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.

Greedy as f
Time to teach blizzard a lesson and thats why I am not willing to spend another cent on this game. I will just play F2P and with 40K Dust and 5k gold i will get all the cards i need anyway.
It is sad, but unfortunately it was expected :(
When Hearthstone was released ratio USD:EUR was like 1.4:1 ... now it's almost 1:1.
Blizzard is on stock market and it earns in USD ... so they need to show investors that they still make cash ...
Problem is, that if someday $:€ will again be 1.4:1 then we won't see price drop :(
Really not happy with this change, but not surprised as well :(
Well i guess its fine then, this ratio was kinda what i was looking for to justify the price increase. Blizz should try and find a way to assuage acts like these with good information like yours.
Hahah I am so glad I stopped playing this game. Seriously guys you'll be better off playing a real TCG with those new prices. There's no way any sane person would spend that type of money on a casual game like Hearthstone.
If you win 44,99€.
Then you increase cost to 49,99€
People don't want to buy anymore so you gain now 0€
You lose 44,99€.
How can they think this will bring them more money?
Because there will always be people buying packs no matter what
that would be true if packs actually would cost something to make, but they dont
Already stop playing need tons of legends for fundecks but stull cheapest deck will deatroy you or u can never control idol decks never paid money and will never playing gwent theese days and having gfun instead of rage
I tought they were lowering the prices when I saw this , But... I don't know what to say.
Why would they do this ?
Greedy retards - this is Team 5. Heartshtone ALREADY WAS INSANELY EXPENSIVE, especially for the low-quality, low-value that it provides.
50 EUR for packs?!? From which everything is RNG and nothing is guaranteed?!? Retards! For 50 EUR you buy GTA5, FIFA17, Far Cry, etc. - huge games with billions of investment, amazing graphics, and ton of replayability.
You are just a bunch of greedy fucks!
It was already unlikely that I was ever going to pay for this game again but this just seals the deal.
We now have to pay 70,- for 60 packs ,which doesn't even get you half of all cards from a new expansion. That's 10,- more than the price of any 'blockbuster' game at first release, like The Witcher 3 for example...
And the 'it's a f2p game' argument is not valid anymore either. It's nearly impossible to keep up with 3 expansions a year without spending anything.
If you just buy whole expansion (including legendaries), you need usually the pre-order set and four 60pack sets. And probably still need to spend around 500-1000 gold for extra boosters and preferably have some extra dust available as well from the start.
If you can live with only few legendaries and can miss some epics, then you could survive with pre-pack and two 60 pack sets.
You get about 80 free packs per expansion from quests and bonus packs upon release. If you buy 50+60+60, you'll have everything but a few terrible legendary cards.
Free to pay to win !
Time to nerf some quests - 40g per day is to much for us F2P players...
well, BBrode forgot to sing that in his song -_-
Doesnt matter the market condition. The fact is you r still paying for something virtual, which blizzard costs 0 $ to "make" the pack. Not to mention horrible legendary % drop and the packs you actually need and pay to get full set.
This said, i definetly wont be spending any more money on Blizz, and i prolly spend over a couple of hundred $ already.
Yeah it's true.. really annoying.. it's not like making packs cost them anything at all, or that they don't earn enough via HS.. this is just being greedy and shows the true nature (as if not everybody already knew) of the HS team (or blizzard as a whole).. overwatch costs 39 euro.. a FULL game (really good one at it too) and for a bunch of cards you pay more.. MEH.. bring back the adventures..
You know it's not the HS team that makes financial decision in Blizzard right? Ben Brode probably has no say in what a pack should cost.
