Since this dragon came out, I have earned enough gems to purchase two of them straight out. Once I saw how difficult it was to breed, and I noticed how relatively inexpensive it was to purchase, it seemed obvious to me that they planned it that way and my plan then was to save up enough gems to simply buy one, which is exactly what I did. Amazingly enough, just before I had enough gems to buy it, I managed to breed one. but at that point, I was already commited to the purchse so i fortunately ended up with a pair. That was 150 gems ago. i could have easily purchased both if i needed to in the time Backflip has allowed.

I'm level 40 w/ gifting tree and fairly dependable friends. i also have a level 18 Panlong and level 18 Paper, which help ensure I almost always get 5 Gems at the Colosseum. But I'd guess most players could have gotten the 130 gems neccessary in the time allowed.

The rules of strategy keep changing. It is one of the many ways Backflip has kept this game interesting.
