Now my DC streak is 11 of the last 14. It seems that the DC is much more playable and winnable (and more enjoyable ) than when it was rolled out as evidenced by this streak. And, I’ve used gems only once during this run. My playing skills haven’t suddenly taken a quantum leap upward, so one can reasonably conclude that Rovio has buffed the game in response to myriad comments from players from this forum and other precincts. For those who are loath to use gems or spells, well, that’s what they’re for. And you don’t have to buy them. The daily gift combined with the 15/30 minute chest awards allows one to build up a fairly large cache fairly quickly. I don’t use spells for the DC or regular levels and I only use gems on the boss when his health meter is near zero. The reward for using gems almost always exceeds the cost of using them. As for the Arena, the goal is to win the faux PvP match-up and if gems and spells are needed, then fine. Especially when matched against cheaters/hackers. If one has a purist philosophy and wants to win in head-to-head matches on skill alone, one’s win/loss ratio might be less than one desires. How many times will you win when pitted against a player whose birds are ranked higher than yours and with 5 spells? This is not to suggest that you should play the way I play or to criticize your play method. By all means one should play the way one feels most comfortable. Bear in mind, however, that skill only plays a part in one’s method. Other variables are present that can have a larger impact on game outcome than skill. Happy flinging everyone!
