Nonsense, just nonsense. They're clearly trying to make the game more f2p, by selling more and more cosmetics. The pass is just cosmestics, the xp boost is just a small bonus to get the gold faster, not get more gold. You've said it yourself you already reached lvl 20. IN A 150 LVL TRACK. ON DAY ONE, ON A TRACK YOU HAVE 4 MONTHS TO COMPLETE...! Of course it's going to take longer as you go higher, congrats you discovered fire. Not to mention that now you get way more gold. With the old system, by gaining 80 gold average every day (and you know I am bumping this number a bit) you could get 2400 a month. 9600 in 4 months. Now by the time you reach 150 you will have gotten 20k (20100 to be exact). On top of that, you get packs and arena tickets. They've actually doubled the ammount of gold you can gain every expansion cycle and you are still complaining. Jesus man just quit the game already if you hate it this much.
