There was a bug previously with receing additional notifications from the app, about all of the last 3-5 things that qualified for it, for no reason.

This is probably the leftover part of it.

Hey @Hizsoo thanks for reaching out. When you say flicker, do you mean the notification itself flickers on your screen or does it disappear and come back again a while later? And does this only occur when you have the game running in the background? Thanks!

After clicking on it, it gets dismissed as usual, than I receive a new one in less than half a sec. The new notification stays until the game opens up, which takes a few sec on the older device I'm using.

It visually seems as flickering.

I only noticed this when the game was in the background already.

I gotta correct myself.

I think that receiving a new notification, after the one I clicked, was a wrong call. The same notification flickers, but not necesserily the C&C: Rivals notification.

The conditions are the same as described before.

Thanks @Hizsoo for the extra information. It sounds like it might be very specific to your device especially if it's not just Rivals notifications. Have you restarted your device recently? Sometimes that helps sort out little issues like this.

I do restart it when I notice some problems.

This might be the problem, when my device is low on memory, but this exact problem doesn't happen with any other app.

Also, when the game isn't running in the background and I open it from a notification, the screen freezes until the game gets opened.

I mean the notification panel freezes, while it would scroll back up.

And I use my device in opposite sitting position. The top of it turned to right.
