If yes, I start playing War Robots 24/7. If no, I quit for a year and come back to see the game dying and get a huge welcome back reward of 5k+ gold. I've seen many videos of people opening the SC, and I'm only seeing people get 2k, 5k, 10k, and 20k component rewards. Is this information still valid, or has Russian malware nerfed the SC? 20k and 10k components is ideal, but all the grind for 2k? I can get that by spending a couple tokens on War Robots Royale. The progress bar is about 70% filled up. Should I sprint for the home base or should I just give up? Update: Checked recently, casual play somehow got me to a 95% full SC bar  |

It is 5k components
No I don't think any component item is worth it. If you had something pre-update use that.
The difference was like Heachi going from 50M to 200M to just level to 12. Or a light weapon costing 135M, that one blows my mind.

Def not worth grinding for. If you get it good if not then so what. All the effort is in the upgrades now.

Don't bother. Pix has essentially killed the Super Chest with a two-pronged attack.
First was the limit to 5k components, ensuring you can never win a full item.
The second was the new economy, ensuring you can never upgrade your half item to full potential unless you quit your day job.
The SC has basically become an extra source of silver for me now.

It's still gambling---if you have for instance 5k something component and you'd like to bet your grinding time on superchest to get it then go for it, if you'd like to get 3k gold then go for it, but unless you have a lot of yearned pending component items that are half missing, you are more than likely to be disappointed at the result

I only get SC because it comes naturally for me, but I definitely wouldn't grind for it. Of course, it is nice to win a few thousand gold in it every so often (helps a lot with speeding up upgrades) so I don't think SC is entirely useless just yet. |

A fact that desires to impregnate everyone's brains...once upon a time bronze chests were more valuable than todays superchests. You could get Bulg/Haechi/Fury from a bronze chest back in the day. Superchest isn't worth a single thought. Way too many items in the black market to make a noteworthy progress on something. You could probably dump 200 bucks for keys and pretty much get nothing in return.

If you want to be f2p, the super chest is important. As are the honor rewards
If you willing to pay. Then no.
Super chest allows for pretty darn good rewards

Def not worth grinding for. If you get it good if not then so what. All the effort is in the upgrades now. Absolutely right. There are currently 33 different types of component, so if there is a single specific item you want, the chance of hitting that same thing twice over two superchests 1/1089. So it is nice to have if you get lucky and gives You some progress on an item you actually want, but it is not something worth relying on to get an item. Better focus on royale / daily deals depending on what it is you are after. |

F2P will not grab the carrot via grinding unless this is all they do. Play the game for what it is but not for the grind. Not chasing the carrot is a sensible protest because it makes no sense in the first place. If people don't chase the carrot pix will need to adjust. |

Nope. All component bots and weps under the new economy are useless unless you are willing to invest huge amounts of money for their upgrade. I have, rusting, a new economy Pursuer, Exodus, Flux, Spark and more. Can't use them due to their upgrade time and cost. Useless. And that's what you get from the SC.

Usually takes me 20-25 days for the Super chest. In comes update 4.5, here is my progression 20 days in...  Gotta love that supply drop nerfage. My personal opinion is matches should drop more keys, honor chest should drop large amounts depending on the league. |

It depends. SC is supposed to be around 8000-9000 keys now. I feel that it's worth about 2 Gold chests. So, if grinding to get 8 or 9 Gold chests is worth 10-11 Gold chests worth of stuff to you, then it's worthwhile. I haven't seen superchest in a while, and I definitely won't now that they've dropped the supply keys, but I've gotten quite a few good things out of Gold chests.
Sure it takes a long time to upgrade new things, but they are often more useful than what you already have even at lower levels. (My level 6 Mercury is more effective than many of my level 9 or 10 old economy robots, for example.) If you get one thing and work on upgrading it, it can be worthwhile. If you try to get 20 things and upgrade them all, it's gonna suck.

It's worth it to me for the bot comps since I need newer bots. But what's not worth the grind is moving up in leagues. I gained 1k league points in a week, even during several losing streaks. Had to quit playing and miss out on a superchest this month. ? Maybe if I use key boosters I could still get it...  |

The second was the new economy, ensuring you can never upgrade your half item to full potential unless you quit your day job. The SC has basically become an extra source of silver for me now. I'm thinking it's three pronged pitch-fork! The third prong being to completely remove keys from the Supply Drops. I used to be religious about going into royale to farm more keys daily from the new 'gambling' offers, but i've all but forgotten about that set of icons/shortcuts on the entire left side of the screen.....except for one, tasks. Pretty ?fluffernutter?in sad. It's like.... Pix, you set this crap up for us and then make it pointless from the beginning or you slowly nerf it thinking you're sneaky. But its common knowledge that we check their numbers and broadcast what we find. Reddit is the same. Their metrics must be telling them what's going on and giving them some numbers that players just don't give a damn about keys anymore (unless you in silver league, maybe). Just think how long it took them to put together the worskhop or even worse the conversion part of it. Just more aspects of the game that aren't very meaningful to most of us. Who knows, there could be lots of folks out there watching the timer for the damn 'one game of silver' supply drop or putting every scent they earn into converting comps at a 5 to 1 ration for Ag millions, but I don't know any. Sorry, i got a little off topic, anyways back to OP question... No. |

If you hit the Super chest now you need to re-evaluate your life

Not even remotely worth the grind. If you hit it secondary to having fun and playing a lot, great. I’ve gotten a bunch and never came away happy or impressed.
