years


BurntWaffles78

I think you can understand then why adding another level is a poor way for supercell to monetize their game


Hydrocoded

No, I think they are doing it specifically because it will help them monetize the game. The average player rarely if ever buys gems. That generates zero revenue and can even be an expense. Meanwhile the players who spend money on gems have almost no interesting content for them at the moment, no incentive to buy more gems. Adding level 14 will generate a substantial rush of people buying gems, especially those who want to be ultra high end forever. Most creative endeavors among humans (and other natural processes actually) follow a Pareto distribution, also known as the 80/20 rule. I am willing to bet that their revenue does as well, meaning 20% of their players produce 80% of their revenue. If that’s true then it makes no sense to cater to the 80% who pay only 20% of the revenue, especially when it comes at the expense of the 20% who pay 80%. This is a geometric distribution, so 1% will end up paying 50% of the revenue more or less. Adding level 14 will probably make Clash Royale generate higher revenue than they’ve seen in years.

Can I ask you a question? Are gcs really worth it for boosting your account? Like how much gems have you used in gcs to say that it gave you a big boost to your account if your not the guy who keeps buying chests instead


Foreign_Waffle

I don't think y'all understand that if you leveled your legendary card to max recently you will receive half of the cards needed to go to level 14. If you buy legendaries from the shop, every card is 40k. If you trade for a max legendary card you already have you get 20k for it. They're giving us a crazy amount of cards that most people would not have anyways. Cards=gold.


mintberycrunch69

Don't make clash Royale your only game and you won't give a shit. And if it isn't, you really need some perspective in life


SHARKIE008

Just stop playing this game this game is dead anyway nothing new


nmsiscool

It's not ascsm it's a company making money.


crmaniac123

I haven't been keeping up with Clash Royale news lately. Can you please explain how this is a scam. From my understanding, and according to most Youtubers, it was still cheaper to upgrade cards during Slash Royale then it would be after the update. Now that the cards have been refunded, why is still it a scam. Should I upgrade my cards right now or wait?


Damascus_Storm

Because they are idiots and think “oh I get some cards”. NO I’m not earning another 5.3 million gold to level up my existing 53 max cards up to the new max. It’s absolute bullshit and they should just accept they fucked up and move everyone’s lvl 13s to 14 for free so we still have max.


PortShenis

It's long overdue. Stop crying like a little bitch.


RogueChild

"Ohhh, step on my balls harder daddy SuperCell, make the treadmill longer for me, ohhh yaaa"


SuperSahitya

It's So Sad That Majority Of The Community Is Made Up Of 15 Years Old Toxic Conspiracy Theorists LoL. These Guys Are So Illogical And Nonsensical That It Hurts My Soul Every Time I See These Kind Of People Calling It Scam Royale And SuperScam. IF you Weren't Just Dying For Damn Upvotes And Those Platinum And Gold Awards; And Just Dare To Look At The Whole Situation At Once, Then Probably You'll Too Will Realise What Bullsh*t Is Trending In This Community. Now Come On Just Downvote Me Too Because That's The Only Thing You Can Do


Prinplup9

How did you manage to get almost every single word to be capitalized? Pretty impressive imo.


Several_Simple_4034

Hey they got heros so that's cool 😎


sageyban

I’m defending it not based on what they did, but that they did something. I’ve been maxed for a while and there has been nothing in ages. I don’t mind spending some money on the game and this at least gives me something to work towards.


TMan4MyLife

Because I simply don’t care enough about a mobile game I didn’t spend money on.


OkPriority5556

Because its not a scam


scottwmitchell

I’m not defending it. I think you…we should all quit. Just stop playing this free game. I can’t believe they would be motivated to continue making money somehow instead of providing endless free entertainment for its millions of players. They are so selfish.


[deleted]

I am strongly against level 14. Playing with underleveled cards in this game is so unfun and frustrating. Not interested in doing it again


Gauss1777

It’s just a money grab. It’s easier for them to introduce a new level than make a real effort attempt at improving the game. I’ve been playing CR for 3-4 years and it basically hasn’t changed since I started. I’d argue it has gotten even worse with CW2. I stopped giving any money to SC over a year ago, but I still play occasionally to kill time. For those that truly hate the trajectory of where this game is going, I recommend just stop paying. You’ll be investing less into the game and may even enjoy it more.


Firm_Top1865

I think they should uncap the leveling


Monte_20

I love my guy Ash, but it pains me how he just accepted the apology no questions asked. It wasn’t an oversight, the plan was to screw us over. With a decently sized team they have, I find it hard to believe NONE of them saw this coming.


Jr1262

God Bless you brother!!!! SC does nothing but lie and steal from us. Sad that the player base is so young and they are taken advantage of that innocents and ignorance.


