3.4 Speculation

Given the choices made in 3.2 and now 3.3, what will they ruin next!?

My vote is Coalitions.

Everyone for themselves!

    I don't know if that's what they'll ruin next, but they sure seem to be drifting away from coalitions more and more. The unsettling lack of coalition events attests to that.

    Yeah it's clear to me that coalition isn't a priority. In fact I believe they are trying to switch from this coalition based game to something else. Probably when seasons come, coalitions will become totally irrelevant. 

    We will need to wait and see, but if that turns out to be true, they will achieve something really incredible, broking every foundation of the game. Maybe this new game they will create appeals more to new players, but I can guarantee most of current player base will be gone.

    I'll leave in that case. That's for sure. Or at least transit to extremly casual. This also affects all of the most motivated players in "my" coalition family that raised their concerns about the lack of coalition events.

    The community is a key strength of this game, catching new players and support them like the devs aren't able to. Without my Slack group, I'd have lost interest long ago.


    My bet is.. Phew. They'll get rid of events with individual placements. Everyone gets the same trophy for participation.

    Up the price of packs and then charge admission for every event.

    I'd rather take bets on how fast we get a 3.4 (or 3.3.1 or whatever) to undo the timer nonsense.

    Mythics only in PPs, rares only in super packs and PPs ^^

    Coalition max 10 members, no coalition rewards in events to "avoid an unfair advantage"

    4 hour charge times on all events, 2 hours on rotgp ;) 

    To "make it more like paper", you can only match gems of a certain colour if you cast a basic land support of that colour, with 1 shield

    I predict a new currency to add to the jumble of existing currencies. These could be called some garbage name like “Saphie Stars” or something.

    And they can only be obtained by purchase.

    But the 3.5 update... Oh! That’s going to all make sense because these blue balls will be the only way to obtain masterpieces. So best to start rounding those up...

    @Froggy - sadly the “sapphire Stars” can only be used to purchase ultra-ultra rare cards that are no better than weak common cards. Just to mess with the player who must have every card in a set. 🤨

    Probably a month since doing a rollback is impossible at this point - damn them merges.  :D

    I am pretty sure that they will release a new Planeswalker with a third ability that will disable the Loop Prevention System timer until the end of turn  o:)

    Ha, thanks.  Normally this is where I'd say "I'll be here all week" but maybe we should wait and see.

    But, with all events, you can get unlimited extra turns by:

    1. Becoming a VIP user for a monthly fee (for the rich)

    2.  Paying a "small" fee per charge (for the middle class)

    3. Watching advertisements (for the proleteriat)

    One month thereafter, a new coalition will have won all the events.  Their name: The1%

    We'd better keep quiet, someone might get ideas.

    There are two scenarios I can see playing out:
    1. None of us will know if we speculated correctly because we'll have quit playing by then.
    2. There never will be a 3.4 because the game will die that quickly post-3.3

    A lot of the suggestions in this thread would probably work really well if we just took the time to understand them.


    ... Do you think a video would help with that?
