1000XP/quest makes more sense. There are a few 1500XP ones that will factor in and you can always reroll to 1000 if you get 800. There are way, way more 1000s than 800s. You're including the new 1350 gold in the 6900? It's reasonable to assume people will get some achievements XP. Almost all of the 20,000+ XP from Duels comes from just winning 3, 4, 5, games etc. The free legendary and epic are part of the equation too.
Agree that requiring 7 wins in ranked is jarring to casual players not in line with their messaging.
Believe me I agree 100% that Hearthstone is exorbitantly expensive. I've thrown more money down the Blizzard hole than I will ever fully tell anyone most likely. I do hope that pressure from this outcry will make a difference. I just don't agree with the arguments stating that the the current rewards track is less rewarding for the average player, especially after the changes they just talked about and knowing that XP will be added from events. (We got stuff from events before but I can't remember what. I know you have to factor that in.) The math just doesn't lie, assuming XP per hour of actual play time (not queuing) is 400 or close to that. Maybe someone that plays 5 hours a day is worse off but someone that plays 3 hours a day is fine.
Imagine trying to have fun, but your opponent plays Priest.
Priest doesn’t need a rework, it needs to be removed from the fucking game. Priest literally promotes the most unfun and boring play in any game I have ever seen. I literally want to quit playing just because I have a chance to see Anduin’s stupid fucking face on the other side. I should probably quit while I’m ahead
Both that Totem Shaman and Deathrattle secret hunter look so fun! Glad I have most of those cards, really trying not to craft anything yet, the struggle is real xD
Can I just say I HATE the From the Swamp passive treasure? Just trying to play Elemental Mage and BOOM! a ton of Bloated Zombies come out of nowhere and pound me into the ground. I'm glad they're fixing that. Also, I'm somewhat annoyed at Discolock Willow players, ESPECIALLY ones with Killmox, the Banished One. Just going on my way and BAM! Killmox arrives, heals Willow back to full, and murders me the turn after. I also don't get that you need cards to unlock the Hero Powers and stuff.
I think Phaoris's blade will still be tier S. when you have that thing equipped it just turns the game on its head. Opponent really can't play any small minions what so ever or the game quickly spirals out of control.
I've been playing almost every day since the new system's launch, for about 3-4 hours, and I'm only at Rank 21. My quest trays are constantly empty after the first two days, I think I finished the weekly quests that quick. I think they need to provide more quests instead of just giving one daily, especially for players who manage to finish everything quickly.
While I appreciate the frontloaded rewards, they're just not enough, and the extremely slow progress of leveling up is just really demotivating. The only thing keeping me going right now is my quest to get the 1000-win portraits for Warrior (901 wins) and Demon Hunter (723); other than that, playing for little reward other than fun seems pretty bad. I mean, fun is good, but I've invested heavily in this game so I expect a bit more in return.
That sounds pretty miserable. How much un-fun would you have to have before you considered trying one of the other games featured on this site?
I played Battlegrounds quite a bit before, but I grew tired of it eventually. It just felt boring. Duels is much better, though after seeing the pitiful rewards you'll get even after 12 wins (check out RDU's video when he opened his rewards), I don't feel as inclined to try it.
Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy playing ranked. Right now my goal of getting those 1,000-win portraits for Warrior and DH is enough to keep me playing. My only wish is for the rewards to be better eventually, which I think they will be.
Would rather just see a hard nerf on all treasures since they dictate the game so hard vs what you've been collecting / trying to build towards from the start. For instance, rogue with the turtle generation and Band Of Bees is a battlecry poisonous shot every turn. It going from rare to ultra rare will still awful when you run into it.

I like that Renolock list, but I removed Eater of Secrets because there's already a Kezan Mystic. I know there are a lot of Secret Mages and Hunters, but I don't like two secret hate cards.
Yeah, but they re-released her for free in the shop when they changed the in-game shop to include Wild content. Which I want to say was around Dec 10, 2019. And I think they may have even put her back in the shop between then and now as well. So most people who didn't just join in the last 5 or 6 months should have her. Unless they took a long break from the game or ignored the previous free offering in the shop.

Same here. Thankfully it´s just a visual bug as Kansas said. Sometimes you just need to restart the game to see the progress which really sucks :/
