Hello @abc131948881,
I want to share a bit of the reasoning behind the Standard and Premium tracks, as well as why the rewards were lowered when this system was introduced. This is something that was just introduced and we will be monitoring it closely and gathering all your feedback. We can always make changes in the future, including tweaking the rewards for the Standard and/or Premium tracks.
Standard Track: The idea with reducing the standard reward track in value stems from the fact we wanted to reduce the rebuy cost for players who don't feel keen on spending 500-600 diamonds in order to retry the event. That being said, in order for us to reduce the standard track price, it only made sense to reduce the reward values as well because if players did in fact continue to buy into the event. The value would be over the top for what they were paying. As an indirect result, I do realize that this lessens the value tremendously for the free to play player who refuses to buy back into any event regardless. EVERYTHING we do is monitored/assessed and I'm taking your feedback into consideration and will talk with other folks to see how we can remedy this scenario. So please know that we didn't intentionally try to piss anyone off. Our intention was supposed to be positive, but again we are humans and unfortunately can't predict the future which leads to scenarios like this.
Premium Track: There seems to be not as much grief around this as it only applies to spenders and to be fair I think we delivered on this one fairly well. The idea behind this track was so that payers could in fact spend when they felt it was most beneficial to them. Rather than buying into an event at X price point, you buy into an event at Y price point and if you do well you can pay price point X for all those rewards.
