2 = extra electrum https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=24127.msg308203#msg308203

Not a big idea, just something that annoys me.

Now you only get 5 extra coins if the first 2 cards are the same, but not if the last two are. I propose to make it so that you get 5 extra  :electrum if the first OR last 2 cards are the same.
Why? because it's just not fair (lol) that only the first 2 cards get you extra electrum and not the last two. Will this change a lot? No, but it will help with grinding ai3/t50/lvl5.

Please discuss this.

It depends on what you are being rewarded for. If it's for almost getting 3 of a kind, it should stay as it is. If it's for getting 2 of a kind, it should be if 2 out of the 3 match, regardless of position. I don't feel strongly either way, just depends on the goal.

It's for 2 of a kind.

I would rather see more Electrum based on what your winning electrum value was.  It is kind of laughable going through a lvl 5 and getting 240+ electrum to get 5 for a matching pair.  Maybe 10%, with minimum cap of 5 and max cap of 20?

I don't know what the others would think about this but you usually kill lvl5's for cards and not for electrum. The real use is with ai3/t50, and EM= 40/60 coins. 6 isn't much more then 5.
Besides 20 is too much IMO.

I play ai5 mainly for electrum.  Elemental master + 500 HP = 280, average 5 minutes per match.  That's 1-2 upped cards an hour, depending on how lucky I am.  Not counting card rolls.

Lets see... Up to 4 (or was it 5? brain fart) different cards are what appear in the spinner. Right now the minimum chance to get the 5 :electrum is 6.25%. If we followed the suggestion that it can be the final 2, it raises the chance to 12.11% which isnt bad. However, if we change it so that it can be any 2 then it gets sorta ridiculous at a 75.25% chance of it happening.

I disapprove.
The 5 extra electrum is because you think you have a chance at winning a card for two draws, but then realize you have not won a card. If your last two or first and last cards match, but the other one does not, you will have realized you didn not have a chance of winning a card after seeing the second card. There would be no need for a consolation because your hopes had not gotten as high. Also, people have the good habit of leaving the game once their first two cards on their last spin do not match. They would have to reverse that habit if this idea was implemented.
Somehow still around, somewhat
