In my opinion, it would be better if 1st level of Rewards Track gave +1 additional hero for those who paid and level 3rd another additional hero but this time for free. I don't know just saying from my point of view.
Blizzard as we knew it is dead at least 4 years ago (if not more). I think things will get only worst, also because it seems the Microsoft is very interested in Activision Blizzard for the mobile games.
I can only imagine Activision Blizzard as a B series company specialized in mobile. Furthermore, I cannot see any high quality game in the future, also because, with numbers in our hand, how long is since Blizzard developed the last high quality game? So, there is clearly no hope. They want probably become a premium company in mobile. That's it. Anyway, we can argue how good this might be in future, because, with the cloud, you can already play Triple A on mobile.
I was surprised by this. I thought that purchasing the $80 Mega Bundle for Nathria secured me having the option of 4 heroes at least until the next set. This was really disappointing to me…

Battleground perks was not included in the mega bundle this year - it did previously. They just let you continue to use it for a couple months until they rolled out this new system.
So they just made Battlegrounds Pay2Win. I'm not gonna pay 15 euro just to get the same amount of hero options as paying players. I'm out. Pity, because I really did love the mode and didn't mind paying 1500 Gold for the Battlegrounds perks.

I have been playing Battlegrounds for a long time now... and until a couple weeks ago, without paying a cent to do so. I finally broke down and spent $5 on an animation. That's $5 for a couple of years worth of playtime. That's not a sustainable business model.
So while I do want to continue to play for free, I totally get it. Battlegrounds the only mode I play and I stopped spending any money on cards or anything in Hearthstone. I am sure I am not alone.
I now have a choice to either play for free or pay far less than I used to on cards for many hours of playtime in a game mode I enjoy.
To be fair, it was absultely free to play bg's for exclysive players. A lit of gold to spare. Now with a bit of an investment you get a competitive advantage
Sign up for Google Rewards. It pays you to answer a stupid 10 second question each day. I usually end up with about $15 sometime during the season. It may not pay in full for something, but $5 for the bg perks or a mini set isnt bad.
I actually defended them for doing this at first because I assumed the BG rewards track would only be 5 bucks, but hoooooly shit, 15+ dollars?????? Thats indefensible.
Oh, really? I play standard and wild without any money being spent, reaching legend every month with no problems at all.
Its possible to play without spending anything. But you have to play a lot. It also helps if you have been playing a long time and are conservative with your resources. I'm more of a budget player. I use Google Rewards to lower the price of the mini set to $5 or less. I play wild mostly and usually have enough to buy 120-140 packs with gold at release time.
the only way to get access to 4 heroes selection is with runes and the only way to get runes is with money
or am i missing something ?
Correct!
Im happy that I "got rid" of my HS account in time
That's right, also new rewards track was added making it pretty much a mobile game now.

It actually should, as you paid for it, too.
Not very fair from Blizz.

Last time i paid for bundle with N'zoth Hero. Not gonna do it anymore.
Oh! Good to know. I stand corrected.

Bro it's $15 it's really not a big deal.

Nowhere near the price of standard.

Dust does not burn a hole in the jar. Be careful what you craft, especially before and right after a rotation.
