the gold to gems ratio is just stupid when you compare it to the shop offers

So, be prepared for maths. Lots of it. To get started, I think I need to just say that in this post, I am using a ratio of 1 gem= 20 gold. This is the ratio of the middle offer in the shop(if you must know, the other offers are 16.66666 gold per gem, and 22.222222 gold per gem, but this one was in the middle, and WAY easier to do) I won't go through the common costs and rare costs, but epic costs and legendary costs I will go through, and I will compare them to their respective chests. 1000 gold is the cost for the first epic. Convert this to gems, and you get 50 gems. For 1 epic card. I don't know about you, but I think that this amount of gems is ridiculous. For 2 cards, the cost is 3000, so this in gems is 150. That is a complete ripoff. and for 55000 gold, I get 10 epic cards, which is 2750 gems, of which I could have spent on 5 legendary chests. But in the epic chest, that is a different story. It costs 10000 gold,(I am using this number for simplicity's sake) You get a variety of different epics, for more than 5x the value of 10 in the shop. I understand that it is a special offer, but I have not yet seen a five point five times valueon a special offer. Of course, these only appear 1 time a week, but so does epic Sunday. Now we have the legendary costs. 40000 gold for 1 legendary card of your choice, or 2000 gems. That's right. For 2000 gems, or 4 legendary chests worth, I can get 1 measly card that only appears every now and then. For 2 cards, you spend 120000 gold, or 6000 gems! 12 legendarys for the price of 2! And for the grand finale, for 3 legendarys, I spend 240000 gold, or 12000 gems. I feel like this is the biggest ripoff you can have in a game. Just think! 21 legendarys have instantly gone down the drain, just because you bought the card in the shop.( I know that leggy chests don't appear often, but I'm using them as a pricing comparison, that 500 gems is 1 legendary. Same with the epic chest) this is just a small insight on how broken this is, and there is one more thing to mention. I used the special offers, but when you don't spend gems on the purchase on the shop screen, then the most gold you can get is 16 per gem. Notice I said most. You can spend 1 gem for 1 gold, or 1 gem for16 gold, depending on how much you need. I think you should definitely get 16 gold no matter what. Thank you for reading my post, but if you dpot any mistakes, please tell me in the comments, and I will edit the post.
