The Scroll Jackpot Event was one of the most disappointing Clash Royale events I've ever played.
​
I've been playing Clash Royale for over 10 years, and honestly, this event was the final straw.
I'm a free-to-play player. I don't spend real money on overpriced offers, so progressing already takes forever. If I want to play a different deck, I usually can't because my cards are underleveled, I'm missing the required Hero Card, or I don't have the Evolution. That's already frustrating enough.
Then came the 5-day Scroll Jackpot event.
I didn't hit a single Jackpot. Instead, I got 25, 50, 75 and 100 Gems. Seriously... what am I supposed to do with that?
Upgrading ONE card from Level 15 to Level 16 costs around 5,000 Gems. How is 25 Gems supposed to be a consolation prize? Those rewards make absolutely no difference to account progression.
The only Jackpot reward that actually felt like a jackpot was the Maxed-Out Account. Everything else was decent, but those rewards could have been given to far more players instead of being locked behind ridiculously low odds while still being called "Jackpot" rewards.
Another strange thing happened. During the first few days, after claiming your reward, the game asked if you were satisfied with it, with "Yes" and "No" buttons. Then, after a couple of days, both buttons suddenly became "Yes". Why even ask for feedback if you remove the option to say "No"?
And what happened with the event ending?
For days, the Jackpot rewards were being claimed very slowly. Most rewards had only around 100 winners worldwide. Then, suddenly, within just a few hours, every Jackpot reward disappeared, even though my game still showed 2 days remaining. Was the timer wrong? Did the event end early? We still haven't received an explanation.
I honestly hoped I'd have a chance to win the Maxed-Out Account, but I guess I expected too much from Supercell... just like always.
Did anyone else experience the event ending early or feel completely disappointed by the rewards?
