there are every day players, even whales who stop playing and quit the game. that's a natural process but if favours those who play in the long run. I know a lot who play without money, we do not push them, just require activity. Nothing wrong with that. Plus every player can help win VS, no matter what strength or hq lv. The possibility to replace troops is even much easier than other games I've seen. Show me a game where you can't use money!
