Why bother: coin boosters cost 300 energy for 1 day. This can give you up to 30 extra coins a day (based on 30 games a day, my personal absolute max before my brain explodes). This can be used to get 3 enamorocks. If sold on AH, enamorocks can get you around 850+ crowns each, or 10+ energy. To sum it up, if you're going to use extra coins to get crowns, you'll get 10 times less than you'll pay.

Suggestions on balancing Coin Booster price/performance ratio without breaking existing system:
1. Lower Krogmo Coin Booster price.
They're a little hard on the wallet at 300 energy each. Make them 50 energy, not good enough to be profitable, but cheap enough to buy a couple.

2. Increase amount of coins given. Give 3-5 extra coins, for example, but limit to 1-3 coin boosters at the same time. Keep the 300 E price.

3. Make them last!!! 1 day isn't nearly enough to make any use of it. Possible variants include 1 week long coin booster and 1 month long coin booster. 1 week would be priced at 300 energy, 1 month - 1.000 energy.

Mix 2 and 3 and you'll have a much more attractive package. I'll certainly buy one. Or few.

You can only play 30 games a day? Heh. I guess you haven't undergone the human-to-computer integration yet.

Blast network games take 5

Blast network games take 5 minutes + 30 seconds preparation + typically up to 5 minutes waiting time (sometimes more).
If lucky, that could be 3-4 hours, if not, 30 games will take 6+ hours. I simply cannot play longer than that.

30 games will take 6+ hours

(6 * 60) / 30 = 12

The average time for a game including transfer time, preparation and waiting is 6 minutes, not twelve.
12 minutes would be assuming you're waiting 5 minutes after every game for players to sign up. What are you playing? Tier 1 Lockdown? In Tier 3 Lockdown there is nearly never a longer than 5 minute waiting time, and waits come up only after every 10 or so games.

I only play blast network and

I only play blast network and I have to wait 3-30 minutes between games, typically. Sometimes there are enough players to play 3-5 games in a row with a small pause, but thats rare.

I do not like lockdown. I am very bad at it and being there doesn't help my team one bit, so I prefer Blast Network, where I can make a difference.
