There has been so much hate on Mercenaries and its baffling to be that the major complaint is about the bundles or the "pay2win" aspect. Like, for real, you know that you can play hearthstone without spending a single dollar (or by buying those welcome bundle ecc... For very cheap), like, both 3 game modes are free, you don't have to buy the Mercenaries bundles ro play it, heck they are even gonna give you free units to start with. If your main argument is FOMO than you are just weak and you can't complain about feeding your own addiction; if your main complaint is "it's pay2win" firstly, you don't knoe that, the mode isn't out yet, secondly, sometimes win doesn't equal fun and sometimes you wanna have fun, heck I even encountered some people who said that Battlegrounds is pay2win since you get 2 more choices... That's just delusional, unless you're a streamer why would you care, it's a fun mode anyway. As for Mercenaries, they said that they are gonna try to balance the PvP (which is also not thr main mode) around you, which means that even if it's pay2win you'll likely not go against someone who's stronger than you because he payed more; as for the main PvE part, what's the point in spending money to just steamroll your way through, where is the fun in that? At thay point is just winning but it's gonna quickly become boring.
Tl:dr, you don't need to spend money on the game(s) and if you do you're the only one you can blame
