Quote from www123wwwIf you wanted 1000 gold, it would take you 16 hours of 10-20+ minute matches back-to-back with 100% winrate.
I don't think anyone can play 100 games straight and make the matches last 10 minutes and win every single one of them.
If the matches were under 10 minutes, it would take you 200 matches back-to-back with 100% winrate.
That would take you 32 hours straight.
If you were to lose one you would have your gold dropped extremely, it would probably take you a few weeks to just get 1 item.
You've never seen me play then.
The gold is like this, so people come back if they want something. It's hard to abuse (for the most part) and if you want more gold, you can do what the original purpose was, BUY it.
The empire coins (gold) is a paying currency, the fact that you get it for free is completely generous.
