Well I too echo the "never again":

Finishing Rank: About 1250ish

Finishing Points: 7.5M or so

Deck Strength (start and end event): Started around mid 7's, after event have 8.2

Cash Spent: $20 or so

What you did/ didn't enjoy:

Liked: Well, I liked the characters they picked as prize cards, and that's about it.



Didn't like: the adjustment to rewards, the complete worthlessness of gold/silver medals. Also I REALLY wanted to get under 1,000 for Jetfire, and that's why I spent the money. However on the last day I couldn't raise rank due to lag/not a lot of bosses (cubes weren't the issue) which led to me becoming incredibly disillusioned with the game. I now have 1/2 of a Jetfire. I guess it's a blessing because it's taught me never to waste that much money on the game again. It also taught me the X5 raid card is better than almost all of the prize cards. Anyway I'm not the only one, I hope Mobage actually notices but I highly doubt they will. I wish desperately there was some way to complete the Jetfire but that is a dream that is already dead.

How you fared with space bridge returns from gold/silver medals:

Nothing, just some R3's I didn't have, but that are too weak to make my deck. Medals now seem to only be good for selling or using as upgrade fodder. The R4's (i got a handful last event) are basically gone.



What it comes down to is if you want to get to the 2,500-5,000 level you can spend just a bit of money on the X3 of money and just play A LOT. If you want to get under 1K you pretty much have to spend an insane amount of time and money, and after all the time I spent to get half a jetfire, I won't be doing it again. Otherwise I feel like there's not much to the game besides gluing your face to it and inserting cash in it. Due to the weekly events, there is zero strategy in deck building, and everyone's deck looks similar. R3's are almost all worthless, and even the original R4's are obsolete. It's not a collectible card game if everyone's deck shares the same 10 cards with a few different ones. It's just a grind. Just IMO. Congrats to all who made their goal, it really is an impressive commitment. I just can't do it again.
