Talk simplicity when you have reached 10k mmr. There is a lot more strategy to the mode than you give it credit for.

I have.   All that happens at 10k is first place is more 1 in 8.  Under 5k a good player can get first place almost every match.    

I would maybe more equate it to those mobile games that just require you to tap the screen, but they keep giving you rewards constantly like you are accomplishing something other than spending time with the app open.

I know, reductive since this game is a bit more than that.   But you are likely to get first place a lot with even a minimal skill level of the mode, giving you that dopamine rush.

Having said that, I um utterly bored of every other mode in this game.  

For those of us that have been playing hearthstone from the start it is really just an addiction that has kept us around this long.

I play battlegrounds very sporatically.    I certainly don't condemn it.  It's charming for all it's simplicity.
