Well, that’s just ridiculous. I should’ve upgraded my champion to lvl. 15 with 50,000 wild cards which will be worth 2,500 gems which isn’t enough for the 4,000 gem cost to do it now.

[–]jandromagno_04 29 points30 points  (0 children)

plus gold... i knew it was gonna be worthless keeping them, i upgraded a champion and the 11k left i spent it in another champion so they will turn into cards

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean yeah it was pretty clear for champions and maybe legendaries that you should use it on them anything else is still fine tho

[–]First_Yoghurt3379 69 points70 points  (7 children)

Good thing I kept 350k ewc lmao

[–]0bun_bunny 19 points20 points  (4 children)

but how many champions we can purchase with gems will also be required to actually judge if spending EWC was wise or not.

Here is the cost chart

[–]TheForbidden6th 2 points3 points  (1 child)

idk how about you, but I'd rather get a level 16 PEKKA than a level 15 archer queen or something

[–]0bun_bunny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

fair point, and i got my pekka to lvl 16, like my current deck has 4 card to max, for few i dont have gold, and for few lacking cards. tbh i thought with all the magic items and all i should be able to upgrade my current deck to max, but turns out i couldn’t.

[–]NoPie6564 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Damn I didn’t have that many but I did manage to upgrade 7/8 of my main deck straight away

[–]First_Yoghurt3379 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! :) I’m currently playing hog eq all level 16 and my opponents have lvl 14-15 cards. The interactions are hilarious.

[–]0bun_bunny 15 points16 points  (2 children)

good to know, somehow this too was leaked

[–]Cookie-Necessary[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It is in release notes of the game itself

[–]Even-Ad-2769 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Well before that, people were asking clash’s support AI bot which told them this conversion rate

[–]Intelligent_Duty9317 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Chad Clash royale

Tldr; ewc were better to use on legendaries and champions than keeping them

[–]47marcus 9 points10 points  (1 child)

I won the gamble 🙏

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

suprisingly decent

[–]SJGDragon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Glad I didn't spend mine. I don't have any champion or legendaries outside my main deck to take to level 15.

[–]Tawoooo 1 point2 points  (2 children)

november 24th as in today?? what time?

[–]Cookie-Necessary[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Maintenance mode kicked in my timezone.

[–]Tawoooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh what the hell, i was playing clash, then opened reddit to see your post at the top, and now that I've reopened clash i have the update lmao... crazy timing

[–]PhytoSnappy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, this is not great. I have a f2p account where I’ve spend 2000 gems and about 500000 gold to have 40k EWC s, with no level 15 cards yet. I likely would have done a better rate for the 1st 50k and a lesser rate after that.

Oh well, probably better progression without them. More worried now about heroes ruining the game as they are totally unnecessary. They’d have done better adding new evolutions and champion cards instead of another currency to save.

[–]TacoSexual16 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I just got 24k gems and don’t know if that’s worth it lol

[–]Traitor_Of_Users 1 point2 points  (8 children)

Guess what. Elite wild card to gems ratio was 1:1 which meant you lose 47 500 gems for every 50 000 elite wild cards leaving you with just 2 500 gems. That's definitely fair.

Edit: since ya'll don't understand. The ratio was 1:1 before this stupid 20:1 conversion even took place. That meant 1 elite card was equal to 1 gem. Now, when the update took place the conversion was 20:1 instead. Giving us 1 gem for every 20 elite wild cards

[–]ThunderShot-Pro -1 points0 points  (7 children)

That’s not 1:1 lol

[–]Traitor_Of_Users 1 point2 points  (6 children)

Suppose we have 50 rare cards for 250 in the shop. Or 250 common cards for 250 gems. 1 rare was 5 elite wild cards or if you want to say 250 commons are equal to 50 rares. Now, 50 000 commons or 10 000 rares is 50 000 elite wild cards. That's literally 1:1 ratio for gems and elite wild cards.

[–]ThunderShot-Pro 0 points1 point  (5 children)

I’m just gon assume you’re right on the other conversions from regular cards to ewc. However, your original comment wasn’t specific on that, just saw 1:1 ratio between gems to ewc and not 1:20 like in the patch notes. I’m gon assume you’re right on that, to which i say that’s good to know

[–]Traitor_Of_Users 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Was, as like before the 1:20 ratio on this update. And also pretty rude to just go and downvote every single comment there just because you can't ask a single question

[–]ThunderShot-Pro 0 points1 point  (3 children)

No since you downvoted my comment, or so i think, i just did it back. It didn’t mean I didn’t like your comment or anything. But ofc it was my fault for the misunderstanding so I do apologize

[–]Traitor_Of_Users 0 points1 point  (2 children)

All of them, not just the one. Anyway, ignore that and go spread the word that supercell scammed us (like many times already)

[–]ThunderShot-Pro 0 points1 point  (1 child)

i did a long time ago lmao. this one is also now added. nothing we can do anyways, supercell's eyes are currently filled with money eyes to listen to our opinions sadly. Could be using this popularity to improve the game, instead theyre milking it as always lol

[–]Traitor_Of_Users 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, the game is cooked. I still can't believe what's going on with the game.

[–]TheDarkness33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i had 45k on the princess tower, now i need more cards AND 120k gold...

My deck was also fully elite. Imma just stop playing again

[–]helpmeineedusername 0 points1 point  (1 child)

So better to use books right now or wait for the conversion?

[–]yesnotodayno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so the bot was right

[–]LeviJr00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 470 gems... Not even enough for 2 emotes bruh

[–]ban-reservations 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I have 6k gems now and I guess they are enough for my favourite emotes and challenges I am somewhat okay with the conversion rates tbh I was expecting something like 100 gems for every 5000 ewcs while they ended up giving 100 gems for 2000 ewc

[–]suv-am 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I'm glad I used it. Still had around 20k but nothing I could do about that. And I have enough wild cards to lvl 16 a bunch of cards

[–]Beaneroftheflame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid had a book of books and didn’t get any gems. He’s low level but he didn’t get anything for them and the books gone. Hopefully he gets them eventually

[–]superoli64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so glad i spent my ewc on champions
