I dont understand. Arena has the same rewards as before as far as I know. Getting gold to have some backup resources for it is easy, especially at the start of the reward track.

If you are a good player, you can still go infinite, just like in the old system.

 it must be a really bad thing to be someone like you in real life. I don't understand this ignoble thing in defend white privilegies, more monetary scams and already rich ppl. I don't understand ppl that defend bosses and savage capitalist systems...I really don't understand if this is some sort of lack of character and ppl like you don't actually believe the own shit but still like to defend it like a Shiny golden Troll online.
I mean, if there's for real ppl out there defending this system they really need to see a professional of some sort, something is really wrong.
This new system is worse than Russia Agressive Capitalism from 90's

white privilegies LOL. Black lives matter?

Usually I would have saved 1k gold for arena if i wanted to play it. Eventually I would lose all of those investment convert into current expansions packs. If u spent all of your gold buying raw packs before, then u should save gold for next xpac cycle already.

 Whats with you always insulting people?

I would say that arena is in a better state than before

Before you did not benefit from the 10 gold per 3 wins, now you get xp (300 xp per hour by my estimation).

As a new player you shoukd definately NOT play arena to grind packs. How does it make sense? A new player will barely get to 3 wins. How is this a good advise?

Spot on. For arena to have any chance of being profitable, you need to have a significant amount of experience and ability, both at drafting and playing your deck.

New players going to get eaten alive in arena, getting a pack and a pittance for their 150g, rather than one and a half packs just from spending the gold.

With all due respect, that's a load of BS.  I've played since closed beta.  I've logged thousands of games.  Am I some perfect, flawless golden god of a player?  No.  But I've watched thousands of hours of the game, I've played thousands of hours of the game, I've read hundreds of hours of posts and discussion on what to do.. and make no doubt about it, I've got serious flaws, I trade too much, I'm a control focused player, I also play too fast and make a handful of mistakes I wouldn't make if I had just THOUGHT for an extra 5 seconds before grabbing the wrong card, misunderstanding the card I'm playing (or just mistaking it for a similar looking one) .. BUT.. for 5 years my Arena average would go between 5.3 and 6.5 wins per run over the course of a few months..  and right now, it's sitting at 3.1 for the last 2 years.

People were screeching for parity for some reason, well now you got it.  And it sucks.  Welcome to 50 gold and 30 dust a run for all but the top 1% of players..  That's not just "good" that's top level.  If you take all the people that play daily, you probably have to be in the top 0.1% to make gold off the arena.. and that's the DAILY players,..

Arena doesn't get played much because it costs resources (gold) to play.

But if you make it free, even without rewards, then the people who enjoy Limited formats will ONLY play Arena and not invest money into the game.

The solution is to improve rewards. Make it 5 or more wins to break even on investment instead of 7, for example.

If Arena adds a MMR & or "Free" change it will be dead to most of the current Core of Players imo.

I Agree they really need to improve the rewards for 5Wins to 11wins?
