I love this game and deserves 5stars as it could be fun. But you can't win with an unbalanced army. If you progress too quickly, they keep you from progressing further and you stay in the same level forever. I was so close to buying upgrades, but then realised this game is too expensive and you need to upgrade, a lot. Not even good value for money. This is not Pay to win, it is just pay and still lose so that you pay more. This game is targetting rich nerds.🤓🤑

Well, up to level 5 the game seem playable and fair. But once I entered the silver league, it's like hitting a brick wall. Get ready to lose 4 out of 5 matches. Player leveling is NOT fair. Even with the "level capping". It feels like you are being punished for doing too well, too soon. And lowering your XP /Medals to even the playing field also seems impossible, as you are stuck on the league you reach.l, then get pitted against higher level players forever. No reward for loosing, so you cannot upgrade troops. Only way forward is by crates, which takes hours, or by purchases. And I am glad I didn't purchase any starter packs - cause you will just end up in the same scenario, but at a higher level. Already commited to the game via a purchase, you feel compelled to continue in the cycle in order to progress... I did, however not feel any purchase was forced or required. I do feel that the game is playable for free, unlike many other games. I have however, never so quickly felt frustrated and outmatched by other players, and this is on my 2nd day already. So the need to purchase something in this game comes not from the game or slow progress, but the unfair match making engine... The game has a lot of potential. Hope this balancing gets resolved...

Fun game. I am able to play the game without any in game purchases. I wish the different buildings had separate cool downs for faster production of units. And the Challenge battles really suck because although you don't lose medals if you lose the parings are more often than not super unbalanced, impossible te win. Where I am now I am only getting Challenge battles that is impossible to win so I do not see the point. Not convinced Nod and GDI are well balanced either
