xskarma posted a message on Introducing the Core Set, Classic Format, Legacy Set & More!Posted in: NewsWith Classic, Wild and Standard all having Ranked Ladder and All having the same rewards, I feel Blizz should introduce pack tokens instead of actual card packs in the reward box, and make the tokens be able to buy any card pack you want. Do it for Tavern Brawl and Arena and everything else too.
That way if you want classic packs to compete in Classic, you can, and if you want Boomsday packs to compete in Wild, you can, and if you want the latest expansion packs to compete in Standard, you can.
Being force fed Standard packs you have little use for, especially in Classic and Wild, is kind of silly.

elbows posted a message on Introducing the Core Set, Classic Format, Legacy Set & More!Posted in: NewsWait, explicitly adding the ability to play the game as it was in 2014 is the change that makes it different from what you liked in 2014? I don't follow.

hillandder posted a message on Introducing the Core Set, Classic Format, Legacy Set & More!Posted in: NewsThat is necessary and I hope they balance better the cards than before, some classes like rogue, mage and warrior have great classic sets at the same time paladin and shaman have awful ones and always depending in broken expansion cards to be relevant.

Thanatos2k posted a message on Introducing the Core Set, Classic Format, Legacy Set & More!Posted in: NewsThis seems necessary. We'll have to see what ends up being in their core set. It could be very good or very bad for the game going forward. This is their chance to fix things, we'll see if they do.

Classic mode... It isn't WoW, Blizzard. I think it will be a dead mode in a month or two. Who needs a mode with a permanent meta?I think you underestimate how much some people long for the good old days and want to relive it and how much some people want to experience the old days like they used to be.
I'll grant you though, it will have the same problem that Classic has: things have been figured out, so the decks that are super good will be played from day 1. There will be little to no experimenting. People just know already.
Still, going to be pretty fun to take Miracle Rogue with unnerfed Edwin and unnerfed Leeroy for a spin. :D

Why give them weeks when we can clearly calculate that the system is worse?

Oh christ who the fuck cares about these complains posts about the fight? Stick to playing the game for crying out loud. This place has descended into some sort of complaing club with children complaining about the real people who stand up and fight for whats right.
Complain or dont complain, its up to you. If this place isn't for you, do something else, or atleast keep all your petty complaining to one thread.

His math: link
He assumes a player play the game an hour a day on average, yet only completes 75% of the dailies. In reality, if you play an hour a day on average it would be closer to 100% of the daily. We can keep the 75% of the weekly quests, since this player might not play every game or be good enough to complete every game modes weekly quests. This player would in the old system get 55 gold an average from dailies and 10-20 gold every hour for playing, depending on fast or slow decks and winrate. So (55 + 15) * 120 = 8400 gold in the old system.
Another assumption is that the player gets 400 xp per hour, which is the max for in match hour. In reality it is closer to 300-350 xp per hour on average. The 1 hour a day player will not play ranked exclusively, so lets say he gets 300 xp per real hour
A third assumption is the xp from achievements. For the duels achievements he assumes that this player, which might be a standard player, will get 11 wins in duels, since 11 wins gives you 9500 xp. I would instead assume that a player that plays for 1 hour a day will probably get around 3 wins, which is 2700 xp.
For the darkmoon achievements his assumption is also wrong. Many of the achievments are tied to legendaries. This player we base the math upon has around 8400 * 0.75 = 6300 gold, since the expansion ends quite early. So this player would have around 3 darkmoon legendaries. Thus I'd estimate he earns half the darkmoon achievements. 12500 * 0.5 is 6250 xp.
Thus the complete math is:
Daily quests: 120 days * 100% * 900 xp = 108000 xp
Weekly quests: 17 weeks * 75% * (2500 + 1750 + 1750) xp = 76500 xp
Playtime: 120 days * 1 hour * 300 xp = 36000 xp
Duels achievments: 850 xp + 900 xp + 950 xp = 2700 xp
Darkmoon achievements: 50% * 12500 xp = 6250 xp
Total xp = 108000 + 76500 + 36000 + 2700 + 6250 = 229450 xp
The first 50 levels requires 196200 xp.
This player would get to level 58, which is as celestelon says. He would get 5400 gold + 16 packs, 2 arena/duel tickets, 2 legendaries and 1 epic card. This is way worse than the 8400 gold he usually gets.

Blizzard has seriosly screwed us

Exactly. Blizzard clearly said we should earn slightly more gold, and also get non-gold, in almost all cases. The only one in the scenario in the linked thread that earns more gold is the streamer.

Iksar said: Assuming you play the same amount and have the same quest completion rate, you shouldn't earn less gold or non-gold in the new system. In nearly all circumstances you should be earning slightly more gold and more non-gold (packs, etc).

Hope we soon get an update on the new reward system since Blizzard LIED to us about it.

He said tavern pass, not battleground perks
1
Actually we don't know much, since the battlepass they showed was not finalized and thus might be completely different.

You probably haven't downloaded the extra assets that includes golden cards and animations
