CHRISTMAS IN APRIL

Based on everything I've read on Twitter and other forums, it seems the next big update in Clash Royale is coming in April. I, like many, was hoping for March, but something Seth said alluded to the fact that we have to wait an additional month.
Don't these people realise I'm old and could die at any time?
Assuming I make it to April, here is my wish list for the update:
QUALITY OF LIFE
Please give me 10 deck slots. The game is now 4 years old. A larger number of people are closer to having a maxed account. These people have the versatility to experiment a little more on ladder. They need these slots instead of trying to remember various decks. I just had breakfast 15 minutes ago and I've already forgotten what I ate. How am I supposed to remember all the decks I can't play?
In the past, whenever I played a ladder game, my trophy count would update within the clan stats. The stopped about a year ago and has never been fixed. Sometimes I will look at Lil' Gramps' trophies and say something like, "OMG, you suck. You're only on 6000". Then he will tell me to click on his profile and it's actually 6600.
The star points system is fine but the skins suck. I can spend 25,000 star points on a miner but my flashy new card basically looks the same. Let me do things like make my Skeletons orange or put a pink tutu on my Bowler. If this is an issue in terms of confusing the opponent, then let these changes only appear visible to me. Maybe even have it a choice, much like how we have an on/off setting for emotes.
I'm a millionaire. I currently have almost 3m in gold, but nothing to spend it on. I've paid my dues. My spending on CR has enabled Seth to buy a new swimming pool. It is time to give back, Supercell, and let people like me spend my gold on gems or Pass Royale. Even if it costs one million gold to get a pass, it's still something for my effort.
GAME CHANGES
2v2 Challenges - In his recent interview with KFC, Drew spoke about the difficulties with implementing a 2v2 ladder, but surely a 2v2 GC is nowhere near as tough? At 50 gems per player, I believe people would flock to play it. Imagine the fun. People hooking up on discord voice chat to communicate etc This is what I want more than anything else, April Santa.
Clan Wars - When clan wars were first introduced, half my clan watched my final battle. Prior to going in, we discussed deck prep and practised battles. I was nervous as hell and didn't want to let anybody down. Now it's meh. Clan wars are a chore. Whatever change is made, it needs to be based around rekindling the feelings I talked about above.
Content Creators tab - I have discussed this in depth in a previous blog.
For my last wish, surprise me, Supercell. Please don't make it socks and undies again.
