Guys is it safe to play the holiday event? I don’t use the new troop but I am afraid to get the ban bug. ---

What did you get so far? I’ve got the Krink, red pet and costume and I’m afraid of getting the golden pet. ---

I will not play the holiday event till I get a confirmation that it is safe to play. regardless of what to miss in the holiday event shop, because it is not worth it to get a ban over it. ---

This is the 6th day of the event. And the bans started after the first players received Kris Krinkle. I think everything is safe if you play the event as before. Just don’t use Kris Krinkle and don’t touch the new pets. But this is a good reward for Christmas from the developers 😅 ---

It’s ok to play. Just don’t use Santa or do treasure hunts. That seems to be be the real problem so far from what I was able to gather from grommets everywhere . I mean gemmers ---

Apparently it’s using Krinkle that gets you banned. ---

My friend just got banned and he doesn’t own Kris. That is crazy. This is embarrassing and disgusting act by the game dev. ---

Ive been playing it everyday with a krinkle no problem but some arent so lucky i would say just dont use krinkle, it seems its the maps u get that are triggering the bans so just use a normal team ---

It won’t help if the game decides to pick you - it will do it. It’s like in GW, when the AI has decided that you can’t win…
