PASS ROYALE SEASON 8

PASS ROYALE STILL VIABLE OR NOT

DO YOU NEED PASS ROYALE ?

Can't you do without Pass Royale ??

What are the basic needs we can fill with the Pass Royale ?

1. A lot of Gold, Many Cards (from common to Legendaries) and many token
2. A feeling of Pride when you know every challenges will be completed
3. A feeling of satisfaction when you know you'll get all the new emotes
4. A feeling of Power when you'll see your name in Gold

Let's talk about Number 1… Where could you get GOLD without the Pass Royale ? By participating to Clan Wars of course ! Clan Wars are the best option to make gold without the Pass Royale, you just need to find yourself a nice Legendary Clan (3000+ War points), with co-leaders not stressing you all the time. Because STRESS is a HUGE Factor in Clan Wars and highly depends on the Leadership inside your clan…

Most of the time players don't want to participate to Clan Wars because they're stressed. The Fear of losing, The Fear of being watched by other teammates while you play your Collection / War matches, The Fear of having 2 matches to do during the War Day… Twice the amount of stress on your shoulders ! And if the co-leaders are stressing you even more, it becomes unbearable and some players just NEVER participate to WAR.

See the amount of Gold below ? That's 7500 Gold won in only 48 hours, just the time to complete a war and that's without counting the +500 / +1000 gold for every matches you won individually… Raising the Total to nearly 10000 GOLD !

What i want to demonstrate… is that in 1 week you can easily make between 20000 to 40000 GOLD by participating non-stop to the Clan Wars. Who would need a Pass Royale with such an amount of gold won every week ? I am not even counting the CLAN WAR Chest you receive by the end of the War Season, which is every 2 weeks or so… That's again MORE Gold and MORE Cards !

Of course your Clan war matches can sometimes be very tough, as you'll be matched with higher opponents ! But as long as you got the same level of cards… You'll be able to prevail as it will be about skill and nothing else 😉 See below… I was matched with a Champion but eventually i won… Even if it wasn't that easy ! in Clan Wars people tend to be more serious… even more than ladder ! So don't rush and you'll win…

basically if you participate to every Clan Wars, you won't need the Pass Royale to make more gold !

WE TALKED ABOUT GOLD

Now let's talk briefly about Number 2 to 4, Pride, Satisfaction and Power !

PRIDE

How important is it to Complete a Challenge ?

Let's say you manage to maximize a deck you like to play in ladder, let's say you have adeck full of level 13 cards and you can enjoy the ladder to its fullest… Will it still be important for you to complete challenges ? Will you feel bad if you lose a challenge and will be forced to pay with gems ?

For me since all my different mortar decks are maxed, because i am obviously a mortar player… Challenges are now completely optional ! Because i know they're not going to improve my primary deck whatsoever… So in the end i'd only gain other cards which are not a requirement for me to enjoy the game.

But let me know in the comments if you have a different point of view.

SATISFACTION

How important is it to get the New Emotes ?

I am going to be honest with you… For me Tower Skins are useless.

If i win one i am going to select it… But after that i am going to use the newest and then the old one will be trashed… And as for the Emotes i am playing in “Mute” mode all the time because it distracts me too much. So in the end it's purely cosmetic and i only use them maybe 2% of the time… Not that much useful. But again i am willing to hear your point of view about it in the comments below…

POWER

How important is it to have the Golden Name ?

I'll continue to be honest… Apart from standing out of the crowd it absolutely serves no purpose… i'd probably feel more powerful by reaching a CHAMPION Level than to have this gold name -_- That's why after all i said above, the 8th Pass Royale will be the last for me.

but i am willing to hear about your point of view on the golden name !

Still… I am not done with Clash Royale, i am addicted to this game now and i love the competition in Ladder 😉 I'll just stop the Royal Pass, as the Clan Wars will be enough to provide me with all the gold i need. My position in the ladder will be enough to keep my Pride intact, the few emoticons i have will be sufficient to preserve my global satisfaction, and i won't need a Golden Name to feel powerful ^_^

It's not that i find the Royal Pass expensive, on the contrary it's very cheap ! But after some seasons i begin to think the Royal Pass is not something you should subscribe for life… just the time to boost your primary deck and then severe the subscription 😉
