I assume we all disagreeing the new update cost change but we were thxful about purple crystal isn't possible to buy for real money.

Just look the new offer : 550 purple crystal & 2 000 crystals for 100 € (I guess around 120$)

So now we know we're they aim to make this game going : Pay or just leave bro.
In any case this game will close in something 1 year due to the P2W way it takes. I say that cause Blood Brothers one of my most invested time and money game gone on same way : the good cards was only available in spending more and more and more and more money as far the time past. 1 year after the grow of asking money the game announced it close.

I'm sad cuz the game is cool but really bad development.
Dev really don't hear us. We ask for stop the tie break u get more harder to get in top 100 (1 lose = out of top 150 in platinum)
We ask for more balanced matchmaking and we met Koth and Chandra on **** (we can only play black white and blue pw) and met QB deck opponent on vehicles event.
We ask for stop getting that much dupe and low drops rare mythic rate and we get a lvl invite higher P2W that ask us to pay even just to enter an event that doesn't even give us same reward as free enter event....

It's smell the end dude. Itso really smell the end...

    I'm not impressed with the "Elite Bundle". What they've done is introduced some really powerful cards, built them up in value by making them take forever to earn by playing the game, then brazenly allow direct 100 USD purchase from the store. Right now that bundle will allow you to gamble for a Masterpiece. Emphasis on the word "gamble", which is considered negative in a social atmosphere.

    Honestly, I thought Mana gems would only be obtainable through gameplay. I have the ability to purchase things directly but I was actually more interested in having to build them up over time. Now they are basically just overpriced crystals.

    $99 for 550 jewels and 2000 crystals? I'm at a loss. Despite the uproar regarding price jacking, and a dev that is completely out of touch with the player base, this is the answer? Just, wow. This is bordermine comical l, it was nice playing with you all.

    I am sorry for the negative tone, but when my disposable income becomes repeatedly disposed of with out reward and little consideration is given to the voice of a large portion of the community, it is hard to be excited about the game.

    1. Matchmaking in events - not fixed.

    2. Duplicate conversion - insulting, I can get 1200 runes for 15 minutes of QB grinding, but takes a WEE BIT MORE EFFORT to get a mythic in the first place

    3. Inflation of in game currency - not sustainable

    4. Duplicate frequency - this is well known and very frustrating. I have won/pulled 8 AER mythics, and have 3 in my collection to show for it [frustrating].

    5. Lack of QA - Very apparent especially when you have whole community of players that would participate. Make event's first run free, no rewards, just announced them as test run, we would appreciate the ability to help keep this game running smoothly. May be randomly recruit players and have them be rewarded for helping, rather than dangling 100 free crystals in front of them to get us to "try the event, let us know what you think." I would be excited if there was a lottery to test an event and got picked. I am less excited when the event is bugged and discord and frustration abound. TEST THESE WITH REAL PLAYERS NOT JUST IN A CONTROLLED TEST ENVIRONMENT.

    I will NOT spend money for what I have experienced frequently before. This is a chance for devs to really respond positively to the player base, please don't drop the ball!

    Loved that Lake's stated defense for low accrual rate of jewels was that they wanted to keep the masterpieces very rare to there weren't many in the player pool to control power creep and complexity. And then they let you buy a lottery ticket for one for $100.

    What he clearly meant was, "we want to keep masterpieces in the hands of our players who spend the most money and then people who don't spend that kind of money will see them every now and then and realize their sins." Except they overestimated initially how much whales are willing to spend on the game and had to audible to this new $100 for a lottery approach.
