With shock a lock, even though the cards can sometimes be a challenge to get flipped over in time, there are enough of the different pieces to ensure that you can get what you need to make the pipe.
With Catch a key, half the time the numbers you need don't even generate. I can't count the number of times I've sat waiting for a 2 or a 3, and watched the timer run down to nothing while all the other numbers generated but not the number I needed.
please, either fix catch a key or get rid of it. it's made opening silver chests a distasteful, disappointing activity.
Catch a Key can be a lot more difficult if the RNG isn't cooperating. There are times I have to keep the space bar pressed down almost constantly and just focus on catching clocks. If you can master that, you can win most of them. Don't worry about running into an extra key or two, but definitely avoid the bombs (game over) while you're speeding things up.

Not always. If you are waiting for a key, catch some clocks while your at it. The point of silver chests is to have fun winning a small amount of gold, and feeling good about yourself, not getting gold itself. If you wanted gold, sell extra items at the Bazaar or buy some straight up from the Crown shop.
Back on topic, this situation has rarely happened to me. You have a fair amount of time to catch all the keys you need. Some times you only need all of one type of key, so this changes the ratio of winning or not. Hope this helped,
