That these "exclusive" bundles are more expensive and more frequent is a sign that Blizzard's economical interests are increasing exponentially...
It is pure greed, do not try to find excuses

Greedy Bli$$ard at its prime. Marvellous.

This is a recurring theme that has been explained again and again ad nauseam...
It has already been shown that, according to an Activision patent used in every Blizzard game with the simple objective of increasing revenue, the matchmaking and everything that should be random in the game is in fact rigged, there is nothing truly random in Hearthstone, but everything is performed by an algorithm that, for example, automatically chooses your opponent based on your winrate and the type of deck and cards you are going to play with, or even is able to alter the odds of drawing a certain card at a certain time or chooses the best or worst option from a pool as it deems appropriate.
But why? What is the reason for this algorithm? It is very simple: when you go to play a game, the algorithm used by Blizzard has already decided beforehand whether you should win or lose that game: your fate is already sealed. According to Blizzard, in theory, this ensures the ideal 50% winrate every time for everyone.
This video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T658vTvoRs clearly explain what this patent consists of and you also have at your disposal this thread where the matter is discussed: https://www.hearthpwn.com/forums/hearthstone-general/general-discussion/246232-an-interesting-video or this more recent one: https://www.hearthpwn.com/forums/hearthstone-general/general-discussion/247893-hs-matchmaking-is-biased-is-that-good
The problem are the usual fanboys who refuse to believe the evidence and charge against it, trying to make it appear that everything is our imagination, a coincidence, that the holy Blizzard would never put its financial interests first over the interests of its players.

Imagine healing yourself completely for just 6 mana!! And with a decent body as a gift!! And it being a neutral card!! That is an outrage and needs to be nerfed ASAP!!
Well, many people consider Refreshing Spring Water an outrage because it allows you to draw 2 cards at no cost... however, they don't seem to be aware that this is only true if your deck is built in a specifically restrictive way (spells only, without minions). So why do they simplify it so much? I'll tell you: because those people are clearly biased.
By that rule of three, I guess those people also considered Reno Jackson an outrage and wanted it to be nerfed/destroyed back then... But what about its restriction of unrepeated cards in the deck? Silly, no one has repeated cards in their deck anymore, just like mages don't have minions in their decks either.
Anyway, the data shows that Refreshing Spring Water is not a problem, in fact, Blizzard has recently said that they have no intention of changing anything about it.
You have oversized a non-existent problem. All these overreacted complaints fall on deaf ears because they just aren't real. Don't insist, move on.

Do not be delusional: there are exclusivities that will NEVER be violated, certain card backs or heroes will NEVER be sold for gold...
Obviously, I know that something cosmetic like a hero or a card back has no real influence on the game itself, but the fact that some exclusivities are destroyed while others are not is a serious blow to the game's customers: it shows that there are first class clients and exclusivities and second class clients and exclusivities.
But hey, you are the typical conformist... that the big multinational (sorry, I meant small indie company) do whatever it wants, we only have permission to see, hear and pay... Not a complaint or a single reproach is allowed, at the end of the day, they are perfect, they are never wrong and we have to be very grateful because they allow us to serve them homage and kiss their feet as they do everything for our good.
They piss in your face and you don't mind and smile because you think it's raining.

Okay then, let's remove any kind of exclusivity after a while!!
When will I be able to buy the card back of my avatar with gold? Or the card back this news is about?
Do you seriously see feasible, reasonable and logical to sell the Esports Card Back for Masters Tour Event for a few hundred gold? Not at all, right?
I reiterate again: there are first class clients and exclusivities and second class clients and exclusivities

Well, not only there are card backs that only the elite of the elite can get... there are even card backs (that of my avatar) that are only available to people who are from a single specific country out of the hundreds that exist in the world (you can already imagine what country it is).
But nonetheless those exclusivities are not for everyone:
For instance, I have all the monthly card backs that show my loyalty to the game from day one... however Blizzard spits in my face by selling those card backs for a symbolic amount of gold to everyone regardless of their seniority in the game. Exclusivity of seniority gone.
Or for example, Blizzard also spits in the faces of those who spent real money on a pre-purchase to receive an exclusive card back or hero, and now they see how those card backs and heroes are also sold to everyone for a symbolic amount of gold. Exclusivity for pre-purchasing gone.
When will I be able to buy the card back of my avatar with gold? Or the card back this news is about? Something tells me that never ever. There are sacred exclusivities and others that are not so much...
It is clear that there are first class clients and exclusivities and second class clients and exclusivities.

Any answer from Blizzard on why this hero is not available with gold like all other previous heroes?
Especially shocking is the comparison with Medivh, which was launched in the same way and on the same date as Alleria and Magni but was nonetheless able to be purchased with gold a couple of weeks ago.

No way of knowing for how long we've watched the stream ...
No notification of winning a pack ...
The packs can take up to 48 hours to be delivered ...
I honestly prefer Twitch to YouTube ...
Seriously, how do we know then if we have already met the requirements to receive the packs? Are we supposed to have faith that YouTube has counted our watching hours correctly? Should we pray that in a couple of days we get something by chance?
It is impossible to know if YouTube has correctly counted the hours we have been watching ... For example, me myself have also been watching the streaming for 6 hours, however, I don't know if YouTube has taken note of that time or not.
Also, perhaps it's possible for YouTube to know if we are really watching the streaming "in person" or not, so that if we have the streaming in a background window or in another tab YouTube may not be counting any watching time at all ...
Another danger is that if we are not watching the streaming on live, YouTube does not register any watching time, and this is something annoying on YouTube: if we suffer a problem with our Internet connection (even for just a microsecond), the stream pauses itself so that we do not miss anything, going automatically from playing it "on live" to "recorded/delayed" without we even realize, and therefore not computing any watching time from that moment on ...

Another danger is what happened to me this morning: streaming suffered a micro cut for a moment due to a problem with my connection and, without my realizing it, the streaming automatically went from playing it "live" to "recorded/delayed" (so that I would not have any interruption during the course of the game and I would not miss anything), obviously not computing any time from that moment on (since if we are not watching the streaming on live, YouTube do not register any watching time)
