I am on both sides of the coin here.
Absolutely non money players do have an opportunity to win something for the gems they collect through dailies, Saturday sails and arena. They may get lucky or may not. But when playing and gems are collected for FREE, can anything more be expected?
As for someone like Execdude, the rewards should be high enough to keep his interest. After all he is spending high, reward should be high. Free spins, lowering gem costs will only diminish the available rewards and therefore could lower the interest of the top coiners, I am certain the dev's do not want this to happen.
Those who spend some do benefit. The choice to spend some knowing they will not keep up with top coiners is a choice they have made and generally benefit or they would stop spending.
With this said, I think the casino is set up as it should be. It is a casino. You have a choice to try or not. If you decide you don't have the opportunity because you play for free, you are playing for free nonetheless and money talks.
The rewards seem fairly balanced for the cost. I received a bunch of stamina which helped as the judgement equip has been opened up. I received 100 gems twice giving me essentially the low prizes for nothing. I got enough purple stars to move my main to 13. I didn't hit any big prizes but I didn't spend big gems either.
The changes made in champ wars to try to level the power ratios in competition help to bridge the coiner gaps.
The guild war changes do not seem to have changed much except made it more difficult for the guilds with less players to compete by diminishing their top players hp quicker. The guild I am in can only compete because of the top 3 power players it has. Now, I am not sure we can.
