I am tired of PPL saying devs dont care about their game because that is just a BS lie of an argument that PPL use cause they have nothing to say. Would u spend years Working on a project/work if u didnt care about it? No. 

They did the change because they wanted PPL to PLAY the game mode, not just abuse a low lvl farm that wasnt intented to exist. Instead of being a negative Karen, how about u help find solutions ton make a positif impact. Or is that to hard?

 I can agree with that. But were they living under a rock for the past two weeks that they've fixed it just now? You do understand that people that didn't have as much time as all those that abused it are really far behind?

It's just a well-known mechanism used to get things kickstarted and get people hooked / feel committed. We've seen it at the start of WoW classic as well with rigged Scarlet Monastery raids and how they resolved it.  

The one thing to do with this game mode, actually with this entire company, is to ignore it hard.

I hope the best case scenario, that once you do every task of your owned mercs, Stranger would offer you tasks for mercs you dont own. That would be wonderful. But maybe too generous when you think of blizzard... :/

Worst case: Mysterious Stranger encounters stop happening, which would force players to keep campfire full to get 15 coins or smth else

Yup. Appearance rate of mysterious stranger is now drastically lowered. Imagine being able to farm coins for what you want. 
MUST... PROHIBIT...

Screw it, I'm out of this garbage.

As if mercenaries wasn't already rip off enough with useless coins etc., I noticed that after having completed 18 tasks on a couple of mercenaries they are no longer able to get new tasks. What does this mean for the camp fire when all tasks for all mercenaries are done? Which won't be too long now. And what happens at the mysterious stranger? Right now specific coins can be farmed there if you have 4 outstanding tasks. You can select coins for another party member. Will this stop because he can no longer give tasks?

Eventhough farming coins for legendaries like DIablo isn't the fastest in the world, trust me, coins soon become useless. Once a hero is maxed out there is no more use for them. Perhaps, in the distant future, who knows, but not now. Therefore you better spend coins asap.

EDIT: Once you have a Mercenary, you can get tasks for it, receive it as visitor, etc. You would be missing out on those things if you would not have the Mercenary. Therefore, the sooner the better.

It's a scam, illegal and I want my money back. My claim still stands.

 Then why are you on HearthPwn and not on the Blizzard support site getting a refund? We can't help you with any of this, we can just tell you what we know about this. Only you can contact Blizz and get a solution for this.

Why? Because word of illegal practice has to be put out there so people are aware and do not fall victim as well.

You are missing one important rule:

"Each Mercenaries Pack contains at least one Rare or better Mercenary Card until all Mercenary Cards are collected from that rarity tier."

https://us.shop.battle.net/en-us/product/hearthstone-mercenaries-packs

 It does not say that in the in-game shop, nor when clicking the info button, nor in any follow-up screen during the purchase. That is where I purchased, not in some other shop location. I would not have bought packs had I known that.

You cannot sell me something from your shop, deliver something else, and then say: oh but in some other remote location on the web we actually say that we sell something different than we just told you here. It's against the law. Again, if I had known I would not have bought the packs. It's a scam, illegal and I want my money back. My claim still stands.

I bought 20 packs to speed up collecting Mercenaries. The shop states, and I literally quote:
"Each Mercenary Pack includes one rare or better Mercenary, plus 4 other items that  can also include Mercenaries, Coins, or Cosmetic Skins."

Screenshot:
https://ibb.co/NL8g37f

I just opened a Mercenary Pack that had no Mercenary in it, but only coins. Not only that, 2 of those coins are completely useless, as I have the Mercenary already maxed out. Anyway, the pack had no Mercenary in it. Where do I get my money back, and where do I file complaint of this sales scam and demand my money back? It is against the law to say you sell something but deliver something else.

Are you talking about from packs or from bounties?

 Heck, it doesn't matter. Anything. Even PVP reward just gave me coins for 2 maxed out heroes. The coins are completely useless, meanwhile I need tons of coins for other heroes. It's a complete waste of time with regards to progress like this. As more and more heroes  get maxed out the waste of time gets greater and greater.

EDIT: Like this last bounty I just ran. Reward: 20x Xyrella, 10x Xyrella, 20x Xyrella, 15x Guff Runetotem. Xyrella is maxed out.. Meaning: 50/65 (~77%) of the rewards and time is just wasted.

So, I maxed out  a couple of heroes. While there is nothing to spend coin on, they still clutter the reward pool. Why on earth would anyone ever want to spend money to buy packs and risk buying nothingness? It is annoying to see another reward where 80% goes to the 1 hero, meaning more time wasted again and again and again. It sucks.

I read elsewhere that in future there might be something to spend those useless, superfluous coins on. "In future", "might be"... I was hoping maxed out heroes would leave the pool, or at least for the coins to be replaceable by something else. But nah,  a big downer once more. I do no longer feel compelled to continue playing, knowing more and more of my time spent to get coins will be useless (n terms of 0 progress). I play for the here and now, not for wasting time hoping in the distant future where there might be changed something. What are your thoughts?

EDIT: They also keep polluting the camp fire (visitors), meaning more useless coins, less usable things, less value of camp fire. Take my advise: postpone maxing heroes as long as possible if you value, well, value... Geez.

Hope that helps

I get periodic "Your Opponent" games, I don't think I've ever see myself as "You" - it usually happens if i had some sort of brief connectivity glitch.

I added the School Spirits after play testing, go check the original version, card for card minus one sense demons. And dw about my life thanks. I’m having a blast.

It’s all good, copy my deck. Your just spreading the word for me.

And similar is quite the euphemism here when it’s 29 out of 30 identical cards.

Your deck was created on the site today, mine was made before the expansion. And it’s common courtesy to give credit when u copy decks. Don’t beat around the bush.

Lol you created it after your comment to my deck, let’s not kid ourselves. (It says clearly created 8/7/20 so cut the bullshit would ya).

Well Mechathun Warlock and OTK Paladin were good while they lasted. Farewell combo decks. At least vs. Priest anyways.

Which is sad, because combo decks were keeping Priest decks in check.

I don't think that those cards will see play, glide is an outcast card and the 2/1 priest card doesn't really matter that much VS my T1 7 damage Pirate Warrior opening and other such decks.

I for one as a wild player consider not buying any pack past the 10 packs guaranteed legendary. This expansion brings nothing to the table for wild IMO. I think i'll get away with under 2k dust for the cards i need and maybe i'll be lucky and open Lightning Bloom in the 1st few packs

Seems like over the past few years, Blizzard has been making a very concerted effort to get absolutely none of my money.  Laying off 800 people while making a record profit.  The treatment of Blitzchung over Hong Kong.  The thing with Savjz got walked back, but was still inappropriate.

Are they allowed to invite (or not) whoever they wish to their invitational tournaments?  Sure.  I'm allowed to never spend another ****ing dime on Blizzard, and honestly, I'd encourage other folks to do the same.
