Has anyone tried out the new and improved lucky spin? With the colored tile based rewards and the 'mega prize' I wonder if its actually worth putting gems into now.

Gut feeling, probably no. In my early days I put a few k into lucky spin, and while i managed to get a Dahlia, I would not use it now. But.... i have seen a SS from a guildmate showing that system chat reported a WK player got a 26k gem payout from Lucky spin But, how much was put into it to get that out?

In the interest of science I just played Lucky Spin for the first time, pouring 2700 of my 3200 odd gems into it. So, Here's my findings:
Blue + Green tile bonuses are fairly common, the rewards are pitiful though. I only landed on 2 Purple and 1 Yellow tile total, so no bonuses from there. I won 1k gems once, 100 gems a few times, and lots of 10 gems, all of which went back into it. 3x 4*s - Pit Lord, Centaur Chief & Light Brave (meh). ~55k worth of Glory cards. Lots of free spins from the every 5 spins bonus and landing on Free Spin tiles. I agree with the general consensus and my long held opinion, despite never playing before, that it's really not worth it, even with the new additions. It is pretty fun but I won't be doing it again. My Alice Bond plan has gone up in smoke, as usual.

I know, I'm disappointed with myself but they had already gone up in smoke before today. I need to save everything I can from now until the next bond and hopefully get some bonus gems from Sky Arena/somewhere else to boost myself back up a little bit. I don't spend on the game apart from STAR now so really need to try and get a grip of not splurging gems on useless stuff.

Im in the same situation, insomuch that i do not want to go beyond STAR anymore, and therefore rely on AB profit. Trouble is IGG is tricksy when it comes to making us part with the gemzes

If you take a look at past wins, it seems that the tile prizes mostly consist of 5-star shards... so... better than before, but not stellar.

The new lucky spin's tile rewards are a sham. They try to circumvent them by having you land on the exact same tiles over and over. There were 3 tiles (2 of the same color) that I kept tripping over and over. No more lucky tiles.

That's what I was afraid would be the case. They would like you to believe that all the tiles ha e an equal chance of being landed on, like its a roulette wheel. That's NEVER been the case though. Lucky Spin has always pissed me off for that reason. Its basically similar odds of landing on the great tiles as it is pulling a great card from a booster. But it sure isn't presented that way.

The odds are much worse than boosters, based on my small test yesterday...The price is much cheaper too though, especially when you factor in Free Spins and Gem Prizes.
Boosters are still better value per Gem I think. And you can get much better rewards usually.

I pull feature cards from boosters alot. Cancer (1st booster), Taurus (3rd booster), Aqua (1st booster), x2 Dragon Lords (5 boosters). So for me i rather boosters over Spin.

Also I pulled Odin & Ocea both from 1st booster each. I always try at least 1 booster for decent cards to test my luck most times i fail though

Im sure there are others who have a better record.

I thought it would be a good idea to play with 6k gems. I thought to myself... "Surely you will get good 5* cards if you don't win jackpot".
I regret listening to that tempting devious voice in my head. Gems I was busy saving for next Alice Bond. All gone down the spinning drain. I wished I could delete the game and call it a day, such is frustrating. I never saw jackpot pop up. Not even after free spin. How is 1 supposed to win Jackpot, when it doesn't even pop up? SHAM

Just to help on sonbalins info, I too had 3k laying around. And after about between 50-70 spins, I got four four star cards, only SM was noteworthy. I got two purple runes, but one was faction rune, the second was flurry. 3000 glory, 700,000 coins, and a bunch of 2/3* runes/cards and essences.
In the end, I lit up two of the three purple tiles, but hit purple tiles roughly 6 times. Awarded blue tile prize 4-5 times, I forget exactly.
Kind of ended up with a garage sale assortment of trinkets.
I really wanted to see a purple tile prize, but any more gems spent would've dipped into my Alice bond reserve.
Hope this helps guys.
Edit*** oh, and no gold tiles were hit, or even lightly touched during the merciless senseless slaughter of 3000 innocent gems. =)
