1 farmed game = 5 minutes on average?
win rate = 70% (casual)?
~= 3 hours and 34 minutes of farming per day to get 100 gold.

Where do I fit 3 hours and 34 minutes of farming per day? That's nearly 50% of a full working day spent every day on Hearthstone? To acquire 100 gold (approx $1.50 in game currency)!?

Lunacy. That's 43 cents per hour... I'm not slaving over that for the sole purpose of gold. Homeless people make more money per hour just sleeping on a street corner.


To put it into perspective:
Spend 463 hours grinding for 200 packs (equivalent of 11.5 work weeks) OR just over $200 USD for 200 packs (equivalent of 1 work day)

If even 2% of your time spent grinding felt like work, you could've spent that 2% of the 463 hours (8 hours of work) and earned $200 USD.

11.5 work weeks vs. 1 work day... :-/


you realise hearthstone is a game right?
games are supposed to provide enjoyment, not value
if you want to maximum gold potential you can get, the best solution is to play arena and be good at it, constructed doesnt provide nearly as much

Your comprehension level is beyond low.

yes it seems obvious for most people (i guess)
but since you compare the "value" you earn playing the game and the money you earn begging in the street, the game doesnt seem to provide you enjoyment...

My original point was that with 3 major expansions this year, F2P isn't feasible.

A response to me was: You can grind 100 gold per day, it's doable.

My response back was: Grinding 100 gold per day isn't worth it. It's not fun. It takes too much time. You could just enjoy the game, and 1 working day would pay for the grinding anyways.

Then you stepped in with your retarded drivel.

I said I will play constructed when I run out of gold from playing arena and get max packs before crafting cards, but arena seems really easy right now and my gold is going up not down :lol: around 1200 gold from arena and quests.. maybe one day

Flower rouge with arcane giant combo is OP.


Flower Rogue was the first deck I tried this expansion

I wish there was more spell damage cards in the game
With Azure gone the only decent one is thalnos

Tried Malygos with it

Or just get a job.
Work a single day, even on minimum wage, and buy 50 packs.

Then make whatever deck you want

yea i didnt like the malygos version, i feel its unstable without thaurissan/pillager, you cant make a regular high burst
i really like the giants version (the deck i've played the most by far for now), trying out the leeroy version atm but i dont like it as much as the giants one

As much as he's usually wrong, I agree with Canadian here. Cause he said how if even 2% of the play feels like work (which it for sure will), then you're better off just spending $$.

Although for some people, going F2P is part of the fun and part of the challenge.
