You can win this game without spending money; it helps but it is not main factor. I play for quite a few worlds but I only invested some in this one (except for one time 5e top up for gwendoline on en22 I think)
These are way more important then crowns:
Resource Management < Strategy = Knowledge of the game < Time spent online
How do you possibly expect a player who does not buy crowns to compete with a crown buyer?
