Hearthstone Price Changes Coming to Europe
Hearthstone goodies are about to get more expensive in Europe to "align with local and regional market conditions". These new prices go live on the 22 of March, before the new expansion goes live in April. We're assuming there will be no change to the current Un'Goro pre-order purchase and recommend getting in on that while you can.

If you have to meet the "market conditions", make it 0 euros for Bulgaria, not more expensive, lmao
Oh good heavens! we must align with local and regional market conditions! thanks blizz i was losing sleep at night over that one! it's got nothing to do with being complete money hungry wh*res! i could understand a small price rise but that's just f*cking outrageous! well done for spitting in the face of your loyal customers.
How about they prove they can actually fix the meta before deciding we should give them more money?
if you're reading this, move along to other card games
nothing to see here anymore
... also it's just a giant slap to the face for being a loyal player and customer for years....until now
you can only slap your fans and supporters for so long until they turn against you and never come back
Assuming that their decision is actually based on hard data and made by someone who has studied economics, I would love to see that data on "market conditions". It's well known that free-to-play games make most of their money from so-called "whales", i.e. players who spend crazy amounts of money. For this price increase to make economic sense Blizzard's data has to show that their whales have not reached their spending limits and that their spending with the increased price will more than make up for the loss of business from the small fish. Maybe a dozen oil billionaires are responsible for 90% of Hearthstone's sales? This would also account for the fact that Blizzard cares so little about complaints from the community.
Same whales who donate $2600 to some hot twitch grills xD.... Even the best streamers/PRO players with like 20k viewers have their highest donation usually be $400 or so. Then you go to some hot twitch grills channel with 500-1000 viewers and their highest donation is $2000-$3000. ( I wasnt only talking about HS)
I mean its their money which they choose to spend, none of my business, reguarding buying cards. If you buy a lot of packs like 100+, you need to play the game a lot. Otherwise it's thrown away money. But if you play a lot, you probably saved up a lot of gold to buy more packs so you spend less money. I play quite a lot, and saved up 6.8k. Would be more if didnt try arena challenge this month :P.
So i dont get why people would buy like 700 packs.
I don't have much time to play and hang around at ranks 20-15 during seasons. On the other hand, I like to play all classes, both wild and standard, and like to collect all cards (not golden). I mostly like to play with TotalBiscuit/Crendor type "30 legendaries" decks or other similar theme decks, although I sometimes use the "metadecks" for kicks.
With about 2000 gold and some 1000 dust collected between expansions, I have been using money to get the cards in expansions. I only did maybe 2-3 quests per week. I liked to use my limited playing time with decks that I wanted to play with instead. I did not play arena at all.
The collection aspect was very important for me, but as Blizz now went from 2 to 3 expansions, getting the cards would have been harder. Now with price increase... yeah, If I will be playing, I will stick to wild and use my existing cards, with some boosters bought with quest gold once in a while.
Haven't spent a single penny on this game and I'm doing just fine, it's actually more fun to be f2p then it is to pay money on the game
I expected to see the fall in prices because we'll start having 3 expansions from this year but too much is too much. This is just a nail in the coffin, not spending a single cent on this game anymore and who didn't understand that HS Team is impotent money hungry piece of shit by now, no offense, but you're retarded zombie.
Meanwhile in other games like Shadowverse we're getting so many free packs that we need to use a ''skip'' button for them...
I used to love Hearthstone, but it seems like Blizzard just don't want it to be a good game anymore...
In case anyone else wants to try some other card games (I've tried all of these):
Gwent.
Magic Duels.
The Elder Scrolls: Legends.
Eternal.
Shadowverse. (my current favorit)
Faeria.
Duelyst.
Hex.
Magic the gathering :)
Magic/Pokemon > YGO > Every single card game.
Dude, the problem is that there are way too many CCGs if you want to play all of them... :( I barely have time to do HS, Shadwoverse and TES:L daily quests... I used to play Duelyst and a bit of Hex (I really liked the fact that there's an awesome pve content), but that's just to many to keep up with...
DansGame
Well, if we take 2 times 15 packs then 7 packs in euros, in cost 50 euros for 42 packs
If we take 40 packs, it cost 50 euros
Never skip Math again.
15+15+7= 37 packs
It seems that you are not very good at calculating lethals.
2x15+7=42? Wtf?!
O k - that's it for me in Hearthstone.
I play since BETA November 2013.
You can flame me, but until today I paid (lots of them with Amazon Coins etc.) the following (I am a German statistic fan)
-->
338 Classic Packs = 384,40 €
+ 120 GvG Packs= 125,98 €
+ 150 TGT Packs = 142,66 €
+ 303 WotG Packs = 240,12 €
+ 202 MSoG Packs = 107,21 €
+ some money for adventures, arena, heroskins etc. = 1065,17 € until today.
With the Packs I bought by quests and Ingame Gold I've bought 2099 Packs until now.
With the upcoming 3 Expansions this year with~130 Cards each it was obvious, that I have to almost double my investments, to have the same card quality/Goldcards possible, which I already neglected.
I recognized, that with this 3 expansions with ~130 Cards each HEarthstone has NO FUTURE as Free to play game - 3 of my long time HS playing clan members quit allready after the announcement.
I had/"have" the hope, that they will make several prize-/questmodel changes (more Gold for daily quests - more ReleaseQuests + free packs etc. ) to compensate for this - to make it still possible, to play HS as F2P.
With the NEws written up above it's more then clear where Blizzard wants to go.
No new players , no Free to play, just milk old players/paying players.
So - not with me anymore, beside the fact like Lifecoach1981 said that HS is to unskilly/repetetive and casual. But this prizemodel/releasemodel is not casual anymmore - so Blizzard could also make a way more skilly/complex game ?
I am honest, I will order maybe the Pre-Order offer of Un'Goro - that's it. And if I see even more of this Bull_shi_t direction I am totally off.
It's enough ...
I hope liek some other people written here, some people will do the same and we (the community) pays it back to Blizzard; so they have to reconsider this decisions.
Don't buy more packs !!! Stop this shi_i_t direction. After 2 expansions they will recognize it at the latest and HAVE TO CHANGE it then.
