Big Changes To "Battle Pass" Progression System Announced - ~20% Lower XP Requirements For Levels 1-50, Quest Changes, One-Time Bonus Reward, Adjustments to Rewards Track
“people can use their energy to refine / work on the meta.”
That’s a common fallacy, people are going to play the best decks/cards, and that’s what they’re doing. It’s up to blizzard to balance the classes and play classes and styles of decks, and more importantly quit releasing so many broken or high RNG cards.

Once again: ^ This guy gets it.
They’re greasier than a used car salesman and selling as worthless a product for as an exorbitantly marked up price.
Haven’t played a game since the new season and probably won’t. LoR is proving much better.
19.0.2 Sever Hotfix - Issues with Daily & Weekly Quests, Lack of XP from Heroic Duels, Nazmani Bloodweaver, Whizbang And More!
Counting their money apparently… I started play LoR since the new season started and it’s honestly pretty sweet game so far.
My Take On The New Progression System / Battle Pass - How Bad it Really Is, How To Fix It + A Few Words About Dev / Streamer Harassment
The only way to deal with AFKers/Trolls/Grievers is to have an increasing punishment, this types of children (regardless if age…) Don’t respond to the carrot or they would not being doing what was considered wrong in the first place. I for one am all about an escalating punishment for ropers/AFKers. At the very least they’re leaving the game without just conceding and more often they’re doing it intentionally for exp or in the hopes the other person grows frustrated and concedes.

*glances around around for suspiciously for blizzard operatives* … Money, their one true God, H0lysatan.

Grifters gonna grift.
The battle pass was them officially announcing their transition from F2P to P2W.
Rewards Track Update Went Live - More Gold Instead of Packs
So in a game where like this would you rather have slightly less rewards up front (allowing you to have a competitive deck the majority of the expansion) or would you rather get more rewards later on (when they’re largely irrelevant outside of dusting)?
This is what I’ve been saying, the new reward system is shit and a money grab, but all the blizzard fan boys defend it as them doing us a favor….
Rewards Track Update - Official Statement from Game Director Ben Lee
3 legendaries out of 61, assuming you hit one out of the first ten, is pretty average, you should get ≈1 every 20 packs after the first guaranteed in first 10 packs hit. I feel you about them being absolutely jank though, there’s no middle ground, it’s either a class staple or useless.
Duels & Weekly Quests Hotfix
Or give people some new quests, seeing how they were screwed even further out rewards…
Rewards Track Update - Official Statement from Game Director Ben Lee
I feel like I’m getting less than I would normally, maybes it’s the fact that some of the rewards are packs I wouldn’t of my own accord, or maybe it’s the fact that the real payouts don’t come until way into the season when they’re of moot point. Either way, this new system is horrible and the fact they added a “battle pass” to fast track it just screams pay to win. They could of at least included it with the big pre order bundle if nothing else.
Rewards Track Update - Official Statement from Game Director Ben Lee
What does archetypes have to do with reward systems? Daily quests were the bulk of most people’s gold income (nobody should have the time to WIN 30 games every day). Blizzards greed has simply gotten out of control, instead of dialing down the power/rarity creep or making some new formats (though I’ll admit duels was a nice attempt) like pauper or extended.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if the widened out the ratios on pulls just to get people to spend more money.
Every expansion this becomes more of a pay to win game smh

That was aimed at GaoRen below me, phone deeper.
Rewards Track Update - Official Statement from Game Director Ben Lee
Completely agree, I’m thinking I’m done giving them money, I opted 83 packs this morning and got 2 jank ass legendaries. What happened to the one every 20 average? Blizzard just gets greasier and greedier.
Oh My Yogg!
Paladin: I’ll place this trap card face down!
Mage: *casts Pyroblast*
Oh My Yogg!: [Puzzle Box of Yogg-Saron] FTFY!
Paladin: (┛ಠ_ಠ)┛彡┻━┻
Mage: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Blizzard: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
*Tears up* (Starts slow clap)
Yet people will defend this greed and Hearthstones mis-advertising as F2P.
Blizzard turned a once fun, affordable game, into a stale grind of buying virtual pull tabs that you can’t even redeem.
I started playing LoR and have been enjoying the experience, I suggest others do the same if they’re unhappy with what’s become of the game.
