Whoever cooked up this Pathfinder must really hate players. 15% chance to clog up the board with an unmatchable Ghost Gem, to throw another wrench into looping capabilities. Was there any impression we don’t yet get docked enough points for not winning within 10 turns?

These troops you are giving us week in and week out is “bad to the bones”.

Clogging up the board with a LOT of unmatchable gems can help increase the odds of getting matches when creating gems, since there’s less spaces left to create them in so they’re more likely to touch each other. But obviously there’s a limit before you run out of space to create gems in.
The problem is that this is a low chance of a single gem, and we’re aiming to finish within 10 turns. At most, we’ll have 10 gems, which is not enough to be useful, but plenty enough to get in the way and be annoying.
Given that the pathfinder troops are already barely usable, given how bad they are at looping and that a single failed loop can lose you the game at higher levels, adding a mechanic that can decrease the odds of looping is insulting.

It feels like the underlying problems haven’t been addressed, and the situation remains stuck.
We need dislikes on this forum.
You keep shoving journey on us when NOBODY LIKES IT. GET RID OF IT
Or there isnt money in fixing/removing journey and thats all they care about
