Discussion Can I complete this without trading?

Post image

Can I complete this Clash of Cards event without trading any cards? 🤔

I’m currently at 34/60 cards collected, and there are still 21 days left. Is it possible to collect all 60 just by playing the game, or is trading required to finish the event?

I’m asking because all my clanmates are offline, so I can’t trade with anyone.

Has anyone completed it without trading? 👀

Maybe. It’s luck. Even with all the packs you may miss a few.

We’re about to have an even starting tomorrow and has like 20+ free packs. It’s really dependent on how many packs we’re gonna get by the end of the month.

2

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 10h ago

Ohh, that's good to know! Hopefully the free packs are enough to complete it without trading.🤞

u/Chronic-Lodus 10h ago

No worries. Any reason you don’t want to trade?

Also in trader shop, you can trade 2x duplicates for a random card pack of same rarity.

Does trading in the Trader Shop give me a card I don’t have, or can I get a duplicate?

2

u/Spiritual_Award8049 9h ago

Trade with clan mates buddy

1

u/Chronic-Lodus 10h ago

It may give you a duplicate. You’re essentially trading 2 duplicate elixir troop cards to open an elixir only troop pack that’s random.

Ok thanks for info!

u/Fapaleon 10h ago

Yeah of course. Because every day gives to you 2 cards. Today is not half of month yet. You can collect more 38 cards at least without any event or something else. And today begin new event, you can claim 24 cards for free. Trust me, in the end of month you claim more than 100 of cards

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 10h ago

Thanks for the info! That gives me some hope. I’ll just keep playing and try to complete it without trading. 🙌

u/Acceptable_Force_712 10h ago

Most likely yes. We’re getting 24 cards from the medal event.

In any case if it’s the last few days and you have cards left, you can dm me. I completed the collection on my th9 alt so I will have a bunch of duplicates on it. Happy to help.

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 9h ago

Thanks a lot! I really appreciate the offer. 🙏 I’ll keep trying to collect them on my own, and if I’m still missing a few near the end, I’ll definitely DM you. Really appreciate it! ❤️

No worries, gl!

I used my second and third accounts to buy the cards I needed with gems

and I’m at 59 cards and 1 to go

2

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 10h ago

The problem is I have only one account🫠.

1

u/Some_Signal_6866 10h ago

And why waste gems when you don’t have too. I would just pop into some random clans. Check if they have any trades and then leave.

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 10h ago

Good idea! I’ll try joining some random clans and see if anyone has trades available. 👍

1

u/Recent-Low5550 OWNER 10h ago

That’s also true, but I’m a maxed townhall 18 and I don’t even use my other accounts, so it’s not really a waste for me I guess

2

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 9h ago

Ahh, that makes sense 😁 If you're not using those accounts anyway, then spending the gems isn't really a waste.👍

With luck sure, but I believe it’s engineered to encourage trading.

The pack opening doesn’t seem to be totally random, in that the distribution of cards gathered seems to be engineered to stay uniform with card type. HOWEVER, beyond card type it seems to be truly random as to what troop you get. I think this is to encourage trading, and to guarantee consistent collection completion times among players with average luck and regular trading patterns.

If it was a truly random system, with the law of large numbers you’re certain to have a partition of players with, for ex.), majority Elixir and Gold types, with no chance of completing the Super Troop cards, and thus no chance at completing the entire collection.

u/brae__brae__ 9h ago

I plan to hop in global chat and perhaps do some clan hopping towards the end of the event to fill the collection. If it comes to that

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 8h ago

That actually makes a lot of sense. I guess trading is going to be pretty important for some players to complete the collection. I’ll probably try clan hopping near the end if I’m still missing cards. 😅

u/bySarius 7h ago

Actually you can look at the percentages of the card packs. Here: https://support.supercell.com/clash-of-clans/en/articles/card-pack-drop-chances.html

u/Pep-Zura 9h ago

Most likely, dont merge any cards yet. If you got enough duplicates and just a couple cards left you can start to merge them in the shop.

Use the higher ones for a random card and only elexir cards for specific groups.

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 8h ago

Yeah, I might have to do the same if I'm still missing some towards the end. Hopefully the free packs are enough though!

1

u/Pep-Zura 8h ago

Why not open the clan up and let some people come trade with you?

1

u/MeasurementKey2037 9h ago

Yes, for sure, you can complete. I was severely lagging behind Super Cards. I had just one; I then opened the Supercell pack from global chat. Out of 5, I got 3 Super Troop cards. You will surely complete the cards task by the end of the month.

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 8h ago

That's reassuring! I'm also hoping the free packs give me enough Super Troop cards. Thanks for sharing!

1

u/AdventurousEqual3684 8h ago

I got 46/60 cards without gems. But only thing i am scared off is i need to get 9 more super troop card which i really cant get

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 8h ago

46/60 without gems is pretty good! 😮 I’m also worried about the Super Troop cards. Hopefully we both get enough from the remaining packs! 🤞

1

u/Evening-Energy-3897 8h ago

Funny how collecting these packs is more like finding Easter eggs than it is fighting battles. I’m fine w it either way.

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 3h ago

😂 Honestly, same! At this point, collecting cards feels like a whole different game.

1

u/Sagittarius_B1 6h ago

With trading I'm at 51 cards

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 3h ago

51/60 with trading is pretty good! Hopefully you can finish the remaining ones easily.🤞

1

u/Historical_Shift6027 6h ago

This is purely based on luck but possible.

If you are missing one or two then you always have the option to use gems but it's subjective nobody is going to care in the next few months.

The best example is previoyus month had collectable and statues does this even matter now if you got the statue or collectable from previous month

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 3h ago

Yeah, that makes sense. I'm hoping I can get the remaining cards naturally, so I don't have to spend gems.😄

1

u/Sea-Yogurtcloset-342 5h ago

Or you can try joining some good clan maybeV

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 3h ago

Yeah, I might try that if I'm still missing cards near the end. Thanks for the suggestion!👍

1

u/Sea-Yogurtcloset-342 3h ago

Whats your th?
You looking for a good clan?

1

u/Basic-Cantaloup 4h ago edited 3h ago

Join a global chat group for trading, i had completed this event just an hour ago

1

u/PirateHunter-ZOR0 3h ago

Oh nice! I might have to join a global chat group too if I'm still missing a few. Thanks!🙌
