I have no problems with them wanting to make money. I have preordered most expansions when I actively play. In my opinion it was a little expensive at 50 euro, 80 is way too much. 50 is already a full AAA game. I think it's hard to argue that the effort that goes into a Hearthstone expansion is comparable to most full games. It's fair they want to be compensated for their efforts, I just don't understand why the compensation/effort invested should be so much higher for Hearthstone. Apart from the fact that they think they can charge that of course. I think they're wrong, and it's going to hurt them and the game in the long run.
I follow hearthstone tournaments pretty well, and if this theory were to be true I think we'd see a lot more random players finishing high. At every event there's a good amount of "no-names" attending, and some events have had over 100 participants iirc.
It might be an added factor of building a lineup that the pros have much more experience with, I'm not denying the strong presence of RNG.
