Honestly hangar showdown is fucking stupid. Whose dumbass idea was it to bar most of the resources we could be rewarded from this behind an a-coins paywall? At least with tournaments your rewards were based on performance and you could do those entirely free any maybe even do well playing them entirely free if you got in towards the end of tournaments.

Hangar showdown is a competition sort of but all your resources are earned. Except everyone's spending an indefinite amount of a-coins, the most valuable resource IN THE GAME! And obviously if you're worse at the game you're spending more a-coins than skilled players and you NEED those for upgrades and a lot of the mechs and weapons you'll want to get going through gear hub.
