I can see your point. However, if the frosting is all RNG based and is clearly marketed for those who have gems compared to those who have not. Then the extra frosting hurts the game more than helps it. Since people play video games to feel good and to not feel bad. And in this case, players can’t “git good”. Instead it’s either get lucky or rich enough to waste money on a free video game.

Just had a really solid player leave this morning after being fed-up with the game. They were in the 1400s level-wise and just had enough. There have been a few of those in our guild over the last few weeks.
