    I assume you're confused because of rule 8:

    Which is specified as:

    However, there's this in the news rules:

    That should hopefully clarify all your uncertainties. :)

    all i an say is, while the gameplay was good, the card artworks where awesome most of the time, and the ui was easy and somehow intuitive, their greed made the game, unplayable without spending money, so while i will miss the game, i won miss the crap they changed it into

    Plus, the TERRIBLE customer service. I've been having trouble with TF: Battle Tactics, and FOUR days later, no reply on their latest update not functioning on my device.

    Not to mention their attitude for piss-poor Space Bridge payouts is, "we do this to prevent a pay-to-win scenario". :lolol 

    What they mean is, "we want you to pay LUDICROUS AMOUNTS to actually see a tangible benefit when spending money; we don't need poor people's money! :D "

    For those who've spend some serious dough on the Legends game, I recommend giving Google Play a phone call. They're pretty laid back and nice about things, so maybe a partial refund. :)  (But it does come out of Google's own wallet, NOT DENA, so you might want to contact DeNA first - futile as that may be).

    I played this for quite some time but the 'pay to win' component became so obscene I gave up on it.

    To clarify I have NO objection to paying to improve my standing in a F2P game but what I do take issue with is when those investments become worthless a few days later.

    I suspect this is part of the reason for the closure.

    Such should be the fate of all pay-to-win garbage, especially when DeNA/Mobage are involved.

    I won't ever touch freemium games, so I shed no tears for this.

    Next time, make a full game, charge us for it, and let us play without paying any more.

    Throw me into the "I don't play freemium games" camp. Don't care it's going but sad for those who enjoyed it. I will miss the artwork.

    Just go play one of the thousands of other cookie cutter card battle games. Same experience minus the transformers theme.

    Looks like Mobage finally ran this game into the ground with their terrible customer service, greed, and pay-to-win business model. Guess now they can focus their attention on Rising and do the same thing there.

    Pay-to-win has pretty much ruined phone games for me. Quality premium titles are too few and far between. 2DS it is then.
