Out of curiosity I sorted my troops on “amount” wondering what I had the most copies of. Now, I’m seriously doubting the math behind this game. ![Screenshot (13)](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/0/2/020f360a5205d66985ce69c1f8bc747ed0856029.jpeg) ---

I noticed this before. It happened to me when I opened a chest/got troops without refreshing the game. I think it uses old/cached data to sort by. ---

Sort by rarity is off sometimes too. My theory is the same as @blindnighto where it is using old cached data. ---

If you get the new mythic, upgrade it instantly and then sort troops on level, it will still be at the bottom Several other cases this happened to me ---

Disenchant all extra troops, and sorting is a mess . Restart game helps ---

Is there any benefit to having so many copies of troops? Or is just a matter not wanting to be bothered to make the clicks it takes disenchant them all? ---

There’s a disenchant all button. It’ll only disenchant troops at mythic and down to 4 copies each. It will also not touch treasure troops. Reason not to is the possibility of them releasing a new rarity beyond mythic that would require additional copies of troops you already have at mythic. ---

The latter. Don’t need the souls, so they… Accumulate.
