@ratabboypda you made perfect with the picture.
They wanted it to be understood that my concern is that the game continues to live and grow and we continue to have fun not generating or accusing anyone.
personally I try to contribute in what I can and help from my little place

Could just be a bug or does anyone really expect they are throwing the new troops out of HA9 before they have earned a good amount of money with them? Seriously? No way!
This is LIKELY a bug/ unintended outcome. (Can’t say for certain as I’m not staff)
It is true that this player (and probably others too) received the Troop from an in-game feature which is little used and was not the subject of Beta Testing (hence overlooked).
It is in NO way a “beta account crossover” or anything.
I have pinged staff and am waiting for their response.

If you need more information you can contact me but it would be good to know the answer of ep
From already thank you very much
I did not know that they could modify the title and the text of the post, I mean that another person could modify it I was surprised

I’m looking from top100, and I found one of them around 80-ish, but different defense setup, but red Ninja Troop with Azlar as tank! And A question mark (just like OP screenshot), so I think, I’m not yet update my game.
EDIT: okay, I’m updating now…
EDIT2: okay, after update my game to V32, I can see the question mark is Ninja Troop Sai Ninja.
Before Update:
After Update:
it has to be investigated
I am sure it will be for sure! The ninja troop portal has not yet appeared, and has not brought a single dollar to SG yet. But the update for the ninja event HAS gone live, and an HA9 turns troops into other troops. I am sure that no one thought to code HA9 not to give out ninja troops yet. Or, it could be that it is working as expected, and you should be able to. (Doubtful, but possible)

He got ninja troop from HA9 in live game.He shared retrain screenshot as well. It’s mostly a bug.
Well, boards experienced a “beta account crossover” for a long long time, so it’s no crazy at all if we suspect that.

Off-topic response to off topic & Misleading comment
Preface: I am accutely aware of the historical “crossover” you are inferring in your post.
1 – It kinda is “crazy” given how the Beta stuff is all set-up.
In the simplest explanation, Beta is all conducted on it’s own unique server… A Testers account on the beta server is (essentially) a clone of the Live account, copied/cloned at a static point in time… There is no ongoing reference or link back/forth between servers…
This cloned information is copied onto the separate independent server which houses the content being tested in beta at the time. This content is usually (in simple explanation) the next “update” to the game, with the new content downloaded & enabled.
Again, there is no “link back” to the live server at any time. The only interraction between the two is the “import” which, as above, copies the data in ONE direction only. All gameplay & testing & the like is conducted on a separate server…
Given there is only this one interraction between the two servers, in order for it to go the other way (i.e. copy info from beta → live) one of two things would need to happen. Either a) a new command is introduced (which would need to have been specifically coded to conduct that action including all the networking addresses etc…) or b) the existing interraction would have to bug-out and go in reverse… in which case, staff would have noted it in their own imports & testing.
2 – boards never had a “cross-over”, at least not in the sense you are inferring. You can read more about it if you look up “Seed RNG” or PRNG.
Anyways, the TLDR of that was that:
a) said issue which was rectified within 10 minutes of Staff actually being at work after being reported and
b) has never been seen since
c) staff stated they would investigate and deal with any individuals who had exploited the issue
3 – “long long time” is in fact false… or at least unsubstantiated so I would advise caution with what is insinuated… There is (to this date) no evidence as to how long the issue was in effect…
4 – this is wildly off-topic from this thread & I am only replying to correct the Misleading information presented.
Ultimately you are welcome to believe what you like. That’s the beauty of the interwebs.
I’m sorry to crush the conspiracy so brutally but in this case, reality does not line up with the conspiracy.

We are aware of this situation and are actively investigating. I will update this thread as soon as I know more - Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding. I personally apologize for all the confusion this has caused.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us.
Ninja Troops were never intended to be trained from the Hero Academy. Unfortunately due to a bug in our system, a very small number of players have been able to receive them from the Hero Academy Level 9.
We are working on implementing a fix that will prevent this from happening as soon as possible.
Ninja Troops can be exclusively summoned from the upcoming Ninja Troop Summon. The first Ninja Tower event starts on Wednesday, the 14th of October. You can read more about this here: [NEW EVENT] Prepare to face the Ninja Tower! 🏯.
Our sincere apologies for the issue and for the confusion this has caused!

yay ninja troops are now harder to get for everyone in the game because people were so eager to report rather than just ignore other players being lucky
