Curious New Bundle on Store - Dynamic Bundle Offer, Different For Everyone
Blizzard did something curious today, by putting up a new Bundle on the ingame and online store. That's not that unusual of course, but for the first time it seems people are not getting the same bundle offered. Some people are getting a 35 pack Bundle with 2 Legendaries from Madness at the Darkmoon Faire for 30 dollars or euros, some people are getting a Bundle with only 20 packs and 2 Legendaries for 20 dollars or euros. There's also reports about people getting 25 packs and only 1 legendary and even people getting a Bundle for Wild packs!
Blizzard's only reaction to this so far has been a Reddit comment:
Quote from BlizzardHi there! We’re testing some new types of offers in our shop, which will cause some users to see different offers. This is intended! Be sure to check the in-game shop and the web shop to see any offers available to you.
What this means for the future of Bundles and the equality in offers remains to be seen, but for now it will at least be interesting to know which offer people got, so, if you can and want, let us know in the comments!
... uh-huh. tell me another one.
I would preffer to see more such bundles with golden legendaries in future. Not a bad idea a flexible bundle for every player, but for one who want a golden collection it would be much more atractive if instead of 2 normal legendary, receive 1 golden.
Morons. I would have bought all the bundles.
Don't understand the downvotes - this cheered me up. I'm assuming sarcasm
I'm happy even if only one person gets it ;)
Another bundle these days? How surprising... Fortunatelly I got plenty of cards by playing before rewamp so don’t need to buy resources with money now.
got the 10$ bundle, and then the 20$ bundle from the store. for 3 legendaries and 3 packs. 4200 dust for 30$ is a good price on this expensive game better that any other bundle.
Also if they keep bundles like this I might rethink about prepurchases where you get worse value for your money 40$ for 45 packs and 1 legendary ( 3 legendaries and 9 epics on average) vs 30$ for in average 4.5 legendaries...
How do you mean 4200 dust? You got some golden legendaries?
average 100 dust per pack so 3000 and 400 dust per legendary so another 1200
I wonder if the offer you get depends on how many legendaries from the expansion you have.
For example, if you have all of them, do you have the "1 legendary only" bundle, meanwhile those with only few legendaries get the 3 legendaries one ?
I personnaly lack only 4-5 legendaries of the expansion and i had the 2 legendaries bundle for exemple.
It would seems like a really good idea if it's that way !
I got the 2 legendarys 20 $ offer and own all DMF cards. So there is no logic :) I would buy the wild pack :)
The company says: “Spend even more money please. Why not?”
No this is not the right direction by giving different offer with different advantage for each player..
I can understand if the offer is different by matching with the player habits and collection, like wild bundle for wild player, golden bundle for player with complete collection, and so on..
But it wasn't. And the offer has different bundle/leg in total with the same price too??
I think they really want hearthstone to step away from esports aren't they? Because giving esports players different advantage through card collection progression can be categorized as a discrimination. That's not fair.
2 legendaries 20 packs for 20€.. ill pass this one thank you very much :D i did bought the miniset with money cause it was a great deal.. this ? not much..
Isn't this price discrimination?
I got offered 2 legendaries and 35 packs for $30 USD. I admittedly have spent quite a bit in the past, but with a lot of the recent stuff that has been happening (especially the battle pass and the tiller combo that's been plaguing wild lately), I'm probably going to pass on this one.
I have 1 legendary missing from darkmoon faire, yet get a bundle with 2 legendaries...
Wtf Blizzard, not buying that one. Would have bought a cheaper one with 1 legendary, though.
So the algorithm to determine which bundle is offered is either completely random, or takes somwthing like spending habits into account. But likely not your collection status.
I got the 35 packs + 2 Legendaries all from Darkmoon Faire for $30.
It's interesting because I already got the full set so it is mainly pointless unless I want to stock up on more dust + golden cards. Considering that I still want a full Golden Mage deck for Wild at some point, it is a little tempting but, otherwise, it has little to no value to me.
Same for $29.99 US.
Using players as guinea pigs to test what bundle deals sell more XD
