What does the new updates mean for us.....


I hardly understand all the gibberish on forums about mods etc etc, I'm terrible at game language, but here's what I conclude:-

We are given limited resources, which is  energies recharging based on time, same like life, we have 24 hours a day, and we exchange our time for money and money for time.

The new addition, MODS(I assume that's what it's called) will require us to use cantina energy, which takes a lot longer to recharge, and a lot more expensive to purchase.

So instead of farming shards, we now have the option to farm items that can further add to customise our squad.

More options would mean 2 things. More possibilities and/or more distraction.

Considering the fact that I have no intentions to purchase any more crystal packs, here's my strategy.

Arena is the most important - free source of crystals which allows us more refreshes which means more resources and options . I'll just have to find a balance between giving me variety of play, and whilst focusing on my arena squad because I know that, ironically, ranking high, will give me crystals to allow more variety of play. Ironically. Chicken and egg....

 Similar to what I wrote in the other article, maximise by minimising!

Arena King,
Josh Mayer
Ranked 1st, daily!

    Lol I stopped reading "articles" of this guy when he was flat out lying in his silly articles.
    And for the love of the force stop with the rank 1st and just post your swgoh.gg page. Its cringe worthy

    i dont see a big issue. a lot of people post their arena rank w/out backing it up or a picture. why are so many comments negatively attacking that one line when so many people post the same?

    the content of what he posted was otherwise reasonable. if you disagree w/ his suggested strat, hit him on that.

    I have never read his other articles, but the above does not seem misleading

    You wanted proof?

    @Joshmayer5555 Normally I don't react to posts like these, but this is kind of funny. A month ago you were asking noob raid questions here on the forum and I happily answered them for you. You asked me to join your line group so I could give you advice. I respectfully declined, because I'm no expert.
    Now all of a sudden you started with this "Arena King" madness and I cringe everytime I read it. You lied about the scoundrel heist event (advising other people not to farm them. Saying you have none, just to make a point in your "article"). Well it's obvious I'm no fan so I'll just don't click on these posts anymore.

    By the way I didn't ask for proof anywhere. I just said that "ranked 1st daily" is cringeworthy. You, me and thousands of others are the living proof that any **** with opposable thumbs can be number 1 in arena. So get over yourself.
    And this proof of yours isn't proof, nowhere does it display your player id or ign. Hmm maybe a swgoh page would do.

    Left by design.
    The fixed payout times are the worst part of this game and makes it absolutely family-unfriendly.

    All hail arena King Josh. Kneel before the one true king!

    Beggar: spare change milord.
    Josh: You dare beg your king for coin? Quiet you lowly peasant, before I remove your tongue and feed it to the wolves.
    Stranger: sorry masta King sah, he's just a boy, he didn't mean to disrespect you your royal highness sah.
    *The arena King leaves on his carriage, piloted by unicorns, as the beggar and his father watch on*
    Beggar's father: son how could you disrespect the king like that? Get over here boy, you better show some respek next time.
    Beggar's child: But father, there are so many kings! AHHHH, daddy nooo, not the belt.

    spoiler alert, bird man is the father, Lil Wayne is the beggar. I haven't been to sleep yet and I'm going crazy.

    I have to say that although being 1st daily is good (for some) your team is just a carbon copy of most teams you see..try a bit of variety..break away from the 'typical' team and see how good you are then.

    @leef Bought my last crystal pack on first of July :)

    @ThePixie unfortunately, as a "f2p", I do not have the option of variety. Fortunately for me, back in my "p2p" days, I worked on a pig squad to do the pigs for T5 which I am enjoying very much doing raids now.

    Again, my objective is to share and learn at the same time. There will always be haters... Or troll, but it doesn't really matter to me... It's a game, it's a forum, if anyone benefited from my articles, good, if not, as the saying goes, "when the student is ready, the master will appear!"

    Humbly,
    Arena King

    LMAO, you haven't bought crystals in 11 days so that makes you FTP? If you spent money on this game you are forever PTP; you, me, everyone that has spent. You certainly are the king of something.

    Hahaha King of denial? Hahahaha

    Anyway, back to point, I don't see any reason to spend anymore, the article was written with intention to help others who also intend to do so..... In protest of the recent mishaps by the game developer.

    I think a great number of light to medium spenders did so chasing 1st place. Sure the crystals are nice but it is likely the lure and justification many of us have used to spend.
