I never manage to get all of the cards. But I feel like they must finally be listening to us, since I actually got a good selection of gold and diamond cards. I actually finished!

One tiny nitpick is that after you've finished and collected all of the cards, it would be really nice if instead of getting useless cards, that they would instead shift to give us the cards that have the prizes in them instead. Even if we've already won the prizes, you can never have too many prizes!

I ended up getting both Manticore and Hippocampus, and am overall pretty happy with this event. Two small suggestions for future cards events would be 1. to allow you to trade cards again after you've gotten 1 of every card, and 2. to add a feature/screen that allows you to see all of the unapplied cards still in your hand at once, as it's hard to really take stock of them when you can only view one at a time.

I liked this a lot. very low key, you could log in whenever you wanted, work a few or a lot of horses that you would work anyway, and deal with your cards whenever. if you did your log in, you got all the bronze and silver cards easily. if you did the rides and Comps you could pick up the higher level cards, especially from comps.

I bought a couple of packs and got better rewards than opening HoPs, fleeces or especially Crowns will offer (or maybe I just have the WORST luck item luck). I ended up with seversl hestias and a hanful of fleeces as well as enough fragment cards for the weird looking Divine. I think it's the squarish tail that bothers me. whatever, its useful for comps and droppings.

As to the timing of the event end. ALL of the events have ALWAYS ended on the third Monday after they start at 1600 (4pm) France time or 1000 (10am Eastern US). the exception is that fragments can still be earned thru objectives until update time, and clovers can be exchanged for a few days after that type event ends becuase some times you earn them on the very last draw.

if I had remembered about objective fragments, I could have traded a silver joker for something else but that was my mistake. I will absolutely put all the other prizes to good use

Honestly, this was a super solid event. I thought the prizes were pretty balanced so even if you didn't manage to get Manticore, you could make out with other good prizes (Hestia's gift, Tyche's crown, Golden Fleece, etc...). I did have to spend passes to get the divine, but I spent about as many passes as I made doing daily objectives throughout the event. I love it when it works out like that because it makes the divines feel so much more attainable.

I thought the luck element was fun and scratching the cards is always a fun little thing to do when you log in every day (and the demands to get the cards were not hard so even if there wasn't much time to play in a day, it was pretty easy to get the cards each day which takes away a lot of the grindy-feel that previous events have had.

My tiniest, tiniest complaint was that I couldn't trade cards once I had all of their respective family. Getting more bronze card-cards instead of prizes always felt a bit deflating. It would've been nice if after we had all of the bronze/silver/gold/diamond cards we could choose to trade them in for more prizes. Even if it's a measly prize, it's still a prize.

I also liked the flash sales, while I think I got a whole 2 cards from them, it's always a good aspect of the event. It adds that level of competition and was a way for some people to grind in the event, which is perfect for those with the time and resources to do so. The two-day limit didn't affect me heavily but seemed to be a good way to limit how much someone could get from those sales. It was a great way to reward players with more resources without stomping new or free-to-play players (like myself lololol).

To summarize: I felt it was a well-balanced event, with something for everybody. Excellent job default smiley (y)

Thank you again for offering us free prizes including BM items and divines! Although I missed finishing this event by 1 card because I thought the event ended at 10am central time and didn't realize it ended at 9am, it's always still a lot of fun. I really enjoy the events where we only have to log on once a day to play the event.

It Was Fun And Enjoyed Some Of The Gifts And Really Don't Care The Mini Game Ascent Of Olympus That Was Started In December And Still Going On Until Next Month. I Was Hoping That The Mini Game Ascent Of Olympus Would Have Ended By Now

I don't like Manticore, so winning him didn't mean anything to me. I really liked winning 4 golden fleeces, except I used them all and got very few fragments. I really appreciate the Hestia's gift!

Love the cards events. I always end up with some good prizes and was able to get all of the cards this time. Nice low-key, easy event, easy to complete each day even if you are short on time. default smiley ^)

Ascent is a permanent event; unlike the ones like the Cards which are temporary and come around every year or so. Ascent has updates; changes to the grand prize and what prizes can be obtained but it never "ends" like the rotating events do.

This round of cards went better than the last few we've had. I have to agree with some other players. It would be nice if we could trade duplicate cards even if we have all the cards for that type, even if you only give us the prize cards. I was able to get all the collection cards this time with spending very few passes as I managed to get a number of joker cards and on the last day was able to get the 1 gold card that I didn't have a joker card to use on. I even managed to collect extras and get duplicate prizes that I really wanted & did get Manticore, but was not able to get enough fragments to get the one in the Tyche's Crown, but I wasn't surprised about that as I rarely win stuff from that.

All in all not a bad event this time.