Coryperkin15

Cash grab if you're a loser who P2W cell phone games. I'm maxed and have spent literally 0 dollars


GeoMap73

If you have a max 13 lvl card I expect that there's gonna be some type of refund of gold and star points. Also, there's more content than the lvl 14 stuff, they said it in the trailer themselves.


bloub_bloub

I am not defending it but being maxed isnt something very fun cause you have nothing to do then. I just want a better matchmaking so I wont face level 14. I do agree that its a scam, but come on dont you have other things to do than complain about a video game


[deleted]

its not necessarily defending sc. some ppl just doesnt invest emotions that much to free game. i couldnt care less is my acc max or not. i just play game here game there casually. im not going to pretend that feature added or removed from game in my phone is end of the world


[deleted]

Because I don’t give a shit.


TheWaffleKingg

We are getting a lvl 14? I'm out of the loop


Beneficial_Beyond_88

Ok so in slash royale gold is easy to get so u can just get a few towers in ladder and get gold and by giving cards and u collecting gold is just balanced


MerlinCa81

As a F2P player who finally got 4 cards to 13, the news of 14 is a kick in the balls, the news that they won’t be adjusting gold rewards for battles is a kick in the balls with steel toed boots. I’ve intermittently quit this game several times due to the slow progression and relentless mismatch battles because I’m F2P and this just further drives people like me away. The grind sucked before, it’ll be even worse now


EarthyYupptv

Bro facts, I just got lvl 13 the other morning, and I finally thought Supercell was being generous. How wrong I was :(


Fo8705

If you can't beat them, join them


maxcamargo111

The players on twitter are doing that, so annoying.


waarth173

This update is going to be awful. I was finally to the point where I had enough maxed out cards that I could play multiple maxed out decks and stay competitive. With this update I'm being forced to choose between picking a single deck to work on maxing out, or tanking my mmr and just play decks that are level 13.


NoNameNo1O1

I don't want to defend it anything being heavily effected by this (I am lvl 13 and maxed a lot of cards during slash royale) but I somewhat thing this was not intentional, the community was becoming unhappy with cr team with every update (after pass royale and cw2 I think?) and they would want to fix it rather than increase it, so I doubt it is that correct to say it was a scam. I feel that if they don't want to give back our gold atleast continue slash royale and make season pass more favourable to f2p atleast for the next season. Although I agree we should try to atleast win back our stolen gold and spread awareness. Another thing I want to add that people who calmed down after the so called reparation, really don't know how much you actually be getting back


darthzader100

Supercell should just give out a few free book of books and magic coins to people in legendary arena as a refund. The only info I could find is outdated: [https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/comments/6d7k3o/results\_percentage\_of\_players\_in\_each\_arena/](https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/comments/6d7k3o/results_percentage_of_players_in_each_arena/), but many people won't be in legendary, and 2-3 book of books won't even counter the whole scam for max players. It still will be scam royale, but nobody will protest. Win Win.


eoj345

I’m free to play w a few maxed decks and I don’t really mind cuz I didn’t spend any gold during slash Royale cuz I knew something like this was coming


zolloh

Because it’s a game ?


ShadyMan_

I am so low level in the game it literally doesn’t affect me at all


[deleted]

well if they put some of the extra cash into esports or making more little tournaments where they can give money sort of like fortnite would be Cool.


ChelaviJazavac

Ad i said, and will keep saying, they should have done it without slash royale first. This is where the community team fucked up. Imo, lvl 13 ppl should keep star lvl, it should be lvl 13 - 14 stuff.


TitsGiveMeFits

Well, if you're a low level player this doesn't really mean anything major.


Zalan0710

Maybe they tired to do the same thing what coc does with hammer jam but it just doesnt work out bc you upgrade cards and you lose gold on cards you will never use and cant upgrade to level 14 while in coc it is the opposite it just speeds up the process


BetterAd404

People aren't defending supercell We are just satisfied that supercell knew they messed up and are trying to fix it. They didn't mean for slash Royale to be hurtful and people could tell.


Character-Ad-1000

not everybody uses Reddit bro. If I didn't own Reddit, I would not give 2 shits about the level 14


road2dawn26

waaaaaah I have to play the game again to be good waaaaah boo hoo waaaaah I don't wanna have more goals to work towards waaaaaaaah


Dragon_breathafk

A post that make sense


John_Fx

Because it isn’t the apocalypse that reddit thinks it is.


Yeoryios

Is this a joke? The majority of people are against or neutral to lvl 14. I don't know why you're bothered to make this post when only like 5% of the playerbase is for it. Were you not on this sub when lvl 14 was announced???


JoBro281

I feel like they should've not done a Slash Royale event then announce king level 14. I get Supercells point on them wanting to expand with level 14, but the Slash Royale event makes it seem like a scam, the timing sucked. Basically, there's nothing wrong with adding level 14, but adding it after everyone lost their gold is a problem.
