ahh yes sorry, i meant the animations for awarding crowns and chests

EVENT TAB CHANGES

Coming in the June update, players will be able to earn Crowns and chests through Events.

You will be able to earn Crowns through playing Events and chests from winning Events.

Events are the three main game nodes in the Events Tab.

WHY WERE THEY REMOVED?

• Our goal was to separate the core gameplay of Clash Royale, Trophy Road and Path of Legends, from the casual Events but we clearly made a misstep. You earn Crowns and chests here, and you earn Season Tokens here!
• We didn’t want to put all of the focus on playing Events, even if you did not want to necessarily play them, just because it gave you a better way to grind progress.
• By separating the new Season Tokens and Crowns we thought this would make the new Season Shop and currency easier to understand.

WHY ARE THEY BACK?

We saw a lot of feedback from the Clash ...

it also depends on your king level & arena, if you are away for a long time but low level, you will still get the gold.

it's better than no gift at all! but we also don't want to incentivize not playing the game lol

we haven't changed the welcome back gift!

but we do have several 'thresholds' depending on how long a player has been away from the game, what king level they are, and what arena they are in.

the longer they are away, the better welcome back gift the player will get.

OP's 2500 gold is the lowest level of welcome back gift, which means they weren't away from the game for very long.
