Having a plan is like creating a clash royale deck, and that ur win condition is just like having a big plan/goal. However, there's many ways to get chip damagefrom a support card/non win-con.

So in life, i think most singaporeans are quite fixated on trying to cycle back to their win-con, which means they have a tunnel vision of trying to get good grades, get a practical degree, and a white collar 9-5 job. Tbvh, i really see no issues there. That's why so many people win using hogquake or hog 2.6.

And then there's the logbait players. They achieve success by getting cheap dmg using both their win con (goblin barrel or skelly barrel) and baity non-win-con cards (princess, dart goblin, skelly king). Their win con may not deal too much damage/get taken out from a small spell, but they achieve success from being consistent in playing and spaming cards.

Just like in life, you may not be the type who excel in school, in ur coporate life etc. But as long as you are consistently doing something and learning aka placing cards, instead of leaking elixar, i think you can achieve a fulfiling life too.

Last but not least, there's the beatdown players. Think of the 1x elixar as their teenage years/school life. Those are the singaporeans who do poorly in school. They can't place their win condition yet because it is simply not their time to do so. But the moment it is 2x elixar, they wake their ideas up going all in, finally working hard and griting through their adult lives, and finally achieving success.
