Why should I spend money on this game if you’re just going to make “pauper” objectives?

Mandatory pauper PVP events like commoners cup? Super fun! Great idea! Interesting challenge. More of this please.

Optional pauper in PVP? Terrible. No fun. Unfair. Do not want to play.

Pauper secondaries in PVE? Why? Why would you discourage players from playing with their shiny cards? Do you want me to assign even lower a value to the pixels you provide?

I am the opposite of motivated to spend money on this game. I have swung so far the other direction that I’m going to do whatever I can to help people succeed without spending money on this game.

Honestly, it won’t be a big change for me but I will find a way to do whatever it is that I do just a little bit more. I want you to know that my success is in spite of you and not because of you.

    Be glad you're not wasting money then

    @Sarah - you have a valid point, which I agree with. I think it is very annoying to be steamrolled by a mythic heavy deck while you have tried to make a coherent pauper deck.

    I just think the way you express your view is beginning to feel like, you’re turning into a “angry old lady”. :D:#

    I will acknowledge that I have seen quite a few post that have provoked you so maybe it is just a result of you being defensive.

    Anyway, I like your constructive critique, so hopefully you will not take this the wrong way.

    “beginning to feel like?” 🙄

    @Tremayne I think I’ve actually been pretty consistent but I do take your point and appreciate the pep talk 🙂

    @Sarah - thank you for being such a good sport. I feared that my message could be misunderstood. It can be difficult to communicate across language and cultural barriers.

    This is a post I completely agree with. In PVE it's no fun and in PVP (if optional) it is likely a bad experience. Let us wreck bosses with everything we got and make the PVP equal.

    Right, and who wants to sit around waiting to take 80 or more damage or win with only 30 hp left or something like that and those kinds of objectives? With as much life as we already waste on this game, we should be able to breeze through it if we can to have some sort of time left in our day for other real life things and not risk being one false move or an OP Greg away from losing after all that.
