I just came back today after years away and I have thousands of gems but I don't see any cool duo clothes or really anything to buy with my leftover gems, am I missing something? Did they remove all the duo outfits and stuff to buy with gems?

Thanks

Gems are just a premium currency designed to make you pay for duo.

Challenges, power-ups, streak-freezes etc.. all cost gems. The goal is that you spend on boosts and stuff, and then when you miss your streak and you're out of gems, you can either drop you streak or pay for gems. You'd be surprised how many people pay for gems.

I've been on duo almost a year, never missed a streak and have not needed to bother with gems at all.
