If someone has millions of runes, rest assured that they did play an appropriate number of matches and spent as many obsessive hours in order to get to that point. There are even veterans who have to gather the runes for each PW as they get them.That being said, I do get that it is a very daunting prospect for new players to look at all those PWs and then realise how much time it will take to get all of them to good levels. Something must be done so that newbies aren't discouraged to the point of just giving up on the game.

Then came crystals. Then came purple crystals. Then orbs. The game is bloated with currencies that do different things. It's the way of the f2p game to introduce new currencies devaluing the old ones. Mana runes are now in a weird spot where they only have one purpose. You either have too many or too few and there is no way to grind for them.The experience of lvling planes walkers seems pointless to me. It was fun the first two times, then it became a chore. Getting a new planeswalker but not being able to use them in any events because you can't get the runes to level them up is so annoying.The fun of the game is all about the cards and deck building./rant
