Just reached Lvl 150 and I am around 7.2k gold right now. Still a new record for gold grinded. Even after purchasing the miniset because I could not let that deal pass. Been playing a little more this week because of a personal goal. But that did not make that much of a difference. Maybe I would be at 6.9k gold without that extra time. Also this extra playtime is finishing tomorrow if I am able to achive my goal as intended.
I am also hoarding my extra classsic packs because reasons. I might have saved a bit more if I did not, (I am too much of a collector so I only dust copies that wont be used. Will still keep a regular and a golden copy of the same legendary no problem) wich caused me to open some more packs than expected for a final craft.
Pretty much still satisfied with my results.
Edit: Also still lots of Achivement xp I could get if I tried harded, might get some more in 2 days)
Right now it feels really good, even after spending 2k gold in the miniset I am at about 7k right now not playing that much every day. Also I am quite happy with my Darkmoon Faire collection so I will not spend any more gold in it. I think i will open about 85-90 packs when next expansion launches without spending a penny. Up until this last week (when I decided I wanted demon hunter to reach lvl 60 before the core set comes out, so i started doing a lvl a day) I have played mostly the dailys and then only with friends (I am not that much into ranked, but been playing it more now as I think I get more Hero XP that way)
I would love to see all Galakrond cards on their original state.
Also I would love Dino Tamer Brann and Dragon Queen Alexstrasza back (Not the part were she could discover herself, that is a nono)
Then, Arcane Golem, Powerword:Shield, Warsong Commander (I do not think patreon warrior would be that bad now) and maybe Ironbeak owl (in case it does not come back to standar)
Wow, this numbers really surprised me. A friend told me yesterday "Is classic mode a good call? Can they even spread the playerbase even more?" To wich I responded "They surelly still can" but I would not have believed that many players still played.
I actually love their fun factor. Not all of them are Hard Hitters, but most seem fun as f... Have 17 packs to open, will do after buying so I get more missing legs and epics.
First of all sorry about My English. I AM fighting against an autocorrected spanish keyboard On the phone.

Hi! Just wanted to Say I totally agree about dust values. 3:1, 2.5:1 or 2:1 would be much healthier butI think epic and Legendary ratios are fine Now that we have the no dupes rule (I would not see a 30 pack pity timer as sth Bad for legendaries through)
Legendaries should be rare (epics too) to give players long term goals. Personally I feel getting that Legendary You really wanted, either On a pack or crafting it and playing it feels much better than Any Golden portrait and making them too common could take away from the players sense of excitement when you get one. So it can be difficult to make them much more common.
I have spent this whole year as a F2P player (RIP Character portraits I really wanted) because I wanted to experience how the Game is going for this kind of players. And right Now, I feel My collection is around the value it used to have before when I got a preorder with dupes in the mix. Also I have saved gold and packs for next expansión and miniset. Right Now I AM at 17 darkmoon packs and 6300 gold (I Will spend 2000 in the miniset in the end) . I believe I Will be able to Buy around 70 packs for next expansión (and then Buy some more until I AM satisfied with My collection). And also feel satisfied with My darkmoon collection.
To make it shorter. I think the Game is much more F2P friendly than before but a bit more could be Made about the dust system. This actions should not be overdone, or the Game would not be lucrative or rewarding and it would just die.
Great speculations! Hope we get some Illidan/Malfurion cards, that would be excelent.
And that impurity concept is also great, thanks for sharing the lore behind this character. I actually did not know about him.
Edit: I really hope maneagery gets some more love. Really liked playing Nzoth and Ysharj on maneagery, even if it is not that effective.
Also finally, just want to tell the author I found a little typo (I think it is written like that.) When you mention Elise the Enlightened, you wrote Dooms of Terror, when it is Tombs of Terror.
May be late, but you do not need redeemed pariah to be 10/10, just have 10 attack. You can use temporary buffs and surrender (if you end your turn they get away before counting) or some permanent neutral minion attack buffs and then end your turn
Then 16 damage with shaman... For this you can just use doom hammer and rockbitter axe (that was the name of the "give a friendly character 3 attack this turn card?) or even the new "deal 3 dmg get 3 attack card".
Sorry for my english. I have just woke up from a good nap and english is not my native languaje, on top of moving to spain were they dont really use english at all (if they do, they do not use it well) so it is getting worse every day.
Just want to report my progress. Been playing in a really casual way. Did some achivements but most of them are still incomplete as I lack the needed cards. Did some without them in duels (the totem buff one) or with random generation (guess the weight is halfway done) and I know I did some more that way.
Right now I am 2400 XP away from reaching level 50, so I expect to get 50 daily gold after that till the next expansion launches.
Right now I am at 11 packs and 4500 gold for the miniset (wich I will buy until I get every new common and rare after opening the initial 11 packs.) Still I feel I am now getting quite a lot more than before (More of a meme deck player here, so the "free" xp for playing ranked is more than the daily gold I got for wins most of the times. So yeah... Pretty happy right now with my results.
I really agree with you. I just do not think the format the track is presented right now is perfect.
Take a look at Pokemon TCG Online (Not the amount of free resources it gives, wich is more, but they also get more expansions) but how you get something. Even 5 gold (translating to hearthstone numbers for just playing) all the time.
I made the numbers in a comment for a hearthstone mathematician video, but the important part is.
You have Login rewards, Daily Quests wich you can select out of 3, Rewards for wining everyday (up to 11 wins, then is just a little "gold" per win), a 21 day, reward track concept (wich nets you more "xp" if you are in a streak, the higher it is). Tournaments that give you nice rewards for wining (you have to spen tournament tickets to enter too) and a Theme deck format (hi there whizbang!)
Basically I think that, without changing any numbers on the free resources you get, if every reward was given faster and in a smaller amount, people would be much happier with it.
Personally I do not dislike the new system at all. Had some complaints about the last levels having packs but well. I feel that aproach would be better for most people in general, and much less people would hate it.
JUSTICE!
Does anyone know if old jaraxxus stays as it is and we get the new one?

Incredible news! Been playing it every now and then, and really enjoy it. Getting this much will be awesome

I believe the same as I "Collector's Temptation"
Got a legendary, a golden epic, an epic and a golden rare on my last pack. So.... That was worth it...
Just reached lvl 100! Happy with my earning so far doing dailies and Weeklys

You should keep it and disenchant it after rotation. That way you get 1600 from HoF + 400 for disenchantin
