There are no stupid questions, if they are honestly meant and based on unknowledge, instead of trolling.

I am German and I am really a fan of the Brexit. Not because I don't like the U.K. or the people, but because this EU constitution and the politicians are way more greedy than Blizzard is right now (what is not easy).

Europe's economy will go down even a lot more, because of EuroBonds and plutocraty systems.

Political actress of the establishment Merkel backstabs Germany and with it the european continent flooded by occupants, invadors and muslims, that are simply milking our welfare system and in over 80 % no real refugees will destablize central europe.

This is done on purpose by politicians, there are many proofs - just with the endgoal to create a policestate and give up individual right to seemingly more security.
What a fake.

All this leads to less wealth of the average citizen and NO MORE PACKS.
And Blizzard also seems to follow this punishing plan from the other side now.

Blizzard reveals their true evil face I guess - New World Order under Activison hands °_°

Blizzard WAS great until Activision took them over. Since then their greed/paymentmodels >> creativity/community orientated  image started to go down !
And HS isn'T great either. Just too repetetive/casual.
No more (easy to learn) hard to master.

The reason is, EU prizes get much higher to decrease the player pool in EU, so the chances are more likely US can strike back at Blizzcon :-P.

That's what I will do, too.
Buy the Un'Goro pre-order
(I have all card backs beside 'Flame of Dalaran and the 2 ProGamerbacks - can't let this one out, but if I will ever miss one or if the game/prizemodel will even more fall in the abyss I will shit on this , too)
of my last amazon coins and buy about 120 Packs from my 14 000 InGameGold right now.

And from this point on f2p !
If they will decrease prizes again or the amount of cards per year I maybe will invest again to get more golden, but I don't think so.
If you started at one time seeing this a bit more relaxed, you won't come back I guess.

And if the game stays at the same incomplex/repetetive casual status i will then quit completely !

O k - that's it for me in Hearthstone.

I play since BETA November 2013.
You can flame me, but until today I paid (lots of them with Amazon Coins etc.)  the following (I am a German statistic fan)
-->
338 Classic Packs = 384,40 €
+ 120 GvG Packs= 125,98 €
+ 150 TGT Packs = 142,66 €
+ 303 WotG Packs = 240,12 €
+ 202 MSoG Packs = 107,21 €

+ some money for adventures, arena, heroskins etc. = 1065,17 € until today.

With the Packs I bought by quests and Ingame Gold I've bought 2099 Packs until now.

With the upcoming 3 Expansions this year with~130 Cards each it was obvious, that I have to almost double my investments, to have the same card quality/Goldcards possible, which I already neglected.

I recognized, that with this 3 expansions with ~130 Cards each HEarthstone has NO FUTURE as Free to play game - 3 of my long time HS playing clan members quit allready after the announcement.

I had/"have" the hope, that they will make several prize-/questmodel changes (more Gold for daily quests - more ReleaseQuests + free packs etc. ) to compensate for this - to make it still possible, to play HS as F2P.

With the NEws written up above it's more then clear where Blizzard wants to go.

No new players , no Free to play, just milk old players/paying players.

So - not with me anymore, beside the fact like Lifecoach1981 said that HS is to unskilly/repetetive and casual. But this prizemodel/releasemodel is not casual anymmore - so Blizzard could also make a way more skilly/complex game ?

I am honest, I will order maybe the Pre-Order offer of Un'Goro - that's it. And if I see even more of this Bull_shi_t direction I am totally off.

It's enough ...


I hope liek some other people written here, some people will do the same and we (the community) pays it back to Blizzard; so they have to reconsider this decisions.

Don't buy more packs !!! Stop this shi_i_t direction. After 2 expansions they will recognize it at the latest and HAVE TO CHANGE it then.

Because then you have 2 golden ones instead of 2 normal for free... ?

Rework the laddersystem (for example just lose 5 ranks at the end of your season from highest rank of the season before) and add Statistics to your account over all seasons !
Make the disentchanting value of (golden) cards not so low ...

Let Reno, Sir finley + Bran in Standard card pool - so put them in the classic card pool maybe °_o.

ANd let me get rewards for my 2nd Rank 5 (in WILD) also !!!

Quote from Fluxflashor>>

[...] Mejsik was able to pilot this deck from rank 16 to Legend winning 75 games to only 34 losses in 10 hours. [...]

You can't get to Legend from Rank 16 with +41 wins in just 75 games ... . Don't lie !

Wipe the ban away, give him the prize money, apologize for how they acted.

Your absolutely transparent damage control does not derail from the fact that you have shown your cards Blizzard, you bend the knee to a country rife with Human-Rights atrocities. Your actions taken against Blitzchung have had rippling effects across the community and I along with many others have no love or loyalty in my heart for the shell of a company you call Blizzard  anymore.

So Blizzard decided to punish a player for being political by appeasing a political threat from another country in an attempt to avoid a controversy. 

Nicely done.

He hasn't "walked away." He has withdrawn from casting Grandmasters. He still plays, he still streams, and he still produces content. He is still posting YouTube videos and making money from Hearthstone videos that already existed.

It's entirely possible that casting Grandmasters would have been a financial loss for him, given that it took a big chunk out of his streaming schedule.

I applaud his speaking out, but let's not pretend it's some kind of grand sacrifice.

It's called objective journalism. I know the concept may be unfamiliar to kids these days, but in remaining neutral, Hearthpwn is acting with integrity and wisdom.

In reporting the plain facts of the matter without bias, they make space for their readers to make their own informed decisions.

@Adusak90 Yes there are laws in our world, but Blitzchungs case was in the line of someone crossing the street with the lights on " don’t walk , or Red like here in eu ( green= go , red = stop) and doing so for a good cause. ( Like helping a Granny who fell down fe.) 

I doubt any Police officer would have stepped in to punish you for violating the law.....

Where other people got 1 or 2 months of penalization, he got an entire year, can't compete in the grand master so he cant be the world champion, and the money backpaw. Yes it was an overkill of punishment

I miss the times when an untimely announcement of a Diablo mobile game was the worst thing Blizzard could pull off. This is a whole new level of low.

Quote from Kalidanze >>

 Chi.na is not the "west". The concept of democracy is a (modern) concept of the west. Chin.as way is another way, and we have accept it. The "demonstrants" in Hon.gKo.ng doing riots and violents, da that in the U S A and you get a bullet from pol.ice officer.

"Communism" is a (modern) concept of the west. China's way is not another way - it's a European political philosophy, imposed with enormous violence upon the people of China. No one has to "accept" it.
