Lets also point out real life cards have value and may retain a real currency value even after a long time but in hearthstone as a ccg you dont have the option of trading cards or getting a monetary value from them so the comparison of hearthstone to real life tcg's may prove difficult and not appropriate.

 If you have physical Magic cards that are worth anything to sell, you have probably spend literally thousands of dollars per year to collect it.

No one has ever had to spend that much on Hearthstone. It doesn't cost anywhere close to a thousand dollars per year to maintain a complete collection.

Not that great they release this already shortly (one month) after expansion hits, I mean come on, how would free players even be able to collect enough Gold for this ? I have just gathered 5k which will pretty much entirely go into DoD. 

 Why would you even think Blizzard wants to help anyone continue to be a free player?

Their biggest wish is to convert all free players into paying customers. This is not a secret.
